Yes, there was a warrant, but that warrant must be obtained based on legally obtained information, or else the warrant is invalid as is all information gathered through the execution of that warrant. Here's an example: Suppose you have

Agreed that sometimes it's right for control-flow purposes. Hence why I pointed out in the OP thread that I've used it before. But that's not the justification being used by the code author; his justification is purely perfor

Since I see you're referencing my posts in that thread, you'll notice that I also point out that I understand that GOTO is not always bad, and, in fact, have used it before in production code.

I'd guess that it's actually quite an issue for JS heavy pages. This would probably benefit anyone doing signification in-browser apps in JS.

Server configuration (for example, how many unicorn workers was the app running?) isn't given. Without this (and the many other testing methodology issues pointed out in other comments), the entire article is meaningless.

It's unlikely you're making [net] money if you're paying to get in and getting payed when you leave.

by jtc331 12y ago
You pay to get in and pay to get out. Doesn't really seem like seeking [net] rent as much as it is efficiently allocating available resources.

by jtc331 12y ago
Because that's what balances the supply and demand. Artificially low prices are precisely what cause shortages. The kind of world you describe would far more efficiently allocate resource--even helping people to determine whether or no

There's a question though here as to how to define insurance: in your example, everything still works if everyone has catastrophic insurance. Insurance, classically understood, is risk sharing, not cost sharing. In other words taking

You're missing the point: the last mile network is shared across all of those companies. Ergo, the company that actually owns the last mile network has no competition on that last mile network and no incentive to upgrade that network.

Sure, it's valid to question his motives. But that doesn't change the fact that he's making a perfectly reasonable argument. And when we're deciding whether or not to go to war, the reasonable and valid argument should w

So what you're saying is that you read Atlas Shrugged and decided to put Rand's conception of the worst possible way to run a company into actual practice?

It might be more conspiratorial if the US government hadn't already assassinated no less than 4 American citizens which it immediately covered up and systematically lied about the age and combatant status of said individuals in order t

Perhaps the better question is whether or not it's legitimate for government to attempt to change social mores like that. As a corollary does a "behavior modification" style policy actually change how people feel? Or just how

>> "For tipping, flat-rate minimum tip (like for larger parties, and also described in one of the articles), for instance could level the field." My belief is that that will mean you rarely get tips higher than the minimum.

Perhaps the reason those ObjC fans of the language itself seem to be smaller in number by your metric is that there are other reasons for avoiding GNUStep--namely, that it's GNU. If you've grown up with OSX etc., then you're

And contrary to the OP, these results don't demonstrate a reversal of the predictors (i.e., that actually being a Democrat predicts voting for the Civil Rights Act and vice versa), but rather than we're possibly using the wrong

Yeah, actually the evidence demonstrates that an order of magnitude (or more) of people have been killed by governments than by religion. And most of those governments were (officially) atheistic.

This is because the hashing algorithm is highly dependent on integer rotate right instruction. AMD's implements it in 1 clock cycle, Nvidia in 3. So it's a special case.

First of all, Krugman is a hack. Regardless of which system of economics you subscribe to. Second, and more importantly, the idea that deflation is a bad thing because it encourages saving (derisively called hoarding) is not at all accepted
