I took my 7- and 10-year old and they enjoyed it, especially the 10yo. We watched a couple hours of Looney Tunes compilations on YouTube the day before to introduce them to the characters.

This article[0] and a clarifying comment[1] answer the question for JS. I think it's the same for Python. Apparently your model (which was mine, too) is out of date! [0] https://hacks.mozilla.org/2015/05/es6-i

As the article explains, debits increase the balance of debit normal accounts, whereas credits increase the balance of credit normal accounts.

I think the argument is that there are multiple judicial philosophies that can be chosen from, and you can generally predict what outcomes will result from following a philosophy consistently over time, so a justice chooses the philosophy t

I think the heatsink and platform it is on are moving horizontally and the blade only moves vertically.

I would call it a duty more than a debt. I feel that I have a duty to look after my elders, but I do not think my children owe me a debt for conceiving them or for performing my own duty to take care of them.

One possibility is that he "works hard" at that, too, e.g. by consciously thinking about what the best things to do with them are and endeavoring to spend as much as possible doing them. Perhaps if you internalize the idea that sp

As I wrote, I didn't find the "drying out" step to be necessary. If you are patient enough you can process the nixtamal into dough with only a tiny bit of water added. Edit: I don't have a wet grinder so I can't com

This is an excellent question that I never thought of! My guess is that - there is a large range of cal concentrations that work fine without tasting bad, and - the amount of water absorbed by the corn is very hard to predict, as it varies

You can get a smooth product from a food processor if you are willing to do it in small batches, very slowly (I take around 5 minutes to process 1 cup of nixtamal in my 11-cup food processor, with pauses to scrape it down). I can do that wi

Having implemented it for a job, this has been my impression of container scanning as well. Either your container has an OS, in which case you don't use 99% of the software on it and so 99% of the vulnerabilities found do not affect yo

Maybe, but did you read my post? You need a cause of action. It is not libel to moderate someone's tweets, so even if § 230 does not protect them you can't sue them for libel based on their moderation.

by hundt 6y ago
My understanding is that (c)(2)(A) is only about liability for the act of moderation itself, e.g. suing Twitter because they banned you. If they did that in bad faith you could hypothetically maybe sue them for it, but there would need to b

I tried the XPS 15 7590 late last year before I switched back to Mac when the 16" MBP came out. It felt like absolute garbage in comparison. Trackpad was so bad I had to use the touchscreen to scroll. Internet stopped working intermitt

Two meaningful things they can do without realizing the gains: borrow against it and bequeath it.

Sorry, I'm still not clear what you're referring to. There are multiple ProPublica articles linked in this thread and I'm not sure what statement you're paraphrasing with your "soup to nuts" quote. Are you refe

Can you point to where the IRS has said that they can prepare returns for taxpayers? As far as I know they can correct isolated pieces of information (e.g. wrong numbers from a W-2) but do not have the ability to prepare a return from scrat

It is certainly true that the IRS could hypothetically implement a better version of TurboTax. But it is quite a leap to conclude that the tax preparation industry's relatively small amount of lobbying is the main reason they have not

Interestingly, Lambda School has just announced a new "ISA Financing Blueprint" [0] and "Better Data Transparency" [1] which address some of the concerns from the article. [0] https://lambdaschool.com/the

Ah, I think you have a misunderstanding about what collateral is. Collateral is not generally a limitation on the lender's ability to collect the debt. In some specific cases (like certain home loans in certain states) the law adds thi

You seem to think that this "loan" that the investor makes to Lambda School only has to be paid back when the ISAs pay out, and if they never pay out then Lambda School's debt is just forgiven. That would indeed be similar to

You can read what Lambda School describes as the "template" for their ISA contracts: https://leif.org/api/products/5b5b8bd0e59b743f9a086ed9/pdf It says that you agree that you "are entering int

My understanding is that Lambda school is very focused on teaching you what you need to get a job, so if you were just "interested in tech" you would probably be better served by Udacity, other free or nearly-free online courses,

Yep, if Austen misled people that's bad. I am just disputing the argument that the later practice of using them as collateral for a loan is financially similar to selling them.

Selling the ISAs would make it more indirect, but this article is referring to borrowing against the ISAs' future income, which does not make it more indirect.

Yes, and that is accurate; borrowing against a student's debt is not "making money" from the student. The transaction you describe does not hedge Lambda's risk; in fact it increases Lambda's risk because now if the
