Yes. But from what I understand, this is because Lloyd's is a marketplace and not a traditional insurance company. They put wealthy entities in contact with people with peculiar insurance needs and let them work it out.

Well, what are the other alternatives? Also, she seems to hate everyone she knows, so is the advice really that bad?

Yeah, but I think the problem with cut-and-paste recruiter spam is that it's not really an opportunity. Most of the "offers" I get don't match my skillset and would not result in a job even if I pursued them. They simp

Knuth's saying goes " Premature optimization is the root of all evil." Which is just another way of expressing the Unix ethic of first make it work, then make it fast.

What claim does the government have on the wealth those people created? Why is the discussion always about how much the rich deserve to keep based on their own creation of wealth?

This is just overblown rhetoric. I don't have as much faith as you do that the IRS is as capable as the most elite financial planners and accountants in the country. Also, why would the IRS lobby congress? Their job is to enforce the

Uh, yeah you're supposed to pay for the dates and drive. I guess it depends on who you're trying to catch?

Radio stations pay big bucks to broadcast on the FM frequencies, and yet they make FM Transmitters for your car. Why wouldn't DTV be the same?

It's not the tags themselves that are "semantic" but how they are used. The semantic web is a content-first approach, as opposed to using tags to design the structure of your page. If you're adding div's to create

Also part of the "Golden Age" of America was generational thinking. Many people immigrated to America not to become rich themselves but to provide better opportunity for their children. Even if you don't believe that rags-t

The article and the headline are typically written by different people anyway, so this title-article dissonance is certainly possible.

How are they "manufactured controversy?" Do you think that there is a secret universal agreement on these issues? Seems unlikely.

Then the productive ones (whether through self-training or hard work or both) rise to the top while the others don't. It's true that they may be less professional in the solutions they create, but that's a hard thing for non

Evolution is too general a term. Everyone believes in natural selection, because that is scientifically observable. Where many Christians (I can't speak for other religions) disagree with the scientific orthodoxy is whether or not n

It's amazing we haven't internalized this by now. 70 years after Thomas Watson's famous quote about the world only needing 5 computers, we still have people saying (in effect), "surely THIS is advanced as technology can

Yes that's the problem in the inner city: too much religion. Ridiculous.

She dictated texts to her boyfriend to type up? In my view, this is far more degrading than a "get me a sandwich" joke.

It needs to decrease over time. This girl is at the end of her high school experience, she should be handling social interactions with her peers on her own.

When does any male get an audience for whining? If anything there is a huge social stigma against men complaining about anything because of their "privilege."

It's not whether the author is going too far as a parent, but that that she is not handling the situation appropriately. She showed bad faith by not ever actually talking to the teacher. She sat and accumulated complaints about this

No, you can't. It's not that bad yet.

That's a very high expectation of teachers, full stop. What are they supposed to do? They only have influence over these people for an hour a day, which is the time they are supposed to be teaching the subject.

I am a native English speaker and Siri constantly misunderstands me. Siri has become a punchline and certainly does not have the usual Apple Cool Factor.

I'm not sure that's the point of Dilbert, although it is a recurring joke. PHB causes way more misery and obstruction than Wally. Your manager can steer your whole team/organization onto the rocks.
