We are committed to keeping the Brainfuck community healthy -- best sentence ever

I don't know what happened and I fully admit that, but let's take the cop section out of it, so none of this "Cops lie all the time" business.

    1) A person was shot by someone at the scene

    2) A different person who was in conflict with the first person had a gun with the same ballistic profile (caliber etc.)

    3) There are two separate parties with an interest in the outcome who witnessed the crime

    4) The first party with an interest, was actively aggrivating people at the scene, causing hightened tensions

    5) The second party was in direct conflict with the first

I have a hard time believing the first party shot their own in order to press charges on the second party. It doesn't pass the Occam's razor test, TBH

EDIT: I suck at formatting

Why aren't people paid a full time salary for the work they're expected to do instead of the time they sit at a desk? It's a question I genuinely struggle with.

If the employee is doing all that's expected of them, then the "contract for owning someone for a period of time" (not my words - and relatively creepy) should be fulfilled. It doesn't seem a period of time that is expected but a force of work delivered.

I am willing to be wrong in this assumption, however, given the right argument.

He needed to look at hardware platforms of the past. If you can't get people to develop for a system and make good apps, then the hardware is useless.

It's a matter of priorities. If we decide these things are important as a nation they don't have to be scarce. We make the best war machines on the planet and spend a lot of money on them. That is more of a priority than the good health of our nation.

It can't be too much of a surprise that a lot of white collar jobs involve a fair amount of BS. I have 3 to 4 meetings a day and only 1 or 2 are really necessary =[

What do you see as your best routes to monetization on the Apple v. Android and how FTP differs on each platform? Also, what routes of promotion have you been taking to build a customer base?

Sorry to ask so many questions, but as a maker of personal projects which are games, I'm curious about the promotion and monetization of mobile games =)

There's just so much data available, I don't see how it couldn't be the prevailing trend.

This! I have resisted the Apple platform due to personal tastes but if they get the blood sugar monitor working (which they say they're close to), I'll switch my entire platmorm ecosystem over to Apple for that one specific feature.

LOL, according to this, my family's group text thread is illegal under this law, as DMs can only be between 2 people.

EDIT: serious question; would Slack be professional networking or, how does that work under this bill? It's DMing for business, but it isn't really networking.

It's almost sad to admit these days but Flash started me down my path with Actionscript. It was the first language I thought I could really use and threw myself into, creating small games for the web (at the time). It was a blast!

So, first off, I am not very literate when it comes to the comings and goings of banking procedures, so forgive me if this is a dumb question.

Would an incident like this make other banks shore up their defenses about this sort of thing happening to them, or will more banks fall due to market conditions in general?

Drugs ate pushed on television stations a hundred times a day. There are so many commercials for drugs, it's disheartening. There are adds to be more beautiful, thinner, more muscular with drugs and products that promise all of these things. Syrupy sugar drink commercials and fast food restaurants are plastered on TV and print all day, everyday. All for the kids to see.

Don't forget the evils of "harmful lyrics" that Tipper Gore saved us from. That was teaching children forbidden concepts like inner city music and dangerous metal music.

At that point, why bother to allow gambling or alcohol a place in society. If people truly have no self determination, why not let a state or federal agency dictate all of their rights and wrongs. Eat only what's good for you because if it isn't healthy and slimming, you can't say anything about it because obese people are an "at risk" population. No more addictive medications of any kind. Doctors aren't agents of the state and couldn't possibly be as educated as a government representative, like your congressman. And intimating that your government officials lied to the public at large would be strictly verboten, I'm sure.

You don't think it might have something to do with the billion dollar campuses FAANG companies had built?

This is exactly why I didn't get a degree in biology. Organic chem was at 7:30 in the morning and I couldn't cut it that early in the morning. All the lectures just washed over me.

All worked out in the end though =)

Isn't that attrition going to happen anyway? And with mass layoffs, wouldn't top talent, with plenty of options, be wary of a company who is likely to layoff 7% of its staff to please stockholder share pricing? I don't know the answer to top talent retention, but it seems easier and less expensive to turn your existing staff into "top talent" under the tutelage of the existing top talent and implement a hiring freeze with no huge news cycle.

If you want a somewhat existential answer, I treat my life like I treat my art. It's open for interpretation but I know what I'm trying to say with my life. Figure out what you want your life to say and create it as best you can.
