Oh, ffs. I was replying the comment that the subways stays are "fine". They're not fine, they're more dangerous than they were 20 years ago; more dangerous than they should be. The subway system in NYC is of great benefi

This. I have no urge to have git "clean" my project, because I'll lose a ton of files I have created locally. Rather, I want the project know what it creates when it builds and have the ability to clean/purge them. It&#x

I use makefiles all the time for my projects; projects that are actually built with something else (ex, gradle, maven, whatever). My makefiles have targets for build, clean, dependencies, and a variety of other things. And they also have in

It's not so much that it's esoteric, it's that it's not something most people use every day, and skills decay over time. I mean, Differential Equations (Diff-e-screw) was a year 2 class for me, and I assume I'd fail

Yeah, but you also have to live in Rome, NY. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to live in a major city; but being _near_ one is pretty handy. And if the job doesn't pan out, then being in Rome, NY means your options for the ne

But, it's not really censorship, per se. It's "your company, which is of <this country> cannot do business in our country; because we want to give that a company in our country". And, in that light, doing the rever

That's how I read it, originally. And my thought was "they're a phone provider now? That's kind of ironic"

Word of mouth. Not the best option, but it's balanced against the cost of regulation. The cost of complying with regulation (not changes in the product, but proving you comply) can destroy any hope of profit from a smaller business; bu

My thought would be that it's as much the fact that society is growing. It used to be we'd buy our food from the producers of it. If it was bad, word would get around and the 10-50 people that were buying from them would stop; and

Yes, supply and demand do affect both price and availability of units. But the person you're replying to seemed to be indicating that they're not the _only_ things that effect price and availability of units. And, specifically, th

That's kind of a straw man argument there, because that's not at all what they are telling you. I don't necessarily agree with what they're saying, but - I would assume it's literally impossible to drop 10 million n

It depends on your use case. If you're looking to have a set of data that you can search through, sure. If you're looking to tail the log while working on things, having it output in plain text is very handy.

This is an amazingly simplistic view of what actually happens when doing taxes for everyone I have ever met. The number of deductions you need to consider and figure out if you qualify for, even for someone fresh out of college, can be over

That's why I said insurance to cover it. And the insurance would be dedicated to covering that; it wouldn't be accessible to pay off other creditors.

It was my understanding that the company they bought it from didn't have the rights to sell it in the US. As such, there's no real difference between buying from them and buying from someone that stole it and sold it to you. Now,

Because those costs were incurred with the plan to recoup the cost from sales in the US, and (presumably) those people are bypassing the licensed sale/use; which ruins that plan. Your question is really no different than asking why it&
