   That he/Priscilla donates to the hospital and they name it after him? That’s pretty common...

   If the article was trying to say that the “low tax low service” government model is terrible for low income people it did it well. Not really related to Tesla.

   Yeah agree, I see no difference between 4850 and 5000 - people are so hung up in other comments on calling this a failure. It shows it’s possible, the rocket just missed the landing a bunch of times, nobody cares about that now.

   Stuff you can't do: - Add reviewers to pull requests - Approve pull requests This is the main new features so its a bit disappointing to not be able to do this. I find the UI for PRs to be a bit hard too, compared with the rest of the

    I agree with this but I think the price is a bit high (I bought it, because I like it). I don't feel like I got a lot of value for the money because Tower 2 was so great, and I had to pay more to use Bitbucket Server. Hopefully, new fe

    Maybe I should change that. In this case frankly I can see both sides. I refused to work on a cigarette company once, but didn’t refuse to work on operation sovereign borders (because of project specifics) other people might decide differen

    The problem with discourse in 2018 is outrage motivates people to comment more than anything. “What gets rewarded gets done” so the place becomes an outrage factory, then online discourse self selects for outrage, then cycle.

    > The web has reached a new low Strongly disagree. The web is just the medium, the places people visit might have reached a new low, but the platform is only getting better. Just at the state of cross browser in 2015 vs 2018!

    I'm a consultant, the biggest thing to understand is that you don't work for the company, you work for the individuals in the company. You need to immediately start solving what they think is the problem, to build the capital to s

    In Australia you could be on around $500 pp (if you don’t live as a dependant) a fortnight paid all year (even on holiday) +2k p/y for books and the degree itself you start paying back only after you earn 40k. She would get more from h

    Without even factoring in work culture, the cost of a FT employee is really really high in a place like Australia where you basically can’t fire people. Want a 6 month project done, makes more sense to pay for a consultant team than try spi

    I’m keen for an understanding of how this would affect me, can you elaborate? I would assume the performance would need to be better for them to make the change + battery life.

    Also I agree you can tell safety was the number one priority. However the positive is basically never getting runtime errors, except when interfacing with IB or obj-c even when people are programming in a hurry, which is nice for me.
