Or maybe some of us are holding the single disc that came with our computers, from which we've installed both OSX and Xcode. But no, we're probably just jerks, and out to get you.

I can't point to a "similar legacy of birth defects suffering and eviction from the land" in conjunction with any other kind of disaster, up to and including earthquakes causing millions of deaths. The 'league' of a disaster in your head is

All of the 'nuclear disasters' in history collectively did far less ecological and environmental damage than the BP oil leak last year. People tend to rate dangers they don't understand very well much higher than those they do.

No it's not. The long-term environmental impact from fukushima is far smaller than that from the BP oil leak last year. The extra radiation being received by people who live a mile from the site is on par with eating two bananas every d

I sincerely doubt the code is even 5% of the effort that went and is going into making this company. They're building a product in one of the most heavily regulated sectors in a market with an enormous barrier to entry. Dumping the entire c

I'm sure many of them are. But equally many are mere functions of human nature. The long-term impacts of individual actions on the power of the police-force as a whole are both non-obvious and very slow . In particular, I really doubt that

A lot of misdemeanor language is intentionally vague, to allow for officer interpretation of the situation. As in every walk of life, some take that liberty further than others. The justice system is designed to handle this sort of misappli

Really? You think this is part of a careful long-term plan, motivated by a fundamental characteristic of municipal power structure? I would lean toward 'officer applying vaguely worded rules to make the law behave as he feels it ought to',

I expect you're being funny and ironic, but I use my editor way more than I use my OS. Generally speaking, the OS is a platform and the editor is a tool.

You can reproduce any repository state that you (or anyone else) have stored. You can do it simply, reliably, and quickly. That is not in doubt. Merge is not a tool for reproducing a canonical state, it's a tool for combining two or more

>That is intrinsic to most tools that dare call themselves "source control". Bullshit. 'Merge' is one of the most complicated operations in every versioning system. I'm pretty confident svn is 'inconsistent'. Or is that too niche?

That quote by the author says 'I expect this behavior'. It does not give some use-case that would rely on it, aside from the use case of 'I use git, and incorrectly assume that merges are transitive.' More specifically, if they pulled the

I've only been asked that question in an interview twice, and in both I asked why that would matter. I walked both times (away from a decent offer in one case). What's being tested is not 'how did your previous employer value you?', it's 'h
