First of all, bravo for standing up for yourself. I think when you grew up and given you being a guy and physically able to fight, that was probably very effective. Unfortunately schools have changed policies to so called zero tolerance po

If I believed copyright covered them, building a house based on them would definitely be considered a transformative work.

Yes. First of all people don't record or search information not to use it. Second of all, surveillance doesn't have to be used to stifle dissent, it's very existence does so. More broadly a lack of privacy creates risks for

I know that it can feel intractable, because change for the better is way slower then I'd like it to be, compared to technological progress. Discrimination may never be eliminated completely, but it can be reduced so that there are les

So I am going to try to answer your question. I think it's a perfectly reasonable thing to bring up, in a "Hi I understand that the other office allows dog owners to bring their pets in. I'm really uncomfortable around dogs,

See I'd see if I could tease a local reporter into writing a story. A system administrator that said it would or at least could be complete in two years. The benefits of Google Fiber, etc. Feasibility only matters if people are intere

Well even if it just gave you some reasonable abstraction over regex, at this kind of scale it seems useful. Plus I bet they had excellent test coverage, which really makes refactoring much easier.

Hmm...are we at the point now where someone is going to reimplement the redis server in Go?

1. You are more capable then you give yourself credit for. 2. Run your own race. Don't worry about where other people are. 3. Ignorance is a prerequisite for learning. Cultivate ignorance.

tapirl, just fyi this references line numbers like line 22, but doesn't display any numbers.

Hmm... but they never admit wrong-doing, fraud or anything they just pay to settle. And the pay out would only be if the SEC or other government body actually went after them. I'm reasonably sure there would be a way, and even if it wa

Wealthy people benefit at every step of the legal process. If the sec did this, had bonuses being used to pay fines, people would buy insurance against it, and the insurers would pay it if and when it happened. Maybe that would be helpful a

Maybe, but Martin Luther King Jr. was a reverend, and I have friends who attend GLBT or African American Churches that I'd never call part of the religious right. And even within the right, there are lots of different types of people.

My understanding is that there is no longer an option to disable them as a feature as there was in 1.6, though of course you don't have to use them.

Oh so you get interviews? I get asked to do 2 - 4 hours of unpaid dev work on my weekends in order to get a phone screening or an onsite... maybe. So far that's pretty much been a deal breaker because I have other things I'd like

I guess the real question is, why does india want this land? I mean if it was all empty sand dunes, I assume there would be no problem. One answer seems to be water. Both India and Pakistan face issues with limited supply, and there is a

Not just useful, necessary, when it comes to things like structural safety. You need a building code that get's updated to address issues civil engineers face. These laws are the api for building things. It's unjust to make the la

My understanding (and i I'm wrong, tell me) is that if you try to serialize or save to disk something with a bitfield directly, you can have big problems.

I think it's helpful to focus on when things write to a shared resource or utilize something that may have been changed elsewhere. Any subsequent read of that resource may change. In face, in a poorly designed system you could read a

I think there are regional differences to be accounted for. NY VS SF Bay may actually be more similar then, say somewhere in alabama or ohio. And I suspect things are very different in the UK, though probably not as much as in eastern eur
