The speeding ticket was dismissed because the cop didn't use radar, he just used his speedometer, and the expert witness for the prosecution didn't show up to testify on the calibration of the speedometer.
That's basically a pile of derp with no substance to your comment at all. You threw out some insults, but there is nothing in your comment that conveys information or even opinion other than in regards to the people who made it so I have a place to ride without getting run off the road.
Perhaps you're simply ignorant to the civic choices available in different places.
Or, judging from your user id, you're just not weened yet.
Modern information theory addresses finally why wage deflation doesn't happen, and the wages just flatten and hiring goes down; because if employers lower your wages, a lot of people will quit. And the employer has no way of measuring how bad the economy is, how much pain the employees would tolerate, without investing in that information; either from a consultant, or doing a trial run and screwing a few employees and seeing what happens. Which can hurt morale in the whole company. Companies don't invest in information in that situation; they make the safe decision, wages stay flat, hiring goes down, and they probably push employees to increase "efficiency" (work harder)
Not 20 years yet, but I'm still using a timeseal binary (for compensating for network time on internet chess servers) that was compiled in the late 90s. We're getting close!
I can still run old copies of XTree Gold in a DOS emulator. Lots of old software is still run just for entertainment purposes, not to mention all the COBOL much older than that that is still running.
These days you don't really have to upgrade your old mini you've been running since the 70s. You can also just emulate it on modern hardware and keep running your old apps. This is done... a lot. It isn't really the sort of thing most people want to brag about working on, though. It is generally quiet work.
The difference in term just isn't that important to this problem. The difference is that one protects a specific implementation, and the other creates a monopoly across a whole problem space. I'd rather an implementation be protected for 100 years than the whole problem space protected for 20. Even if both numbers are too high.
I've never had a bad experience with their third party sellers, probably because I check a single checkbox on the sidebar to show only products sold by Newegg. There is no drilling at all, any time you click on search options, they get added to your options in the sidebar, and with one click you can narrow your search at any time.
If you're in a hurry, don't aim for the lowest price. If I want the lowest price on cables, I buy from ebay where it says "mailed directly from Hong Kong" and they show up in 3-30 days.
Since there is so much money involved in patents, having a separate court system [like the bankruptcy court] might make that area of the law more fair.
It would most likely either be more fair, or less. I say lets try it. If it is worse, it will encourage further changes.
A lot of people who were otherwise in the "stick with SysV" crowd fall in love with systemd as soon as they learn the details. It is truly a step forwards over 80s UNIX.
I'm still on 16, and I've been using it since it was "RedHat Linux." I'm not convinced it is some sort of "testing" distro. It is actually mostly a developers distro, that also works really well on servers. It has to have newer stuff because developers need a tool chain that can run the latest versions. It also can't be too bleeding edge, because the servers need stable versions. A lot of the stuff on fedora is many versions in the past, for these reasons. Other stuff is nearly in the future. The big changes, like going from SysV init to systemd, were carefully thought out over a period of years, and they finally changed at a time when a lot of distros are changing. Most of the others chose stuff that is new and has serious known problems, but systemd has been around for years and has proven itself both in practice, and in its architecture. Were there bugs in the transition? Yes. Of course.
You can always choose the version before the current one, and get a polished distro because of the updates.
Hell yeah, 6.2 baybay! That was when I jumped over from slackware.
Still happy. Of course, I'm also still on F16.
yum had problems at first. It was not an instant success. But it has been years since I've had problems that weren't directly related to 3rd party rpm repos. And it manages my mixed 32/64bit build environments perfectly.
Your advice translates basically to, don't ride a bike in a city, even in bike lanes. Or ride on the sidewalk and get squashed by people starting out of driveways, in order to avoid the much safer designated riding locations.
In most places, it isn't a common risk. Nor is transmission associated with things like trying on hats at the clothing store. Also, in the rare event somebody does get lice, it is not associated with any significant health risks. It is a minor annoyance, easily dealt with.
But we're Americans, it would be un-patriotic to check New Zealand media sources. Or that thar liberal media. The only source you can really trust are regular joes calling in to talk shows on AM radio. They'll give you the straight dope on New Zealand cycling.
Reminds me of the Canadian studies showing some treatment reducing heart disease, and the American Heart Association guy saying, well, there is no proof you'd get this result in American hearts.
I know we have more freedom than most places... we must, look how stupid my neighbors are free to be, and they're not even ashamed of it.
Yes, always be aware in a door zone. It is the drivers responsibility to make sure it is clear before opening their door, so don't be shy; be mentally prepared in advance to lift the leg on the same side as the door, and take most of the impact on your leg. Don't worry if your foot might land on the hand opening the door; your job is to reduce your own injury; his job is to check before he opens the door. Also lean towards the car, so your weight stays centered and you're not deflected into a traffic lane. If you do it right, the door hinge will take most of the force.
Don't try this at high speeds, in that case you only have seconds to decide on your last words.
Here in Oregon, over the last 5-10 years almost everybody has switched to wearing helmets. People only laugh at them until maybe 1/4th are wearing them, then it becomes normal, and then the rate goes up every year as more people notice they don't hate helmets anymore, and think about if they want it... for the first time. And the answer is often yes. I live next to an off-street bike path, and it is mostly poor people who aren't wearing them.
Only if by "qualitatively better science" you mean, wishy-washy nonsense that conflates issues. There is not really even a theoretical scenario where the helmet increases the brain injury of the same accident. As other haves pointed out, they could increase the risk of neck injury... in accidents that would otherwise involve abrading the back of the skull.
It is easy to come up with scenarios where the helmet doesn't help, but if the science is so "qualitatively better" how come we don't have a single example? Oh, because it is hand-waving and twisted statistics.
If you mean that the people politically opposed claim to have stronger science than the doctors, I'd say it is probably because the doctors are more cautious in phrasing their claims.

Neither, just delay the one want to use the evidence in until you're cleared in the other one.
The speeding ticket was dismissed because the cop didn't use radar, he just used his speedometer, and the expert witness for the prosecution didn't show up to testify on the calibration of the speedometer.
The point isn't about a "willingness" to do this or that, it is about coercing somebody with the threat of lethal force.
Only because of a special open container law.
That's why parts of it are in Node.js

I feel like I'm constantly fighting my tablet to let me keep using apps for 1 month without updating.
No, android, you can't have any cheesy-poofs. No, android! My cheesy-poofs!

In fairness, I doubt the local farmers know anything about the details. Lets just send all the lawyers in that county to a re-education camp.

If you want to know why hardcore fedora users have been asking for the switch to systemd for many years, here it is:

Here you can rent bicycles and they always have helmets available either for free or as an additional rental.
I'm curious, what contagious disease is spread by bike helmets? (*spoiler: none)
