No one will look out for the environment we live in, especially business. Try living with re-use bags for a month and find out just how inconvenienced you are...we as citizens are making these laws to live in a clean sanitary world, not Som

Nonsense! We have this law here on Maui and it has only helped lower plastics pollution and loose trash. People have all adapted to carrying re-use sacks and I hear very few complaints. It is so nice not to see shredded plastic blowing in

Yes, I occasionally spend time at our cabin north of Iron River. Cell coverage is not great except near the "bigger" towns like Houghton (Michigan Tech) and Marquette (Northern Michigan). But I love the UP and its remote northwo

You really need to visit the place of which you speak. The top of Mauna Kea and Haleakala on Maui, my home, for that matter are not living places and have nothing to do with homelessness and Hawaii. There is room for both science and the f

Well then you’d be stealing...that’s a real downside to me.

I did not know companies actually do this. I would never work for a different salary than my peers (based on location). In my small "virtual" company, most of my colleagues live and work in Wisconsin (US). I live in Hawaii, whe

This is bullshit and reflects the bias built into your own views. This is a deeply rooted viewpoint of many like you, most likely based on your experiences with your narrow network of "older" people.

This seems to have been corrected at out local Whole Foods (Maui), but the upside is that the prices are much more reasonable, for still good quality. We used to just go there for "special" items, but are doing more general purpo

"because Github was a neutral third-party without any priorities"...what are you talking about? They are a company with a purpose to make money. And when I think about some of the other possible buyers, I am fine with Microsoft.

Wouldn't this be similar to numbered/signed prints?

I really don't see why autonomous vehicles couldn't handle the first/last miles soon after mastering the open road. I think only regulation would made this a requirement.

I disagree. I am tech lead at a small company, and when we look for help, permanent (rare) or contractor (usually), big software company experience is a definite plus. At least they have been vetted to some level by others first, and have

I guess my point is premature regulation in general. In this case and with Bitfinex, citizens are deprived of "pursuit of happiness...", for what? Protection of the individual from their own own mistakes? More likely, eventual t

No, this is a simple case of over-regulation in a budding market way too early. Coinbase pulled out of Hawaii due to burdensome state regulations. I had to open a new account from address in another state. "Although we strive to pro

Have only checked Rust out a bit, but you mention C#. Does Rust have functionality similar to, and as easy to use, as Linq?

Yes this is a really useful comment. It's so good to know what your plans are, and really says something about the link. Thanks...

I mostly agree, except I still like and use XML in many cases. XML Schema validation is just too useful as a first pass validation step to verify the "shape" of a message/document. And to me, with any decent editor with foldi

Your SF example is absurd. Half the cars with stuff in them at night are not broken into. My experience in Bernal Heights is not like you describe. I agree about Tokyo. On the other hand, here in Maui, where I live now, I had a pair o

Many years ago my grandfather owned a retail shoe store in Appleton, WI (back before malls). They used an x-ray machine to aid in sizing shoes. As a kid, years after it was put out of service, I came across it in the store basement. The d
