    And how many of them run ASP.NET vs RoR?

    What makes you think you can't do this on .NET? Is RoR not an all-in-one solution then? Are you going to answer my other questions?

    What ideas did they "steal" from RoR and what is a Rails way as opposed to a .NET way? Where do you put your business logic and db connection code in RoR if not on the web server? What's the difference between a web GUI on RoR and one on ASP.NET?

    There have been no new fans of Zelda between 2002 and 2013? In any case you said there wasn't a Zelda game, which there quite clearly is so if you don't want pedants like me pointing out the obvious you might want to be clearer next time for those people who never owned a GC and never played the original.

    Because everyone in the whole world has played the GC version already.

    Yes there is.

    There is also a Mario game. I don't know how it compares to Galaxy.

    No my argument is that Mark Zuckerberg didn't "risk everything". Kindly use your brain.

  16. Article, read it on Doctors Say Food Stamp Cuts Could Cause Higher Healthcare Costs · · Score: 1

    Our analysis found that based on current rates of diabetes in relation to poverty in U.S. communities, this increase in poverty could translate to a growth in government and private-sector medical costs for diabetes alone of nearly $15 billion over 10 years.

    Thus, diabetes costs alone could nearly equal CBO’s estimate of $20 billion in savings over 10 years from implementing proposed SNAP changes in H.R. 1947, in addition to any costs associated with other diseases. .

    A lot of the young men that dropped out of college didn't risk everything since the college they dropped out of was Harvard.

    That 40% isn't on the whole amount, it's on anything earned above £41450. The first £9440 (threshold increased this year) is tax-free, the next £32010 (threshold reduced this year) is taxed at 20%. VAT isn't uniformly 20%, it's charged at different rates for different products, some of which are VAT exempt. National Insurance also has a minimum threshold although the website is very confusing and I can't figure out how it works.

    I know you think "woe is us the poor have it easy", well perhaps you can explain why the use of food banks has tripled over the past few years if being poor is such a party. I've been dirt poor and unemployed and now I'm quite well-off, and I'm telling you now my life is way way better now than it was then. Your Tesco employee friend is either luckier than most poor people or has got herself into debt to buy the PS4.

    It's an example of why a government run and funded healthcare system is better because it doesn't need to give a shit about who your employer is.
