   Ah this makes sense. I was sitting here trying to imagine a fan that is integral to the toilet itself.

   I haven't had any issues using the "Mac port" of Emacs here: https://github.com/railwaycat/homebrew-emacsmacport I installed it with the x86_64 architecture. EDIT: Was more explicit in architecture nomen

   I feel like they really gloss over the fact that this crew seized a French man-of-war: > At that moment they had the extraordinary luck – or providence, as the Separatists saw it – to spot the Hopewell passing on its return journey, and

   Wow, PG is pushy in such a way that really shows his dedication to the team. Really interesting to see.

   No they don’t and that’s, to be very frank, ridiculous.

   Facebook did or a developer at Facebook did? These are very obviously different concepts. Given that the aforementioned repo sits clearly under that developer’s Github Account and NOT Facebook’s, it seems fairly likely that this is a develo

   I’m not sure what’s crazier to me: asking someone to demonstrate a live proficiency of an abstract skill that is only tangentially related to that actual day-to-day activities of a role or just assuming that because someone has some high cr

    This is only true if you insist on installing with OpenMP support. I can think of maybe 3-5 packages, most relatively low use, that have intricacies required to install.

    I think maybe once in the past 6yrs I’ve had an issue with `brew install R` and I’m a power R user (upgrade regularly). How we were you attempting to install? Build from source?

    Highly inaccurate. Even if you look at the data provided there, it’s 2 data points with an insane spread. Check out levels.fyi for something more accurate. You’ll see L6 engineers make $500K+.

    This is untrue. A Level 6 Engineer or Manager and higher makes $500k+ VPs likely make millions.

    Your edit is just as useless. Leaving NATO is not an inconsequential action nor do I see abandoning "The West" to be something likely to be well received by US voters. No one got caught up in meaningless semantics. It's just

    This interpretation of this "obligation" is true of any "obligation". "Obligations" are inherently a social capital forcing function conception. They can always be violated so this point is pretty moot.

    I always recommend Martin Gurri for people looking to model the present state of the US and, in particular, new media/communications platforms impacts.

    I can’t imagine how quickly they would be laughed out of a court with the argument of “you can’t split up our products, you see, the icons are all thematically the same!”

    I can totally understand how rev-share can be better in comparison but I don’t think your argument here addresses the constraint of greater government revenue derived from the rev-share model.

    But it’s not. There is a claim that this is true for India but N=1 is not very generalizable. It’s also not clear why we should believe that a rev-share model both brings in more gov revenue but also somehow prevents the TelCos from being o

    Wage != cost. It is just one component. Not sure of your definition of “developed world” but the median wage (less than average) of the US and other OECD countries is typically much closer to $30K.

    That only cost you $18K/yr??? Not so sure.

    It’s probably closer to 70M but that’s probably absurdly off too. I bet there’s 70M people in the US alone who use Google services for valuable information. GMail alone is massive.
