I live in a suburb of LA and roughly 70% of my yearly water consumption goes to irrigation. Another 5% goes to the pool. You could rip all that out, quadruple the density, and get the same water usage.

This reminds me of what happened with BPA. The chemical companies use to replace BPA is at least sometimes worse than BPA. But no one seems to care.

Yeah, I don't use it for Whole Foods. I already have an American Express blue preferred cash back, which gets 6% on groceries. I only use the prime card for Amazon, restaurants, and places that don't take American Express.

Still worth it for me, especially with the Amazon Prime Rewards credit card. Amazon is still usually the best price online, and 5% for Amazon purchases is hard to beat.

I find the opposite tends to happen in Java. In the pursuit of testability, people make libraries much harder to use and understand.

People are saying it isn't affected by the first amendment, but it seems pretty gray to me: Facebook is doing this because they need to sell a good story to congress. If they don't have that story, congress seems likely to bring

Freeways are constantly repaired. They just do it at night. They don't 100% shut it down, they close down all but 1-2 lanes. I used to make a lot of night trips from San Francisco to San Jose, and I ran into them pretty often.

People like it because it lets you unit test in Java. Most of the time IoC involves an interface with a single implementation and there will never be a 2nd. Note that DI is just a form of IoC and both are separate from Spring. You can &quo
