Cessnas crash into houses all the time. It's bad but it's no 9/11

No they don't. 3 hrs is plenty of time for a military jet to intercept a hostile commercial jet

Is Vine discontinued? My buddy still does it, at least until recently

Why do so many have that exact wording "honest and unbiased review"? So bizarre

No, they scientifically make changes safe and give confidence to make changes.

CFAA exempts warrantless searches?

Seizing a retirement account that way is pretty low. The punishment should follow the law for the crime, not allow arbitrary witholding of earned pay.

That makes no sense. Why aren't the FBI in violation of CFAA, then? Expectation of privacy defines the bounds of a search. Police searches are not permitted to conduct otherwise illegal activity Just because they are searching.

That's horrid logic. The question of fitness for existence is whether the Constitution is better than its absence.

So, that judge just stuck down CFAA for civilians too? Or only for Law Enforcement

Do you why AfricanAmericans- "happen" to occupy the lower tier? 200 years of slavery, lynching, redlining, forced unemployment, and segregation, and then letting the cycle of poverty run on autopilot.

A distinction without a difference. White people in USA spent 200 years intentonally creating a correlatio n between skin color and poverty, and then spent 50 years crying "correlarion is not causation"

A Chipotle exec just got busted for cocaine possession. Guess what the charge was, and guess what the proposed punishment is. Guess his skin color (or culture, if you prefer).

Amazon has both national warehouses in middle of nowhere (but near airports) for general shipping, and small local warehouses for 1day delivery in urban areas.

Sure, but even "only 80% of Google" in a monorepo is still bigger than the combined size of most everyone else's constellation of small repos. And the the separation of repos is based on deployment environment: Server, deskto

You can quantify it. Look at the numbers in the OP article, and thinking about how small Android must be: (1) all of Android code fits on a single smartphone (2) Android apps all have a corresponding server side.

The latrge federated something or other doesn't exist because Google chose to build monorepo tools instead, and approximately no one else's code base is really big enough to matter. Why didn't/couldn't Google build

So you've got a few small repos with good build infra,and many small repos that don't. Your overall system is still a sibling ship, and you have no economy of scale force multiplying your few people who take infra seriously

That's why you delete dead code at head (keeping archive of history) , and you have dev branches and release branches

Are you claiming that compile time defects are a flaw in the programming experience? Because running buggy code is a feature?

Is he making an off joke when he claims that all the replicants are animatronic, not played by human actors? Or were there animatronic heads used in the movie?

How can you block them? The whole point is that spammers call from unknown numbers. Double calling is just an annoying arms race.

That does not mean they store plaintext passwords. When you login to most any website you have to submit your whole password. It is usually hashed and the hash is compare to the stored hashed pasword

Message passing (and by extension Smalltalk/Squeak) suffers from LISP disease, the notion that because the system makes no constraints on program structure, it can do anything, and therefore is maximally powerful. But "can do anyt

Which of those things are not in mainstream use? We have Skype and Google Docs and AWS for collaboration and client/server computing.

I wouldn't expect anyone to know those details, but I would expect someone to follow the directions if they want it to work.

If I read that right... that Sudoku sllver only got as far as becoming a Sudoku board API, aka a object wrapping an array? And the article spends more bytes talking about whether some code is YAGNI, than the amount of bytes in the code itse
