Not a lawyer, but if this specific issue is important to you, could you define it in your contract or by-laws somewhere?
872.
by mahyarm 10y ago
Sue a contractor for not upholding your contract with the federal / state government? Like road building or whatever else.

Yup. "Speed of the programming language"

by mahyarm 10y ago
In my experience programming speed goes like this: - 1x benchmark - C / static C++ - 2x slower - pure virtual C++ / objective-c - 3x slower - statically typed GC languages (java,go) - +6x slower - dynamically typed GC languages (j

That is a mismanagement problem there. Why would new permanent income flows not get allocated to support the new flows? Municipal bonds backed by future property tax flows in the one of the wealthiest cities in the USA is pretty secure, so

All of those new buildings and people will result in a far higher property tax revenue base since they are new units not starting from a 1980s prop 13 tax base. From that you can build new schools, hire more teachers and police and develop

Well it's not too late to go to a larger place :). I've found it isn't that different, especially when they are a few years before IPO. AirBNB has a really small engineering team for their size too and are very web heavy. If

Well don't feel too bad, we also pay $2000-5000/month for 2 bedroom apartments.[1] California also has a tax rate at the same level as Canada. Being a digital nomad you can keep the tax rate and cost of living pretty low. But typi

If the carrier keeps it a free for all service to sign up as a general congestion incentive, like utility rebates to use more energy efficient light bulbs, then I can see it as a net positive.

Universities already have an unlimited quota for H1Bs, so at least the teachers can get it.

by mahyarm 10y ago
Those people are a small portion of H1B visas, if at all, and all it means that instead of a %50 to %100 chance that they get it 'this year' doing it, it's a %100 chance. They also have other options like an L1 visa which is

If your income comes from the USA, it better to keep that than to lose it.

Total after tax compensation is still better in the bay area although when you compare total compensation at companies like Google and Facebook. So if your in the USA already it's would be a minor downgrade and a huge move. Immigrati

It's a financial calculation like everything else. Don't assume they do it for purely emotional reasons. I chose to buy because: 1. It's significantly cheaper after tax deductions compared to renting in my area. 2. This is t

Very very shitty microphones, so the statistical risk is significantly reduced! And the hardware might not support doing that switch in software.

It's the side effect of running a very learn architecture. It also has a side effect of not being able to secretly subpoena your chat history after the fact too. Now with E2E encryption they can't even do that easily.

I do something similar too, but I have around 1TB of data, so a full restoration will be painful. Remembering to plug in an external hard drive is irritating so I want to get a NAS that my laptop auto connects to, like time machine. What d

This is why you want client side encrypted clients who treat your NAS/Cloud Account/HDD as dumb storage. This way it's easy to immediately verify on your client computer that entire CRUD cycle works fine, and continues to wo

Germany can also get away with more solid wall materials due to a relative lack of earthquakes I think. I could be totally wrong.

I want SSDs to replace my hard drive storage and store my entire photo collection of 1TB. I want it on SSD because the performance in photo library management apps is a lot better on local SSDs. And I want it on a laptop. So a 2TB SSD be

Depends on your expat crowd and reason. The british expats to NYC and SF are usually educated H1B immigrant types and are very pleasant people. The expat who goes to south east asia to retire on their blue collar pension might be a differe

So it sounds like your area fails in the infrastructure department pretty fundamentally. There are many other cities where it never blacks out, the water and sanitation has been great for decades and the roads are maintained. Those place

So why do you still get enough clean water and electricity? Not have brown/black outs and so on?

FAQ time: I see references to a “core” in the code, what is that? The core is referring to our internal C++ storage engine. It is not currently open-source but we do plan on open-sourcing it also under the Apache 2.0 license once we’ve had

The core C++ part. They plan to open source it later, but who knows what will happen in the meantime.

you could do if let method = classInstance.methods[methodKey] { //Put some ugly method argument checker thing here method.execute() } It would be typesafe, not dangerous, and statically typed.
