It is pretty simple to get away with a crime, just don't tell anyone about it. Ever. It is harder than you think.

Football is the only thing keeping cable alive, and it is the safety net for EA as well.
EA has a core base of suckers who will buy the same madden/fifa game every year, even better most are "non-gamers" who don't give a shit about what happens in some star wars game.
fifa was the best selling game of 2016, they can afford to take loot box risks on "niche" titles which are full of whales.

USB C you later!

Your codebase's primary job is to attract and retain top talent. Whatever the fuck you want to sell or buy or disrupt or facilitate is secondary, if you can't get people to write and maintain your code.

You could have a hideous frankensystem that grants golden penis wishes and you will go bankrupt trying to maintain it if you don't let those two skinny guys and that fat guy convert it to Rails, then Angular, then React every 6 months.

because the half of the US that really needs consumer protection laws believes that red hats and tax cuts for the wealthy are the only america they need.

basically everyone with a bank account or water bill is affected. This is an industry altering breech. There is no reason to believe you have any ability to do anything about it.

I am not being defeatist, this will cause necessary change in the entire industry.

in the US it is $10,000 in any number of transactions OR "any suspicious amount" which is to say "for any reason at all"

I have played with the SDK which is simple and straightforward, in a few hours I wrote a "channel" that streams menus and content from my own server. My 3 year-old can use the menus. .

The roku also accepts rest calls for pretty much all the remote control functions, and you can add "launch parameters" to your custom channels, effectively allowing you to add arbitrary rest calls.

So basically I have a local picture menu that you can run from a browser to launch movies on any of my TVs, using fully supported and easy to understand roku APIs.

This makes it basically the only viable choice for my household

The federal regulations on them include provisions that the company receive "no immediate advantage" from the activities of the intern... in other words, they can't do real, profitable work for free.

Not that the law is actually enforced.

But if the company is willing to skirt employment law in order to get something for nothing, they are going to fuck you once you get hired there too.

between my first kid and my unplanned last kid, my counts halved... after I had 2 vasectomies. The first failed... the second "succeeded" only to fail 3 years later. Now I am up to about half my initial count. Woo.

when I am reading javascript in code review I always say "Threequals" for the === operator. It hasn't caught on... People in code review still groan when I do it.

Khan has tons of interactive content as well. Yes there are a bunch of youtube videos curated there but the curator problem is one of the things that TFA dances around solving.

oh also, I have tons of records that are over 40 years old, which still play fine. I have 0 CDs over 10 years old that still play.

I am not some hipster (maybe I am?) I have a cheap ass turntable and mostly I subscribe to a streaming music service. I buy Vinyl here and there, mostly as displayable, hold able music art. 20 bucks for an album is too high, but 20 bucks for a collectible, playable statue of music is pretty decent. It is just pure nostalgia, but I am not even old enough to be nostalgic about records.

Texas has a statewide law preventing HOAs and Municipalities from banning solar panels. There are tons and tons of panels up in conservative areas.
