I'd like to think that most officers really do want to make a positive impact, so I don't necessarily agree with your 'no accountability means they can be bad actors' statement...it makes it seem like the officers have m

When my company was acquired, all of our "software developers" received the title of "software engineer", so yes I refer to myself as a software engineer. My title is trivial to me, but I would consider my day-to-day act

I was trying to make the case against deterrence. You're right, it is hard to draw any conclusions about the effectiveness by looking at murder numbers alone. It seems most experts would argue against deterrence being effective though

I would never get closer than a car's length away from the driver in front of me if I was driving 60 mph; why should I act any differently when I'm driving 30 mph? Speed is trivial - the gap must be maintained so drivers have the

Let me rephrase that: an afterlife is not guaranteed; therefore a breezy afterlife cannot be guaranteed. None of us know what is going to happen when we die. There are many beliefs, but no guarantees. The original statement was a reminder t

I found it to be very useful. Even though it is a few years old, the underlying concepts of each pattern remain the same and I find it much easier to maintain code when I know which pattern was implemented. As for newer content, I would poi

I am also a big fan of Salatin, though I'm not convinced his method is the answer to our problem. Not because I don't think it works, but rather because his approach doesn't currently fit into our food system. He has stated
