This are the failures we know. But what about what do not know? About failures which did not happen and which may happen during combat? Hopefully the Navy is allowed to fix these problems right away - as opposed to waiting for lawyers to fi

Why would someone check binaries in a repo? The only time I came across checked binaries in a repo was because that particular dev could not be bothered to learn nuget / MAVEN. (the dev that approved that PR did not understand that eit

I have the same feeling. It seems to me these copy/move semantics are done for performance reasons, and at the same time are very hard to follow / use / implement correctly. Today I would rather use C or assembly language tha

Nit: when anyone dies in a hospital the money-makers are the health providers, not the drug-makers. Health providers (think “non-profit” hospitals and medical centers, as well as clinics) have the biggest operating profit margin and return

If you really want to find out the reasons why USSR failed I suggest reading “Collapse the fall of Soviet Union” by Zubok or “Collapse of an Empire” by Gaidar. They are easy to read books. Said reasons are quite different from what is going

I agree with 95% of what you said. The distinction between capitalism and free markets is very important - and most people conflate these two concepts which leads them to be manipulated. The only thing I do not agree with you is a minor qui

In this case the PE firm would have been better off not getting a loan to begin with - it would have kept the interest payments to itself. This looks a lot like selling some bad assets to some sucker investors. But the question a lot of peo

Depending how bad the situation is, you could help your friendly neighbor. Some Marines say that Marine's best weapon is the Marine next to him. Do not discount the help you could get back from helping a fellow neighbor.
