He’s got 99 care-ofs but a percentage ain’t one.

For Whom The Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemmingway is set during this period. Just a side note.

I’m not debating. It is not a matter of opinion. I’m doing you the courtesy of informing you how the entire rest of the world uses the term.

If action A looks for thing X, and it finds thing X, then the test is positive. If action A fails to find thing X, then the test is negative.

If action A claims to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is not really there, then this situation is called “false positive”.

If action A claims fails to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is actually there, then this situation is called “false negative”.

That thing X may subjectively be considered an unwanted outcome has **nothing ** to do with the terms used.

Just so you know, if your doctor calls and tells you that your HIV test is positive, you probably shouldn’t run out and celebrate.

If everyone should learn to read, it would not only ruin writing but thinking as well.

We are in our suffix-punk arc. We’re such word-pilled portmanteau-maxxers.

They are named after the hero who goes back in time to save Sarah Connor from the Terminator.

Also, you are too old to be picking on school children.

I didn’t like that movie.

After all these years I still don’t know how to look at what I’ve coded and tell you a big O math formula for its efficiency.

I don’t even know the words. Like is quadratic worse than polynomial? Or are those two words not legit?

However, I have seen janky performance, used performance tools to examine the problem and then improved things.

I would like to be able to glance at some code and truthfully and accurately and correctly say, “Oh that’s in factorial time,” but it’s just never come up in the blue-collar coding I do, and I can’t afford to spend time on stuff that isn’t necessary.

One of the most valuable things my dad taught me was how to take good advice from an asshole.

Years and years ago at a house party, some woman from Cork and a friend of mine from Belfast were joking and they said, “Because Ulster says”, and I had no idea what they were talking about.

Maybe he is expecting racial interactions to be more like what is in Shakiest Gun in the West?

So in the OP’s original timeline there is a flexible CI pipeline tool named Adolph. Huh…

None of the answers I’ve read so far actually answer your question with basic facts.

When you invest then you are buying a tangible financial instrument: a share of a company or a treasury bill or a municipal bond and so on. There is the expectation that over time, the value of your financial instrument will increase in value but this is not guaranteed. The lack of guarantee is the risk. Some instruments are riskier than others. The level of risk does not define gambling.

When you walk into a casino and bet money on roulette, what are you buying? You are buying nothing more than a fleeting chance at winning more money. It is entertainment by thrill. There is no tangible thing that you own from gambling.

Investing is one way that companies can raise capital to expand their business. Business expansion can lead to greater employment and higher standard of living. For investing to work as an economic system there must be liquidity. Someone must be willing to buy your financial instrument later at a higher price or some town must still be collecting taxes to pay back your bond years later.

Hopefully you can see now why investing is encouraged and supported in society and gambling is either illegal or merely tolerated.

Back in the day there were only re-tweets and bookmarks. Then Facebook likes became popular and Twitter changed bookmarks which could be private or public into fully public likes. So annoying. Likes should have never existed on Twitter.

Ding! Fries are done!

Long before the duck gained popularity – and I still can’t talk to a toy – I walk around and explain things to a phantom off in the corner of my mind, and I use bold hand gestures.

I think it’s more like, imagine if all the shares of Amazon were confiscated from Bezos and his main henchmen and his original remaining backers, and then those shares were equally redistributed to Amazon employees and contractors. I don’t think the workers would disagree with that move.

It’s also a movie too with Daniel Day-Lewis. He’s kinda hard to forget.
