I like to code.
No, you die faster if you drink seawater.
Every account of people stranded at sea that survived points to them getting hydrated through rainwater, or fish/turtle blood that they hunted, or even dirty non salty water enemas.
Not 15 foot, 15m. 15feet ~ 5m, so 45 feet ~ 15m
German is a must today if you want to obtain residency and stabilize your life here.
Well yeah, learning the local language is a requirement for a lot of countries on the path to citizenship.
Highest COL in the country, a lot of it due to regulations, zoning and prop 13 which prevent density and building. Paris has the same area as SF but 3X the population.
it requires return only when funded by US government program
Not true, I had J1 visas without US government program intervention and I still had the home requirement. Since there wasn't any US government intervention I was able to get a waiver for the home requirement, but it took a couple of months.
Yeah, most of us think of tech, but the program affects doctors, nurses and teachers for rural America.
The Unified Memory pool is what will continue to be the “game changer” in systems architecture, especially outside of data centers.
The ps4 was the prime example of this, and how it could run so many great games.
Thought experiment: if you had five million dollars extra right now, would you have a kid tonight?
Yes, next question
From the existing series
Which one? Universe? Atlantis? SG1?
How do you use it, as in, hey, write a doc about this, or do you iterate more like a conversation?

Not so much anymore, still a lot but much less than it used to be
Design wise, compared to previous Ferrari designs, a kick in the nuts is nicer than this.
Looks like a Tesla with a Ferrari logo.
Just saw it and wow, that's an accurate description. Gone is everything that makes a Ferrari a Ferrari
That's the one, thanks!
There is the non boxing option, and this is the first iteration of the work, it's not one and done.
This is a nice feature to have, it already tells you if an artist you like is coming to your city, and redirects to Ticketmaster for tickets, but it doesn't have the data to know if you already bought a ticket, so it keeps pestering you. Also, some competition against Ticketmaster is welcomed.
I still remember the one where they nuked all the storage of I think an Australian insurance company I think, luckily the it department had done a multi cloud setup for backups
For the religion bits, if I remember correctly, it was a bit of Hyperion but mostly the Endymion books, which are the latter half of the cantos.
This reminds me of the second half of the Hyperion cantos by Dan Simmons
But then I learned humility, and I don't believe in good intentions anymore.
I don't either, I agree with that's how they sell it, the problem is that the marketing works and good intentioned people rally behind it, so the saying still applies.
Both (i) and (ii) have led the government to this dark place, thinking they're doing good.
You can summarize a lot of government actions of any spectrum with: "The road to hell is full of good intentions"

Often I get asked to spot someone while their lift and I don’t mind, maybe you had bad luck.
Don’t leave your house if you don’t want to interact with people
I did comp sci, I sucked at this stuff, and I have a masters.
Low level stuff? Os? Distributed systems? Multithreaded code? Now that’s more on my alley
They should live within their means and save 15% of their income if possible.
The guy has a masters in compsci and mechanical engineering, he has done both python and c++ afaik for his projects
I have a bridge to sell you

Source for Seattle? I know there was a state law a couple years ago allowing for more housing, but I haven't seen reports of its effects.
