One of my coworkers bought a Model S. At first he was always going on about how amazing it was. Then within the first year he started having all kinds of problems with it. He's now in the middle of a lawsuit trying to get a refund on i

I know Kyle and he is very opinionated and adheres very tightly to his set of beliefs. I think this can rub some people the wrong way and maybe this leads to the belief that he is a dick. From my personal experience I think he's actual

mrguyorama already did a good job of pointing out how it was in fact undue risk. I wasn't addressing how so because I thought it was so obvious, but that may be just my history in finance and risk management. The point I was trying to

I don't want businesses to fail because their bank took undue risk, but the reality is that sufficiently large businesses should have their money spread around multiple banks to reduce the risk to the business.

To oversimplify a company with $100MM revenues annually and costs of $120MM annually is still losing money and has a real current value of $0.

This scenario is unlikely to be an _easy_ win in court, but presents enough headache and just the risk of the company losing in court would most likely result in a settlement offer.

If that's the case then you should know being fit isn't going to mean much if you run into an actual BMFer. I grew up in Atlanta and I lived in Chicago for awhile. From my personal experience, and the stats back me up, Atlanta is

Such a naive take. I suspect you haven't spent much time in bad neighborhoods where there's a high chance that the "weak" looking person approaching on the sidewalk is strapped. You don't show some mutual respect an

Honestly I'm starting to feel a bit alarmed by the growth of solar energy. I live in Midwest farm country and solar farms are just being built in place of food farms at a scary rate. While I believe in the idea of cleaner renewable ene

My last 3 cars have all supported Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. First a Honda, then a GM, now a Hyundai. All three had some issues with cord becoming disconnected. In all cases this was a car manufacturer problem because they aren't

I've done enough with dry-rb to know I don't want to try Hanami. I think at that point it's just better to switch to something truly functional like Elixir.

The long answer is a bit complicated, but the short answer is you should duplicate code. It is far less work to dedupe WET and abstract later once you truly understand the correct abstraction than it is to try to untangle the wrong abstract

Hold up young one. The reason for QWERTYs design has absolutely not been lost to history yet. The design was to spread out the hammers of the most frequently used letters to reduce the frequency of hammer jamming back when people actually u

Considering one of the hacker's first actions was to offer for sale data identifying people of Jewish or Chinese descent I think that's a very valid concern.

That's a generalization with no supporting data. As an actual sample size of 1; I lived in a smaller city of only about 250k people and there was a huge selection of restaurants that offered delivery, not just pizza. Honestly DoorDash

The article leads with Shadow and Bone being canceled. First season was fantastic, but season two was an incoherent unwatchable mess. I'm not surprised it was canceled.

I could see that. We change the fillings to get more variety. One time it might be ground beef, next time chorizo or ground turkey.

Not parent, but as an example zucchini boats are pretty popular in my area of the Midwest as are stuffed peppers. A zucchini boat is basically just zucchini stuffed with meat, cheese, tomato, onions, and spices. That's the whole meal.

Python is arguable a pretty language and it's also a fully featured language with support for classes, first class functions, and yet manages to remain relatively simple and approachable. But even that isn't why it's popular.
