anu_gupta··on The British are Googling what the E.U. is, hours after voting to leave it
Wow talk about someone not prepared to look at data but instead sneer and insult . Quelle surprise (that's French by the way)

It's also not like your 'perfect' system wasn't financed by of the dirtiest money humanity has ever seen.

The US doesn't have true freedom of speech. I can give you many examples of things that you aren't allowed to say in the US.
anu_gupta··on If no-one helps you after a car crash in India, this is why
Yes, that's fair. I should have flagged it and moved on.

Good. More than happy to not have people like you anywhere near India.

anu_gupta··on Tesla’s bioweapon mode is a stroke of genius for developing markets
From the article

"India is also struggling tremendously; the country has the dubious honor of claiming 13 of the 20 slots in the top most-polluted cities in the world. "

> If I leave cash on the street should I expect it to be safe? Is that a deep security issue?

Exactly. This is why, where there are trusted and easy to access alternatives, people generally don't possess and carry around large amounts of cash.

anu_gupta··on Leicester City: Dirty Dozen or Harvard Case Study?
I think that the major concentration of PED issues is in sports that are focused on individual performances, eg athletics, cycling, baseball. The effects of PEDs (unless it's a team wide programme) have much less impact in team sports. It's also much, much harder to keep secret. People and players with axes to grind and all that.

That's not to say there isn't drug taking going on; but to imply that's the reason for Leicester's success this season is indeed controversial, and as far as I can see, without merit.

Chelsea have had a startling decline from champions last year to mid table fodder, this year. Does that mean they've stopped doping?

anu_gupta··on College Sex-Assault Trials Belong in Court, Not Campus (2014)
It does matter. The charges are different, the sentencing is different.

Negligent homicide is not murder.

> n. I wrote my post specifically gender-neutral so as to prepare for the inevitable accusation of sexism, and then reveal that in my example the female was the perpetrator.

Not really interested in engaging with someone who merely wants to set traps for people.

anu_gupta··on Born for it – How the image of software developers came about
The problem is that it's hard to argue with racist trolls. Pretty much anything you do plays into their need for attention and an audience.

Still, i upvoted you, and hopefully you won't get banned.

anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
> Incidentally, calm down a bit - you sound pretty outraged yourself!

This seems to be your pattern when you get upset. You've told someone else they were being defensive, now you're saying I need to calm down.

I guess that's easier than rebooting a server and turning off SIP.

anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
No, I'm just bored of faux-outrage and agenda pushing.

If this is such a critical issue, then reboot your Mac and disable SIP. 5 minutes and done. In the time it's taken you to post all your comments here, you could have fixed it.

[edited to add]

It's not like SIP was a secret - it was one of the major features of El Capitan. Didn't you do any research before upgrading your mission critical server to El Capitan?

anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
I'm talking about how you got this version of git on this server. A server that's so mission critical that you're not allowed to reboot it.

Why would you install Xcode on such a important box?

anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
So you install development tools like XCode on a server?
anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
So reboot your machine and disable it if you want. Aren't you able to do that for some reason?
anu_gupta··on Remote code execution, git, and OS X
I look forward to your release of something better

anu_gupta··on Toddlers Kill More People in the USA (with guns) Than Terrorists Do
I guess it's almost as remarkable as the number of people in the USA who actually get killed by police.
anu_gupta··on Toddlers Kill More People in the USA (with guns) Than Terrorists Do
Wait. How many drones were there in Vietnam?

And I guess experienced combatants with surface to air missiles are "regular people with guns".

anu_gupta··on Yelp Fired a Single Mother Today: Me
In which a bunch of privileged males cast judgement from their perches on someone who's clearly had to make some unpleasant choices, some of which may even have been poor ones.

> . I wont hire such a person.

I wouldn't hire someone with as little compassion and humanity as you. I feel as if you're projecting your anger for some reason.

anu_gupta··on Airport security in America discovered more than seven guns per day in 2015
Shampoo isn't very similar to a gun.

I can't find any stats, but I wouldn't be surprised if the number of people killed by aggressive use of shampoo was close to zero.

anu_gupta··on Airport security in America discovered more than seven guns per day in 2015
Anyone who categorises a gun in the same terms as their wallet shouldn't be allowed to own a gun.

You can apologise for that inadequate scumbag all you want, but we both know that he does mean it.
anu_gupta··on Really rich people are suddenly paying quite a bit more in taxes
Good. About time some of these people paid their fair share instead of exploiting loopholes that they can access because they have so much wealth.
anu_gupta··on How three teenagers invented an app to police the cops
Yes, What else could it possibly have been about? You don't seem to be a native English speaker, so I thought you didn't understand what "aren't means.

It's a bit curious that you haven't answered my original question, or come back with anything substantive apart from expressing surprise at someone not understanding what you meant by "Aren't?"
