I hadn't even noticed the floor facing video card connectors... I imagine this could be addressed by having mini display port cables that connect to external ports on the back. I agree that VGA and DVI would likely not fit. From what I

This was SOP during the George W. Bush presidency as well: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/the_big_idea... There is at least some research that conservatives value loyalty far more than liberals:

Agreed. However, the title doesn't necessarily draw folks in. The full title is "A Very Naughty Little Girl. The extraordinary life of Janet Vaughan, who changed our relationship with blood." Really interesting scientist who

Completely. I will say amazon is usually very good about refunding money if you made a mistake or got hacked so in that sense their customer service is pretty good. One time we had literally 1 million cloudwatch metrics get created because

Most seemed to have taken your comment at face value rather and as criticism of parents vs. criticism of the article re: its loose definition of 'help'...

Clearly quoting the article adds value to the conversation since several of the posters above didn't even see the relevance of referring to trump. I'd argue the display issue is more the fault of HN than the poster.

That is quite a claim. Not sure if you mean popular or electoral but that does not seem to be the trend and it would pretty much have to be electoral. Last time someone won by 80% was Bush #1 in 1988. https://en.wikipedia.org&#x2

Developers with domain knowledge should often be the first line of response for pages, etc. Noise in logs should be minimized to aid troubleshooting. Understand why certain security procedures are put in place even though they do create som

I disabled my account yesterday because I've come to the conclusion nothing on facebook adds value to my life and I'd rather not hand a treasure trove of data to our forthcoming glorious leader so I am going to miss this bug... :-

Hasn't it though? I mean the decline of the US manufacturing sector has led to an emerging middle class in many other countries. Clearly most of the wealth is concentrated in the hands of the few but there has definitely been a reversi

Anecdotally I have heard that there are various machinations like shell/holding companies and partnerships which let you functionally prevent the commercial property tax from changing and is very common because the incentives are so la

I think it's better to use cloud servers/containers once you have to run that many VMs concurrently but obviously that starts to cost more money.

Yes, I read your comment after the fact. I have been downvoted all to hell whenever I suggest buying drugs is supporting these murderers. Has the (thoroughly corrupt) PRI being back in power made the violence better or worse if you know?

I just had a conversation with my Mexican's wife's brother-in-law last week. About 7 years ago I had asked him about whether he thought legalization of pot would help or hurt Mexico. He felt "bad guys" would just change

Except that most cities criminalize living out of your vehicle. Renting a space to put your RV, mobile home, etc. is a non-trivial expense for many. I read an article about how emotionally draining it was for people to constantly have to mo

Right. Until one person gets laid off, has a car accident, wants a divorce, etc. 8000 in 12 months is 96000 so now one salary goes only to the mortgage... Now make those salaries for the next 30 years. Your point is valid in that as you mak

By conventional standards a couple making 300k should have a loan of about 3x that income. So 900k. Perhaps that is the case coming in with an existing property but do they really think they will have 30 years of prosperity and one parent w

I was specifically referencing this part of advice: > No 401k Offered: > Open a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA. The traditional IRA contributes pre-tax money, the Roth IRA post-tax money. The upshot is that if you believe your marginal

I am surprised by the 90% should invest in a Roth IRA vs. Traditional if they do not have access to a 401k. I would expect the growth of pre-tax dollars would outweigh having to pay taxes when I withdrawal. Put another way, I expect my reti

Yeap, this was my average speed over all my weekly mileage. My long run would range from 7:00 to 7:30 pace and would top out at 13 to 15 miles. My easiest runs were about 8:00 and my fast pace (probably 6 or less miles per week) was from 6:
