I don't know what happened and I fully admit that, but let's take the cop section out of it, so none of this "Cops lie all the time" business. 1) A person was shot by someone at the scene 2) A different person

Why aren't people paid a full time salary for the work they're expected to do instead of the time they sit at a desk? It's a question I genuinely struggle with. If the employee is doing all that's expected of them, then

He needed to look at hardware platforms of the past. If you can't get people to develop for a system and make good apps, then the hardware is useless.

It's a matter of priorities. If we decide these things are important as a nation they don't have to be scarce. We make the best war machines on the planet and spend a lot of money on them. That is more of a priority than the good

It can't be too much of a surprise that a lot of white collar jobs involve a fair amount of BS. I have 3 to 4 meetings a day and only 1 or 2 are really necessary =[

What do you see as your best routes to monetization on the Apple v. Android and how FTP differs on each platform? Also, what routes of promotion have you been taking to build a customer base? Sorry to ask so many questions, but as a maker o

There's just so much data available, I don't see how it couldn't be the prevailing trend.

This! I have resisted the Apple platform due to personal tastes but if they get the blood sugar monitor working (which they say they're close to), I'll switch my entire platmorm ecosystem over to Apple for that one specific featur

LOL, according to this, my family's group text thread is illegal under this law, as DMs can only be between 2 people. EDIT: serious question; would Slack be professional networking or, how does that work under this bill? It's DMin

It's almost sad to admit these days but Flash started me down my path with Actionscript. It was the first language I thought I could really use and threw myself into, creating small games for the web (at the time). It was a blast!

So, first off, I am not very literate when it comes to the comings and goings of banking procedures, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. Would an incident like this make other banks shore up their defenses about this sort of thing hap

Drugs ate pushed on television stations a hundred times a day. There are so many commercials for drugs, it's disheartening. There are adds to be more beautiful, thinner, more muscular with drugs and products that promise all of these t

At that point, why bother to allow gambling or alcohol a place in society. If people truly have no self determination, why not let a state or federal agency dictate all of their rights and wrongs. Eat only what's good for you because i

You don't think it might have something to do with the billion dollar campuses FAANG companies had built?

This is exactly why I didn't get a degree in biology. Organic chem was at 7:30 in the morning and I couldn't cut it that early in the morning. All the lectures just washed over me. All worked out in the end though =)

Isn't that attrition going to happen anyway? And with mass layoffs, wouldn't top talent, with plenty of options, be wary of a company who is likely to layoff 7% of its staff to please stockholder share pricing? I don't know t

If you want a somewhat existential answer, I treat my life like I treat my art. It's open for interpretation but I know what I'm trying to say with my life. Figure out what you want your life to say and create it as best you can.

I don't know if this is the case for anyone else, but for me when I would come home and sit at the computer working on personal projects, then go to work and work on work, I was burnt to a crisp. Finally I started hobbies at home total

>>In any case, it's pretty silly to blame the party that's on your side<< Not to be a complete downer, but there is so much special interest money involved in our political system, neither the Democrats or the Republic

Those are good reasons, I'm not going to deny that but there's something to be said for enjoying life while you're young enough to take full advantage of it. Being poor(ish) when you're young isn't the worst thing i

sure but now you only need testers and one coder to fix bugs, where you used to need testers and 20 coders. AI code generators are force multipliers, maybe not strict replacements. And the level of creativity to fix a bug relative to progra

I like Signal, and I use it... with one other person. No one uses Signal.which is its biggest problem. Without adoption it's a useless app.

If you can find a community garden, they're way better than the grocery. No offense or anything. Plus you get to meet your local community. I miss mine, now that I'm in the suburbs. You might look into it. It fosters a lot more th

And that's fantastic for you, and I'm happy for you, but your WFH footprint will remain small and on average the total environmental footprint will go down because you aren't the average person. You happen to be an anomaly an
