The comment you are replying to is using the pigeonhole principle to cast doubt on your data by saying that there are more Americans with income over the 1% threshold you cite than can fit into 1% of the world's population. I dug into

A brief dig didn't get me to any cited data. They refer (without link) to "Global Rich List", which might be http://www.globalrichlist.com/ . Scrolling through all their infographics, I finally get to this: &q

That is definitely horrible, and I think it should have been given more attention. However, the main difference I see, as to news coverage, is the first example happened in the USA. If the latter had happened in the USA, it would have recei

I don't want to pretend debuggers aren't useful... But I haven't used a debugger in at least ten years. Production Go for the past few. I debug with good log messages. Of course, not everyone's problems are exactly like

Because that would result in poor performers simply getting passed around ad infinitum. There are companies where this is the de facto policy, and it's pretty bad for all involved.

Plenty of anti-vaxers on the right, and the left makes plenty of fun of the ones on the left. Not really the same as climate deniers.

Nit: "exponentially" does not mean "really", as in "really small". It means increasing (or decreasing) at a far faster rate than what it's exponential with . Often time, but any metric can be used.

I wish we could keep upworthy-style titles out of academic news... Or just out of news entirely. I do my part by not reading articles with this presentation. Unless it's about celebrity twins. I'm all over that shit.

No, that's not all it does, though you can certainly use it to do that. This service runs a series of build steps on your source. It's an arbitrary execution engine with container building dressing on top (UI, CLI, etc). One of
