Canada is even worse. We have winter driving for 3+ months out of the year yet no winter driving tests are mandatory. Fucking ridiculous. So many people don't realize that slamming on your brakes when you are about to lose control on an ice covered road is the WORST thing to do. Not only that but winter tires on sedans/SUVs should be mandatory. I know I'll never own a car again in winter months without winter tires in Canada.

thanks for dumbing it down. I have always been curious myself, but was always confused because everyone would get in the technical nature of it and go over my head, but assuming your post is accurate I think I finally understand it.

oh shut the fuck up. If someone offers you 2 billion dollars would you fucking refuse it? I know I sure as fuck wouldn't. He could personally refund all kickstarter backers 10x the amount they DONATED and still be laughing all the way to the bank, Is he being a sellout? Sure, but who can blame him when 2 billion dollars on the line.

I also wear 15 and don't have trouble with summer shoes (in my regular car) but if the tesla is really 1/2 an inch closer I would have trouble in that, and that would be with summer shoes. Size 15 winter boots would be impossible

ok, But I wear size 15 shoes, and even in normal cars with regular shoes I sometimes accidentally hit gas when hitting brake (fairly rare though, maybe once a month). I NEVER wear boots specifically because of this reason. If I wore boots I'd have to be extremely careful.

Not to mentiuon, if they have greasy fingers it can be really east to figure out the pattern.

I love people like this, DONT USE TABLES FOR LAYOUTS!!!! Then guess what, they use a bunch of divs as rows and cols and style it as a table, and say SEE THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER. Ok yet you used so much more css and 20 fucking nested divs to do the same thing

I have been using PHPStorm for years (from same company as IDEA) so I might be slightly biased, but when I started Android Develpment I used Eclipse for some reason becasue it seemed like the defacto standard for android development. I used it for a month and was incredibly frustrated. Eclipse seemed like something from 10 years ago, not a modern IDE, it was also running incredibly slow on my machine with a project that contained thousands of files. I then switched to Idea Community 12 and was more productive after 3 days than I was with eclipse after a month, although fair enough that my previous experience with PHPStorm helped a lot but even then their ide is simplier yet more powerful than eclipse.

For the most part sure, but where I live plenty of beef farmers use alfalfa, just not as much/high grade as dairy farmers. I see plenty of hay that have an alfalfa mix for beef cattle.

I agree completely back in the 4.x days, even early 5.x, But since 5.3 I think they are actually starting to develop the language seriously. The main problem is you have a TON of code out there, so you REALLY have to think of the risks, pros, and cons of doing a BC break. Really what they should do is just make version 6 already FIX all of the bullshit in the language and not care about the many many BC breaks. Actively release fixes for 5.x branch for a few years while people transition to the 6.x branch

Dont worry, it's actually a good thing. The questions and answers REALLY sucked, slashdot saved your time but not reading them

I dont get the point of this story. This is EXTREMELY common in Canada, and honestly if you pay sticker price for your phone/internet (from the Big 3, not independent operators) in Canada you are an idiot/sucker.

All you have to do is call up your provider, hit Cancel service, give them a big sob story on how you LOVE the service but due to unforseen circumstances you can no longer afford it so unfortunately you have to cancel. They will work extremely hard to give you discounts to something that you can "afford". I have seen people get 75% off their cell phone bill (sticker price being $120 for their package but they were paying $30)
It used to be easier, but after a couple years they realized a ton of people were taking advantage of their retentions department (i.e calling them up threatening to cancel even though they had no intention of cancelling to begin with) so they clamped down a bit. You still get discounts just not as big of discounts as before, and if they think you are insincere in your threat to cancel they may call your bluff. But even with that, I was still able to get a $70 plan for $45
