Can't speak for OP, but my progression went like this starting in 1995: - Start wasting lots of time in MSN chatrooms - Parents cancel MSN and switch to local ISP. Mourn loss of chatrooms. - Discover IRC using the mIRC client - Start p

In my experience, it's usually 24-48 hours after the snowfall ends so there's plenty of time to get it done. Also in my experience, it is very rarely enforced. In many places, the sidewalk is the only safe place to walk the street

There isn’t a good tax-advantaged alternative if you’re an employee with access to a 401k. If you’re under the income limit, you can make deductible contributions to an traditional IRA but that’s capped at $5500 per year vs $18,000 for the

Probably to avoid making 'data' a reserved word and breaking a ton of code that used 'data' as a variable name. Prior to Java 5, 'enum' was a very popular variable name too.

I suppose his comment was vague enough to interpret it however you want. To me, he's lamenting top talent being paid top dollar to work on better ways to get people to buy tchotchkes.

It's one thing to find a loophole in their paywall to view their content on their site. It seems to me that it's quite another to scrape their content and serve it up somewhere else in its entirety.

How is this not just stealing their work?

There was no reason for this to even get to a point where physically removing a passenger who did nothing wrong was necessary. There was a very simple solution here: United wanted 4 seats, offered some vouchers, and got no takers. At that

Submitted title gives the impression that he's going to do something about it. Actual article title: "FCC chief wants smartphones’ hidden FM radios turned on, but won’t do anything about it"

In addition to that, there's no way the engineer waited until subsequent nights to try other flavors.

Why do you think the funds in your 401k are better than you could ever get in your IRA? You can open an IRA account anywhere you want. If the funds available where you are now aren't good, just move somewhere with better choices.

Perhaps you're just exaggerating to make your point, but I'm quite confident that you've never had a $50 steak end up anywhere close to $100 due to taxes and tips.

Trusted Authentication is a poor solution to the problem of how I can embed views in my web app without having the end users of my web app have Tableau server accounts. For the following reasons: - I have to explicitly add each server IP ad

Why do you assume he didn't? It's quite possible to have this conversation one on one and then use it as an opportunity to address a wider audience. They are not mutually exclusive.

I think that even if you expected them to become commonplace, you would realize what a momentous event in history the first landing would be.

As a (reluctant) Quicken user, I was not aware that Express Web Connect credentials are stored on Quicken servers. Do you have anything to back that assertion up?

What a boon this is for Turing. I'm willing to bet most of the public will not realize it's not the same drug from the earlier price hike story.

In and of itself I really like this move, but I have to wonder if it's good thing in the long run to allow Google to assert its vision of good UX on the entire web. Where's the line? Of course nobody is forcing websites to do anyt
