Most web designers are good at esthetics but have no concept of how the underlying HTML base actually works.
When I was software testing intern in 1997, I had to fix HTML code by hand because a table wouldn't line up correctly in Adobe Dreamweaver. Still hand code HTML to this day. Never got used to a WYSIWYG editor.
But if you don't give a shit, why would you necessarily care who is controlling it?
I vote in every election. If 2/3 of the country doesn't care enough to vote, than we get situations like Trump winning an electoral victory while losing the popular vote. Something that only happened five times in U.S. history.
Or maybe people don't want to live in your neighborhood.
Or maybe all the cigarette and pot smokers moved out because federal law applies to the apartment complex and smokers have to go outside the gates to smoke.
Or maybe they earn $50k as an IT contractor in Silicon Valley and can't afford it.
For an extra $200 per month, I could get an additional wall to have a one-bedroom apartment.
The "luxury" apartments in my immediate area have a 50% vacancy rate in San Jose. The last time this happened was after the dot com bust and the Great Recession. The apartment bubble might be easing as new apartments and condos are coming online. Or maybe Silicon Valley is slowing down.
A roommate and I rented the front unit of a triplex in Silicon Valley after the dot com bust. I had planted some petunias in the front yard, got busy with life, and let the petunias die. While we were out in front one day, a little old lady came up to tell us that the dead petunias in our front yard lowered the value of her house down the street by $25K. I asked her if she was selling her house. She said no. I asked her how she knew that the value of her house dropped by $25K if it wasn't up for sale. She walked away in a huff.
Why should anyone care who won the American Revolution?
You missed the point. If 2/3 of Americans didn't care who won the American Revolution and 2/3 of Americans didn't care who won in 2016, then America is doomed to being controlled by 1/3 of the population that gives a shit.
If it's not readable visually in Lynx, there's little to no chance for some poor blind sod who's limited to using screen reader software.
That was a big controversy at my job when it was mandated that everyone had to use a custom website access a database and it had no accessibility features. As luck would have it, a blind programmer became a squeaky wheel and went to war on the web team. During the two months that it took to implement the accessibility features, the interface kept changing from day to day for everyone else.
They didn't base their decisions on the actual text of the Executive Orders as one would expect.
Most of these Executive Orders are so poorly drawn up, they don't carry the weight of law and the judges have to look at Trump's intent to discern the purpose of the Executive Order. The Obama Administration spent months on Executive Orders to avoid problems that Trump keeps easily running into.
Not only that, most of the people who did take the time to vote didn't vote for Trump.
I read somewhere but never confirmed it with another source that 2/3 of Americans didn't care who won the American Revolution. If that's true, it would explain 2/3 of Americans not voting in most elections.
NOT being ashamed of being fat justifies staying fat, ruining your health, eating like shit, and never trying to improve yourself.
I diet, I work out and improve myself all the time. You reject that because it doesn't fit you perception of a fat person.. Being ashamed of myself, wallowing in piety and feeling sorry for myself will not make me skinnier.
Ma Bell got broken up as a big bad monopoly in the early 1980's. If Google is being compared to Ma Bell in 1956, I guess it'll be a while before Google gets broken up as well.

You'd think that they'd filter out buildings like that.
Especially with undesirable tenants living there.

I know the point you're trying to imply but in reality [...]
That was one of the lessons pointed out in the post mortem.

If they can do get explosives past inside a laptop case why can't they do the same using clothes, books, shoes etc.?
The last time someone put explosives in his shoe and try to light it on fire was in 2001. I don't recall a similar incident since then.

The only reason exploding batteries are an issue was because of Samsung exploding phones, which you can now buy explosion-proof bags to carry in.
HUD says if you make less than 103K$ you are "poor"...
With a five year waiting list for new openings.
If Pence isn't implicated as well...
I hope not. I believe Paul Ryan is next in succession.
I hope he's appropriately flattered by this post.
I'm not. I tend stay on topic when it's not about politics or IT.
The real one mentions one of the above points in every single story.
That's because the topic being discussed isn't IT-related.

If you don't feature ads, then they would never link to you.
I only have three ad slots on each page.
Optimized for Lynx?
I haven't used Lynx in 20+ years. I should check out my websites in Lynx. The static websites will probably fare better than the WordPress websites.
This doesn't apply to my websites. ;)
If it was, the list would be much larger.
The ban also overlooks Muslim countries that Trump has business interests in.

You taxpayers in CA are being ripped off illegally by this idiot charging CA hours while posting his bullshit here.
What three-letter agency do you think I work for in the state of CA?

Easy with sockpuppet accounts [...]
I don't sock puppet accounts, but thanks for the suggestion.
[...] and all day on the taxpayer's dime to waste.
As an IT Support contractor and entrepreneur, I'm judged by one metric: Do I get my numbers in every day? Yes, I do.
Garbage Haulers of Milpitas?
I love bean burritos like anyone else, but I'm not responsible for how Milpitas smells when the wind picks up. ;)
