Oh, you see? He was the real victim.

The bubble won’t burst so long as there is more money being printed and companies can just inflate their way out of debt.

I was guilty of that very thing once. During my first programming class back in college, I wrote an Asteroids clone as a project. My professor kept sending it back telling me to fix it. I really racked my brain trying to figure out what he was sending back to me (he wouldn’t tell me, I was supposed to find and correct the error). The game ran just fine. Finally a gave up and asked him to tell me the answer of what my code was doing wrong. He showed me that I had one line of code that was basically making a new instance of the entire game for every screen refresh. (I wrote it in Java, so Java was just correcting it for me in real time.)

It’s funny to me to see people mythologize how perfect video games were before they could be remotely updated.

Sure, game developers rely on fix-it-later updates much more than they should today, but games had bugs back then too.

Progressive voter: “I’m sick of how old cowardly the Democrat party is.”

Me: “Are you going to run for office.”

Progressive voter: “Uh… No. That’s too hard.”

This is, in fact, the opposite of a stable regulatory environment.

That… Is some fucked up shit.

That’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure. My family eats at least one a week.

Actually you need more than a few.

Remember, when push comes to shove, not a single Republican voted to remove him from office after he tried to kill them.

No that’s not it.

There are just a few left in the GOP that are smart enough to realize that the White “Christian” state that is developing isn’t going to put them on top like they thought it would…

In Dallas, you can get one at Sam’s Club or Costco for $5.

And “old” in this case means “cooked this morning”.

Rotisserie chicken is like the absolute cheapest food a person can buy.

Me: I promise I won’t go on car dependancy rants tonight

Walks one block down the street

Me: Okay! Listen can I just point one thing out…

Her: so what are you interested in?

Me: Mostly how car dependent suburban development has eroded all forms of social capital and has torn our communities apart so completely that it’s functionally impossible to even call or neighborhoods and towns “communities” anymore. … But, uh, what are you interested in?

NATO is one of those instances where I generally agree with Trump on the issue at hand, and then strongly disagree with him on the solutions to the issue.

Like going back to his first administration, I actually agreed with Trump that NATO is a bad deal for America, and also even a bad deal for the other NATO nations. But the solution back then should have been a slow 10-15 year dissolution of NATO. Give Europe time to reorganize themselves, and then end the cold war era alliance. If we has started that process in 2016, Europe would be ten years further along in their own self reliance.

(Where Trump got everything wrong was that instead of actually developing a realistic plan for the dissolution of NATO, he just used the threat of America immediately pulling out to extort our friends.)

Europe would be better off just developing their own weapons systems rather than trying to hack a 35.

Any computer can be jailbroken if you have complete access to it.

The question is more, “do you really want to fly a hacked jet”?

I’m aware of that case, and if you read the language of the bill it doesn’t address that situation very well.

That case is a weird one because I actually think both sides, the student and the graduate assistant grader, were wrong. And ultimately I think the GA was more wrong because the GA held the position of authority in the situation. I generally think that those in authority should be held to more strict standards.

In that specific case that you, there was a very clear scoring rubric published that the GA was supposed to follow. (You can find the rubric published online.) There is no possible way a rational person could read the grading rubric and conclude the student deserved a 0. Yes, it was a very stupidly written essay, but it wasn’t a zero -not if you follow the published rubric. The student was given a zero only because of religious discrimination. The grader should have followed the rubric. If the grader has followed the rubric then the student still would have likely failed the assignment, but the grader would have been able to justify the grade and would probably have avoided getting disciplined.

That’s my position on that. I’m sure you disagree and believe the student was 100% at fault.

I think you should also include the Iraq War. Evangelicals set a lot of their identity in their belief that the War on Terror would be the final Holy War that would bring about the Kingdom of Christ (with them at the top, of course). But instead their holy war turned into an undeniable catastrophe in front of their eyes.

And also Jesus didn’t come back like he was supposed to.
