I think it depends on the state. We don't have a national healthcare system (disregarding a couple programs for the old or very poor). Obamacare laid down only the barest of national standards.

I live in Arizona. My employer only offers high deductible health plans with a pre-tax health savings account. So, I pay ~350 USD per month for the plan to cover my wife and I. Then I also contribute to this health savings account, my emplo

The biggest thing I like about intellij over eclipse is that it uses the java and maven versions I want it to, instead of ecj and a bundled maven. This probably doesn't affect many, but was constantly a problem on some weird legacy pro

i think the unique thing here is feedback gathered from other devs. note the percent markers. eg, here's all the auto-complete possibilities, 80% of devs chose java.util.List, only 3% chose java.awt.List.

The persons finds bundled malware acceptable. If they sell software, I'd like to avoid it. This is how I interpreted the question.

Windows does have virtual desktops...just not the way X allows. The main thing that bugs me about Windows's desktops is that it is given a logical display surface compromised of all the display units. Whereas with X (going by my use of

What do you feel is reasonable to pay for a decent used car? What do you feel is a normal amount of money to have just laying around, ready to be invested in a car? My experience looking for a used car in the greater phoenix area says you c

I use xmonad when I'm on linux. Now that I'm required to use windows, I use python-windows-tiler[0]. The one thing I sorely miss about xmonad is its multi-monitor support. You get nine workspaces. Each of these is monitor independ

I got that you were going for a "Tropic Thunder" ref, but it doesn't fit. It sounds like you're saying ebay is stupid, but the TT is satirizing actors pretending to be stupid. And, TT gets away with the bit because i

Until java 7 you had to write: List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(); It feels silly to have to write the type parameter twice. But now you can say: List<String> list = new ArrayList<>(); It&#

Yeah, I think it's important not to throw grep away. Ack is really for when you don't know or can't be bothered to explicitly mention the (several) specific files to search.

One thing I miss a little is that ack has the super convenient: ack --java "foo" while with ag you write: ag -G"\.java$" "foo" But yes, ack and ag feel pretty identical except for the speed. M

I use ag[2], which is pretty much the same as ack, but even faster. The other day I was using it to find all instances in all projects of a list of problematic method names[1], in case anyone wants to see a real world use case. [1]: http:&
