The warrant is still necessary, evidence obtained through illicit means is generally not acceptable.

I think most of these solutions are "fine" for their stated goals, but the problem is that bookkeeping is tedious. And that's what Jira (or insert ticket system of your choice here) exposes, the tediousness of the task of kee

That feels a lot like where I've come to as well. I think it's not an uncommon opinion. And of course, Adam Savage is always great.

That's like the only way it should be used. You know your situation and problems. You know when "just" is just.

Fuck “just”. When someone says “just”, all I hear is “I have no fucking clue”. Just is a bitch mother that seeks to handwave away any potential problems. If it’s just that, I’ll gladly step aside and let you do it. But if you then tell me

10% in this case is $2. Hardly anything worth noting. Like, it matters that all the boxes were of equal value. There should have been boxes of multiple values, where the apparent value was on top, in middle, on bottom, and mixed. Then if th

But they were all the same, so the box they chose didn't matter. The first is just as good as the last. So the people who made the snap judgements were no better or worse off than those who slept on it. I would say this study says clos

Powershell lets you install extensions and run commands against the clr. It’s basically a clr repl. If you need to interact with windows/microsoft specific things (i.e. Active Directory), it’s pretty convenient

It's weird, I mostly associate git bash with VS Code because it's the terminal I use most often with it. It doesn't occur to me to use it outside of that context. I use the command shell or Powershell depending on what I need

The system says it will pay you every time a person streams your song to listen to it. That's not what happened.

There's a slightly quicker way that they kind of stumble upon, but never outright say. miles * 8/5 = km and km * 5/8 = miles. How many km in 100 miles? 100/5 = 20, 20 * 8 = 160. How many miles in 400km? 400/8 = 50,

I don't think this is spearheaded by the IRS at all.

The Laffer curve is just kind of made up. He just said "I believe this is how it should work" and then tried to make it work, even though it never quite does. And it often turns in results that its proponents don't like.

I mean, technically, height is not like height either. One's height is not fixed, even in a given day. But I get his point. Kind of. Intelligence is more like speed. Speed can be affected by multiple things. Once you run X fast, it doe

I’ve gone over the readme, what part would you say is them dunking? Like, honest question, I do agree with most of their points and don’t think they’re presenting them in a too harsh way

To be fair, we're almost 2 years from the release of ChatGPT and the "demise of the programmer". We've already did the speedrun from people styling themselves "prompt engineers" to people openly mocking people

No, the point of the compiler is to translate code into machine instruction. Yes, it can optimize things for you, but that is not its purpose.

People like the piano tuner in question are the kinds of people I love talking to and watching work. They know these tiny minute details of things most of us only have a gross understanding of. They know the ins and outs of the craft they

That's roughly 75 - 80 mph. Which is the average posted speed limit on US interstates.

There's two major companies in the area that rent out apartments. I rented from one a few years back. In my unit, there were 12 apartments (I think). IIRC, four per floor, with three floors. I believe there were 8 to 12 units surroundi

It depends on the setup. Ideally, they're in a building and back-loaded, in which case, they might not even be closed on the backside. Because access to the back is secured. But for other types of boxes, like outdoor boxes, there'

I really don't know what else. I believe this is how dotnet implements them under the hood as well. I don't need the Optional to be "not an enum", I need it to function in certain ways. And syntactic sugar is 0 calorie

Make your own game engine until you need to use something else. Seriously, some game engines are overkill. Some are not enough. And sometimes, you want the engine to be the difference. Plenty of games have their own engine.

Killing someone who is trying to live is a bit at odds with compassion. Desperation can make us short-sighted and reckless. It’s why most people who are prevented from committing suicide often don’t try again. It’s an act of desperation. We

That's really the perspective I'm coming from. When I say the answer isn't to let terminal patients take whatever they feel like, it's to say that they shouldn't be the one to make the decision that a developing dru

This is a complicated subject. Because those rules are in place for reasons. And some of those reasons are to prevent drug companies from turning the poor into lab rats with no regard to their safety. And I guarantee you, you let "term

All of this kind of tracks. From the dismissal of autistic people's imagination and creativity to the very different ways they can express imagination and creativity. I think the disconnect comes from the lack of fantasy in a lot of (f
