  1. Yes, It is all a play on words just as the previous posts and whether you remove the 'e' my comment still applies.

  2. Sure I did, it was in response to the "Silicone Valley would never" die remark from the previous post.

  3. Now THIS would be a true statement. Wow if you did not post AC, you probably would have been modded "Funny" or "Insightful"

  4. ... Silicone Valley will never die

    I would not bet on that. If 9/11 did not teach companies about providing redundancies to everything in the event of disaster, we would be foolhardy. There are plenty of other states that could provide EVERYTHING that Silicon Valley provides with a little effort. I would hope that Silicon Valley would not be so arrogant to make the assumption that they are irreplaceable.

  5. Your remark on the GOP, now that I can agree with wholeheartedly. There are still some in the GOP that do not grasp that just because they won both sides of Congress and the Executive that they can still attempt to do "business as usual". They would be wrong on that assumption.

    This also applies to the Democrats as well.

    This is why I looked at this election as this wasn't about two parties vying it out. There was a third party that was behind both parties that has always been manipulating both sides in order to gain the advantage. Its kind of like the "win-win" scenario. No matter who gets in, the third party will still win. Unfortunately the third party is not the US people in most cases.

  6. Nah, its to inundate the Red states with federally funded illegal immigrants and foreign refuges that will always vote for the party that will give them free stuff.

    Oh, I get it, you supported someone else to get to the White House. Gotcha, bias recognised.

    May have been seen by him as any mandatory military service. But he did get the time frame wrong though. The enforcement of the draft ended in 1973, the last processed individuals were in Dec, 1972.

    I think he was referring to the Draft for the "Vietnam Conflict". So yes, that was mandatory.

    Now this should be modded extra funny not only this post, but this parent and its parent post as well! Good to see humor is not completely dead in this discussion board.

    Well, I am not sure about the CIA, but the FBI was doing their job. While the FBI is about investigating national crimes, the CIA has a little different agenda.

    I don't know how liberal progressives can sleep at night when the system allowed someone to even run for the highest office of the nation with the questionable history of their candidate. Granted, the conservatives could very well employ some of the same tactics, they even tried to sabotage his chances to win the candidacy . Some of the conservatives even preferred liberal progressives over their own candidate because it supported more of the "status quo" that they have been cultivating over the political career (which is the REAL issue, people did not want status quo).

    Terrified, ummm, nope. That statement is just more FUD for the fire.

    Well, it WAS her turn since the rebuke from the previous elections. Almost as bad as Jeb stating it was his turn on the Republican side.

    Having worked with both Java from Sun and Java from Oracle, there is a vast difference in ideology . It still seems that Oracle does not want to give up that the Database Engine is application and not just a data store. This is the reason I avoid any ADF type work. The database is just that a data store not the application.

    How about avoid C common mistakes instead of avoid C would be a better statement. C done right is a solid language to use depending on the project.

    So in other words, the statement of Trump wanting to cut military spending is nothing but BS. I agree.

    Citations please! The information I am getting is totally opposite of what you stating?

    President Trump Is Likely To Boost U.S. Military Spending By $500 Billion To $1 Trillion

    Trump's military will have more troops and more firepower — if he can find more money

    Does he want to cut WASTEFUL spending like the Navy weapon that by supplying the projectile will cost more than the gun, or an aircraft that is considered by some as inferior such as the F-35? that a retrofit for an existing aircraft would do. Yes, then he does want to cut WASTEFUL spending.

    And what gave you the idea that he will reduce the military spending?

    That is not going to happen, if any he will increase the military that Obama has tried to gut.

    I would have to agree with you on that one. I feel that most of the Trump votes were not for him directly but a "not for her" decision.

    Both were not very likeable candidates and the 2016 election will most likely be viewed as the classical "lesser of two evils" for decades to come. I just hope in the future, this will produce better candidates in the future.

    However we will still have to wait as to whether a Trump administration will turn out to be a good or a bad experience.

  22. Yes, I no.

  24. Yes, you are correct. However, when critiquing someone else, it is always a good thing to check our own. Right?

    A better solution would be a percentage above Standard Industry rate for the geographical location. Also restrict Staffing Agencies from even applying for H1B visas as well. And no third-party payment processing for said H1B applicant, the salary need to be paid directly to the H1B worker..
