getting promoted would also reset the process. (unless they've fixed that)

is there such a thing as neutral on this? you're either for or against net neutrality. the only neutral people are those people who are not involved/don't care. and I don't really care to hear from those people. also

I guess the reason I think we no longer be that is the fact that this is a very different country from back then. after all, we have twitter! /s. but I see your point and concede that it can be a dangerous slippery slope.

I'm a racial and religious minority who's in an interracial relationship. so, as you've already guessed, I long for the Jim Crow days of yore.

that justification is very weak re the border wall. we can argue that it is a dumb way to do things. but if that was the case then everything the gov does needs an ACLU lawsuit. the constitution does not guarantee open-borders and the ent

What, exactly, is the problem with that? Everyone should have the right to refuse service to whomever they please. Should I be forced to cater to a nazi wedding? I think I should be allowed to deny service to whomever I please. And if p

Should a Jewish restaurant be compelled to serve neo-nazis wearing Nazi uniforms?

I spilled soda on my mac once, and took it to the repair shop. the receptionist there asked me for my password. I laughed and I said of course not. she was shocked and asked: well, how are we going to test the new keyboard. I don't kn

little ambiguity? I beg to differ. no one writes with vowel marks in Arabic and the same word can be interpreted in many different ways without context. even with context but lacking vowel marks the same word can mean different things.

they can and do detect VoIP numbers and reject them. I don't know about yik yak specifically but it's trivial enough that I'm sure they do it too

that is definitely not true as a general rule for vc backed companies. this might be applicable to companies that have no business model/non-revenue-generating. but even then, any decent founder can do the basic arithmetic needed to f

I'm curious why you think .NET core is a "game changer". I used to be a .net guy for years as well but I haven't been keeping up as of late.

I don't think it's that simple/straight forward. Another member has also dropped out: http://www.coindesk.com/santander-drops-out-r3-blockchain-co...

are we really pretending that those people would've changed their vote had they not seen the "fake" news? I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of these shares were by people who wanted the news to be true anyway. I

exactly. web infrastructure is not centralized. online services on the other hand are centralized. that problem will exist even in this utopian decentralized universe

as great as it is to be able to search source code in github is, it is equally (if not more) frustrating. I think it works fine for simple searches mentioned in the post, but anything even slightly more advanced doesn't work very well.

lets cut to the chase, does tmux work on wsl?

I completely agree with you about how terrible obamacare has been. I've been screwed by it in every way imagineable. so much so that, they've prevented me from being able to file my 2015 taxes and will most likely have to pay la

yes, in fact I believe that everyone who is giving a speech at an institution like that to know everything he talked about if not not more. he didn't mention anything that you can't find on the first page of a cliffs notes on quan

Exactly. I mean did we really just jump straight from the worst shell in history (the windows command prompt) to one that supports tmux? However, I don't know if this is the case. I remember in the livestream Meyers saying that they

they're not, but this blog post made it seem like they're worth the money. I don't know how I feel about this post. I don't know if I can consider it a diy project when he has access to equipment beyond the reach of most

the biggest one for me is the lack of support for nested transactions

not from my experience. last I checked, neither one of them supports nested transactions

The thing is I wasn't trying to convince anyone though :) I doubt anyone here will be willing to shell out the money for a license. Although, Azure might make it affordable but I hated the limitations they put on the mssql instances
59.
by TheOsiris 11y ago
sure, and I've never used mssql for any project of mine b/c it is so expensive. I've only used it when someone else (a client) pays for it. That still doesn't make it functionally worse though. I find mysql to be very

by TheOsiris 11y ago
ms sql is better than mysql. downvote me all you want, but you can't possibly disagree if you've tried both like I have. transaction isolation anyone? don't have much experience with postgres, but my money is still on mssql
