They still do it in the US also, but you'll pay about 4x more for your milk. You can often find milk on sale for $1.99/gallon (it's a "loss leader" for supermarkets) while a half gallon in a returnable glass bottle

Is it? I thought iOS was BSD/Darwin like MacOS is, deep under the covers.

Termux is also great on Chromebooks. I use it a lot, it reminds me of Cygwin, i.e. not really Linux but 90% of what most Linux users would use routinely.

It's not quite that extreme, but the burden of proof is generally no more than preponderance of the evidence, i.e. more likely true than not true. This is the case for many associations that have internal discipline or jurisprudence fo

Early C# and contemporaneous Java were virtually copy-and-paste identical. Even today I would put them in the same bucket when classifying languages. Though I haven't used either in many years.

Reusable containers died as soon as plastic containers were developed. Plastic containers are so much lighter that significant money is saved in transport, and obviously the handling and transport for the returns, the inspecting, washing, s

Lately, with respect to the government, I think it's fair to shorten the statement to simply "the US can't get anything done."

Sure, when I first started my professional programming career, I worked in a couple of COBOL shops. Most of the developers there had never used anything else, and weren't interested in anything else. It was a job. Almost all of the pro

Can you as a Java developer tell me why it is then that every time I have a problem on a Linux machine with OOM killer randomly terminating things and general performance problems it always traces back to someone's Java program. Why do

There are a lot of numbers from my past that are still committed to my memory too, even though I haven't used them in years. Old telephone numbers, bank account numbers, long-distance calling card numbers (back when a long-distance pho

Uh TFA is talking about low income parents. In the tech sector here, it's the same. I can "work from home" to take care of a sick kid, or I can just use a sick day, which I have in plentiful supply, and avoid the pretense of

Seems to follow a familiar pattern: non cryptographic random number function and a predictable seeding mechanism used to generate authentication tokens.

Climate change won't end life on earth. It may be an extinction event for humans. Personally I think this is unlikely, but so what if it is? There have been extinction events before, and in fact that is why we are dominating the planet

Exactly what is happening in my town. The city wanted to launch a municipal internet service. Predictably, it failed because the requirements were to provide service everywhere and the bids all came back too high. Meanwhile they continue to

Comcast (et. al.) monopolies are largely due to local/municipal franchise agreements. Breaking up Comcast into a bunch of little baby Comcasts would not do any good if they are still granted local monopolies by little town boards and c

I was also about to post, asking about motive. What is the motive to make a 777 full of people disappear. What was on board, or who was on board, that would be worth this effort? It's pretty close to beyond belief that this was just a

So you want someone to write three paragraphs for what can be said in six words? I prefer the brevity.

I'd say that remains to be seen. There isn't a Tesla in the "affordable" segment yet, so we don't know what the demand is.

"An expansive view of human knowledge" is not what the modern undergraduate degree provides anyway. For a huge number of undergrads, college is high school part 2, just something they need to get through to get a good job. They ar

Back then, most people finished school at grade 8. Those who went to High School were smart and motivated to further their education. So curricula could be correspondingly more challenging/faster-paced.

Good question. Are there any accredited graduate programs or professional programs that will accept students without undergrad degrees but with good GRE scores?

There are two purposes to modern high schools in the US: * College prep for the college-bound * Day-care for the non-college-bound In contemporary high schools, if you're not college-bound, you might as well not exist. You will be igno

Same thought, and my guess is that the gaseous hydrogen does escape slowly. But perhaps there is enough excess stored in the TiH₂ to give the tube a useful lifespan.

Yeah, since the article specifically is titled project management not research, I assumed this was about project management for people who already have their PhD, i.e. are working as faculty or in a research lab. And in that environment, th

Indiana used to have safety inspections, scrapped several decades ago. Part of the reason is probably that cars (even in rust prone areas) don't rust nearly as quickly as they used to, and everything else on the vehicle, e.g. tires, br
