That's a different question which is outside of the scope of healthcare in the US IMO.

My position is to take care of that person, like weve been taken care of visiting while other countries, but trying to avoid the illegal/undocumented immigrant strawman for clarity.

There's a simple thought experiment that helps:

- an american citizen break his leg, he is not insured. Do you A: let him die B: take care of him ?

if your answer is A - you are a terrible person, but you hold a consistent position. if your answer is B - the only question that remains is what is the most economic, efficient way to take care of this person ?

b is universal health care. if you think you can do A with emergency care, consider how inefficient and expensive this is, and who ends up paying for it.

nice. whenever i am in between jobs, and are plotting the next thing to do - i turn to lisp :|

There's virtually nothing that Jay asserted in his first interview that stands in his 3rd or 4th. Magically it lined up with the State's case. For me that's an issue more than a blanket 'boys will be boys' statement. AFAIK Asia didn't dissapear but was never called/pursued, and the notes on which her testimony is based predates the tv show by more than 10 years. I agree with your timeline statement, and with the fact that media distorts things a lot as well.

He was her boyfriend and had been in the car many times. I may sound like I'm defending Adnan, but I am not. I just don't think that the case was well prosecuted and or defended, which is either now allowing a killer to walk free or an innocent person to have spend years in jail for something he didnt do.

The police coaching ? The witness lying about, well, pretty much anything ? The defense not calling critical witnesses ? Or pointing out timelines that can't work ?

Much like the Steven Avery case, this case was poorly prosecuted and defended. The case the State brought was unlikely that what actually happened. In the Steve Avery case there was a healthy dose of the police 'enhancing / fabricating' evidence and witness tampering, here it was mostly witness tampering and prosecutorial and defense 'issues'.

If you believe Adnan is guilty - he goes free because of poor prosecution and defense; If you believe Adnan is not guilty - he spend years in jail for a crime he didn't commit - because of poor prosecution and defense.

:(

Someone please correct me - but I don't think that FB sells data. They use it for their own uses, and customers of their advertising platform can use that data to target groups, but I don't think they sell their data to 3rd parties. Am I wrong ?

I agree when the challenge is getting to the goal, but people often quit when they don't believe in the goal anymore.

Lol. Yes, you customers of mongodb ! You’re all wrong and duped by pretty pictures! If just you could achieve the enlightenment of munk-a ! Lol. I’ve seen this idiotic response from the very beginning days of mongo (I worked there). Marketing at mongo did little more than maniacally focusing on making sure our customers and users where tied into the community and supremely supported on any issue they might have. But go on - keep predicting imminent failure, your sentiment is shared by a lot of people who have never build a company and frankly never will.

Nice to see Facebook taking this feedback to heart. Thanks!

This should be standard 'hello world' tutorial for Pragmatic ML.

Really cool tutorial, thanks for writing this up !

Database development is hard - especially from scratch. Oracle reached mainstream stability only in version 5. In the early days you cycle between feature development and stabilization - nothing new there. I like the transparency and commitment from the team. Source: I've been an early database core engineer.

I would not be surprised if it turns out that Alexa is the biggest thing they've ever done, including AWS.

exactly - the options are - shot in the garage with a miracle cleanup (with only blood on the bullet, but no splatters in garage) - killed on the bed with no blood evidence at all. In both cases supposedly dragged to the car (why?), to be then dragged out of the same car back to a burning pit, where only bones from part of her body are found.

the case as presented truly defies any credibility or logical sense.

I have a simple question: according to the prosecution, where was Teresa murdered? In the garage by being shot or on the bed after a violent rape ? In Stevens case it seems to be the former, in Brendan's case the latter. There's virtually no evidence for either hypothesis.

Tim's argument is simply that free is not free: google's business model requires them to monetize your pictures, through advertising etc. Apple's business model is to charge you for it.

Sorry, but the global write lock has been public knowledge since the very early days. Mongo's done nothing to hide that. Also (i worked for 10gen at the time) the "marketing department" that you refer to, was a single person organizing events to give developers what they wanted: knowledge and a community around mongodb.

Do we know whether or not this was the behavior on the site prior to them having to post this ?
