Why is it only the heirs? Shouldn’t your issue be with all future stockholders beyond the original founders and venture capitalists? Although I assume you’d feel similar about the venture capitalists? You wouldn’t happen to own any stocks,

So the F-22 is now 3-0 against balloons? And people had the audacity to call this plane a "failure"!

But we still require them to cooperate and take responsibility instead of what most software engineers try to do which is blame management (like the prior poster I was replying to).

Don’t play coy. You know and I know that diversity discussions are always a thinly veiled proxy for talking about race-based decisions (or gender/LGTBTQ+). The person I originally responded to literally gave an example of dark skin imp

As an electric-type Pokemon (aka a minority), I'd prefer it if people didn't tailor their demeanor towards me and their hiring/firing decisions about me based on my type but rather on my abilities. Let's not forget that

You’re talking about people like they’re different types of Pokémon to collect.

Yes well that’s how a lot of crime happens. We don’t avoid prosecuting a triggerman, carjacker, or bank robber just because they got the order and were threatened for not complying. Even the Eichmanns that were just following orders went to

That isn’t what I said. I said that the person who commits the crime should be the first one to go to jail. That implies others should follow.

by abduhl 4y ago
As it should be. The hands that physically commit the crime (or the code) are usually the dirtiest.

This comment feels like a copy paste from a cryptocurrency/Web 3.0 comment from 2 years ago. It’s insane how cyclical the hype cycles are, and how they only seem to be happening faster and faster.

FYI unemployment is set at the state level. Some states pay far in excess of $450 per week (MA pays nearly $850). Your main point is still applicable and I agree with it.

The metric vs imperial discussion reminds me of Android vs iPhone discussions: Android users tend to care a lot more that their text message bubbles are green than the iPhone users do.

This is a very tortuous way to try to make this question ambiguous. Read the words in the problem and stop inserting additional facts: The room has 19 chairs. We are using 10 and then bought 9 more, how many chairs do we have in the room? T

Your post has 33 words. You used 20 words and then typed 13 more, how many words does your post have?

None of that matters. The room has 19 chairs. The answer is 19.

How convenient for Tesla. I doubt we would think this way if your wheel flew off your civic because of a design flaw in the axle.

Tesla’s FSD/autopilot does not act with intention as we understand it.

I'm glad to hear that you'd agree with me then that a correction saying "there is no glass" would be inappropriate because when someone says glass they mean the clear part of the tank.

by abduhl 4y ago
The article refers to the aquarium as glass throughout it.

by abduhl 4y ago
If the tank burst due to it shearing off of its base then it is not the glass that has the problem; it’s the connection to the base. This might sound pedantic but the OP said the forces on the GLASS were ill-distributed. The most important

by abduhl 4y ago
Why would you expect the forces acting on the glass to be ill-distributed if the enclosure were tilted slightly? Water pressure acts hydrostatically. The enclosure appears to have a circular cross section. As long as the tilt is not severe

This is fixing that. Prioritizing freight now pays less because of the fines that can be levied.
