Weirdly, Mazars actually shrinks what I believed was the scope of Congressional power, where in the one instance the House actually attempted to exert equal balance, there now exists a four-part test for validity of presidential subpeonas.

Thanks for sharing. I actually wonder now if your experience happens fairly often, and Keivan's experience infrequently, though they're fairly similar circumstances. Integrating OSS or OSS concepts into a program vs a library have

But there is the promise of your OSS engine being used again, future potential. Microsoft essentially cut this person off from being involved in the future of Windows packaging and only told him 24 hours in advance. I'd need that amoun

Once we reopen, we aren't going to regain capacity in hospital beds overnight. How are parts of the US going to avoid being to be on lockdown every two to eight weeks for the remainder of the summer? I feel if everyone understood that

The abolition of slavery was worth it. But the failure of Reconstruction allowed the south to backside right where they were.

On the bright side, I definitely write safer C code now after wrapping my head around Rust. I'd much rather have the compiler tracking lifetimes than my own imagination though.

This is such a strange response. Byuu's two posts later in the thread contain several corrections, particularly on their alleged cartridge hoarding behavior. It invalidates the claims of the original post while not denying any of the

"Held accountable" on the post seems to include moral depravity like "he posted anti-Trump tweets". I don't think that's really accurate here.

Means testing is a strategy but not really expected of a private corporation, e.g. you're just asking the company to do more work to accomplish less.

That's what confuses me. How particularly is the UK so different from the rest of Europe or the globe even? I get that how the UK views itself may give support for this strategy, and it agrees with how I view UK society, but why only i

It is possible to use Firefox on iOS and survive. My primary use of the Share menu is just to share links to Firefox, with the option to even open tabs in the background. Still, this is obviously the best they can do with the limited OS API

If you take into account that MBS murdered an employee of Bezos, explanation #2 sounds plausible.

Rather than public crucifixion, it looks like James Watson actually did quite well for himself?

Two of the bullet points they list ask for help in doing this conversion: * Replace some extern "C" includes with more idiomatic uses. Pretty straightforward find/replace-all usually does the trick. * Pick a utility, like cat

The impressive part is how you can write a game for one of these systems, and easily port it across a variety of 8-bit platforms. That's hardly true for C code and definitely not true for assembly!

With the senate filibuster, most Congressional legislation is just appointments and removing rules anyway. New legislation feels impossible to enact.

An American president visiting the DPRK is not a little gesture, it is a big gesture.

Sure, and it's objectively a diplomatic win for North Korea. But what diplomatic outcome is expected for the U.S. for visiting the DPRK for the first time?

by tiles 7y ago
The visit was pretty widely covered on cable news, after all this was the first president to enter the DPRK. Why did no president before now want to visit the DPRK, and what public good did this administration secure in exchange for doing s

Ruling by executive fiat isn't necessarily bad, but it's a hell of a trend. Should you be able to sidestep Congress to implement mandatory listing of drug pricing (especially when you also control one chamber of Congress)? Should
