3 Key Software Principles You Must Understand by udelbluein programming

[–]redalastor 4 points5 points ago

I follow the rule of thumb that it's okay to repeat myself once.

Over 400 students arrested in Canada during the latest night of mass rallies against tuition fee hikes. Tensions have spiraled after the adoption of a bill that limits students’ rights to freedom of speech, association and assembly by karnovichvaluain worldnews

[–]redalastor 0 points1 point ago

Exactly.

But 7 years from now the new rate would be $1700 more every single year (if they don't decide to continue jacking it up then) so it's better to fight for those guys right now than let it slip.

Ok then.

But can you explain how come the 0.01% of bad apples get aways with that much mayhem with the other 99.99% around?

That's the whole point. If he genuinely needs to use it to defend himself, he won't hesitate.

Freedom of assembly (of 10 50 persons an more) can now be vetoed by the police (and they must be warned 8 hours in advance).

Edit: Fixed the number of person required to trigger the law, I read the draft before which was 10 but the final version says 50.

Call them, it works better.

Ask they take a stand against our premier. If they can increase the pressure on him, it'd be good.

The idea is that in 7 years the increase will be $1700. So next year it would be $250 more. The year after $250 more than this year and so on.

Are you missing the point on purpose?

If the burden of justification was heavy then the officer would not use more force than he needs because he'd make his life harder by doing so. How is that a difficult concept?

They need to have just as much documentation that needs filling when used to justify their use every single time than guns do.

That way, they would stop being the most convenient tool.

Javascript thinks that 64.99 * 100 is 6498.999999... Go ahead, try it any way you like. If someone can explain this, I'll be eternally grateful. by collin_phin programming

Yes.

Don't rely on floats if you require precision, most of the time it appears to work and when it doesn't it will bite you in the ass with the most subtle bugs.

How is it that God is all-powerful yet he has no control over Satan? by vgunmangain DebateAChristian

[–]redalastor 0 points1 point ago

Then we don't have free will. Either God doesn't know what we'll do in advance (in that case he isn't omniscient) or he does (and we don't have free will).
