This is going to be the test of Trump and Co's power. We will be in some crazy dictatorship with judicial backing. At that point i doubt Congress will do anything to stop this.

Sometimes you work in a codebase that was decided on by others for reasons you don't know.

The idea would be that the Gov renegotiates the loan, pays off some portion of the interest to make sure that all of us have money in savings expecting return to get it, and then the home owners would get a more reasonable rate. The government would also have to tell all the bank shareholders to take a long walk off a short pier. Oh and jail the C-level

The problem though was that many of the people taking on those horrible rates were people or properties that were bad investments. And the government never really cares enough to punish white collar crimes even they are industry wide like this. Look at Wells Fargo. They full on committed fraud, signing people up for accounts without their knowledge and no one went to jail. If you or I did that for one individual its a felony. But if you're the bank itself its no big deal. WF should have been broken up and sold off and a bunch of people should be living in a cell.

They aren't the same thing so the comparison is weird.

endl has a flush which is important when doing something like embedded work or RTOS development. If i was doing multiple lines they all were \n until the last line when i actually want to push the buffer.

Obviously depending on the tuning of the compiler's optimization multiple flushes could be reduced but the goal should always be to write as optimal as possible.

I never get those responses from companies.

"After we treated you like shit, how would you like to continue to work here?"

It's pretty cut and dry. Most if not all states would not even put him on the ballot and the right would have to fight to explain why this doesn't say exactly what it says.

I'm imagining those early rocket failures where they just fall over and burst into flames.

It is the mechanism by which you get normal people to fund and promote horrible acts. How else could you get your grandmother to pay for hiding pedophiles from the law?

Sadly i don't think that will happen unless there is a substantial degradation of the quality of life in red states. The failure and the cause needs to be so mind numbingly apparently to even the most entrenched Trump supporter that they actually force their representative to join in on real reform. Unfortunately if we do have another election and control switches it's most likely going to still have 40% or more of the voting population have political blindness. Farmers will lose their farms and still vote Republican.

Then again you have female Republican voters and minority Republican voters, and farmer Republican voters... all who voted for their own destruction so I guess I shouldn't be too astonished.

It's the same as good ol' Mitch. He can hate others and not in one specific case. Being racist doesnt mean you have to be all the time.

What I don't get is how she could marry him. Who signs up or stays with someone who promotes hate for every aspect of yourself?

 

Just got a new case for my v3 and now all it is doing is going through a power cycle loop showing the splash screen and nothing more. Pulled the battery and tried only USB power but same result.

Has anyone seen this issue? Running the current beta firmware and it was working fine for a few weeks so i doubt it's a SW issue.

 

My wife wanted to order a spice rack for our kitchen that fit in the cabinet. Our current setup was just a mess so she found one on Amazon and called to me to get the tape measure out in the garage. I yelled back...grab the tailor's tape in the junk drawer. Sure enough it was sitting between the set of random keys, a new bag of neon fish bait and an assortment of 9 volt batteries.

So...whatdaya got in yer junk drawer?
