The other way to look at it is that state universities are ludicrously profitable, but the boundaries are drawn in the wrong place.

I don't really see how it could be that, since manufacturing in the USA is more valuable today than it has ever been, has a higher output than any other country but one, and more than some other continents, and makes up 1/3rd of G

I think the other commentators are really understating the extent to which Google beats Microsoft on realtime collaboration. In Office 365 you can see that someone else has opened the file but you can't see their changes until they Sa

"Docs ... nowhere even close to Word ... in terms of feature set ... really shine, though, is in collaboration." Contradiction. If your key feature is collaboration, GSuite is decades ahead of Office.

So I just tried to replicate the query for the restaurant Da Nang Quan (which is in Oakland California) and this time it actually makes a sensible interpretation of my question ("Danang Quan") once out of five times, and got close

Indeed, "free memory" is the biggest waste of money and energy imaginable. Unless you lack the memory necessary to do something else, you shouldn't care. If the question really needs answering, the poster should just get a h

I think you’re drawing conclusions that might not be warranted by this data. The rent survey is fundamentally different because it’s rents reported by large apartment management firms, not all private leases. We don’t really know what’s goi

The idea that housing always goes up in price is nonsense so you’d be right to be skeptical of “get in now” urges. If anybody said that about stocks they’d go to jail but for some reason we don’t regulate marketing if housing-as-security th

You didn't really describe the process. At Google the process of performance evaluation is really simple, if you're not wanting to be promoted: you write a short self-evaluation consisting of up to five projects. For non-promo c

Again, the only thing that seems clear here is that you don't know how to read an RFC. The only "must not" in 8.8 is the prohibition of changing the destination local parts. "must not" appears nowhere else in sect

You don’t seem to understand the standards you are complaining about. You are using mail submission, not relaying. RFC5321 specifically says that it does not cover submission, and defers to RFC4409 (3.6.1) which specifically allows From hea

It seems like HN has lost religion on open standards and freedom of user agents. If my MUA (which happens to be Gmail) can receive, interpret, and display a certain type of payload (which happens to be AMP), then good for me. It is nobody

That's what SB827 does. If a property is within the given radius from a transit station or a high-frequency bus line, minimum height limits are imposed (between 45 and 85 feet, depending on other factors) and all design controls (park

Part of the point of SB 827 is to reduce CO2 emissions from transport by building at walkable density and increasing demand for existing mass transit services. Building a house in Mojave does none of those things.

It isn’t a mandate to increase density. The proposed law removes limits. It doesn’t mandate anything. Existing limits are preventing market forces from working. In Berkeley there is a subway station surrounded by a five-acre parking lot. Th

In the LLVM case you can see that PGO overrides the inline hint. And if you’re not using PGO you don’t care about performance that much anyway. The best way to find out if your function was inlined is to build it as if for release and then
