Funny thing is, as soon as I saw OP's solution I fired up IPython to do the same thing in Python. :) Admittedly mine was not as elegant as I haven't thought of using izip with 3 iterables. Still, I don't think that lambda and

It is not so much the specifics of the BART strike described in the article that I find relevant, as it is the general attitude displayed by the “lucky elite class of tech workers”. [1] There is certain mix of privilege, arrogance and ignor

On the flip side, making more and more money just to spend it on useless crap that gives instant but short-lasting gratification is also silly. The way I see it, it's a scale, and hitting a balance, not striving for either of the extremes,

It is not. It is Steven Harper and Jim Flaherty privatizing profits and outsourcing costs to the people, business as usual. Remember ~$2 billion dollars disappearing into thin air[1]? Well, I mean, there was the $2m fakelake[2], an unlawful
