That's plausible, also from personal experience with family I do think conservative media tends to be more addictive, so an average conservative will consume more news than an average liberal.

Or maybe liberals tend to not use Facebook to get their news.

This reads like a clickbait article with an agenda. Also, who cares? SF is one of the most expensive cities in the world - it's probably fair to expect city employees to make a liveable wage in the city they serve.

They mostly prevent jail breaking because the same processes that jailbreak a phone can often be used to hack peoples phones because they’re security loopholes.

I don’t agree. The defining difference between the left and right to me is the propensity to advocate for change. The cultural left is a hodgepodge if smaller issues under one larger umbrella. You’ve got people who care about racism, climat

I agree. It feels very American to believe we cannot keep peace without the persistent threat of having your life ended.

It’s not clear to me that claiming political leverage would cost them dollars. Typically unionized employees make more once it’s said and done. I tend to think that there’s a shortage in engineering skill, which drives their cost up.

Agreed. Many a late sleepless night have I blown 200 points or more on frustrating blitz games. I would regularly play a game or two during lunch breaks, climb a good bit, then stay up too late one night and rage throw my points into the ab

IMO, yes and no. The language design isn’t to blame. The libraries and runtime that are colloquially known as JS are. It’s hard to separate the two in discussion so the term js is a bit overloaded.

Aren’t they also freed from servicing their debts as well? Why does pausing the debt cycle affect them disproportionately?

Absolutely. My mom is a teacher for virtual Virginia full time and it took her at least a couple years to get in the swing of things after 25 in the classroom.

The problem isn't the trailing 6 weeks but the upcoming {unknown} weeks of little to no travel. It makes no sense to bleed money indefinitely out of generosity to your employees. This pandemic is what a social safety net is supposed to

Ever stare at a loading screen unsure if Windows is actually updating before?

I'm right there with you. I am always looking for people who attack problems with new perspectives and, most importantly, can describe to me coherently their thought process and pros/cons of their approach.

I generally agree with a lot of these points, but I’m not sure I agree with using the placeholder for hints. If you put in a couple characters and forget the hint, it’s now gone. The ‘bad’ example there actually seemed better to me.

Correct.

I recently honeymooned in Colombia and my wife and I used Uber in Bogotá. If I recall correctly, it was never exactly ‘legal’ but still quite common and cheap. I wouldn’t be surprised to see another local company (Rappi perhaps?) try to ent

There is no truly neutral position though. Who gets the final say then?

I remember a few years back hearing that one reason we are studying the sun is to hopefully detect such a powerful solar storm on the order of ~hours before such a solar flare hits Earth. This might give grid operators enough time to effect

What’s with the attitude? He said he was wrong and the child comment fixed the issue. No need to castigate him.

Can you explain in layman’s terms what this might mean?

If the emissions costs are constant in terms of $/ton of CO2, the incentive would only exist if the car route is less polluting.

Not OP but it interests me! Do you have a link by any chance?

That is most certainly not a true assumption. There are quite a few people who stretch their funds to just buy an iPhone and need to penny pinch when something in it breaks. They're still a valuable market.

Interesting. If we can manufacture rocket fuel and forge these 'space alloys' on Mars (or in LMO, low mars orbit), the transport cost to get those alloys to Earth could be theoretically much lower once you have a stable, relativel

I feel like keeping in mind inheritance and what other classes do and look like is harder than remembering what a method does when chaining them together or currying for example.

I've always liked Learn you a Haskell, but it's a trip to get through and you may need to re-read it a few times for things to stick. Another helpful one is Functional Javascript. It showed me a new, better, way to write my JS cod

To me, the pain I've always had with OOP is the amount of things I need to keep in mind at a time when making a change, and also tracking side effects. That mental overhead takes me away from thinking about what my customer really want
