Reading this it just seems to grant the congress the right to create a Post Office. Is this the same as a mandate to provide this service?

Simply because it's different doesn't mean it's essential. Is there an inalienable right to mail delivery whose rate structure ignores distance? Why doesn't the same right protect people from paying a premium for mailing heavy objects?

The essential service here is mail delivery, not mail delivery "under a dollar."

An unsustainably good deal. Isn't that the point of the post?

They certainly would. Just not for 44 cents.

Actually, most of the projects I work on are developed in a waterfall style. Not every hacker out there works in an Agile shop.

I think everyone is taking the title a little too literally. The "24 hours" gimmick is just a way of constraining the information into discrete concepts. Once you know 24 facets of a language, you are certainly qualified to start testing

Imagine a company that generates no revenue and yet spends money improving its infrastructure. What would its stock price look like? I don't believe that government services are lower quality than private services because of a lack of spen

How does a development boom burden tax payers? Were there no business created in the "unrestricted development?" It stands to reason that a healthy business climate generates tax revenue, instead of increasing the taxes of existing tax pa

Part of the magic of Hobbes is that Watterson never resolves the issue of his true form. To Calvin, he is a real tiger. To his parents (and everyone else), he is a stuffed animal. To sell a plush-toy version of Hobbes would make this dic

I play guitar and Guitar Hero; I enjoy them both. It isn't the same thing of course, but on the harder difficulties it does involve some of the same fretting motions. I guess I don't understand why real guitarists are such snobs about gam

If all you care about is making websites that people using current browsers can see, there's already a rich, stable technology for that. It's called Flash. An extensible, semantic web markup standard is needed if you want to create conten

Loaning people money is the best way to turn your friendship in to a business. The borrower is slave to the lender; why would you want that dynamic in your friendship?

The whole problem here is that "Evolution" means two things. It's well-verified scientific fact that natural selection drives change within a species. What creationists dispute is that natural selection drives organisms to change from one

Maybe this woman doesn't feel like a programmer. I find I can sense other developers when I meet them.

I object to his sad-sack attitude. I agree that 2 years is a ton of savings. So why the drama? I'm actually shocked that this guy is in such disarray. If he's so in touch with the reality that "the world has changed," why doesn't he get a

I think it's strange that every time a scientific discovery occurs one of the first reactions to it is, "Well, that about wraps it up for religion, eh?" Followed by dismissive comments about how religion is completely different from scienc

Remember that secular humanism is also a religion. A truly non-religious curriculum would be limited to objective truths. Theories about origins could not be discussed because while they may be based on evidence, they are ultimately a con

All you've done is taken a "Republican solution" and injected government control into it. The part of it that remained Market-based (i.e. the part that would work) would be the sole domain of conservatives.

...and under what circumstances do people pay increasingly less for an increasingly improved product? The free market! I agree that there needs to be more direct competition for health care dollars.

It's one thing to be poor. It's quite another to be homeless. Also, don't forget that at least for a while we are still free; the homeless are not destined to stay in the gutter if they don't want to. We have no castes in America.

That assumes inflation will more than double its current rate of roughly 3% to around 6.5%. That's not impossible, (especially with the way the current administration is spending money) but it would represent a major change of events from
