Except that the current increase in partisan voting began in the 2000s. The 50s were closer in the mid 70% but for the period since partisan voting was under 50%

To go this route you'd need to delegate substantial decision making power for technical questions. Most companies don't do that, and plan to have unicorn managers with both skill sets. The ratio of tech to people skills depends on

Party line votes were historically more rare (under 50%). That has changed dramatically over the last few years and is a belleweather of the deep divisions in the country. There were always divisive issues but there are also a lot of boring

Estonia gives everyone a smart card they can use to digitally sign things. Obviously someone can steal your card but it's pretty hard to forge otherwise. It's a solved problem, just nobody wants to fix it.

Its not an unreasonable metric, if a round trip through Stack Overflow is in your thought loop then you will be significantly more limited than someone who doesn't need that. If you are doing something very obscure then its reasonable

I was speaking as a pedestrian not as a motorist. The cyclists don't stop for pedestrians and will try and weave around you. They also don't follow any of the signage or stoplights.

I've had more near misses with cyclists than with cars in Toronto. While I'm a huge fan of tolling the QEW to encourage more transit - Toronto roads are already pretty hostile to vehicles. Driving downtown is a high stress activ

While the amounts he mentioned were extreme, gas stations needing an extra turn or that are a little further up the road generally have to price their gas lower. Its quite possible these gas stations will have a few cents of extra pricing

It's still heavily colored by your history. Using someone else's Netflix was really an eye opener. This new algo driven world is stifling.

I can only watch shows they recommend though! You get stuck in a local maxima with no way to escape. God help you if you watch a WWII documentary. I so rarely find a title I search for that I don't bother with that anymore.

Unless your buying top of the line Intel parts AMD is going to have more performance at most price points. It's the only logical decision unless you use AVX-512 or your workload is single threaded.

Streamers are on the other side of the contract. A shareholder of a record company thinks those are in the better position. This advantage is completely negated if you can't get exposure only to the record company.

They aren't hedge funds and shouldn't be speculating in public companies. Shareholders of record companies want exposure to music labels - not streaming. Very few conglomerates work long term. If the shareholders want to own a dif

Microsoft in the 90s used to hire on talent and wall off anyone who "didn't get along". They could code in peace and their manager handled outside communication.

The closed boot loader is a red herring. Unless you have the underlying RTL source the hardware could do anything - no secret boot loader required. Open source without open hardware is a false sense of security.

Delay slots are merely the pipeline of the uarch peeking through, its bad practice because you'll probably want to change the pipeline depth at some point. Other uarchs have them but they hide them from the public API. VLIW only remov

A lot of us were around for '08, and while more rare there are still some holdovers from the original .com bust. The exponential growth of the field makes it skew young but you shouldn't assume HN has no wisdom at all on it.
