If climate change does bring the predicted changes, automatic wealth redistribution would be a side-effect. The current holders of high-dollar waterfront properties would be pushed away. Those holding less expensive properties further inla

So the theory is that the Russians have attempted to influence the election. On the other hand, sources like CNN, MSNBC, Hollywood mouthpieces (especially at awards time), the NFL, etc. are constantly spewing politically-oriented propaganda

Many years ago, one of my mentors was a senior programmer who had gone from programmer to manager back to programmer again. At the time, I couldn't imagine why anyone would leave the management track-- wasn't that the logical care

Yes, good idea. Follow the money, not where others try to point you. Thinking like that will make you a wise investor.

I'm a long-time Java programmer, but I have to admit that .NET Core development is fun. I like it best on RHEL, or better yet on OpenShift for instant Kubernetes goodness. The Java guys better up their game, pronto. .NET Core 2.0 is c

It's the synthetic, fascist mono-culture. Free thought isn't allowed-- Silicon Valley enforces thought control like Weinstein did over Hollywood. Sooner or later (looks like sooner) everyone realizes Silicon Valley is 90% white an

Hmmmm. Red Hat's marketshare (and stock price) have risen steadily forever. Microsoft just gave up and open sourced .NET. Open Source stacks run everything . Kubernetes is running rampant. I don't think OSS is declining rapidly.

I guess that's a step worse than CNN/MSNBC/etc., which were caught in WikiLeaks collaborating with the Democratic National Committee. We need to more closely regulate what is 'really news' and what is not.

Lotta truth in that article. The author smeared Hef with the same brush used to dabble a little on Cosby, Trump and Clinton. You've got to admire that-- fair and balanced.

Strong parallels to the horrible guilt of an abortion. I wish strength to anyone carrying burdens of this type. Truly life-long wounds.

As a car guy, this is a huge loss. Chun penned some awesome automobiles. Thanks for your work, John.

What were they thinking in the first place? It was a stupid move to begin with.

I agree. Hillary's collusion with the DNC is more troubling than the Russia narrative. The DNC betrayed Democrats and worked to 'fix' the primary. That and the associated media are the real concerns.

Football will be fine. They just need to stop leaning left, it's against their core consumer group. Money ruins things, sometimes.

The SPLC lists several religious groups as hate groups. Notable left-leaning organizations like Antifa and BLM are not listed.

What would the Hillary Clinton of software companies be? - Loses easy wins, blames everybody else - Attacks minorities who point out her people are abusers - 'Screws up everything with hubris' to quote Colin Powell What did I miss

I know many people who started out with little money, then saved a percentage of not much for decades to build wealth. There's power in time. Warren Buffet knows this and other things. It's why he makes 'Secret Millionaire

Yet another left-leaning article working to demonize freedom of expression. Note there is no condemnation of antifa or BLM-- two organizations prone to violence, intimidation and destruction. The left must stop their downward spiral and res

Giving people money they did not earn will have exactly the same effect as giving people paper fans, bottled water, rain ponchos, etc. The given commodity becomes an oft-wasted resource. (i.e. inflation is a result.)

Such nonsense. Even Van Jones has rightly called the Russia narrative a 'nothingburger'. The only cheat in the 2016 election was Clinton conspiring with the DNC against Bernie. Now THAT was true election interference.

California has an appealing history. But for today's living (including taxes), Texas seems pretty appealing.

To me, it seems as if Europe (Germany and the UK, mostly) have drifted too far left. I'm surprised by what Churchill and Thatcher's country seems to be today. That may be my own prejudices and limited information. Most of what I

Dylann Roof is a loser, the same as the KKK, the same as Antifa, the same as BLM, the same as neo-Nazis. Violence is the last resort of loserdom. Reject it in all it's forms. Let's return to normalcy.

So sorry to read that. Good luck to the author. I'd love to read a happy follow-up in 10 years.
