Sometimes the objectives for a battle are a little more complicated than breaking through - holding actions, diversions, rearguards etc.

The British Expeditionary Force, and lots of the regular French Army, was sacrificed to blunt the initial German advance. British commanders were clear that the completely new army they were building would not be ready until 1916/7 but a mix of politics and necessity meant they had to be sent in earlier. Allegations that Britain would "fight to the last drop of Russian blood" - which had echoes of the Napoleonic wars - threatened to undermine the alliance.

The British attacks during Verdun were to relieve pressure on the French by diverting resources elsewhere. Every German machine gun, soldier and shell diverted away reduced French casualties. Given the horrific conditions and casualties there was a real risk of either a French mutiny or the Government deciding it could no longer pay the price. In the harsh logic of the time the losses at the Somme were a price that had to be paid to keep the allies in the war.

I'so bookmarking this thread :)

I use to listen Digitally Imported streams. It offers very fine granularity in electronic styles, like (ambient, lounge, chillout dreams, space dreams). Very nice for background music doing stuff. Also, Amethystium is very nice for relaxing.
She likes that I don't waste money on useless shit like everyone else but rather save such that I can finance studies at Stanford or some other good school for our future kids, if they desire to do so.

Having kids will mean I can't retire in 5 years but maybe in 15 years. In any case I have a heads up compared to everyone else. Having tons of cash on hand and little expenses gives you sort of super-freedoms other people don't have.
Whos using Mint these days anyway ?
I'm wondering too and really hope it does. It's got the niceness of Ruby's syntax with the additional benefits of speed, which would be a deadly combination.
Those servers are out of spec, then. The RFC says it's supposed to be POSIX time, i.e., always in UTC. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1952
A brief guide to the Philly tech scene
No, "they" are not. Maybe you're thinking of Software Engineering? Computer Science is supposed to teach you about the branch of mathematics called Computer Science. Recursion is a very important part of that—important enough that the need to address it early was one of the things that made Scheme an obvious choice for a teaching language for decades.
Is it repeatable, who knows?

But it's a mindset thing too. Do you "give up" and take out the biggest mortgage and car loan you can, or do you act against it and take your destiny into your own hands a bit more.
I am not one, but lot's of people. Most switched off from Ubuntu, landed a stayed there.
Original page title is more communicative (so I suspect dang will fix it when he notices):

Just a note for people outside of the States.

I've seen this before, and live in Ireland. It's a very different story here, with taxation on ETF index funds at 40% on gains, calculated every seven years. From my perspective, the 4% rule just does not count. Perhaps running a business is a better way in Ireland, for example.
Cloud Workbench
Not everything else, Rust, OCalm just to name a few. Maybe it's just recent hype of such languages, but it definitely fits very well in some situations.
The concerns are valid but it is ironic that's being served from an http only page.

The New Microsoft, Where Lie Detection Is a Killer App
This seems pretty interesting but not sure how "cloudy" it is since all I see is AWS right now.
There's something interesting to be said here. "They make {{ package }} unusable by hijacking it's name space", well who gave them that name space? I understand the whole first come first serve and all but if we played that way things could get messy real fast.

There was recently an article on HN about the "Web of Hashes" and this article got me thinking about it. Why not give each application an UUID and let that be it's name space? Give the user an option to still use- they're example- xedit while having another xedit installed along side?

I can see how this could also get messy. Just spit balling here.
