Generally, anyone that a company has duly authorized to sign will be able to sign on behalf of the company. I'm just guessing at what the GP meant, but I think the most important thing is to just negotiate the contract as the LLC. I

I think you mean "does", or at least, "did". I have spoken with more than one political operative who has voted for the dead, for instance. Probably much more common in NYC (and other places suffering from machine politi

For the most part, this seems like a pretty reasonable application of homomorphic cryptography to act as an extra voting record. Like others here I think it would need to be secondary to the paper voting record, and I worry that would be h

Perhaps you could spend a few moments thinking of a creative way to express your thought without the casually offensive language.

I wholeheartedly disagree about your characterization of Go. There are indeed some advanced and misguided features, to wit: goroutines and channels. On the one hand, these primitives make writing some types of programs easy, but it enforc

One aspect that would be interesting is: I would expect that after an insurance payout the stolen coin would be legally the property of the insurance company. The stolen coin would accumulate on the books of the insurance company, which co

I would expect that to get a reasonable premium, you would have to agree to follow certain best practices that would reduce the risk profile. Implementation would of course be hard.

In general governments are more than happy to arbitrate civil issues of ownership regardless of the property, but there may not be much appetite to pursue criminal investigation.

Though I'd agree with the sibling who questions how much of a game changer it is, I can't help but notice how fantastic an example this is of the value in having a diverse team developing a product.

Your second example is a great example of how sometimes it's just not worth it. You're probably right that it makes sense to just write a comment and move along (after you've replicated the bug and filed an issue against the

Though I agree that it's not always possible, I would contest your second point, at least for the majority of testing effort. Sure, a unit test might just document what code is doing, because that's really the only why. But most

It's death by a thousand cuts, but somehow the coal fire contributes to not one of those cuts? I read the author's argument as "here are a few more of those cuts" myself.

Hmm, I would arrive at the opposite definition of "information density" than you, and I'm guessing the GP does, too. Your definition is "musical notes played per surface unit", but I think that's inverted. Tak

I don't think you understand my point: the implementation doesn't matter, what matters is the user's mental model. The mental model of typeclasses is focused of a specific, clearly defined use.
