So everyone using SSL goes to jail? And if not, could I not simply transfer my encrypted file over SSL and you'd never be able to tell its not just normal SSL traffic?
The data does not at all suggest that your major will decide your spouse. I would suggest that this journalism major marry someone who had to take at least one statistics class.
Let's say the authors did intend it as you say. Did the representatives voting on it understand that when it said what it said, it really meant something else? How about the people who decided whether to call their reps in support or opposition? How about the citizens and companies planning to comply with the law: did they know that what it said wasn't really what the authors meant?
Do you see the problem here? There is a legitimate enough debate for this to make it to SCOTUS and you're saying we should let it go because obviously the authors meant it that way.
Except John Gruber is on video explaining how the states who try to stop Obamacare by refusing to set up an exchange will get pummeled by the people who realize they are paying taxes for Obamacare but are not eligible for any of the tax credits because their dumb Republican governor played politics and didn't set up a state exchange.
So what really happened here is revisionism after the fact, at worst, and definitely no consensus amongst authors, reps voting, and the citizens deciding on support.
The govt argued it was effectively a typo and when the authors wrote the section on subsidies they didn't have in mind the definition in the definitions section and obviously congress meant it to apply to exchanges set by state or the Feds. There was wording that said "such Exchange" and the govt argued that referred to an exchange set up in either way. SCOTUS bought it because they wanted to, just like the first ACA case.
You keep repeating this BS. The ACA says what it means by "State". Read the case background on scotusblog or something. It won't take long, I promise. Then you can go back to trying to sound smart.
Laws define words within their own coo text. There is nothing wrong with one law using "state" to mean any govt or the fed govt and another law meaning one of the 50 states and another law meaning any of the 50 states or a territory. Most laws have a definitions section. So your point suggesting Scalia is hypocritical shows ignorance.
High demand creates increasing supply. Land is finite but we are not anywhere near bounded by land supply. 350 million people can't live within 2 miles of a city center, and prices will take care of that too (and they have been for decades; google urban sprawl). Sprawl will make new transportation modes and work models viable. It already has.
No need to run around telling everyone the sky is falling. Markets are very resilient, especially when not heavily distorted.
I think you are quite off here, my friend. Your collective freak-out suggests total ignorance that this is standard operating procedure. So while you're spending time judging me for being aloof and resigned, I am trying to point out that my aloofness or resignation is pretty irrelevant if all you clowns don't even know this is happening all the time. Even in this thread I have people telling me this isn't happening all the time. How am I supposed to be anything but aloof and resigned? Your ignorance makes it a waste of time to be anything else.
The author of laws has exactly zero relationship to democracy or anti-democracy or whatever. If you want to be OMG OUTRAGED about something, how about being outraged that your elected representatives don't read the laws that they vote on? I don't care if Satan writes a law; democracy starts when the law is considered.
By the way, are you also OMG OUTRAGED that most of our laws are not even considered by Congress? Authority has been delegated to executive agencies and are handled through regulations "passed" by people you have never heard of and never elected. Who do you think writes those regulations?
But if I had to make a bet one way or the other, I would bet that you are on the side of the political spectrum that supported this delegation, ignoring the warnings and protestations of "my" side of the spectrum. So...
Bud, I don't know what to tell you. You are making my point. You are flat out wrong. Think tanks, lobbyists, and associations write laws. Period. Congressional staffers do little more than piece things together and strike sections out based on macro-level political negotiations.
Funny that you would post this on an article about bubbles. Real estate is like free money!!! Not realizing how highly you are levering yourself to expose yourself to a single asset class is a recipe for disaster.
This is how most bills are written. That is not a cynical but rather purely factual statement. The shock and surprise on TPP just makes you look ignorant.
I'm not new here, as I'm sure you know. You said that for effect and to be true in spirit, not because you believed it literally to be true in every respect.
Follow me so far?
Great, now apply the same understanding to my original post. Slashdot leans heavily in support of subsidized technology spending, green or otherwise, and now there are a bunch of clowns complaining about the subsidies being used.
When the left talks about austerity, they are referring to increasing deficit spending a little more slowly than originally planned. YoY govt spending growth of +3% when the plan was 3.3% is austerity in their warped minds.
Dude, come on. Note how you had to say "spend money on productive economic projects". Of course it would be beneficial to spend money on things that are productive. That is circular logic. The problem is that government has an extremely poor track record of doing this, because it requires central planning.
Good lord. Nobody gives a f about one terrorist. The target was the command and control center. Collateral damage? I get so tired of this kind of BS comment that comes from zero details in the story and is also incredibly unlikely given its a command and control center (unless they are intentionally using human shields or trying to look like a civilian building). No, it didn't come from any facts in the story. It came purely from your unrealistic personal worldview.
Would read again!!! You totally destroyed all those nonexistent people arguing that technology will take bad education and make it good education.
Most people in EdTech are major supporters of reform and are hoping their technology helps enable that reform. Nobody is thinking their technology fixed education absent reform.
You all supported creating these idiotic subsidy programs to encourage businesses to do certain behaviors. Then you act shocked that certain businesses do certain behaviors in order to take advantage of the subsidies? And have some underlying tone implying there is something nefarious about this? #REF!

Technically the reason is the reason regardless of whether you have yet proved it is the reason.

You seem to be confused about the purpose of a court.
The govt argued it was effectively a typo and when the authors wrote the section on subsidies they didn't have in mind the definition in the definitions section and obviously congress meant it to apply to exchanges set by state or the Feds. There was wording that said "such Exchange" and the govt argued that referred to an exchange set up in either way. SCOTUS bought it because they wanted to, just like the first ACA case.

Unless you are an hourly employee, you are not being paid for 40 hours. Common thinking, but wishful thinking.

Not to mention that most landlords lose money.
This is how most bills are written. That is not a cynical but rather purely factual statement. The shock and surprise on TPP just makes you look ignorant.
