I've been thinking about a good answer to this, but I don't know what it would look like. Code looks so different when you need to be concerned about mutable vs. immutable borrows. For example you might want to iterate over a list perform an action and then delete items after doing work. This needs to be broken into two blocks, one that does the iteration and then a second block to remove any elements that no longer belong.

That's an example of just two blocks, but if it's deeper structures then ignoring this until the end could cause you to go back and restructure significant sections of code to make it abide by the mutability rules.

The process I use to stay productive, is to write small blocks of code, write a unit test for it, compile, and then move on. That way I don't build up a ton of compiler debt...

Well you got me on the surface details there. But I think the sense of the point is still correct, in that the Republicans did not advance a plan that they actually wanted to pass. They've got the House, the Senate, and the Presidency now, so they could advance any one of those four plans right now if they wanted. I'll update my views if the plan they settle on is anywhere close to one of those four.

I must admit, I'm really confused by how impeachment works in the U.S.. Clinton was impeached for perjury and abuse of power because he took advantage of his position (and a political intern) and then lied about it.

Now we have a president who is not giving up his business interests while in office and who has already told some absolute whoppers, including the release of official press releases that were nothing but "alternative facts". Why tell such obvious falsehoods? We're all laughing (nervously) now because the lies seem to be harmless, self-serving vain ones. However, is Trump just a little insane, or is he actually finding out who is willing to say "We've always been at war with Eurasia" and who isn't?

I’m assuming you are in the U.S. and need to verify tax ID numbers to be included on information returns (e.g., Form 1099) to the Internal Revenue Service, rather than for employment eligibility or credit decisions, for which E-Verify (https://www.uscis.gov/e-verify) or a credit reporting agency might be more appropriate.

I’m aware of only one authoritative source for this, the IRS’s own “Interactive and Bulk On-Line Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) Matching Programs,” which are free of charge and described in Publication 2108A:

https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p2108a.pdf

As explained in section 14, “Enrolled users may TIN Match in one of two ways:

“a) Interactively – a user can submit up to 25 name/TIN combinations at a time during a session, and receive a response within 5 seconds.

“b) Bulk – users may download .txt files composed of up to 100,000 name/TIN combinations and receive a response from IRS within 24 hrs.”

There is more information in section 3.42.8.7 of the Internal Revenue Manual:

https://www.irs.gov/irm/part3/irm_03-042-008.html#d0e1571

The IRS allows third parties to act as authorized agents, and I expect this is what many companies offering TIN verification are doing. It’s up to you to decide if the value they add is worth their fees and the risks of sharing sensitive information (like SSNs for sole proprietors) with a third party.

Yep, I was driving at that. Cities have very little leverage in dealing with commercial operators (I suppose the bigger the city is and the smaller the vendor is, the greater the leverage), therefore no city councilman spends their time fretting over potential revenue losses from commercial property taxes.

It's far easier and time-efficient for the city to chase sales tax revenue (by attracting large retailers), residential property tax revenues (by building denser housing) and revenue from various licensing and permitting activites.

What's the lie? I'm not seeing it.

Is it a lie that the president believes this? His belief doesn't make it true, nor does it mean that its been studied in depth.

It's like when prosecutors talk about court cases, they always say they believe someone is a criminal, sheer scum, and ought to be in prison for life. In fact, none of that has been proven true yet because the court is still in session. It could turn out that the prosecuter is delusional, was fed poor information, or is simply inept.

In fairness, I did not say that the transition to 8k was easy or that any "competent film crew" could make a beautiful 8k film or leverage 8k to its max. I said that a competent film crew could soften the look if appropriate. The lazy fix for "too sharp" is to just scale down to 4k or throw a slight blur at the frames. A slightly less lazy fix would be use lenses that yield a softer focus (which I assume some of the insanely expensive film lenses can deliver).

But I wasn't saying it's trivial to leverage 8k well, just that if 8k is too much to deal with in some cases, effectively reducing the resolution seems a tractable problem.

> I'm really confused by how impeachment works in the U.S.

Impeachment requires a crime.

Lying isn't usually a crime, and as best I can tell hasn't been one any of the times Trump has done it (.. yet?). It also hasn't been a crime any of the times Obama has done it.

Failure to give up business interests is breaking precedent and confounding ethicists, but also doesn't seem to be illegal.

When we come up with something criminal (and especially if it rises to the level of "high crimes") we can hope Trump gets impeached. As yet, I don't see it, and certainly not in your examples.

Shipping greenfield projects is often easier than adding features to an existing one, particularly in languages like Scala.

I don't agree. I work on an incredibly large Scala team and a powerful type system gives you a lot more confidence to make everything from minor bug fixes to sweeping refactors.

The price paid for having to learn the complexities and power of Scala (which I'll admit is much harder than other languages) pays off in that it lowers the overall application complexity by reducing the need for a plethora of frameworks/libraries.

If you write Scala like you'd write a java/python/Go application, you'll have better type inference and a worse IDE, along with slower compile times. Not a great proposition. If you write Scala like a pure functional language that allows you to create powerful libraries and DSLs that make it possible to hack together very reliable applications, you'll be amazed.
> "alternative facts"

I think people are taking this and running at breakneck speed without stopping to look at what they actually mean by this.

After watching the first few press conferences and Kelly Anne's interviews where she said that, it seems clear to me they weren't trying to say there were more people physically at the inauguration in their "alternative facts" but what they are referring to specifically is the viewership.

It's very possible they are correct in saying this and I guess their point is "well the media isn't reporting on these facts so we are going to present them ourselves".

The process requires a majority of the House, and then it goes to a trial that requires two thirds of the Senate for conviction. Considering the Republicans have a majority in both, I wouldn't get your hopes up.
Impeachment is about politics and power.

For whatever reasons (and I still don't fully understand it, no, check that, I don't understand it at all), the Clintons were an absolute hate-magnet for the Right. Clinton's sexual relations -- essentially no different from what any of the GOP opposition leaders turned out to be engaged with, if not far less serious (Dennis Hastert's long-time homosexual exploitation of minor boys under his care, for example) -- turned out to be the hook that the GOP could finally snag him with.

In the case of Trump, I suspect there's a tremendous amount of behind-the-scenes jockeying and assessment of power. Questions over who the party (or any possible coalition or new political force) wants to see him replaced by -- Pence might well be no better, potentially worse. The question of how deeply tainted Trump's entire cabinet (and more) may be.

The GOP has been fractured for years, and only barely holds itself together. The prospects of real violent rebellion or reaction to a deposal of Trump may also be staying hands.

The workers comp example was to show that even very hard decisions can have numbers assigned to them for comparisons sake if you ask the right questions. Thus even if its hard to tell why goal setting is more valuable than calculating the volume of imaginary vases, it can be reasoned about.

Specialization is power. What profitable skill could students be learning that wouldn't have tons of side value? Creating, fixing, doing nearly anything that was worth paying for would pull the right skills into their brains and push out the useless ones.

If you need to learn to calculate the volume of a vase for an actual reason, with money on the line, you have a better chance of actually retaining the knowledge, and seeing the value in it. Autodidacts have a trick up their sleeve. Interest. Normal students can be interested as well, if they were learning things worth learning.
