I don't think so. The rape case really just acts as a vessel to provide standing to litigate the larger question of the reservation. Without the rape case they wouldn't have had a reason to challenge the questions about the res b

Agree and I also struggle with the docs. The examples are so trivial that they’re useless if you’re trying to use the examples to learn how to use them in context. I think the examples for any() are any(true, false) and any(true, true). F

IMO there are two problems. The first is that no one actually wants to manage that kind of access. Especially not your every day computer user. The second, related, problem is that if every app is asking you to review 20 permissions, peopl

Yeah we call them "building blocks." Instead of building specific individual features we create building blocks that we can use to implement features. The key difference is that by exposing the building blocks to customers they

Really agree with your two bullet points. When I'm doing design reviews with people those are always the things I bring up. We're not going to actually design or build for requirements that we don't have yet but we can take

That’s exactly what I want except where I am the schools are all awful for any area with houses like that. So either move to car-centric suburbs or add another $20k+ per year to send two kids to decent private schools.

I am a basic Nix user so I can't speak to much, but my understanding is that one of the major difference is Guix uses Scheme (or a Scheme-like language) for config so it's more familiar. Nix uses their own language, also called N

I don't see where the incentive to rehabilitate is? They're just incentivized to release them ASAP so they spend as little as possible.

For the purposes of satiety you are correct. For the purposes of bodyweight, a calorie is a calorie. How that bodyweight is stored (fat vs muscle) is dependent on exercise + whether the calorie is from a fat, carb, protein or alcohol (the

Yes, you can re-write it without using cat, but many people (including me) think it's clearer to read from left-to-right. Plus the mixing of sending the file through stdin and then using a pipe always makes my brain pause. I just pers

One of the issues we find is that as the number of rows/columns in a table grows, the performance of native browser tables just craters and you have to fallback to your own rendering engine using <canvas> elements. Have you pushe

Yes, that is the whole point of the markets in fact and the reason we allow short-selling. You want information from both sides to be incorporated because it will give you much better price discovery. You want people to figure out th

Yeah it's easy to stick with this kind of thing for a few months when everything is going well. The challenge is keeping it up beyond the few months when the novelty wears off, life gets in the way, and it becomes difficult. I personal

Yeah interestingly the New Yorker does not split articles with ads in the middle. It’s one of their things. I love the New Yorker and enjoy all of its quirks.

The biggest problem with UBI is political. Even if you manage to implement it you have no guarantee that the next administration will continue it. If you can't guarantee that your $1k/mo will really be for life then you can&#x27

I think you're losing out if you only look at one metric or the other. Yes, companies can stuff recurring charges into the one-time column in their adjusted EBITDA metric. But there are certainly cases where an adjusted EBITDA metric

Hopefully they have cash to cover the exercise and the taxes! Tough choice to make right when you just lost your job. The tax bill could be tens of thousands of dollars or more.
