This level of evasion from responsibility is only possible because of the limited liability and lack of operational transparency granted to corporations by the government. Does the "Libertarian ideal" support the formation and defense of limited liability corporations by the government?
From my experience, you can't really fight property tax valuations, either. You can make appeals, which will be summarily denied. You can then appeal the appeal denial, which will also be denied. And so on...
I know why we can't have many of them them anymore, but I'd love to see a resurgence of the yield sign. So many lights and four-way stops would be better served by a just couple of yield signs.
Yes, a minority can be totally racist. But that's not the problem, as long as they are a small minority.
It is a problem if anybody is racist and minorities expressing racist sentiments only serve to increase tensions and racial hatred. Tolerating it is foolish, but encouraging it is downright malicious.
Martin Luther King would be spinning in his grave if he could see the increasing racial divide and disharmony that's being celebrated by the "champions" of the poor minorities.
I have no idea what the mouth-foaming conservatives say because I don't listen to garbage talk radio, but I can assure you that mouth-foaming liberals exist. The GP post above is a great example of one. He rages against straw men and calls people hateful names. He's not trolling and there are many people like him.
I'm at a university, so I see plenty of them all of the time. They assume I'm one, too, so they foam around me but not at me, but they certainly foam.
I didn't vote for either of the two major party clowns, either, by the way. A pox on both their houses.
It was more than just his choice of running mate that made him a horrible choice. He went from being a fairly reasonable and level-headed guy to a wingnut raving loon just in time for his bid for presidency. I hope that he was only acting that way under guidance of the GOP coaches, but I"m not sure he could ever come back from that. I'm not a R (or D), but I could have voted for him before he pulled that shit.
Which usually tells you a lot about those particular managers and how they spend their work time.
The worst supervisor I've ever had didn't give a shit about what anyone actually accomplished but was a stickler for keeping timesheets and seeing asses-in-chairs (in a postdoc position). Of course, she regularly took two hour lunches, left at noon once a week to go play golf, and was often "working from home" (but couldn't answer emails for some reason during those days).
The code shouldn't always work because it depends on receiving a valid response from the untrustworthy browser.
Using strlen(response), when the contents of response are outside of your control and you know that the correct length is strlen(computed_hash), is ridiculously sloppy for anybody, best especially somebody writing a security system.
If we're going to look backward in time, are we allowed to look at Europe's (not at all) peaceful past, including starting two of the largest wars in human history? Non-homicidal Europeans are a relatively new phenomenon and time will only tell how long it lasts.
People love firefighters. You can see the appreciation ooze from everybody if you're ever at the grocery store when they show up to restock the station. There's no lack of gratitude for them. Most states in the US have special license plates for firefighters because it's something that people appreciate (even if getting one is a bit tacky).
Cops are jerks often enough that nobody likes them. People often look ill at ease when they are around, even if they're doing nothing wrong. The only time you hear somebody not in uniform say that they are a police officer is if they are a relative of yours or if they are currently breaking the law and expecting to get let off the hook for it out of professional courtesy.
Apple will give a developer cert to anybody that pays for it and doesn't start distributing malware and get it revoked. They may not allow it in their store, but who cares about that?
This has happened to them multiple times already. I'm sure they could come up with $100/yr to avoid it happening again. I've donated close to that much over the years. At this point, not wanting to sign their application is just a disrespect their users.
Most don't even check that they're buying the carton of milk with the furthest-out expiry date.
I finish the carton of milk well in advance of the shortest expiry date I've ever seen on the shelf. Not wasting my time digging through cartons of milk and getting the fuck out of the grocery store is worth way more to me than finding a carton that expires two weeks and a day after I finish it instead of two weeks after I finish it.
Shopping for the furthest-out expiry date seems less about being a "savvy consumer" (ick!) and more about being neurotic.
I will check for broken eggs, though, but that only takes a second: turn the carton over and look for wet spots, then open the carton and make sure the eggs move when touched.
Hanging around the impound lot may not be somewhere that you'd expect to want keep records, but conducting a search that you may expect to present in court should seem important enough to record.
Anyway, if fixing the 2.5 hour record time is infeasible for whatever silly reason, then the cop cars and the stations need to have readily available chargers so that they're not limited to 2.5 hours of recordings per shift. Record the search, then plug the camera in while you drive away from the impound lot.
To be in the "workforce" you have to be actively looking for a job (it's not just "after a year").
This is where the "trick" comes into play. How is this number determined and how reliable is that determination? You act as if determining this is as simple as determining the number of people who live in the country (which is still surprising difficult to actually pin down).
If you spend 3 years actively looking for a job but remain without one, you will still be counted as "in the workforce".
By what mechanism would this be accomplished? The last time I looked for a job, I didn't register that fact with the federal government. How would they reliably know how many people are looking for jobs?
We have laws against poisonous effluent (and China is starting to also). I'd rather there was less poisonous effluent anywhere and that the manufacturing was located in the place more likely to enforce laws against it.
It's not like that at all, for a variety of very obvious reasons. The document that brought the US government into existence made many very unambiguous statements about the nature of the government that was being created. Deviating from these specifications or claiming that the Constitution doesn't apply to the current government invalidates the the basis of the government itself.
Based on anything I've said, I don't know why you would bit [sic] that I believe that the bible is true or why you would even turn the discussion that way. You have a hard time following logic and reading for comprehension, don't you? Try having discussions with what people are actually saying instead of just venting your hate and intolerance on your own poor straw men.
I thought that plastic was (or could be made to be) more resilient, too, but I've had more plastic cased laptops with structurally compromising breaks. Most of them broke around stressed areas like by the hinges or where the screws are set.
Meh. Who cares about dents and scratches? If anything, those are battle scars. I've literally hammered a nail into a piece of wood with my Macbook. And yes, it left a little dent in the case.
I think I'd put unblemished appearance at the bottom of my priority list for any sort of functional machine.
I could for my 2012 MacBook Pro, which is probably going to be the last Apple product I ever buy. That was the last laptop of theirs that could have the RAM and drive upgraded. It even has a second drive bay that's come in handy. (Well, it's a DVD drive, but what do you need that for?)
I'm hoping that it holds out for a while. Solid construction that's taken some abuse, Core i5, 1 TB SSD, 16 GB RAM.

Genuinely curious...
Are you kidding? On most days, the percentage of Germany's power that comes from coal is nearly three times that of the US.

I'm pretty sure that glucose is a kind of gluten, so he's right that you should avoid it. Especially the GMO glucose because it's full of chemicals.

Pandora did ask for access to my microphone when I installed it. Not seeing any legitimate need for that, I denied it, but you may be on to something.
Occam's Razor. Your turn.

It may say that, but is it true?
In the context of the US government it's true, as it is the basis of the government's legitimacy.
In another bit it claims that rights are granted by some man who nobody's actually seen and who a sizeable number of people don't believe exists.
Well, it's a Deist "God", so it's less of "some man" and more of "a principle greater than man".
