Do what most people do: pick a bin at random and throw everything in there. It's likely everything goes to the same place anyway (and the bins are a lie) or there's a separation process that will handle it for you. Before you down

This article completely fails to address the reality of visiting South DeKalb. Go drive around in Google Street view and you'll see abandoned commercial property after abandoned commercial property. Businesses struggle to exist there.

So the solution to a problem of unaffordability is to have Uncle Sam pay for it and take it out of the tax payer's pocket? That lady couldn't pay for her expensive education, so I should? Since I graduated 15 years ago, the publi

I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not, so I'll pretend it's not. This is the broken window fallacy. You're not creating jobs, you're destroying wealth.

I completely disagree. The complexity and risk of a change goes up with the square of the size of the change. Having moved from upgrading when forced to (almost) continuous upgrading, the number of moving parts in any given change is smal

He died recently and I'm helping his lawyer transfer his money out of the country. I'll email the lawyer and see if he might be willing to donate some of the royal estate to a humanitarian cause like this.

I actually like this feature. If I truly don't need a field, I leave it out. If I do need it, I have a clear definition of what it is. This feels so much easier to work with than untyped scripting languages where I basically get a ha

I have a similar experience with my children. From an extremely early age, my daughter has "tucked in" toys to bed, rocked them to sleep, etc. She was NOT taught to do this, but just did this as play. My sons can't seem to
