Create an uncomfortable pause. Just look at them, don't answer their question. They'll ask it again and societal norms will force them to wait for an answer, and to register your response. That's when you ask again if you're free to go.
After that, I'd go straight for "Are you deaf or stupid?" but I'm no respecter of authority.
Two pairs of glasses, glass lenses, light reactive, UV protecting, anti-glare coating, including frames.. about £250. Maybe £350 if you want varifocals.
You can get shit plastic lenses far far cheaper if you want to economise. Children go free.
I don't know about removing all teeth, we seem to keep ours. Maybe it's because we don't keep bleaching them?
This is why the moment HIPAA gets involved I immediately refer to my compliance team. They know this shit, I just need to know they need to be involved.
if i have a modified version of a standard codebase that i use as a template on many jobs, if someone used then modified that template for a client, by your logic that template itself would be the company's copyright, because it was used
If someone used then modified the template then either their changes become your property, or they contravene the licence terms, or they get to keep their changes but not the template or the template is already the company's property.
There's no single answer, until or unless we know the terms of the licence or commercial agreement under which the company are using the code in your template.
Furthermore, engines come at a huge efficiency cost. Instead of knowing your own products, you've got to master someone elses. It takes substantial time to learn a tool chain and become efficient with it. It also takes time to adapt the tool chain to do what you actually want. Not to mention time spent dealing with bugs in the engine itself. All time that for many devs could have been spent making their own tool chain exactly how they want it.
Yeah, that's why everybody writes their own engine instead of using Unity, or one of the Unreal engine incarnations, or Source, or Crytek.
Oh wait. No. They've done the careful cost analysis and the productivity benefits of an engine and being able to get big swathes of the solution domain out of the box works out a fuck of a lot cheaper than hand crafting everything.
You're right, time is money. Learning an engine takes time. Writing your own engine takes time. Hiring someone that already knows an engine is quick, easy and comes with the advantage that the technology is already proven.
10 cents for a pen sure. Saving 10-20% on a $800k stationary bill however.. Changing the thermostat, again, tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars across a multinational. 1% of your budget? That's fucking massive. Where I work that's several tens of millions of dollars.
A good businessman focusses on everything, because you can, and it works out better for you, and your stakeholders.
We disagree.

You think you can take me down in 3-4 seconds without me getting a knife in you? Really?
Shit, even with a gun it'd need a headshot.
His risk evaluation may be skewed but his fear is justified.
You may disagree but the stats back him up entirely.
That's escalation pissed off otherwise disinterested people enough that they'll record just to preserve the right to record.
This is why if I'm wandering around with my camera, I photograph any police officer I see, whether they're doing something interesting or not.
I know I'm not the only person that does this.
Sounds reasonable. I once pulled a police car over on the freeway because they were breaking the law.
They threatened me, but nothing came of it.
I once got shit from my (American) manager for criticising Kevin Costner's performance in a film. Apparently they'd both been in the same greek frat.
As you say, losers.
You're doing it entirely completely and utterly wrong.
I've posted this on here before: Lectures are where you go to catch up on sleep. If you go at all.
Go to university for an education, not to be taught.
Similarly, just because a woman has a cock doesn't make her a man.
Luckily women born with cocks can now have surgery to bring their physical appearance into line with their gender. Isn't medicine marvellous.
Do people always flee the scene when you try and chat them up?
Look. He's just really proud of his nation.
We call that irony.
Yes, absolutely. You shoot until the threat is eliminated.
The threat is eliminated long before the victim stops moving.
Continuing to shoot after the threat has passed is treated as a crime in the UK. That feels reasonable to me.
You may have responded to the wrong comment. I was discussing possession of a bill as a means of validating identity.

No, it's not. It could mean they've pulled the bill out of someone's bin.
(erm. trash? whatever the fuck word you guys made up over there)

What gets me about the summary is the assumption that 10x programmers are arseholes.
Some programmers are significantly more productive than others.
Some programmers are twats.
The two communities intersect, so focus on hiring members of the first group that aren't in the second. They exist. They're worth some extra pay.
Drive the twats out of the industry.
I believe you want definition number 32:

Even assuming it's a typo, that one's left me confused.
No, I think you're revealing your immaturity, xenophobia and stupidity.
But hey, throw nationalist slurs around if you want, we've heard worse. Far worse.
Really? In that case everybody in England comes off as ultra-gay, including the women.
You're conflating focus with prioritisation.
Any business bigger than a sole trader can focus on more than one thing.
Shit, one company I worked for saved 10 cents on pens by stopping buying stationary. It was that or go out of business. They stayed in business.
