The United States is the only advanced economy in the world that does not guarantee its workers paid vacation. You can guarantee it yourself when you accept a position somewhere. But once again we have leftists in the media assuming that

The incorrect and intellectually insufficient narrative is: The goal, she said, is to ensure the safety of visitors to the province. That's not the primary goal, or I would say even the secondary goal. The primary goal is obviously taxes

From the research I have done, the majority of Afghans want peace to the point where they would accept a Taliban strict rule of law over the continued war. Its confusing, but it just shows the war really needs to end. And so would have th

I don't know about open plans making people more susceptible to sickness, but on my exit interview on Friday, I mentioned that I thought the way we had done open office was counterproductive. I like the idea of pods though, where QA, BAs an

For me, xml and other types of config files can be hard to debug because everything is a string. IDE/smart editors help out a lot when you have types.

The problem in languages like Java, C#, etc..is that best practice would be to wrap up the string in a class, but that's a "heavyweight" solution and developers are lazy. But these "stringy" bugs can be nasty when the wrong string is passe

This might sound like small potatoes, but a big gripe of mine about Eclipse is the code completion. Almost every other decent IDE (and even advanced enough editors) doesn't wait for the dot to offer you code completion. I never understood

What I don’t get is why anyone would oppose a bill that makes affordable healthcare accessible to more people. Ignoring the philosophical debate for the time being (something as a non-American, he at least tries to understand), his premis
