I think you're talking about something different from what sigmoid10 was talking about. sigmoid10 said "manipulate behaviour during those benchmarks". I interpreted that to mean the compiler detects if a benchmark is going on

There can be situations where someone's rights are more important than the law. In that case it's ethical to break the law. Speeding to the hospital and lying to Nazis are cases of that. The drinking with your 18 year old, I'

I'm not outsourcing my morality. There are plenty of actions that are legal that are immoral. I don't think the government's job is to enforce morality. The government's job is to set up a framework for society to help p

I agree if they're negligent they're unethical. But I also think if they're illegal they're generally unethical. In situations where some other right is more important that the law, underage drinking or illegal right on

I think breaking a law is more unethical than not breaking a law. Also, legality isn't the only difference in the VW case. With VW, they had a "good emissions" mode. They enabled the good emissions mode during the test, but d

You're using "corruption" in a different way than delichon. delichon is using it to mean government members take so much money for themselves that the bombs and the rest of the military stop functioning.

The video is a parody of marketing. If you want to criticize it for being irrelevant and that humor doesn't fit this situation, then sure. But saying it has similar marketing to consumer goods isn't really accurate.

> text is not as sharp as I remember Something interesting is that the top bar text (File, Edit, etc.) is a little bit blurry, but when I click on one of them (e.g. File), the drop down text (e.g. New Project) is completely crisp with no

I'm not surprised that people still try to negotiate. I am surprised that they're irreconcilably annoyed when negotiating fails.

Fargren is asking why a recruiter would want to to withhold information. Your answer is "More information always helps." That doesn't answer the question.

Why not disclose it and also say "it's not up for any negotiation".

I think the argument is that the drug dealers are actually using bitcoin for its utility, whereas the 1000 normal dudes are just buying it as an investment, not to use.

If I give to a charity, I get a tax deduction. If I give directly to a homeless person, I don't. Let's say my marginal tax rate is 50%. That means I could give $10 to a homeless person, or $20 to a homeless shelter, both costing m

What you're saying agrees with the article. However, you say you're agreeing with scott_w, and scott_w is criticizing the article. So this is confusing.
