Reply on the side tangent: That is due to tipping in my opinion. Waiters attempt to be in your face all the time in the U.S. in an effort to leave a good impression, invoke empathy (they are doing a a lot of running around; let's tip t

The first proposal is extremely welcome. Still you need to expand on it I feel. But yes, I think it is becoming the dream and nightmare along with aliasing (...) of a lot of engineers. It has become ridiculously impossible to write serious

The consensus of historians is pretty clear on the subject though. However, if now a layman considers "We can't even be sure that the Greeks, at the time of Philip & Alexander" shows the extent of the damage this light &q

I am pretty sure they have considered it. Probably there is a legal hiccup laying here -- you either have reasonable suspicion that the material you show is copyrighted, or you acknowledge your algorithms and AI suck and you require crowd-s

That. CAPTCHAs are used as free labour. The only reason you don't see them everywhere is because people would stop using Google.

The consensus of historians is clear. They ignore them because they don't like to side with any single country. Think of it more like politicians ignoring consensus about Global Warming (e.g. Trump as an obvious example) or financial i

Actually, the naming there was not incorrect. Recall the Roman empire split into East and West, with West disappearing shortly after. So it was the only remaining (piece) of the Roman empire at that point and there was later an attempt to l

However, United States of America does not claim in this situation historical figures of Canada, Mexico and rest of South America to be U.S.A. nationals, or publish maps with its aspired borders including Quebec or Mexico City. For instance

That is the main worry, I would say. Less likely Github is going to flip and die than Microsoft becoming anti-opensource again (they are anti-foss/floss still I would say -- not talking about the engineers working there of course).

I don't think the argument here is against jail time. Just that the reasoning it will work as a deterrent is flawed. Unfortunately, we/I don't have a good answer to your question what to use as a deterrent. The problem is a)

That is a good question. Anyone with knowledge on the topic care to pitch in and elaborate? It seems to me it is within the rights (and "obligation") of DOJ to appeal and pursue this further. The burden to prove impact on competit

Just augmenting other replies a tiny bit: > Money sitting on a bank ledger can't do nearly as much as money in a venture capital fund. You have to be careful with taxes to make sure you don't dis-incentivize investment too mu

It is the simplest and only way to make them competitive for an investor. Anyone can buy them (that can invest in the U.S. anyways). If you tax them, nobody would buy them (risk versus earnings). To become a competitive and practical choice

Still surprised, when I hear from friends about C, C# etc codebases (for web development). There are out there. Edit: Reading through depends on what you need. I suggest you take some time to look at the tooling provided and what you need (

That is correct. The existence of some windows enable passengers/personnel to check for engine or wing damage (fire, birds, flap issues etc). The idea I am guessing is to use video. The 50% lighter just doesn't work any way you sp

It doesn't and shouldn't taste like vinegar. Same here regarding family wine production. Note families tend to share their wine among themselves, so there is some comparison. You can taste the difference if there is some additive

Since a noticeable at least portion of Mac OS users have some artistic vein one would argue for Mac OS users. For Windows my personal opinion is the average user has no idea. I think for Linux/BSD etc there is a part of users that know

It does seem they always go for the path that will maximize profits, evil (note not a legal term, but a moral one) and pull everyone down to the bottom with their actions. I am convinced if there was a crossroads with a payout of x dollars

Pretty much. Usually you run your own init that starts the desired process. If you as a process have id (pid) 1 then you need to manage orphaned processes (and zombies) and general signal handling (e.g. SIGTERM). There is a lot of cgroups a

Kind of sums up my reply. Generally, if you know or there is enough suspicion the cure is going to harm or kill one and euthanasia is out of the picture then you are liable. That's why the whole process exists about medical trials. One

This is a sign of immaturity of the field in my mind and how management forms and enforces low standards. Developers need to have some leverage to push back from these arguments. Just my 2 cents.

People care about their "football team" [party] and their small economic and social bubble. They are not good in general to see how things affect them. Fun fact: most fiscal policies have as a goal to get people to invest their mo
