Those articles reaffirm more the extreme political mentality of vox and slate than any political leanings of the director. That these websites practically thrive on conjuring up issues even where none exists should surprise no one.

If that’s your problem, you can watch the ending and then rewatch the whole film.

Companies wouldn’t touch a GPL let alone an AGPL with a 20ft pole. And if people can’t eventually use it for work, people don’t tend to use it at all these days. projects with no users fizzle out.

not just you, I’ve been seeing this a lot lately. somebody references a well known phrase or an idiom and then somebody comments “Sure go ahead and compare this with that!” I’m not sure why you feel the author is trying to use vietnam to le

Over the last 10 years, did people decide to interpret everything in the most cancel-able form? No sane person before would have read this sentence and thought that the author was comparing licensing changes to murder

Non American, but I’ve been using realclearpolitics to get aggregated views on things from both the sides. I’m surprised most americans get their news from one single source, worse yet from a single late night talk show. I also follow reall

Two questions: 1. What/Where is this market? What’s the forex equivalent of NYSE or NASDAQ 2. Even If both the banks hold the other country’s currency, (which in most cases they won’t), how do they know what the exchange rate is.

Where is this exchange? Clearly if the price changes can be reported with such high precision, it needs to be based on a solid value from an exchange or a set of real exchanges instead of an aggregate of all the airport guys exchanging cash

Fair points but why is the dollar rising in the first place? Isn’t that because of the artificially high oil prices because of the war.. since middle eastern oil is sold in USD. Countries need to buy dollars to buy oil. That’s why dollar is

There’s also a significant reduction in pay for the new offers being handed out. Somebody I knew joined a company for +50% 4 months ago. The same company is offering +5% for the same role now.

You do realise that these leetcode rounds are virtual and there are “agencies” on the internet that would take this test up for you? When I interview people, I have to make sure that the person actually wrote the code by asking some arbitra

OP here. I’m in India. People spend 2-3 years grinding leetcode questions too. So you can imagine how difficult the tests have become over the past few years and how pointless this whole test is.
