Not to mention that since the interviewer now has a name for said distro, they should have looked it up and found what language it was written in.

>A common FP critique of imperative programming goes like this: “How can a = a + 1? That’s like saying 1 = 2. Mutable assignment makes no sense.” This is a notation mismatch: “equals” should mean “equality”, when it really means “assign”

It doesn't matter if the person after your account is a skid, or is a government-backed entity, you lose all your data and online accounts either way.

The backpage indictment was unsealed. Zero incidents of trafficking. https://apnews.com/339ea77b33754375a3e21599888c971e

As they should be. Just finishing up my 2 year college and I'm about to transfer to a much larger (and more prestigious) state school for my BS and MS. It's turned out a whole hell of a lot cheaper using a community college than p

If you read the bill you would know that's bull shit. An FBI report is not a credible source.

"vet" may not have been the best term to use, I'll admit. That said, services like Backpage are much safer for sex workers to use as opposed to picking up more random clients on the street.

Are you serious? These bills make any website liable for escort services. Craigslist removed their personals section, Twitter as shadowbanned all sex workers providing escort services, etc. This bill is clearly bullshit and intended to atta

That one's simple: bribery.

Can we stop treating sex workers like second class citizens? Fucking Christ, getting rid of vetted escort aggregates like Backpage will only increase trafficking. FOSTA and SESTA are anti-sex work bills disguised as sex trafficking bills so

That sounds like an OS/hardware problem, honestly. There's no reason vim with any setup should lock up a machine.

I'm not entirely sure they should be liable. A car manufacturer isn't liable if someone commits vehicular homicide, and McDonald's isn't liable if someone eats themselves to death with Big Macs.

Thank you for the correction!

Only for the journal and hostname functionalities, it should work fine for everything else without systemd.

Appeal to legality. A similar argument could be made that this would be to stop mass shootings, meaning this bank ban on guns would fall under legal grounds, not moral grounds.

>well-meaning Damore cherry-picked Wikipedia articles to claim women are biologically inferior with the intent of causing an uproar, that's not at all "well-meaning". Buried deep, deep down, he had somewhat of a point, but

Those other rants are neither entertaining, nor informative. The reasons why I like Linus' rants in particular are because they're fun to read and I learn things.

by PrimHelios 9y ago
I always appreciate Linus' rants. In addition to being somewhat humorous, I usually learn a thing or two from them. It amazes me that people focus on how much of a jerk he's being instead of actually looking at the contents of his

Thank you for making this post. I've never been pro-ID laws, but I've never really seen the issue with them when implemented in a fair way. I've thankfully never been in that situation, and I think you've done a great jo

So build a post-racial world by building up racial barriers and continuing the "other"-ness of people with different skin colors? I'm not trying to be a dick or strawman you, that's the only thing I can get from this com

by PrimHelios 9y ago
How is that in any way relevant? How does that at all mean that black people better understand black people, or justify explicitly selecting a jury on the basis of something arbitrary like skin color?

If anything, I would keep my adblocker enabled just to see those creepy ads, that would make for some interesting browsing sessions.

by PrimHelios 9y ago
Animated ads actually give me sensory overload. If a site could promise non-moving ads, I'd gladly whitelist them. It's amazing how many sites think you'll just accept incredibly intrusive and annoying banners.

The article was specifically talking about sex trafficking victims. Sex trafficking victims aren't doing it willingly, they are sex slaves, not prostitutes.

Warframe has a lot of issues (still need 135k mutalist samples for the Hema), but even though it has a ton of bugs, I don't really care. The devs and managers treat the fanbase so much better than any other game, so I'm willing to
