That is more or less correct. It is a way for state governments to enable "their side" to win easier. It will get worse as the demographic shift continues to strangle the GOP's support in swing states.

The majority of the left supports decriminalization or legalization as the other commenter pointed out. Pretending it isn't a partisan issue is silly.

Which is the problem.

This is largely correct but not something the US's religious right is willing to accept. Decriminalizing prostitution and criminalizing the person doing the "buying" in public is the maximum that is viable without encouraging

Management made demands that exceeded resources available and kept blocking my vacation to try to meet deadlines. I literally left with 100% of my vacation accumulated.

Do you genuinely believe that when many laws are written by interest groups and past with little modification? And yes, the average race us corrupted by outrageous lies. I have literally never seen an election at any level that lacked outra

Technocrats lack the skill set to win elections where everyone lies outrageously. If they had such skills, they would be common American politicians. One if the few benefits of China's collectivism is all the politicians have to share

It isn't the same policy anymore and it borders on dishonest to claim that it is. The investment is no longer substantial in public R&D. Instead, it gets funnelled to investors who don't explore beyond the minimum.

You'd think that but in FL at least, there is ~6 potholes on my route to work every day that have been left there for months.

It is blocking people from converting to paying customers because as soon as we see an issue like that we know it isn't viable because we'll get denied.

And that is the requirement enforced by IT in many companies with security audits.

by AFNobody 8y ago
You clearly never worked at a large company with one-size fits all security directives such as "never store the password in plain text".

I am not here to push any specific ticket. I just think GitLab should move in the direction of redirecting more resources to fixing the warts as a general policy decision. Ultimately, I am not your customer and haven't been for a coupl

GitLab should, frankly, focus on performance/ux/bug-fix releases every other release. And probably for the next 2-3 releases to get some of the warts under control. This constant push for project management features, frankly, is a

Depends on the workplace culture. Some places you can't negotiate down to 40 hours a week. Those places you quit.

Yup and if it turns out there are advantages to transition it into a real project.

It is really just an acknowledgement that buybacks are more tax efficient dividends. So now "value" companies, instead of paying dividends, perform stock buybacks. It is a tax efficiency thing, nothing more.

I wasn't discouraging milk products, sorry. I'm not really a pure "Paleo" type. I get all my fat from whole milk, the one-a-day meat dish, cheese, yogurt, and oil/butter I use to cook stuff with. One curry + vegetab

Yes. He was asking how to be unbiased about self evaluation. You have to paint really broad strokes to do that. Is it perfect? No. Do I think the 70% of programmers that probably fit this definition are mediocre? Yeah. Keep in mind I am cal

If you don't: A) Massively outperform compared to your peers. B) Massively underperform compared to your peers. You are almost certainly a mediocre programmer. If you are in the B category, it is usually pretty obvious to _everyone_ an

Unsurprisingly, when the financial incentive is don't do X people prefer not to do X. The truth is, we need to socialize the cost of child care and having children. Or we need immigration. The latter has always been the cheaper (for so
