Re:Amazon postpones return to office until January 2022 on Thursday August 05, 2021 @05:23PM (#28080064)
"The vaccines provide nearly perfect protection against serious outcomes."

I am vaccinated, however, my young child is not. If I get a breakthrough case, I don't want to spread it to my kid. I know this is anecdotal, but... my wife's office just closed because of a breakthrough case, and another friend was recently exposed to someone with a breakthrough case.

Can you expand on that? How do you get out of paying taxes?

I know it would be nice to have it built in to GitHub, but you can try this as well: http://first-commit.com/ (and comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10610065)
Re:The secret message hidden in every HTTP/2 connection on Monday November 30, 2015 @11:37AM (#10650227)
I named my hobby HTTP2 server after that string in the connection header:

https://github.com/gregory144/prism-web-server

(obviously haven't had much time to work on it lately).

That is one of the main advantages of HTTP2 - it's called server push. When the server receives a request, it can send the headers for the requested resource plus the headers for as many related resources as it wants. The client can choose to either disable this, or reject pushed streams when it receives their headers.
I agree with you that this would be a great experiment. However, that won't stop any potential bias once they get the job.
Re:Reminder: Oh, Won't You Please Shut Up? (2011) on Thursday March 19, 2015 @12:11AM (#9230155)
My point was that he's making it seem like this happens a lot without actually quantifying it. It seems misleading to me.
Re:Reminder: Oh, Won't You Please Shut Up? (2011) on Wednesday March 18, 2015 @10:18PM (#9229879)

  But in the last 12 years, I've seen it in a dozen cases...
Once a year, throughout the country? How many thousands of investigations are performed per year? Doesn't seem very likely to happen.
Re:Why Federal College Ratings Won’t Rein in Tuition on Sunday September 21, 2014 @11:57PM (#8349157)
I think you're being a little harsh. S/he was listing things that are not essential to a college education. The second point is referring to a different type of college education - one that obviously needs the internet since it would exist on the internet.

Also, Wifi != internet access. You can get to the internet without Wifi.

How is using something from a TV show taking your self too seriously?
Re:Tesla Model S JSON API on Sunday June 29, 2014 @09:25PM (#7963212)
I agree with you, but I have trouble understanding the right way to implement "commands" like this - I must be thinking about it in the wrong way. How would you design a "real" REST interface for a command like this? What's the advantage a "real" REST interface gives you in this case?
Re:HTTP/2.0 – Please admit defeat on Monday May 26, 2014 @10:47PM (#7802610)
Can't the client side do this already (with HTTP/1.1) by turning off cookies?

Or are you pushing for browsers to turn off cookies by default?

I bet the "redefinition" is intentional.
Re:Haskell in the Newsroom [video] on Wednesday April 02, 2014 @11:59PM (#7520859)
Why do you say that unit testing is pointless in Haskell?

Edit: My bad - I missed the 100% part.

Re:An old system and a SWAT team on Sunday January 19, 2014 @09:38PM (#7087208)
I don't think "swatting" is a common enough term to assume that everyone knows what it means. I certainly didn't.
Re:Why Does A Good Kettle Cost $90+? on Sunday January 19, 2014 @08:39PM (#7087026)
It's possible he did consider that fact and the kettle wasn't on the same circuit with another high draw appliance.

Re:Poll: Where are you currently living? on Sunday October 20, 2013 @11:39PM (#6583170)
It will probably be more accurate than doing this poll manually (many people won't submit their data).
You'd have to make a network call for each x,y coordinate you test in that case.

So... Angry Birds cures cancer?
