I would think you could switch your average legacy ROR implementation to a newly coded system on just about any other platform and also come out way ahead on resource requirements. For instance, they could have gone with .net and gotten nea

I've used Edge in the past to bridge .NET to Node and it worked great. Glad to see its still being worked on.

The ACA already forces every US citizen to buy a product from a private company. This isn't much different. The Supreme Court has already upheld this as a "tax", so expect the same result.

Does anyone here use Jet.com? Not "have you ever used it?", but do you use it religiously like I use Amazon.com.

I don't have these, but I do have a cheap pair of wireless around-the-neck kind. Even those work well. But the main thing that no one but apple seems to get is the "recharge story". It's obnoxious to have to plug these t

It's probably a problem with the setup of your Android emulator. I had the same issue and had some more installations and config work to do before it worked.

Haha, don't try to pull that one here. When there's less ice it's global warming, when there's more ice it's climate change. Get on board.

"As a broader question, do you have a specific use case for having an empty string in an AttributeValue?" Can anyone explain to me why this isn't a bizarre question? They can't imagine a use-case for empty strings on

Hmm, I would draw the line at adults spending their own money however they legally pleased. It's not moral to dictate how another's earnings should be spent. That's the opposite of moral.

I think it could be argued the other way around. The point he was making, of which there are many examples, is that these jobs are better than no job at all. You can be "empathetic" by pushing for higher minimum wages, but your e

Looks really cool. Hope you guys nail it. I'm hoping to see more and more e-ink offerings. For myself, I would like a 50" curved e-ink monitor for work, black and white is fine. I know e-ink has terrible refresh rates, but I'

I would love to live in your bubble. Checkouts in my area are either super slow self checkout machines or done by a super slow unmotivated clerk. I could do without either.

Probably as much as I would pay for a website that could do the same thing. How much is wordpress?

"In short, it lets us say: enough already. Fuck work." I feel like that's pretty clear. You're right though, it does contradict my "ideology". I'm willing to be enlightened though but there were no ration

Forget the word "job" and instead use the word "value" to understand just how silly this idea is. What he's saying is that no one needs to do anything of value anymore. You know, like the guy who built the house you

Judging by the down votes you must be wrong. Welfare is indeed fairy money.

I think if we just made everyone poor then no one could afford things that use gas and electricity. Then we could all live in huts and eat tree bark and berries. There are a few steps to make this vision a reality. First, take everything aw

I think that makes perfect sense. No one is going to want a book of Apple product pictures EXCEPT those who will pay just about anything to get it.

Senseful isn't a word, but there is hate that makes complete sense. Thus, the phrase senseless hate. If someone were to murder a family member of mine I would hate them and that would make sense, would it not?

Equal in terms of generating fear, yes. In terms of causing extinction level events, no.

You should try using a microscope. Your tone is understood though. Calling me an idiot is childish and only hurts your credibility.

Of course it was! The point is that scientists took a "wait and see" approach instead of lambasting them for releasing results that was so obviously wrong while pointing out that it's absolutely impossible that matter can tra

I'm a climate change skeptic. I think there are a lot more factors at play than these models are using. A lot of people seem to believe these models are right more out of fear than a rational validation of the models themselves. On top
