No, as michaelhoffman says, the passenger may purchase a seat for the instrument, but must not be charged additional fees simply because it is an instrument and not a passenger.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding. But it outlines that if it's a comparable item to other carryon baggage, there's no additional penalty on the scarce resource of carryon storage. It's no more forcefully allocated to instrumen

Thank you on #1. Missed that in my first read, I see it now.

I'm trying to read through the cynicism and understand two parts of your post: 1. What lobbyists would have written this and most importantly, why? When I think of lobbyists I think of someone having something financial to gain. I&#x27

There's no "correct" price. The price is dependent on exchange - it's a supply and demand aspect. All the exchanges do is reflect what the latest transactions respectively. You could buy bitcoins in a private transaction

A comment like this reeks of ignorance and adds nothing to the dialogue. If you wanted to vouch for the reduction of sports on broadcast television with reasons related to health that are backed up with facts or citations, rather than specu

I don't want to misunderstand your math but I might be doing so. 55 men, 45 women 80% of the men are in stable relationships 80% x 55 men = 44 men 44 men with 44 out of 45 women leaves 1 woman remaining, 11 men remaining, for an even w

Coursera, no doubt. I took 2 courses with Tim Roughgarden; they were awesome. And I just finished 2 more with Sedgewick. If you can find the Sedgewick courses, I recommend picking up his book (actually, I recommend it anyway) - Algorithm

I don't know how serious you are being, but the purpose of the interview question may not have anything to do with the job whatsoever, or it may. Either way, questions of this nature are intended to filter out people who are not interested

I am not sure if you have since pivoted, but here are 2 thoughts from a non-technical perspective: 1) I think "fork the cookbook" is awesome for a tech target audience, maybe not so much for a non-technical target audience. Forking has ins

It in fact does but I think there may be some manner of "expiry", and it is also trivially easy to get around from what I have read. This submission appears to have a /? at the end of it which may be enough to get past a dupe check.

That's naive. Where there is profit margin, there is crime. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/nation/2011-05-02-atf-ci... http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jan/27/cigarette-smuggl...

Is it not possible that, via whatever mechanism placebo drugs have positive intended effects, that they could also cause side effects?

The "Browse Ninjas" page has some extremely distorted photos. I am not sure if your tiling is algorithmic or what but it's probably not very appealing from the perspective of the people on that page (or the people seeking them out). (edit:

It does look that way, yes - some of the stuff you point out looks great and is worthy of consideration. I just was wondering if maybe we were way off base in our mechanisms - we are far from web ops specialists by any means. Originally we

rubenv - Can you comment at all on using something like monit to watch node processes - we leverage it fairly heavily on our servers but have not really gone through as many steps as you have here. We use upstart to handle starts, stops, a

I'm going to speculate (and nothing more) just based on a few discussions a friend and I have had. It seems as though with Windows 8 and the trend towards unification with the mobile experience, Microsoft is headed in the path of a walled-

OBD computers (especially anything before those even attempting to follow even a semblance of a standard) were a mess. They remain so even still. Lots of proprietary info and divergent technologies.

There's a major difference between pandering and appeasement, I think. I'm not American but my perception is more that politicians pander to religious groups to sway large voting blocks, not with any actual intention of treating religious

Currently, yes. Though I understand recently there was a preview window where some devs were given write access, which I (hopefully correctly) assume to mean that it's coming soonish.

At the risk of further degenerating into meta discussion, I'll answer your question: Downvoting privileges are opened up at a certain karma threshold. The number has changed a number of times in the past and I believe it's currently at aro

I wish I could post the video from the talk, but here are some slides at least. Good supporting talk on the pitfalls of making assumptions about how disks work, from OSCON '11: http://www.slideshare.net/iammutex/what-every-data-programme.

Seems needless, as though it is easy and obvious to discount all technical knowledge because of an association with a once-popular, now-declined site that failed for reasons precious few to do with their technology or ability as developers.
