People - and animals - just want to get fucked up. You can see this when animals get into fermented fruit. So there's been plenty of time for alcohol to get very entrenched in human culture.

Right, the outcome is not guaranteed. But the possibility of a confidence vote might surface in a psycho CEO's brain from time to time.

If your company has windows and Linux but only guards against threats on windows, then you may have a different problem. I believe you can lock a Linux box down tighter than a windows box, but then you're trading compile times for othe

No it isn't; it's two separate premises, which the author uses to synthesise a conclusion. Both premises are required for the conclusion. Neither premise is settled, and if you disagree with either, you're welcome to discard

Typically, you let the insurers duke it out; in some cases, the police get involved. There already exists legislation for property damage and unsafe driving. Indeed, the tyre-slasher is already subject to the criminal system.

Longhorn was a significant rewrite, actually. The two big upheavals in windows history were: 2000, which essentially scrapped the 95 lineage in favour of NT; and Vista, which kicked a lot of 3rd-party crap out of the kernel and added a qual

Operating system can be more robust, depending on admin skill. Let idiots configure and operate your rhel and you may not get those five nines. There are costs to it, in the form of architectural baggage and slower iteration, but what windo

Yes. Or: keep the two-party system, which degrades debate to a zero-sum game.

As an implementation detail, exceptions are usually much more expensive than just popping the stack, as computation is needed for each frame you traverse. Having both throw and return is like regex: now you have two problems.

Did you ever notice the bit in EULAs that states that maximum liability to the vendor is capped at what you paid? When big cloud goes down, you get a few days of credit. That's it.

I've had a great time discovering Fable, which compiles F# to JS or TS. The cost of moving from VSCode to neovim has always put me off, but if I could write the config in F# it would tempt me more. How far is standard ML from F#? Is th
