It doesn't sound that way to me. This network seems to be specifically for moving around research data among the institutions. Internet2 is essentially a playground to research and demonstrate ways to improve the internet.

The petition is specifically about pardoning Snowden. The President cannot pardon someone for a federal crime they have not been convicted of. Snowden literally needs to come back, face the trials, and be convicted before the President could consider to pardon him.

To me, the response is a have your cake and eat it too kind of response. They hint at the technicality of not being able to issue a pardon in a way they sound tough on people like Snowden. Rather than "come out and fight like a man", it is "security, security, security, Snowden hasn't been convicted yet, security, security, security".

The use of 'MVC - MVC4' seems to me to be an acknowledgement that it is no longer a Rails clone.

This isn't just a loud neighbor. This was a drunk loud neighbor waving a loaded gun around.

The driver was clearly distressed and they were just laughing it up.

They intentionally disabled a car in an area with no shoulder. They intentionally introduced a large hazard on the highway. If something happened, they would have been partly responsible. You do not just stop on the highway just because you feel like it.

How is "wouldn't have happened without him being in office" the same as "A did X"?

If universal is not total, then we've always had universal healthcare. Oh, and you might want to inform all dictionaries they have the incorrect definition of universal.

The legislation signed by Obama is not universal healthcare in any sense. Maybe universal health insurance, but certainly not healthcare. Insurance does not make healthcare affordable.

So Hillary couldn't or wouldn't have done the same thing? Personally, I think it would have sailed through much more easily had she been in office.

So hiring people to maintain the car is not the same?

What's the difference between a McDonald's franchisee and an Uber employee? This ruling would seem to indicate a franchise "owner" is nothing but an employee of McDonald.

As stated, it is a trick question. There are too few details and ends with asking for an opinion. One person's willingness rarely is the same as the average expected outcome.

Yes, but there is a difference between expected payout and a person's willingness to play a game of chance. The expected payout of a lottery ticket is the same for every ticket before the drawing, but everyone has a different willingness to purchase tickets. The person is being asked about their willingness to take on risk and not their objective analysis of the payout.

The question is very misleading. There are very little details and you end with asking for an opinion. It sounds to me like a question about how much risk the person is willing to take rather than a math question. The "What are you willing to pay to play this game?" really needs to be replaced with something else. I would never associate this with a math question unless risk tolerance was included in the details. Any questions I might ask would not clue me into it being a math question either.

How is it any worse than cash?

Horrible. My first thought is it sounds like scumpany and is likely to be associated for word play for "scum company".

The way I read it, the 25% is not going to the user directly. It just simply goes into an account the manufacturer controls and is earmarked for the user. The user will only be able to spend it as the manufacturer allows. This is more along the lines of Google Opinion Rewards rather than being part of a mining group.

Just merely writing what you think is a shorter, cleaner, better solution isn't really enough. It can be easy to overlook the reason for the complexity. If the rewrite seems to work as a replacement, just use it to come up with questions about the current code and ask the co-worker. If there are actual reasons for the complexity, add the necessary comments so someone else doesn't have to go through that or find out the hard way.

Personally, I think it is stupid to become attached to one party. You get the current state of US politics when people become so entrenched and invested in one party. People would rather vote in a bad candidate from their chosen party rather than vote for the better candidate.

That is all it is. His twitter feed consists nearly entirely of retweets promoting Democrats and smearing republicans.

So research and information management are not major costs?

Owin is an interface between .NET web servers and web applications.

Mono is an implementation of the .NET runtime and framework.

This is about floating point arithmetic in computers.

Uber is transportation not a place. While I am sure Uber is bound by the ADA, a company like Uber that stayed within a particular state would probably be able to win the case.

According to the pictures linked to in the article, they were 2 SAW devices attached to a board. The total space they took up on the board was about 7mm x 3mm.

I don't see anything about async/await, extension methods, or lambdas. C# has quite a few additions since 2006. I would hate to go back to C# 2. C# 5 is the current and C# 6 coming very soon.

How does one disrespect another without being stupid, ignorant, or mean?

It could be that their monitoring missed this type of outage.

I assume this is CDT. I'm seeing ~5-~9 AM EDT.

You're just holding it wrong.

A political hit job? I'm sorry, but any high level federal employee with a high security clearance sending all official email communications from their personal email server should be investigated. The government is going to have a system in place far better than most can provide.

The only two reasons I can think of why she would choose private over government issued is ease of use and control over access. If it is too bothersome for her to use a government account, then she shouldn't be in the position. If she's afraid she'll leave incriminating evidence, we don't need her.
