Good luck proving deliberate destruction -- "accidents happen" and noisy hand-waving will result in nothing beyond three-day suspensions and desk jockeying.

It extends out of the department as well -- look no further than the DA and the stable of state prosecutors for another cesspool of laziness and neglect.

This right here is it -- the DA's and state's attorney's career advancement is tied to winning cases, and there is no better way to win a case than having the PD on your side. PDs that curry favor from their judicial counterp

China briefly blocked GitHub (for whatever reason) and the tech establishment screamed bloody murder. I cannot even begin to imagine how it would react to it being MITM'd.

It does kick the can down the road, but it kicks it pretty far. I'm not the parent but your question is completely valid -- trying to get dependencies of dependencies sends us down a very deep rabbit hole. This is usually where dynamic

The closest analogue to tabs is their split pane view. I don't fully understand the rationale behind shying away from tabs, but reducing cognitive load/context switching and reducing CPU/RAM strain seems to be the desired eff

The rationale is that the more successful divisions of corporations support the existence of less successful divisions, and more successful corporations support the existence of less successful corporations. This is socialism -- social owne

To add more context to this -- the markets have been sliding since Sunday due to Chinese intervention in the markets (including raising RMB reserves for Chinese banks), and there is a lot of shakeup expected from the lifting of Iranian sanc

Honest question -- why are they using PATA ribbon cables in the new NICAM codec box? Surely SATA would be more reliable and easier to administer.

You'd be surprised how stressful it is to break up with someone. You don't want to lose a friend but it is in your best interests to do it.

That sounds like an excellent way to freak people out and preemptively break up.

Seems comparable to the divide between Go and GccGo -- largely identical but conceptually very distinct. I don't know of anyone voluntarily using GccGo.

For reference, it would be prudent to review the swift-evolution Github repo: * Swift 3.0 goals[1] -- 3.0 is scheduled for late 2016 and it will bring a wealth of ABI and language stability improvements, and significant documentation improv

I was under the impression that they intend on moving everything over to Kubernetes, in massive multi-thousand-host clusters. Granted, the last I heard they had trouble scaling it up to hundreds of hosts, but there it is.

All new code is in ES6+ rather than CoffeeScript, which is significant.

How do you reconcile urban sprawl with the sorry state of urban transit? Wealthier residents categorically avoid urban transit in many major municipalities because they are generally unsightly (dirty, littered with ads) at worst and general

Probably unrelated. Many companies that work with Canadian data are required to keep it within Canada as mandated by the Canadian government, as has been for a fairly long while. This allows those companies to use AWS rather than moving ove

I love how the commit day is the same as the last one -- January 6. I'll be damned if C doesn't look like arcane magic to me, I can grok some/most of it but fitting it all in my head would take a herculean effort. Maybe it&#x

I have been extremely impressed with Google Play Music, I use their web client on a daily basis. I did not know about YouTube Gaming, it looks very interesting.

I have found the exact same thing in Uber drivers -- questions like "How was your day?" are commonplace, and some have chewing gum or other amenities.

Local monopolies are usually the rule rather than the exception, with global monopolies rarely (if ever) occurring. This makes me wonder if Lyft can leverage the backlash against Uber and achieve success in areas hostile to Uber but not hos

What is the likelihood that millions of people across the globe have worthless VHS tapes due to decay, and worthless VHS players too? One can only wonder -- will we notice before it's too late?

It's still one of the most terse and transparent languages around, plus there are tons of jobs for working with it. I quite like Go, Python, TypeScript, etc but Ruby is in a league of its own when it comes to short and sweet. It's
