Meaning they are in a prime position to edit out all of the honeypot, Left-Wing instigators and other pot stirrers at their leisure.

You're bashing on C while saying that Rust should be C++.. Not only has what you want been done for decades now, it was done in a way that is 99% compatible with C. Rust is cute, but there is no niche for it and the fact that Linus Torvalds has a stick in his ass about what he thought of the C++99 standard doesn't change that fact.

Not necessarily, GP could just be pointing out that whether they unionize or not, that Amazon warehouse isn't going anywhere which is a very pro-union stance.

The Gold Memberships are on sale somewhere every other month. If you ever pay more than half price then you're an idiot.

It's developer adoption. Mac's lock software vendors into their "App Store" with it's god awful crippling terms of service and use Objective-C for their core API language, Chrome book again locks you into their app store and pumps out hardware that is barely adequate for web surfing. Microsoft is the only major player still agnostic in regards to where you get your software and do I even have to mention how much better MSDN is compared to literally anyone else out there in regards to documentation?

My guess is that it's a file trigger. :"You're not supposed to be here, so if you are here then something has gone terribly wrong". But then there is nothing stopping you from going there other than the file not being readily listed.

The underlying value of bitcoin is it's liquidity in anonymous markets. A bitcoin is worth X KG of cocaine\ecstasy\LSD because that is how many equivalent dollars it would require for me to acquire the bitcoin. So it's not just speculation that gives it value. If I want anonymous transactions, I use bitcoin. The value my dealer ascribes to that coin depends on how much he can sell it for after the transaction is complete. He may choose to sit on it, which is where your speculation comes in. But at the time of the transaction, the value of the coin is based on the goods that I am able to trade it for.

That initial value by the way, along with it's market penetration, came from Silk Road which is what every other crypto coin is missing and why bitcoin will never be unseated as the defacto crypto currency king.

Obama was President for eight years. He was the bigot putting the spotlight on race for almost a decade. Trump was caught in the backlash of racial tension that should have gone to ol floppy ears. Trump was the laziest President we've had in my life time, he didn't do a single thing while in office had zero leadership skills and pretty much spent the whole term golfing. Which makes him by far my favorite President to date.

The only way to fight these businesses is to make them unprofitable. I take a combination approach depending on where I am and how I'm feeling. The trick is to increase their business costs. The most obvious way to do this is to waste the call center employees time. Every moment their on the phone with you, is time wasted where they are scamming your neighbor and money lost. Another way is to increase their employee turn around. You can do this by either shaming the phone agent or being outright abusive to them. This approach isn't for everyone, but when you look at the cost centers for any call center model, you'll see new employee training is undeniably one of the highest pain points. Increasing their stress this way may also degrade their performance and cause them to lose a sale they would have otherwise closed so keep in mind the compounding effect of this approach

Successful based on what exactly? Even here in the US where we have effectively done jack all to curb the spread of it, the survival rate for this "virus" is well north of 90% without any interdiction the vast majority of the people infected never require ANY medical assistance much less hospitalization. So what exactly are the metrics of success regarding mass hysteria?

If you want to "slow them down" then you need to poison the well so to speak. Have your brother or a similar looking cousin tag themselves as you and vica versa, rotate your facial hair and hair styles, switch up your sunglasses dye your hair, maybe curl it or cut it off, trim and don't trim your eyebrows and most importantly NO VISABLE TATOOS. The idea here is to give them so much conflicting data that any pattern established on you is going to have enough false positives to be near worthless.

Do you know how much Geek Squad makes on just setting up desktops for the nitwit's in this country?: There isn't a school district in this world that has the has the manpower to walk some Arts Degree or Business Major parent through plugging in the color-coded-only-fits-one-way peripherals. Then you have scenarios like in my office where a user calls up in a panic because their computer "just stopped working" when in reality their toddler ran off with the HDMI cable to the monitor. No, you want everything in a single portable and contained package. That means laptops.

Now who's being racist? If you don't think they're sweet and docile toward their husbands then try dating one. It'll blow your "Loud mouthed Mexican from the projects" stereotype that you learned from watching too much TV right out of the water. But they sure as hell aren't going to put up with this Soy infused effeminate male culture that is running rampant through the US these days. Men are expected to act a certain way and to make the right decisions when the answer isn't obvious. It's not a power trip, it's to take the stress of big decisions off of the Women, it's actually part of the "treating her very well" that you observed.

The introduction of the word Latinx has nothing to do with fear of misusing the gender form, as you pointed out it takes 5 mins to learn context in this case. It's a direct attack on the Latin Male Machismo culture where Women are still considered docile and subservient to Men. Language shapes thought, if they control of your language...

The people that this business is targeting are borderline vulnerable persons. I promise you that any ads they put out, are going to glamorise recording studios or hair and nail salons. They're product isn't bank loans, it's the idea that you can get rich by working 4-6 hours a week recording tracks on your 7 year old Mac Book and pirated copy of Avid Pro while half stoned off your ass.

That absolute audacity of pointing out the Velocity of Money theory in an article about a virtual bank is the closest thing to middle finger in an ad that I have seen in my life. I feel we all should buy Mr Alcorn a beer. He was clearly told to write a promoted article that he wanted nothing to do with and got his shot in. Well played Sir.
