The oppose Trump at all costs, instead of working with him is going to cost you more than the Whitehouse.
You mean like the way the Republicans opposed every single thing Obama did, even when the idea originated with them? Maybe that's why Obama didn't get a second term.
Tell me again who's gonna pay for that wall?
We all know the wall will never be built. We all know coal jobs aren't coming back. We all know he's not going to "defeat ISIS". We all know he's not "smarter than all the generals". We all know he's not going to be able to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. We all know he's not going to be able to "get rid" of the EPA. He's already broken his promise to "never take a vacation while serving as president." We all know he's not going to prosecute Hillary Clinton. He's not going to "Drop that "dirty, rotten traitor" Bowe Bergdahl out of an airplane into desolate Afghanistan without a parachute." He's not going to bring back jobs from China. Hell, his own shit is made in China. He's not going to "force Nabisco to once again make Oreos in the United States".
These are just a few of the hundreds of promises he made, all on record.
Obama "made the effort" to close Gitmo throughout his whole presidency, does he get credit for that?
Nope, not in my book, and I voted for him twice. That was a promise he broke.
Now, getting back to President Bath Salts, how many of his promises will he break? How many has he already broken?
I suspect that he'll be running near 100% failure rate at the end of his term.

Failure to repeal Obamacare is not a lie. He made the effort.
He did not say he would "try", he said he'd do it on Day One. Even discounting the "Day One" hyperbole, it's obvious that this fucking clown couldn't find his own dick with a mirror and a magnifying glass.
It's reason enough for me. He seems to be actually trying to pull off his campaign promises. We will see as time goes on.
I think we've seen enough already.
None of the crazy pie-in-the-sky shit he promised is ever going to happen. He couldn't even close the deal on his wet dream of wrecking the healthcare system, and that's with a Republican president AND a Republican-controlled House and Senate. He couldn't pour piss out of a boot with the instructions written on the heel.
If I had my way, you could patent whatever you like about the device. But the moment you sell the device to someone they can do whatever they damn well want with it.
Exactly.
I'll do whatever I want with the things I buy regardless of any laws or patents that say I can't. I buy it, it's mine, end of story.
You know what I'd pay for? I'd pay to never see another tweet or hear the name "Twitter" ever again. Seriously, I'd pay for that. Not much, but something.
This reminds me of when the phone company started charging you for a dial tone on a landline phone, something that was just part of the service. But then one day it became a "connectivity service" and whaddya know, now you had to pay for it.
"the company released a statement claiming that the ad was not an ad, but that it was simply "timely content" that Disney didn't pay for."
It's an ad, and I don't give a fuck what kind of alternative hand-waving horseshit they call it. Shut the fuck up unless I summon you or unless there's a genuine emergency you need to warn me about. And no, a sale on pickles or Pampers or $PRODUCT is not an "emergency". No, no, fuck NO.
This right here is enough to convince me to never, EVER try Google Assistant or whatever the fuck it's called.
My phone has a bezel. O The Horror! O The Shame! How will I *ever* be cool when all the hip kids have phones without a bezel? Mom, Dad, I need a new phone IMMEDIATELY or I'll just DIE!!!
Lots of reasons, but one of the killers for me was that it scatters code all over the place. If you need to make a change you often end up having to screw around with multiple files. Change the model, change the controller, change the view. Lather, rinse, repeat. Need to change the view? Great, you'll have to change the model and the controller more often than not. Same goes for the model and the controller- any change anywhere usually necessitates touching multiple parts of the project over and over again.
Also, as someone else pointed out, it's often needlessly complex for smaller projects or one-off jobs. I just find the whole MVC paradigm to be a pain in the ass from start to finish. If it works for you, great, but it's not my cup of tea.
One more crippling bombshell hit the already beleaguered Uber service when Netcraft confirmed that Uber is dying, now that Uber market share has dropped yet again, now down to less than a fraction of 1 percent of all ride hailing services. Coming on the heels of a recent Netcraft survey which plainly states that Uber has lost more market share, this news serves to reinforce what we've known all along. Uber is collapsing in complete disarray, as fittingly exemplified by failing dead last in the recent geek news reading test.
You don't need to be the Amazing Kreskin to predict Uber's future. The hand writing is on the wall: Uber faces a bleak future. In fact there won't be any future at all for Uber because Uber is dying. Things are looking very bad for Uber. As many of us are already aware, Uber continues to lose market share. Red ink flows like a river of blood.
Uber is the most endangeredride-hailing service of them all, having lost 93% of its core users. The sudden and unpleasant departures of long time ride-hailing users only serve to underscore the point more clearly. There can no longer be any doubt: Uber is dying.
I would tell them to use encryption for everything all the time or they would be beaten like a rented mule. Then I would randomly beat an employee or two just to drive home the point.
Note that the directive would apply to ALL communication, including asking a coworker where he/she wanted to go to lunch. For example:
If you need to switch Linux distros every so often then Linux as a whole is a bit crap.
What part of "Mint works great" seemed unclear to you?
Atleast with Windows people are so happy and a version they refuse to move of one to another.
Oh yes, very happy. Happy as could be, which is why they had to force people to switch to it, and people are even happier that it spies on every keystroke, mouse movement, and file access. Super-duper-mega-extreme happy!
I mean, he was three days late for his son's execution, had to resurrect him to make up for it. That's just rude.
I know people who actually believe that fairy tale, but who swear the Moon landing was a hoax. Some of them aren't even sure whether or not satellites are real, but that doesn't stop them from using the GPS in their car.
I've tried to find out at exactly what altitude their disbelief takes over but I've never gotten a good answer.

"After Healthcare Defeat, Can The Trump Administration Fix America's H-1B Visa Program?"
No, because they couldn't care less and Trump uses the H-1B program to hire cheap labor.

If my carrier would provide updates I'd install them. If I could get patches I'd install them.
Don't blame me for not buying a new phone every 3 months.

Don't do stupid shit.
I am sure this is a sound advice that actually helps people improve their behaviour. </s>
It's helped me and countless others, but it won't help the terminally stupid.
Oh, and use MVC (Model View Controller).
No, never, ever. Not even at gunpoint. Not even if you were holding my wife and kids at gunpoint.
MVC has caused more heartbreak and aneurysms than tequlia and bacon combined.
Anyone wanna summarize the list so I don't have to read 160 articles to see if I agree/disagree with them?
1) Don't do stupid shit.
2) Think ahead.
3) Don't reinvent the wheel.
A perfect example of how "popular" does not necessarily mean "good".
Hire someone who knows what they are doing.
Stop with the crazy talk! This is slashdot- we have standards and we expect you not to exceed them.
