Shown here are two good reasons for why people don't respect the police anymore. They take your assets due to a subtle association to a crime. They spend it without oversight on tools of mass surveillance. Ultimately, both of these thi

Engineers are respected for their ingenuity, intelligence, real-world problem-solving, studious determination, maybe even grit. These skills are on the opposite spectrum from vanity skills(presentation, socializing, marketing), which unfort

Good on her. My regular disagreement w my feminist friends is their SJW stuff does them more harm than good and the only way forward is our having more female engineers. Clearly then, I think this initiative is really tackling the core of g

Twitter is also pretty heavy-handed on its censorship of US politics. For instance by blacklisting trending topics such as #WhichHillary when it had gained momentum. (when the protester went to her event with the quote about 'super pre

It's kind of stupid to me that the massive and advanced cdn of akamai protect something as non-important as a blog against such a major ddos attack. If they were doing it pro-bono wouldn't the prudent action be to mitigate ddos&#x

Ignoring everything else, Mr. Robot builds a spectacular atmosphere, which is an almost impossible task in television. This show is wonderful. I'd say it competes with Game of Thrones on quality and it's my favorite show right now

Awesome. So a quantum network would have the photon act as a data stream, in a way it would act like a physical security key. So with a lot of work, this would be amazing for 1:1 communications. But what if I want to send my dick pick to hu

If this guy loves being an announcer to the point that they'll do kid's soccer or hockey, why not try announcing for something like esports? I'm surprised more pro's haven't seen the opportunity and moved into it.

One day I had turned on the television and found a MLB game as an interim choice while I found something else to watch. I didn't know, but my center channel's wiring had gone loose from moving speakers around. There were no announ

Definitely. Also, getting a new car that prioritizes reliability is a smart move as well. The author didn't do this though. A nice(imo) new car can be had for less than ~$25k and his $40k tells me he wanted something a little more flas

I guess I'll respond everywhere you tried to make this point. A $40k car will likely come with a 5yr loan that's cheaper than student loans. That'd actually be $8k/yr+interest... which is not 40% of your salary. Find som

Does no one here buy cars? I forgive you. A $40k car will likely come with a 5yr loan that's cheaper than student loans. That'd actually be $8k/yr+interest... which is not 40% of your salary. Find something else to judge the

Of course a tax percentage of a value is going to be less than the value. The main penalty would be the tanking of your credit rating. The effect it would have on an interest rate for future loans would be very significant.

I assume if forgiveness ever occurred, it would need to be respected as income for the debtor(so then IRS gets involved) simply to prevent fraud. Much in the same way that charge-offs are currently taxable income(1099-C). There's simpl

I understand that feeling... I'm nearing the end of my loans and dropped $3k on one of them yesterday. I would have rather had a vacation if it's just going to vanish! ...but don't get salty because the debt won't vanish

Censorship? Not really. You were close though, it's targeted propaganda.

Very interesting. I was wondering when the internet would get some smart propaganda. Never thought it'd come through third-party cookies but it makes sense given the pervasive networks. Their identifiers are as powerful as SSNs at this

I'm not sure who I can trust more, the salesman or the banker. =( (I work at a bank and I'm a little jealous of the guy who left to work at the sausage factory... because at least they understand engineering processes.)

Sorry but in my experience, your instincts are correct. Smart managers who will give you the serious market-correction bumps do exist but they rarely exist. Even then, you will need to have undoubted value in order to leverage a serious bum

If they did so, there would be tariffs from their client nations. Then they'd bribe the tariff countries... which is what they're doing now, anyways. So why go through all the trouble of owning a country?
