We already do that in elementary and high school with logarithms, square roots, sin, cos, tan, pi, radians, e, irrational & imaginary numbers, etc. The tables are just built into pocket calculators instead of paper. Even Pythagoras is

Seattle houses are heated near continiously outside some summer hours, so the house interiors are relatively dry. In a place where you don't have heaters or ACs on a lot and the climate is humid, stuff stays humid.

I was in a rating sync once and noticed some very strange crab bucket behavior that only came from more sr Indian managers and engineers with regards to another jr Indian-origin teammate who never even lived in India AFAIK. The fact that t

Why does the CRA pension plan even have taxes on it in the first place? It's like taxing a government agency for it's budget that it receives it's tax dollars for.

It's a scale thing. A bag of globals works, until the scale of what you have gets too big, and the big bag of globals becomes a 500 variable super object, and then your build graph gets bottlenecked on the bag of globals and a bunch o

To continue with what your saying. Yeah I am already wearing a sweater, warm pants, wool slippers with socks and a beanie / hat. The hands are unexposed and I'm thinking at this point I need a different slippers that are bit more

Oh that's really cool and good to know. I can totally afford to heat my place, but it's like a challenge for myself to find a set of home clothing that would keep me comfortably warm despite it being a bit chilly inside. Still ne

The controls to get back to your proper temperature after a shutoff are unreliable. What you need is a shutoff valve on the shower head itself, so the temperature stays the same, which is not common on many showers unless they are using th

You can also just have a small shower room, with a separate door, it's about equivalent. You see this in many houses where the sink vs shower & toliet are two separate 'rooms' connected to each other.

Yeah the start to perm process to get your priority number is a 6 month - 1 year thing, and you only really need to do it once. And once your priority date is up maybe you have to stay there for 1 year.

Did you think it was going to happen when russia was invading georgia a decade ago too? How about the 6 million dead in the congo or the current active yemen bombings or the syrian war where russia and the usa had some spats?

I agree. There is too much shared state inside software dev work. I think the only time part time might work is if the person has worked for you full time for a while, is fairly established, is a low management overhead employee (low&#x2

Unless your an L1 transfer, you can still change jobs fairly easily on an H1B, because everyone else in tech is also willing to do H1B transfer paperwork. So you can quit, it just takes longer... And even as an L1, you can still apply at

Corruption that you know about... Probably a lot on the Merkel side that the public doesn't know. The people or groups who you don't think would ever be corrupt are some of the best to be corrupt in the first place.
