Trust doesn’t matter if you have the most powerful military force in the world. You think the middle eastern countries surrounding Israel trust Netanyahu? Nope, but they sure fall in line and keep the negotiated peace because let’s face it,

Isn’t that a form of affirmative action that the Supreme Court took issue with?

That ratio is declining by the day as more and more join the renting class. Olivia Chow’s victory in Toronto is testament to that. She ran on increasing the vacancy tax, making evictions more difficult, building 25k rental homes, etc. No wo

Billboards have run before (“Can’t afford a home? Have you tried having rich parents?”, etc). A protest was organized but very few showed up. None of this work when the ruling class is benefiting from the lack of housing. You need something

Happens all the time in my marriage and still going strong. Sometimes you just accept the way the other person is, doesn’t mean you don’t point it out to them in moments of anger. But not necessarily a relationship-ending signal.

I’m in the unenviable position having to study a build system in Make for a very large codebase. Are there existing tools that generate the dependency graph or aid in understanding such a build system?

My bank (in Canada) has limits on how much I can withdraw per day, per week, per month. Furthermore, there could be a delay of up to 5 business days before I can get the money to its destination. And that’s for money in the thousands only.

I don’t understand, what is the point of doing this? Eliminating ads? Expanding functionality? It’s not clear from the description what is to be gained from jail breaking your LG tv. I’m perfectly satisfied with it now.
