Because we aren't trying to win an argument here. It isn't about being in the right or winning, it is about successfully running a country.

I agree, and I don't blame the left as much as I blame the right. I do however think that exacerbating the divide is a bad thing.

That is were it is useful to have LeBron as the face of the program. To the kids, and families these aren't nebulously owned government bikes, these are LeBron's bikes.

I agree. To have someone like LeBron as the face of the NBA is fantastic. As a sports fan I hate the guy (Thank god he moved to the western conference) but as a human, I think he is an incredible role model and force for good in this countr

She is also a consummate politician, who has been known to say misleading and inflammatory things for political gain. She has also been busy steaming leftwards, a move that may endear her to young hyper-liberal voters, but does very little

Agreed. Using Finland as an example is absurd. Finland has a very wealthy, very homogeneous population. Longer school days are designed, in this case, to keep many of these kids in a safe environment for as long as possible.

It occurs to me that letting the wound scab over first would also protect fast replicating cells from UV radiation.

At least you learned it (and from the same textbook I used in school. Dope!). It seems like a lot of universities treat their networks classes like an afterthought, but it is such a critical part of computation, and an incredible way to lea

Feels inevitable though. As soon as some developer gets it in their head that they have found the next retirement community, hundreds of condos spring up overnight. What's worse is when things don't pan out, and you are left with

My first inclination was to dismiss it as a gimmick, and really it is a gimmick, but it is so damn cool that I want one, especially if the Api's are relatively good.

If they are on the up and up and that really is the problem. I hope it is though. I was getting really depressed at the idea of switching to something else.

I don't understand how this happened. Apple is a company that built it's empire on paying a premium for reliability and ease of use. There have been mistakes in the past, but this is something that should have been caught immediat

Sure, but are you differentiating between run of the mill bitching, and actual serious concerns? Because if I whine about x internal library in stand up, that is probably not important. But if I come to you in person and tell you that x int

Well we wouldn't want important services such as the MTA to run out of money and turn into a dysfunctional and corrupt mess. Edit: I have a love/hate relationship with NY and NYC in particular.

This doesn't match my observations at all. In fact, way more importantly, often what is being shouted is, "we are creating more technical debt than we can possibly handle by doing X in Y way to meet Z deadline, this is going to bi

I don't really care. It seems like a reasonable response. But why single out marijuana? There is a rating system for customers, and this seems like it should fall under that.

Comparing these shoes to Uber's issues seems a bit odd. Particularly since there isn't anything all that amoral about them.

If these shoes really can provide a measurable improvement in times they probably should be banned. Otherwise it will go the way of swimming, where a bunch of world records got set before they ended up banning those full body suits.

I guess I agree, but covering companies like Google or Amazon or Apple or whatever, no longer feels like "tech" journalism. It isn't niche or easily categorized anymore. It is just journalism. Much like covering Exxon isn

The lack of public trust in science is a real problem, and mostly unjustified or misdirected. That said, nothing reinforces the evil scientist image like irradiating puppies.
