Literally a single page? Static content? No, Django is not what you want. You want to hand-build and hand-tune that page.

It's probably more accurate to say reform was more his marketing hook than his genuine interest in the first place.

All you really need to do is publish good work and pay 6 cents a word for it as promised. Writers will beat your door down if you do that much.

Don't let the ridiculous paranoia on this thread discourage you. Writers you actually want to publish will look at your terms and submit. 99.99% of the people with "concerns" don't have anything you'd publish anyway

We played 4 player Warlords in our dorm at Ga Tech years after its era. There was a trick move for each castle and we abused the hell out of 'em. :-)

Remember, though, America has a critical shortage of programmers and we desperately need to allow more to immigrate!!!

My stepdad operates a network of privately owned ATMs. You wouldn't believe the hoops he's had to jump through with banks to keep them stocked up with his own money.

You're dreaming politics as you want them to be, not as reality is. Not to mention delusional interpretations of what I stated. We'll talk after the returns in November.

GP is correct, you are incorrect. It's right there in the SCOTUS decision itself, spelled out clearly and unambiguously.

How often does divorce lead to bankruptcy as a side-effect? Will that influence the ability to collect? This seems like a pretty sketchy idea just on the numbers side of things.

A recess appointment would make it an ironclad certainty that a Republican would be elected president. It would make enough voters, including moderates, angry enough that a Democrat would stand no chance.

They also decided when they gave Republicans control of the senate.

No, it really won't happen. It really, seriously will not. "Nonsense" "Trash" "Drivel" You're not OK with opinions that vary from your own. You language is pretty clear on that point.

And I feel you've been social engineered to believe opinions you disagree with are harmful. So here we are. Fewer YC female founders as a result of this thread? Seriously????

I vouched for your flagkilled comments, maybe that will help unkill them. While I don't agree with much of what you say, you're presenting your ideas in a thoughtful and respectful manner, so I don't personally feel they shou

There are a lot of common patterns in history we should avoid repeating. "Suffering consequences" for truth telling should be one of them.

There's what "should" be, and then there's what is. The simple truth of reality is that a lot of music is only available through soundcloud. Smart? No. But it's how things really are.

Cool. I asked a couple friends, and one has a friend who is a professional science historian, so waiting to hear from her and I'll pass along any response she might have as well.

Yes, Facebook, full of incompetent engineers. I'll never understand why HN is so desperate to believe something that clearly isn't true.

Another interesting look at the subject is the movie THE SOCIAL NETWORK, which is rather explicit about the topic. The film starts with Zuckerberg being called an asshole and ends with the line "You're not an asshole, Mark. You&#x

You could try asking this on reddit, in particular /r/askhistorians. One of my favorite subs, and they provide great answers to similar questions on a regular basis. Their related FAQ answer on historiography books may be helpful

Wow. I'd loved to have seen this presentation, and in particular a recording of the Pepsi exec's faces as they decide it's safer to go with the consensus of the group rather than to speak up.
