I mean, medicine is not science, it is an applied science. Applying biology, chemistry, and physics to the attempted betterment of health. Akin to the difference between physics and engineering.

> This implies that Citadel is buying the stock before selling it to you.

Large firms do this business as usual. They maintain inventory and sell it to their customers directly, while still reporting the trade to the market audit trail. This is usually done by the private brokerage side of the firm executing all trades through the public investment side, and the investment side just executes the trade against the house inventory instead of a third party buyer/seller in the market.

Agreed. Survival requires it. Still feels like a shame to knowingly spend a lot of your time making garbage for money. MLIA

It's a project management methodology, not a software development methodology. Some of these gripes seem not to be accusations of the method but actually the application by whatever organization.

There are other points of view?
It is illegal.
Smaller regional entities doesn't work if there exist larger global entities. Government or corporation, doesn't matter. City hall can't fight USA or Walmart.
The article is not about cultural identity. It is about membership in a country/nation/state versus not.
Re:The End of Prison Visitation on Monday May 09, 2016 @10:30AM (#11660086)
Pretty simple, in my opinion. Not everyone in jail or prison is as yet convicted. Prison sentences do not explicitly include this kind of restriction.

You can't just arbitrarily decide how to treat prisoners. Moreover after the fact of their sentencing. Let alone people who are in prison who are not convicted or sentenced.

There are many other explanations.
Most code is compiled. Their code is compiled, minified, not licensed, and not attributed.
Writing obfuscators.
Some people find them charming, and like a little chuckle with their articles.
Dianne Feinstein doesn't understand the law.

So much of the notation is not codified, and is part of the artistry of the musician. Even if all those Italian/French words are included (martele, staccato, largo, et al.), and crescendos and ritards and are marked, one cannot play the tune from sight with the desired emotion without first hearing it or playing it over and over.
