It does in a reasonable language. That's my point.
Interesting that those low-restriction states have such low violent crime. In fact, those US counties with zero murders (about half) have the most lax gun control laws.

Were the premise of your comment true, those other states should be the ones with outlandish murder rates. We have guns, we don't abuse guns; what's up with the high-gun-control areas being so prone to such violence that when guns are available they're so readily abused?

Google Maps in the U.S. has the avoid tolls option as well. I'm not the poster that previously brought up this issue, but I'm happy to use a toll road if it saves me significant time.

You're now contradicting yourself:

>In Gradle, this is immediately understandable to everybody

You pulled an easy example to defend Gradle for the exact problem you just complained about.

>You may not want or like to learn another tool and that's fine.

It's not about like or want, it's about having the wisdom to recognize a poor solution before investing time in adopting it. OP fell for the hype. Maven works fine for me, thanks.
Good question! In 2.0 we only use one of the fields for the index lookup and then use the rest as a filter. For 2.1 we’re planning on augmenting our execution engine to enable making use of all the fields in a more efficient way. We have an RFC[0] describing the way our inverted indexes are designed, though not everything outlined in that document is implemented yet.

I would add that shadowing someone for a day or two while recording everything and taking notes would be better than that，and actually doing the work even moreso. A lot of the time the problems people mention are not the root cause. It should also be said that feeling the pain and looking further upstream can be more effective sometimes so more interviews along the chain might be useful.

But this is definitely something you should talk about with those directly involved.

As others have noted, the pricing is really the odd thing here. AWS seems to be moving to value based pricing rather than cost based pricing for some of its niche products.

I agree, and will expand with this:

Codified rights are effectively statements of belief of a government, to which they are binding themselves. As a statement of belief, there's no legal structures or arguments upholding them. They are simply installed by declaration (either dictatorially or by some measure of consensus) as an official part of the government's world view.

I'm familiar with that specific case but it's an exception to the rule. The OP seems to think that extra-judicial killings by drone strike are a common occurrence and the evidence does not support that.

I'm not saying I support it from a moral standpoint but I don't think it's fair to call them extra-judicial except in a few cases.
This seems unlikely given that the captain was looking for a new position as captain on one of his company's new LNG ships. You may find section 1.8.1 of the NTSB report[0] interesting; it goes into more detail about the crew than the report you linked. Maybe more relevantly, section 2.6 details his decision-making.

> It’s optimal to exercise options in some circumstances (deep in-the-money puts and sometimes calls before ex-dividend dates).

I was referring specifically to call options; I guess that wasn't clear. You're right, there are occasionally circumstances under which a person might want to exercise a call option ahead-of-time, but as a general rule, it's sub-optimal.
Certainly there's a lot to estimating in software dev, but I'm talking about when estimates are regularly wildly out of whack. Where someone or a team regular estimates something will take a few days but then it takes several weeks or months it indicates there's a problem or problems somewhere.

Maybe requirements are shifting too much. Maybe there's a lot of hideous technical debt. Maybe the wrong technology is being used to build the product. Maybe there are people on the team that don't have the skill level they need.

There could be a lot of things at play there, but the point is that there may be issues that need to be addressed. When you see wildly inaccurate estimates it means the root cause(s) should be investigated.
That's fair from their perspective. Frustrating from a competitive standpoint: the most common reason for a user's "Why wouldn't I just use Facebook for that [instead of some new product]?" seems to be that all their data / friend graph is already on FB.

Does anyone know of any kind of community effort to democratize social data? e.g. ideal product: API-ified dashboard where I can view all my FB friends, IG followers, Twitter followers as well as every single piece of content (tweets, photos, etc) that I have permission to view on each respective platform. Standardized in a public format, live updated, and consumable by other apps (if permitted by those apps' users).

Super technically challenging (given that much of this data would be inaccessible without well-maintained brittle web scraping bots), but seems technically possible.

But I guess such an effort could run into the same scrutiny as the reasons IG shut down these endpoints... :\

> Off topic because this service is a logging service to log JS errors in production. It's not related at all with how JavaScript handles errors.

Logging errors can be done in <100 lines of JavaScript, so if that were the value added of this service, they would be in trouble.

The value of this service lies more in the ability to replay state so you can debug JavaScript, which is absolutely related to how JavaScript handles errors. If JavaScript handled errors better, this wouldn't be necessary.

The "right to life" is seen in the objection to a government killing a citizen for no reason. The argument is that, self-evidently, it's wrong for a government to do that. So there must be a right to life independent of the laws of a country or the whims of its rulers. Sure, a theist would claim that God would in particular object to capricious killing, but you don't have to be a theist to claim it's self-evidently objectionable.

And I guess you can argue that some do not recognize universal rights, but it's not a compelling argument to just point out what some people think.

Homelessness in the United States has been, slowly but steadily, declining over the last couple of decades, although it's up about 1% this year. It's not getting better fast enough, but the general trend has been slow movement in the right direction. In 2007, there were 647,000 homeless, and by 2016, there was down to 549,000 homeless.

That said, you live in NYC, and so for you the homeless rate has gone WAY up over the last year, to around 4000 people from just 2800 or so last year.
I’ve done something like this at Microsoft in 2002. Except in my case it was a multi-user system and each row represented a logical user, or a range of users in a range partitioned space.

The 2nd amendment states that the right to bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED. This implies that the right to gun ownership predates the constitution because you can not infringe on a right that doesn't yet exist. Thus our forefathers saw it as an inalienable right that predates our nation.
Ah yes, the "I have to do evil things because if I didn't, someone else would" argument...

Just think about what you wrote: "our enemies". Why do you (whichever country you are from) have enemies in the first place? What did your country do to make others hate it? A lot of people seem to focus on how to defend against "those who hate us" without spending a passing thought on the why of it.

Solving "why" also solves the "how", but those who profit from conflict have no interest in the former, as their livelihood depends on the latter.
> The US and USSR/Russia did fight a good number of proxy wars throughout the cold war and beyond but those are distinctly different than the kind of all out war I think the original poster was referring to.
But they did fight them, including direct conflict with eachother. Which answers the upthread comment “If you have nuclear, why do you need anything else?” which was supported with the claim “Nukes prevent any war from happening between any powerful nation.”

Nukes don't prevent “any war” from happening between powerful nations, though they do seem to have some utility in restricting the escalation of such conflicts.

(Now, you could argue that unilateral conventional disarmament would leave no choice but to escalate to nuclear war, which would improve deterrence and prevent even small scale conventional, politically-covered attacks, but that argument would be highly speculative.)

Parallel Coding: From 90x Performance Loss to 2x Improvement
There is something to what you say but in this case, as with the Parkland shooting, law enforcement received specific warnings from family members that were not followed through on sufficient to prevent the incidents. The police likely already have all the legal powers they would have needed in these two cases to prevent the shootings if they had acted and a specific warning from a family member is a long way from treating some odd Internet postings as thought crime. Indeed there have been cases where police over reacted to much lesser warning signs. The biggest question to me is how can law enforcement do a better job of acting appropriately on warnings and tips they receive?

> No, Simpson's Paradox involves incorrect conclusions of statistical data/trend due to a mistake in viewpoint or assumption.

Not correct.

There's no 'mistake in viewpoint or assumption' involved in Simpson's Paradox.

Your example story was of someone committing 'a sequence of good deeds throughout the year' that may be part of a grander, longer plan to commit a profoundly not good deed.

Analysis of month by month, grouped or in isolation, would reveal an apparent trend that would be opposite to the evident overall trend once you include the ultimate, negative act.

From the wikipedia link I provided earlier:

"Simpson's paradox ... is a phenomenon in probability and statistics, in which a trend appears in several different groups of data but disappears or reverses when these groups are combined."
And this is why tech workers need to unionise. This petition is a weak statement that probably will have no effect. Unless these workers could pose a real threat to Google by threatening a strike action, Google has no need to change anything.

Furthermore, if the workers really stood by their moral convictions, they'd use their collective power to tackle the issue more directly than by just appealing to Google. Companies like Google are like the railroads of the 19th century. They comprise the major infrastructure of modern society. A union at Google could threaten to effectively halt all institutional operations of governments or other companies in order to influence their actions. Is facebook manipulating voters? Okay, no more gmail for facebook till they stop. Is the government going to bomb Yemen? Alright, we're shutting down government accounts.

As others in the thread have also said, I'm doubtful many of these signatories will quit their cozy jobs if Google doesn't back down. Without the group solidarity and pressure from a union, most individual workers just don't have any good incentive to put their money where their mouth is.

> The only thing that could possibly give the gun-control people what they really want is total confiscation of all guns

Strawmen are so unhelpful in reasonable debate.

Not all gun control advocates are either anti-second amendment, nor in favor of eliminating all guns. To say otherwise, creating a false black/white dichotomy in the gun debate, does a massive disservice to both gun advocates and gun control proponents.

Ironically, by making the choice "all guns" or "no guns", gun advocates themselves are forcing the "no guns" option to the center of the debate. As a wave of frustrated anti-gun youth become voters and reasonable political moderates look at options to "protect the children", I really think it's in gun proponents' best interests to provide a better alternative than "do nothing" on one side and "civil war" on the other.
> Do gun owners truly believe that they can band together and stop the entirety of the United States military anymore?

Note that the US military is sworn to the constitution, not to any current administration. When anti-citizen measures are proposed, the military aligns with the citizens.

I'm really confused if PC gaming is a winner-takes-all market. Most of the people I know (let's be honest, it's probably 90%-95% of your friends) play games (AAA, bigger indies, the "household names") on Windows and only a very fervent minority plays on Linux.

I personally have been using Linux on work computers and personal laptops (almost) exclusively for.. I don't know, 10 years? - but my "gaming pc" is still on Windows and I'm not in the mood for experiments with WINE or grasping at the games that run on Linux.

Does anyone play major games on Windows and Linux? I'm really excited for the idea of Linux gaming, but it's not a thing I'm willing to compromise and fiddling if the games I want to play really work.
