The main benefit to owning your own car is instant access. To retain that a significant portion of these cars will be sitting in parking lots just the same as if their owners had drove them. Queuing theory forms a mathematical basis for an

If you follow the story, then for years she was just like you. Same restaurant for years on end with no issues. All was fine until it wasn't.

It’s pretty clear she wants to follow her current path despite the obstacles. She’s been hearing the same criticisms for years now. The only change is it’s escalated from random internet people to the NYT. I don’t really see her as a victim

It’s been abused a lot to call elections when advantageous for the incumbent. A decade old law made for more regular term durations but there are still loopholes for the ruling party to unilaterally declare elections. Failure to pass a budg

Let’s accept your premise that she wants to be treated as a sex object - and still do tech. Why shouldn’t she have that right?

Interesting. Just looking at the diagram of the 2019 Silverado that’s a lot of mixing of dissimilar metals. In the ford it’s a pretty clear demarcation point that’s easy to electrically isolate. It will be curious to see how all the brands

Are we just going to completely ignore the 17 year reign of Jeff Immelt? GE Capital gained enough prominence to destroy the company under his reign. Jeff was the one that acquired one of the nations largest subprime lenders in 2004, prime

And a much higher chance of actually destroying the target. The US dropped more tonnage of bombs on Vietnam than the entirety of WWII, and yet random destruction is rather ineffective.

There's significantly more information in 2018 or even 2008 to indicate Amazon was worth that valuation. A companies potential has to be adjusted by risk if you want a good valuation, and in 1999 there just wan't enough evidence.

Everyone is born short housing - you need a place to live. We’re neutral on private jets though. You can get along without them. It’s generally advisable to cover your short positions.

There is no Supreme Court footage at all. They refuse to allow cameras in the chamber. There’s no law enforcing this except those which give the judges full control over their proceedings. They could let CNN in tomorrow if they so decided.

I think John Stewart’s show was a little more intelligent. His discussion with Jim Cramer comes to mind - he actually convinced him and Jim changed his show noticeably afterwards. These newer shoes exist mainly to speak to the already conve

X64 was designed with this in mind. All non-active bits must be the same value (a so called canonical address) or the processor will fault. You can’t use them for flag bits unless you make sure to clear them before dereferencing memory.

Your rebuttal is a much stronger argument than what was in the linked article. Unfortunately I could only reply to what was written there. Of course I’ve seen poor branding bring down companies so I don’t consider it a made up job. Certainl

Don't be confused by "C" compiler. This is a K&R C compiler that can compile legacy programs from the 70s on x64 machines. Great for software archeology. This serves a completely different purpose than GCC or CLang.

That is the "control room" for the entire country when in conflict, not for the missile itself. Thankfully they aren't in a direct war where it needs to be filled.
