Lyft has access to some pretty good data on where the roads actually are and if there are any closures. Looks like they are already contributing back, which is awesome. Something I've never heard being done, but could be very helpful f

From that story, it doesn’t seem like calling 911 was the problem. It was tweeting about it.

Do they actually ever use it? I know it theoretically means that CBP can search anyone’s home in NYC without a warrant, but if they never actually do it, they might get shot down in the courts if they ever try.

Those are some nice and lofty ideals, but I’m talking about the implementation and not the ideal. It’s implemented according the constitution which is just a piece of paper and as such cannot make anyone consider or consult about anything.

Even if people are misinformed, it’s still democracy. There’s simply no other way. Maybe it will destroy the country, but at least they will have done it themselves.

It also means their finances are public so you can see exactly how much management is taking home.

You will most certainly get donwvoted for it. That said, for people who might think of homeless as "not nice", consider the fraction that are truly problematic and the ones that you might see around, but not really doing anything

That sounds like a problem with the accessibility APIs then. I'd imagine that the script that replaces the DOM in-place also uses History API to tell the browser that this is a new page. At that point the browser should announce that i

It's a minefield of potential bugs: this.$todoList = qs('.todo-list'); This bit will only work if there's only one `.todo-list` on the page and it'll break if you try to use more than one component. c

Looking at the framework-less ES6 implementation makes me hope I never have to maintain code like this. https://github.com/tastejs/todomvc/blob/gh-pages/examples/va...

It would be more beneficial for communities to not pay the "dealer tax". Why do we need to support a group of people whose job can largely be done by an app these days?

I don’t know, kids being kids is just another word for getting in trouble. I certainly wouldn’t want kids roaming around my property if they are anything like I was at that age.

Agreed, interns are extremely expensive and anyone who thinks that they are cheap labor is not aware of the day to day details. Only reason to ever have interns is if you want to give back to the community and grow your senior talent. You m

That's funny, I haven't heard of Karkov before, but where I'm from Stoli is bottom shelf so I thought it's one of the fancy brands. Guess not!

I think the question is wrong so no answer is going to make sense. Parts of life are indeed a competition, like work, but in those limited domains it’s easy to tell who’s winning - it’s who’s making the most money. Happiness doesn’t even fa

It's a 20% paycut, but a 50% increase in free time! I'm doing the same thing btw, taking every Wednesday off and I love it - it breaks up the week and having the whole extra day for fun projects is totally worth the money to me.

Having kids when you're not ready for them and getting cancer or into a car crash are two very different things, I hope you can see that. And if people change their opinions when they end up on the opposite side of the situation, those

If the civil rights act requires over 1/2 votes to extend it and it doesn't gather that much support, maybe it should sunset. The budget votes are different because they require 2/3 of the votes which is what allows the minor

Other countries have solved this issue simply by automatically forcing an election if a budget is not passed. Their representative are somehow able to overcome ideological differences and pass legislation once their jobs are on the line.

But they could, though, with a small increase in complexity and cost. People didn’t find it worthwhile because the grid in the US has been fantastically reliable, until now.

Sorry, I mean polling for the ready register, not interrupt.

Another infrequent toe dipper here - say you need to send some command to a peripheral, wait for the device to acknowledge it, then send more data. The naive implementation would poll for the interrupt or just go to sleep, meaning no other

It’s my impression that the bottleneck isn’t the last mile technology (wireless, copper or fiber), but the interconnects between ISPs and the rest of the internet. This is why Netflix can be crawling in the evening while you’re getting the

I’m happy to join a nation wide health insurance pool, but only if it excludes smokers and people with other harmful lifestyle choices, like obesity.

I wouldn’t say that it’s a problem with the browser, rather the implementation of the site’s design. The browser could of course be helpful and increase the click target size to some minimum value, but it would just make the development com

It seems to be a problem with any televised debate - the people debating have no intention of finding the truth or changing their mind, instead it’s all about convincing the viewer by appearing to be “winning” the argument.

Human brains survive exclusively on glucose, according to your theory they’d die too.
