Any company with local revenue of over $100 million and world wide revenue of nearly a billion should just not be eligible for tax breaks. It's really just that simple. Frankly just remove tax breaks completely and make the whole syste

You'd need to have been living on a different planet to think that the US is benign. Relatively benign to their own citizens but far and away the most globally antagonistic country over the last 50 years. The list of wars and intervent

It looks good except for a few standout things. The reflection of the cube in the stapler is too sharp, like a perfect mirror finish. The book in the background seems to lack and sort of ambient occlusion. Still a good scene, it's the

The thing is that the gulf between CT and other branches of math is also there. CT maybe be generally capable of specifying any given problem but the further you branch away from it the more convenient it is for individuals to use a more do

It wasn't about lack of industrial know how, it was the policy of Autarky. The Nazi regime literally starved itself of essential manufacturing and war time resources. They knew for example that they only had enough oil, with the limite

Of course bad fathers are mentioned. Bad male behavior is called out all the time usually with adjectives such as toxic, aggressive or predatory. And in many cases the default is to assume a man is bad and then wait to see if it's oth

Thank God for this, anytime I've had to use a touch screen while driving I've felt it's stolen so much of my visual attention that it's amazing I don't hit something. In contrast a physical knob can be used purely b

This. It's my biggest peave that FP advocacy is now so wrapped up in Haskell and allusion of category theory based enlightenment. It sometimes feels a little like some of the old schools template shenanigans you could get up with C++,

That was my feeling as well. There may be some gems in there but so much of it comes with such political overtones that it's hard to read without becoming increasingly cynical.

Why, they wasted months evaluating with an obsession for statically typed languages that have so far not produced anything more quickly or markedly better than that which others are producing with less pedantic languages.

Imo mongo tried to change the rules of the game to be in their favor and AWS reacted in their best long term interests. And whether or not you like it that's fair, AWS were not in breach of the original software contract.

Not really sure how it shows that at. Sexual differentiation is not exactly diverse at all. Genetics are complicated I'd give you that and pretty amazing that it works as it does. Though there can be complications as in this case.

And yet after 30+ years no one had adequately managed to replace it. God help us if it's one of those json based abominations. My main complaint with sql is that it can be somewhat difficult top make DRY.
