Full disclosure, I own a significant share of Disney, not significant in the sense from the perspective of the company, but significant from the perspective of my portfolio. Against the advice of my broker I own Disney and Microsoft as indi

While I agree, I marked the emergency vehicles as being in violation of the rule. My interpretation being that such a rule would not be enforced even though it was technically violated.

Python is easy to use and easy to start programming in. Much easier than the other alternatives you mention. This from a guy who uses python but does not particularly care for it. I love me some curly braces and hate significant whitespace

I agree that deaths of tourists on Everest no longer get much coverage but I think that has much to do with the typical suddenness of thier deaths. If an American thrill seeker was lost on Everest or slowly suffocating at the summit in a ti

I respectfully disagree. While the dead boy was a tragedy it only got coverage because a handful of powerful photos made it marketable. Perhaps there is a similar macabre marketability to watching people slowly dying in a cave or in a mine

Having worked on projects sponsored by "three letter agencies", I also suspect that the cost of the trash cans is potentially recovery for unbudgeted and uncompensated requirement changes. If the navigation station on the plane ha

My view is that many/most of these products would be successes at smaller companies but at Alphabet they are not hockey stick style game changes. When your product is lost in accounting rounding errors it can be hard to justify it to t

Wait, so this is about a virtual avatar identity project leader possibly being the alter ego of one of the other project leads? I just naturally assumed that to be the case after doing a search on "Asahi Linux" as I knew nothing a

I'm sure there must be some back story here. What are these people's concerns? They seem to believe that HN is a bastion for harassment. Of all the forums I read, this seems the most benign by a large margin.

I thought the idea of Facebook was to connect people with people. Did consumers really want "news" and other corporate content in their feeds to begin with?

Other than for entertainment, setting an AI to have/mimic a personality seems to me to be pointless skeuomorphism.

I always take "profits" with a grain of salt. It is so easy to manipulate them and in the end they are a highly leveraged statistic. For example, this "staggering" drop in profits is attributed to one time "workforc

When you are allotted work, is it in bite size pieces, or are you being given larger more sweeping features? You seem to enjoy solving more tactical problems and if you are given more strategic problems then perhaps as a first pass you migh

There are plenty of homeless on and around Pine Ridge Rezervation in SD. You can rent a nice 1br for 500 a month. There are plenty of opportunities to put down a 10k used doublewide or live in a large ranch bunkhouse yet people are still ho

I'll give you four examples from my family two who ended up homeless and ultimately dead as a result and two who did not. My dad and his brother both served in the Vietnam War. His brother came back with mental health issues that lead

Change my mind then. I have family that works on a Reservation. I have family that have been homeless not just almost homeless. I have relatives in the service and friends who have been assaulted even murdered on the street. I have relative

I'm not sure how that is relevant here. My wife lived in SF for a month and was next to homeless. She lived in CA for an additional month before that.

I dont know anything about Hawaii but Alaska and many other places with high Native American populations have high homelessness because substance abuse, mental health issues and poverty are a plague on them. Homelessness is a problem on Pin

Items 1 to 5 and a general demand to be in a place drive homelessness. I dont belive housing costs really have much to do with it. Since the 70s places like SF were destinations and cultures people flocked to without being prepared for. Det
