Who lied? What, specifically, did they lie about? Some people died from it. Some people have long term disability from it. Without the benefit of hindsight, what would you have done differently if you were in control? How would you have jus

Maybe some other runtimes do this or it has been changed, but in the past self-contained singe-file .NET deployment just meant that it rolled all the files up during publishing and when you run it, it extracted them to a folder. Not really

The question is: "how much can they do quickly?" The question is definitely not : "what is the maximum extent appropriate and permitted by law?" If they can fire people and shutter facilities quickly enough, it won'

This says it improved significantly from 1940 until 1980, then made a turn for the worse. So it's about the same as 100 years ago, but for a big part of that 100 years, it was better.

It’s $8000 because it doesn’t work and it comes with free hardware upgrades until it works (for some definition of ‘works’ but currently it breaks often enough and badly enough that you’d have to be dishonest to say it works without a huge

I don’t agree with you that safety was sacrificed in the name of diversity or equity. We sacrificed those lives to save money. End of story.

But what evidence is there that the shortage was caused by those 'DEI' policies? For example, in 2013 the FAA Academy was shut down for most of the year (April - December) due to the sequester. They had planned to hire more than

The Supreme Court has decided what ‘the general welfare’ means, and it is not limited to the listed powers. This information is not difficult to find, as would be expected given the last 90ish years of spending that is obviously not limited

I fail to see how your link supports your questioning or your statement, could you explain it? It looks like it's just the opinion of the owner of the Los Angeles Times, a person that some might feel is heavily biased.

They are objectively bad for some definitions of bad. What do you want for them? Universal respect? Just because taking something good and making it shitty is one way to make money doesn't mean that it is the only way to make money.

They do but usually your money is gone until the dispute is resolved. With a credit card, some fabulously wealthy company’s money is gone and literally nobody is gonna cry over that.

Lowes wants you to look at the ads in the app. I would guess that most companies will not want to provide APIs that an agent could use to make that kind of query. So, the agent is going to have to use the app just like you would, which look
