They missed the largest reason completely. It is because their main customer is there on business, and their company, not themselves is picking up the tab. And if the company is picking up the tab, there is absolutely no reluctance to get t

There are many teams that have very similar jersey colors to grass. Moreover, what is even more impressive, is there are some astroturf fields that aren't even green [1]! And the first down line works just fine on that as well. [1]: h

Have your kids ever used that? Because I know growing up (I'm 23, so not that long ago) that was my parents policy as well, but neither my sister or I ever used it. a.) We were both responsible enough to make sure if we would be drinki

I've been following darkcoin since the day after it was released, have talked to Evan (creator), and I really do not agree. [0] is only temporarily true as pointed out already. [1] doesn't support what you said, the about us NOT s

The thing is though, at a cocktail party the people you are talking to likely already know your profession. So if something on biology comes into conversation and you are a PhD biochemist, your insights likely should carry a little bit more

The idea was to highlight the smart aleckness of your response, but my goal clearly failed. But I'm really not quite sure what you are even trying to argue at this point. The original question posed was how to respond to the comparison

I can't disagree with you at all, though I don't necessarily share the same level of contempt for javascript. The thought of creating a "new" and "fixed" language to replace it brings the xkcd comic on standard

While I agree that the statement is tautological, it isn't necessarily irrelevant. Consider this. People who are released from prison are significantly more likely to commit another crime landing them back in prison than the average pe

I'd say "it is kind of high schoolish" to change the phrasing of my statement by adding the "Oh ya" and "so haha" making the statement sound silly by word choice, and not actually countering the argument w

The difference there is civil vs. criminal. I absolutely would support it if they were being charged with fraud, as in your example I would be charged with assault. But a civil suit for such a small dollar amount typically goes to small cla

The way you phrased that sounds to me like you've been programming for a significant amount of time. If that is the case, the Java of today offers so much that a younger Java did not, and I suspect you would have had a more unpleasant

Knowing amazons customer service, I would be floored if they would refund you the difference. A couple weeks/days? Maybe maybe not, depends on which rep you get honestly. But a couple hours? That would just be cruel for them not to.

I'm a little confused by why this was even an issue. Why couldn't he just setup an A record for both domain.com and www.domain.com, and in his apache/nginx/pick your server config file 301 redirect www.domain.com to doma
