For the most part sure, but where I live plenty of beef farmers use alfalfa, just not as much/high grade as dairy farmers. I see plenty of hay that have an alfalfa mix for beef cattle.

I agree completely back in the 4.x days, even early 5.x, But since 5.3 I think they are actually starting to develop the language seriously. The main problem is you have a TON of code out there, so you REALLY have to think of the risks, pros, and cons of doing a BC break. Really what they should do is just make version 6 already FIX all of the bullshit in the language and not care about the many many BC breaks. Actively release fixes for 5.x branch for a few years while people transition to the 6.x branch
I dont get the point of this story. This is EXTREMELY common in Canada, and honestly if you pay sticker price for your phone/internet (from the Big 3, not independent operators) in Canada you are an idiot/sucker.
All you have to do is call up your provider, hit Cancel service, give them a big sob story on how you LOVE the service but due to unforseen circumstances you can no longer afford it so unfortunately you have to cancel. They will work extremely hard to give you discounts to something that you can "afford". I have seen people get 75% off their cell phone bill (sticker price being $120 for their package but they were paying $30) It used to be easier, but after a couple years they realized a ton of people were taking advantage of their retentions department (i.e calling them up threatening to cancel even though they had no intention of cancelling to begin with) so they clamped down a bit. You still get discounts just not as big of discounts as before, and if they think you are insincere in your threat to cancel they may call your bluff. But even with that, I was still able to get a $70 plan for $45
In Canada this isn't true (used to be until TPIA providers became a real threat to the big providers. Now it is structured to be more around upload usage, and bandwidth. http://www.start.ca/services/highspeed Very decent pricing structure. THe $40 pacakage really does work for 99% of people. But there are people who want the faster speeds/more bandwidth.
no, only within Canada. They rape you if you text internationally without an international texting plan. Something stupid at approx 75 cents per text...
Actually yes, I do think that reducing sports player salaries, actors, etc would be better. It is pathetic how someone who provides almost zero value to society is getting paid millions, while a farmer down the street who is feeding the local community is struggling to keep afloat after a drought. And yes I wouldn't accept that much money, or take it and donate it to a worthy cause. I make an average salary and I already donate some of it to the needy. I honestly wouldn't even know what I would do with that much money and have zero use for it. If I had 2 mill in my account right now I could easily never earn a dime for the rest of my life and be content.. I don't want a mansion, I am perfectly happy in my 250k home. I dont want a 300k car (although maybe I would buy a 60k car). I don't want a private jet, yaht or whatever. Sure I would live a tad more extravagantly that I do now if I had the money but not much more.
Now you mention people like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs -- they earned it. I have ZERO problem with people making billions of dollars from something that they built with their own bare hands. And I also wouldnt have a problem with the CEO of Blackberry getting 88 million dollars if he completely turned Blackberry around and made it extremely profitable, but not until that time comes. Maybe dropping the package to 50 mil wouldn't translate to hiring more workers, but I can guarantee you some of those workers would rather rather take a paycut for stock options of equivalent value then to be laid off.
I am not saying layoffs didn't need to happen, of course they did. I just find it disgusting how they offer a new CEO such a huge compensation package when they are in the financial turmoil they are in. I know it is mostly stock options, but that is present value, so sure if it bombs to 1/4 he still makes out like a bandit with 22 mil all while doing a piss poor job. If it goes to zero, well obviously he didn't deserve a penny of it anyways..
Are you sure? I find it hilarious how huge companies have to lay off thousands of employees, yet the CEOs are still making their 10s of millions in salary. How about first eliminating bonuses, as well as dropping salary before eliminating employees. For example,Blackberry CEO getting a compensation package of 88 mil literally days before laying off a bunch of employees. How about offering him 50 mil instead and keeping on 700 workers, And he gets a private jet to travel between his home and Waterloo headquarters at an approx value of 50k per round trip (almost someones full yearly salary) because he is too fucking lazy to move to waterloo to do his job even though he is getting a shitton of money. And yes I am a bit better because I do live near (and work in)waterloo and know a few people affected by the layoffs.
Exactly, what exactly are they going to do? Shake their first harder? Wave their finger in shame longer? I know Dennis Rodman could go down again and sort everything out!
Uh, 6 weeks of paid vacation per year is not the norm. 2 weeks is mandatory, but most people I know usually have 3-4 weeks. The only people who get 6+ are generally in union jobs. But yes, 40 hours weeks are the norm. Some places do 44. By law you cant do more then 48 unless it is agreed to in writing. Any by law you cannot work more than 60 hours unless the company gets approval by some labour board. Of course there are some jobs that are exempt for this such as truckers, miners.. as well as exceptional circumstances such as an emergency (and no deadlines are not considered an emergency)
My current job is awesome, 35 hours per week, 4 weeks paid vacation. I used to have a 44 hour job, and that seemed to be fairly life draining I can't imagine doing 50+ consistently.
But for the ridiculous vacation, just look at some of those European countries.
Tell him fine you will do it for free --- as long as your hourly rate is the same as the hourly rate they are billing the client. See how fast he will shut up.
I use the JetBrain IDEs and the integrated one works well for 99% of the stuff I use it for (commits, pushes, pulls, merges, branches, rebase, history). Of course there is that 1% of the time where I need to run a git command that isn't supported. But luckily they also have an integrated terminal so just open that and I am put straight into the working directory.
Thank you very much that clears it up. I actually tried reading a few articles and none of them made any sense, or didn't explain what was wrong or what gox was doing wrong.
Ok, but not all 1500sqft need to be vacuumed. i.e kitchen, dining room and bathrooms that I sweep instead of vacuum. I don't vacuum under furniture every week either, maybe only once a month which then yes it does take a bit longer, maybe double amount of time.
Can someone explain to me why a third part can channge an id? Is this a feature (if so what use would it have), or an exploit that wasn't found out about until recently and it is part of the core and too difficult to fix? I skimmed over the article and it said something abotu it being known since 2011.. which if that is the case then why not fixed and or publiciced better? as it seems like a major issue.
I would always think using something like a transaction id to be safe to use to you know, IDENTIFY the transaction.
I am somewhat similar situation 1500 sqft house that I live on my own. Sure cleaning the entire house takes a good portion of the day (specially when I have a messy pet) but vacuuming 1500 sqft doesn't take much longer than 10 minutes.. I assume that since you are by yourself in a 1500 sqft then like me, you probably don't use a couple of your rooms. (I have 3 empty rooms I do not use), so I only vacuum them once a month maybe even longer since not much dust gets in them. Main floor I vacuum the most at twice a week which takes 3 minutes... honestly takes longer to get the vacuum out and deal with the cord then to actually vacuum the floor.
I would be 100% for a cleaning robot that will clean everything (walls, vacuum, counters, etc, aka a robotic cleaning maid), but just a vacuuming robot? No thanks I can do that myself quickly.
I live in a 1500 sqft home and vacuuming takes 10 minutes (note this is upstairs AND downstairs). Upstairs I only need to vacuum approx every 3weeks . Downstairs gets vacuumed twice a week that takes about 4 minutes each time.
Ok so maybe they should also have you wear a shock collar so when the device determines you are sleeping on the job, you get a few thousand volts put through your body. Oh and heaven forbid if it detects you stealing office supplies, it will chop off a toe! But hey freedom!
then rent a car. Seriously all these people say "but it can't do this!" well it's not meant for that application no matter what tesla tries to shove down your throat. 99% of the time I am driving it is <50km Another.5% of the time <150km the other.5% of the time I may run into issues. But guess what, that two days a year Ill just rent a car instead. Honestly even know sometimes I'll rent a car for long trips.. ill rent a fun driving car just to try something new.
You wouldn't buy a coupe if you had a family of 5, just like you shouldn't buy a Tesla if you are consistently driving far range.
yes but you can say that about every field. Chances are kids who are interested in computers will seek it out on your own, same reason they dont teach you how to fix a car, become a sous chef, or how to diagnose a disease. It is too specialized that most of the people have ZERO use for. History is considered general knowledge and you should know that in fact WWII indeed came after WWI. Chemistry wasnt mandatory nor poetry although they were a small subset of the general science and english, and even then chemsitry and poetry was only the basics. Coding isnt a basic, general computing which was part of a course. They would be much better off having a mandatory course like parenting
