You are wrong, the ability to spend it in no way removes your tax liability. Currency traders still owe taxes on their gains, it doesn't matter what currency it is, if you make gains you owe taxes. You don't owe money because you convert to fiat, you owe money because you made gains.

You've got sympathy and empathy backwards there bub, just FYI.

It's not slander when it's true, it's just reporting. 75M people thankfully see through his con man act, and override the 70 million rubes that can't see it and incorrectly assume the entire media is wrong and Trump is right rather than seeing the obvious, Trump is exactly what the media says he is. Nor is this a surprise, he's been a known con since the mid 1980's.

You're making the incorrect assumption that people want the same thing for their local government as for their national government; this isn't correct. One should expect centrist candidates to dominate national elections and more extreme candidates to win state and local elections. When you're trying to sell something to the whole nation, the more bland, the more it'll sell, extreme is niche, this applies in music, movies, and political candidates.

Local candidates answer to local populations, they should be what that population wants; national candidates have to represent everyone, they should not be extreme in any direction or they'll be despised and hated by half the population that swings the other way.

Absolute nonsense, you can do all of that server side as well.

> The goal is to maximize company success and overall employee satisfaction.

That's two goals which might require different values of X, and while the owner/CEO might agree with making company success a priority, he's not likely to make employee satisfaction his goal and it's his company. Unless it's a co-op, employee satisfaction is likely not a realistic goal. The goal is making the owners the most money, not providing enjoyable jobs to employees. Production of jobs is a side effect of trying to make money, which the goal.

> It's the job of the police to de-escalate.

No, it isn't. It's the job of the police to enforce the law, if necessary with overwhelming force.

> Property destruction should absolutely not be met with violence, no. Things can be replaced. People cannot.

Um, no. I value my property more than I value your life, the law happens to agree with me, deadly force can be used to defend my property. Property destruction should be, and is, met with deadly violence; your right to life does not outrank my right to my property.

> Why would someone want to convert their money into a currency that is meant to inflate? reply

To spend it of course, that is the purpose of money. You convert wealth to money so you can trade it for some other wealth.

> If I have a currency and someone hoards, my currency goes up in value based on supply and demand.

Not a desired trait in a useful currency, the purpose of currency is to be spent, not saved; it's a mechanism to exchange wealth, not store it. Good currency has a predictable long term value, it is not subject to the wild swings of supply and demand. The world abandoned the type of currency you want long ago as it was found wanting.

> The only reason I hold FED notes is because the government forces me to do so.

As it should be. Money isn't wealth, money is the tool we use to exchange wealth.

The way apps have always been run, directly on the server with no intermediate magic layer trying to abstract away running on a server. Deployment and rollback, simple git, centralized logging, good old syslog, load balancing it all, haproxy. No fuss, no muss, simple and straight forward with no magic required.

No, it isn't. It's extra complexity most don't need.

No, non-refundable means non-refundable. You don't have a right to expect your money back under any circumstance.

> So is a hotel denying you a refund during an epidemic.

No it isn't. They're not your family, they don't owe you a refund, you agreed to the cancellation policy at purchase time. Abide by the terms or you are the one in the wrong.

They're not all writers, some just invented things like the Wiki. The original wiki, the portland pattern repository, was a hotbed of discussion among those programmers about the practices that eventually became known as agile. It was an amazing place to hang out and debate patterns, languages, and architecture with other passionate developers. There's been nothing like it since.

But from the writers:

    * Refactoring
    * Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture
    * Smalltalk Best Practice Patterns
    * Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and    Practices
    * Domain-Driven Design
    * Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
    * The Pragmatic Programmer
    * Design Patterns
    * Analysis Patterns
    * Implementation Patterns

Fowler is the most prolific writer of the bunch, but he was largely documenting and naming what he saw all of them doing.
