   I lost my mom in 2001. One week after 9/11. I was 6. I often wonder if I would have been a better person if she was there.

   I also know people who work there. Very talented engineers. I find it highly unlikely that they have been duped. And even if they are, they're sure as shit still making money out of the deal.

   I'm all against rigid company culture, but google naming needs to be improved. Variables are consistently named better at google than the products they are written for.

    Kylie Jenner has 24.5 million twitter followers that presumably think somewhat similarly to her. I'm pretty sure that her thoughts on this matter are indicative of a larger trend that an investor would be wary to ignore.

    I think it's highly controversial considering how split the country is on the issue. It wouldn't be controversial if say, 80% of the population voted for him. But they didn't. Half the country did, which is precisely why it i

    Great. I'm sure they all had reasons to vote for a man who said "grab them by the pussy." That doesn't make it any less of an endorsement.

    Voting for an openly sexist person is extremely controversial. I don't find "I hated Hillary so I just didn't vote" controversial at all.

    Maybe it's a smokescreen to divert resources away from potentially damaging climate research?

    Agreed. I think the effects are seen more in whom a person associates with. People who wear and are particular about a certain subset of clothing tend to appreciate other people who do the same.

    It entirely depends on how you structure your data, so asking for help in this regard is essentially asking someone to do it for you.

    There's no "algorithm" in that it's the same way you traverse over any tree to produce output, a la compilers.

    You've missed the point. Orgies are fine. Drugs are fine (or at the very least your choice). There is however a huge contrast between smoking a bit of pot and going to an explicitly organized orgy with an enforced ratio and being fed M
