And in 2016 the Super PAC "Correct the Record" paid people to join online conversations to post pro-Hillary stuff and attack comments critical of her. It also coordinated with her campaign, claiming they were exempt from rules against coordination. That was much more extensive than a few internet polls.

Most of them are not refugees from political violence. Most of them are leaving for financial reasons. And the caravans started because Pueblos Sin Fronteras organized them and told these people their life would be much better if they left for the US. There's a reason the last one hit the border right at election time.

Tunnels take time to dig and create a single entry point that can be monitored more easily. Claiming a shovel makes the entire wall useless is an idiotic argument, especially when walls have been demonstrably effective where we already have them.

I thought it was $80 from everyone who voted for Trump?

The advantage of a physical wall is it doesn't care who is in the white house. When you rely on catching people crossing illegally what to do with them after is a matter of policy that can be determined by the administration. If you prefer ignoring the law and allowing illegal immigration this is a feature.

Note that the party was advertised as a "mansion party". I'm guessing the house you're renting isn't a mansion.

Clearly. Why not take a reasonably functional system containing hundreds of millions of people and flip it on its head so we can see what happens? What could possibly go wrong?

This is how you know our society is spoiled. People support this kind of stuff without fearing the consequences of their actions.

Yes, they had Iron Python. Then they decided to drop it and eliminate that team. Last I checked some of the developers still worked on it in their free time but it was way behind.

Which is a little annoying because if you're mixing languages the integration between Python and C# is nonexistant.

He's termed out. Gavin Newsom will be elected in November. And if you think Brown is bad, wait til you see Newsom!

Type annotations and docstrings help with the whole lack of type declaration thing. Of course that requires discipline, which is in short supply from my experience. If you can force your developers to run pylint that will at least complain when they don't have docstrings.

Clarification: It shouldn't exist because the language should just behave that way by default.

I haven't touched JavaScript in about 10 years so I'm not going to comment on that, but "use strict" is quite possibly the worst idea in Perl. I don't know why JavaScript would copy it.

Soda cans and it's just a lower receiver, but close enough:

Yeah but if we rename it and pretend we're giving it to everyone (even the people paying for it) it will FEEL like a totally new and fresh idea!
