I don't think that's so certain. My parents did limit the amount of time we could spend playing video games (IIRC two hours a day) and I still ended up here.

They were busting California medical marijuana dispensaries left and right as recently as 10 years ago, which is more than a decade after we passed Proposition 215. It seems a bit optimistic to think that now they'll bow to state law

There have been multiple bills to reschedule marijuana over the past several years. They all died. There was another introduced this year and it met the same fate. I'm not sure why you'd blame Obama for the House's unwillingn

You mean without getting whomped for insider trading? I don't think they're allowed to do it in advance at all.

That doesn't seem like a very good deal, though. You have to pay a sizable chunk of cash to improve somebody else's property and insure it for a million dollars. That is a much worse proposition than installing a charger in your h

I'm pretty sure your old car would have to be especially awful to make buying a new car — electric or not — the environmentally friendly option.

The standard breath-watching practice you're most likely to encounter primarily targets samatha , which basically means concentration or freedom from distraction.

This is basically the goal of meditation (mindfulness meditation in particular). I'd give that a try. At first, it will probably feel like your lack of concentration makes meditation impossible, but that's actually completely norm

I think there's a lot about its expressiveness that's elegant. You can't pick one inelegant practice and define the entire language by that — nothing would pass that test. But for example, Ruby's method-based control flo

I believe it means that the recipient of the double-spent transaction can sue you or send goons after you just like they would someone who defrauded them without using cryptocurrency.

I don't think that's even true for most of the coasts. I live in San Diego, which is I think the third biggest coastal city in the US, and the average household income here for a family of four is about $200k less than that.

Product placement and ads both serve the purpose of promoting something, but they're not really the same thing at all. I mean, both cars and bikes serve the purpose of transportation, but I don't think many people would argue that

It's pretty well established that the state has the right to dictate how employers treat employees as well as many aspects of compensation, so I don't see why you'd think this particular rule wouldn't be constitutional.

If someone would throw a hissy fit and set a salary range at which they cannot legally hire anyone because now applicants have a little bit more negotiating power, it's hard to believe they're in a position to do that in the first

I think you're confusing "correct" and "exists" or "was entered deliberately." A password can only be correct or not for a given account. If the password differs from the one recorded for the user you spec

That doesn't have anything to do with the question of whether "raw number of successful projects using it" is a good metric for how good something is. Lots of successful companies have made mistakes, and there are even mistak

That seems like a pretty dodgy metric. Lots of successful construction projects used asbestos, but it is still widely considered a mistake.

You're drawing a distinction without difference. You can phrase basically any rule that discriminates against a subgroup as a rule on the larger group that only affects the subgroup. For example, I don't think anyone would say, &q

There's nothing about reverse chronological order that makes it innately better for listing things, or better or worse for advertisers. Even for a feed, there are good arguments for and against different orderings depending on both the

I imagine they'd handle it by designating off-peak hours, like many utility companies already do, so people will charge their cars then.

This incident did not, as far as I can tell, harm anyone's security or privacy. This add-on doesn't appear to track you, send your information to anyone, or grant access to your system to anyone else. People are upset to find the

It was very common back before Firefox. Netscape, Opera and Omniweb (which in Mac OS X's early days was the best browser for that platform) were the biggest ones. Internet Explorer made it a very tough sell on Windows, and Firefox and
