    Is bottom decile consumption a good measure of economic health? In a way it seems it could signal the opposite, ie in the past the bottom decile was saving that money in an effort …

    The original complaint cites no minimum land ownership requirement and the judgement does not seem to make specific disagreement with this fact as best I can tell, so that is my un…

    Is there some kind of ambiguity inherent in designated initializers such that the field ordering requirement is necessary for C++ or is it rather just a quirk of the compiler autho…

    If I give you a piece of titanium and tell you a piece of lead with equivalent volume would have greater mass I have in no way said the density of titanium is zero.

    I agree that not engaging would have been preferable and is going forward.

    What you infer from reading the text is your problem, not mine. My follow up comment articulates exactly my position.

    I don’t doubt that people feel this way. I doubt that every new account inflating the apparent consensus is genuine.

    Nobody “needed” the web to do these things. We decided that the effort and cost of making native applications was too great. I’d argue we went the wrong way given that even the sam…
