I'm not sure you know what a dichotomy is, but alcoholics span the range from functioning to absolutely crippled, and everywhere in between. Alcoholism is a dependence on and addiction to alcohol. No more, no less. Jim Koch is able to

I've said this in the corresponding reddit threads in /r/beer and /r/homebrewing, but I've met Jim Koch on multiple occasions in multiple settings, and I've never seen him not hammered. He's a functio

Thank you for the primer. Can anybody comment as to why FIPS mode in OpenSSL is considered harmful?

I bought it and played it. I logged 14 hours on it over three days, and then I put it down. It's a game that sucks you in. Fantastic game, though!

My intent was to expand upon the idea that it's only a business tool, and direct somebody looking to get into ERPs on how to get educated in them. Taking a course related to ERPs, or for a business user, will get you not very far if yo

While you may know what ERP stands for, you're missing the bigger picture on what modern ERPs do. They aren't specific to a domain--they do everything from managing manufacturing processes to keeping the books for retailers. I&#x2

As I said below, there are many different externalities associated with Airbnb, and it's nigh impossible to even begin to know them all. I was providing a common example--it wasn't an argument. My intent was the educate on how eco

> There is an externality, but it's still smaller than the total benefit Benefit to whom? And how can you say that? Nobody knows yet what the total cost of externalities and benefits are for Airbnb. You're also thinking about

The customers aren't the ones being exploited. What you're missing is what we in economics call an "externality"[1]. Let's say you rent out your apartment through Airbnb to somebody. Well, now what you've done

This is the thing that worries me the most about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies--because I want them to succeed--there are myriad laws surrounding money transfers, especially electronically. There are tax implications, as well. There ar

Well, capital gains would be a different set of taxes, but this is essentially how other currencies work, as well. If you earn income, you earn it at the exchange rate at that time--even if the exchange rate takes a dive in the future.

Right, so please add some summary of changes/content to this. I don't have time to go through SVN commit logs, but I'm interested in Go and use it in some side projects. I want to quickly be able to say, "What changed? C

Because the Fed is not bound to 2% by its mandate, like the ECB is, they're free to alter that number as they see fit. Typically, during recession, you'll target a bit lower of inflation so as to stay the purchasing power of the u

The Fed isn't a branch of government. They also typically target 2% inflation, a la the ECB. The difference being that the Fed doesn't have a specific requirement to target it, whereas the ECB does. Edit: They do the targeting thr

This seems to me like another case of the all-too-common, "We don't understand basic trademark law, so we're going to be petulant children about it." This attitude has also run amok in the craft beer world, too. It'

That's not anywhere close to prior art. Syntax control highlights words based on their syntactical unit, not just doing a *ly grep.

The way they deal with 4-way stop signs isn't "unspoken," it's the frigging law [1]. That law is exactly the same as every other state. This stuff is covered day one of driver's ed. If you "break the system,&

Alcohol labelling laws are much more stringent than food labelling laws. Good luck, dude. I hope you don't have charges pressed against you.

Angel investing means that they buy equity but don't have input on decision-making. VCs buy equity but do have input on decision-making (usually sitting on the board). I meant it in that context. If that terminology is different betw
