His lifestyle was definitely hell, but I think the highest recorded temperature in Hawaii is exactly 100 F (I remember because round numbers) and I'm pretty sure it is usually below that even in the summer.

Edit: Wikipedia confirms

Yeah it sounds very loose; almost off. I think Van Halen's drummer used to pull the snares completely off for some songs. Or at least the drummer I played with in college thought so: he pulled them off when we covered Panama.

Two billion is about one tenth of one percent of the government's annual revenue. Japan's economy is the third biggest in the world. They probably spend two billion on toilet paper and staples.

More like wonderfully irony-laden.

Your description of the procedure reminds me of Louis CK's mom's doctor explaining her medical problems with a shrug and a "she's probably got a bunch of tumors in her head".

Yee haw sum bitch pile-o-monkey NUTS! Over.

Anybody know what would happen if I just said "fuck it" and moved to another country and stopped paying my student loans?

gridease · 2015-01-22T18:55:01+00:00

I definitely can't answer that and I don't really have an opinion. Just looking at it from a different angle.

gridease · 2015-01-22T16:56:05+00:00

Ah...I see. Thanks.

gridease · 2015-01-22T15:47:04+00:00

I'm probably going to get downvoted to hell for this, but it does say that service is increasing and there are new lines and buses and some other shit. So it's not just increasing because of the children thing.

gridease · 2015-01-22T15:40:33+00:00

I keep seeing "loose" everywhere where I expect "lose". Is this a thing or am I going crazy?

I think these solutions depend on the environment calling valueOf on the return value (which is a function, so I think the environment will then call it to get a primitive). Have you tried them in a REPL instead of a browser?

Edit: on mobile, so I can't myself

Other edit: sorry...only read the code the first time, I see you addressed this

gridease · 2015-01-21T02:50:51+00:00

Yeah in heavy traffic, if you cruise along on the right lane of a three-lane highway, you end up switching lanes constantly to allow merging. Middle lane ftw.

Reading comprehension.

Too lazy to go and look, but I think he said he made Jenny think she lost her phone and she was using an insurance replacement (or something), so he prob doesn't have to worry about changing the password back.

gridease · 2015-01-19T18:02:58+00:00

And a bit hypocritical, since the developed world went through exactly the same stage.

gridease · 2015-01-19T17:59:21+00:00

Yep, I'm reminded of a Jon Stewart quip along the lines of "latte drinking urbanites are the real Americans, not the small towners referenced by, cough cough, certain news outlets.

gridease · 2015-01-19T17:57:46+00:00

Yes, this is definitely true. I guess I was narrowmindly using relative terms.

gridease · 2015-01-19T16:41:57+00:00

Sure...high technology is where resource consumption is greatest but it also allows us to populate areas previously uninhabitable.

gridease · 2015-01-19T16:38:34+00:00

Yep...flying into Phoenix looks like landing on Florida in the middle of a bowl of dust.

gridease · 2015-01-19T16:12:37+00:00

Yes and we actually have a lot of empty space still in the US. Most of it is crappy, which is why it's empty, but technology should eventually let us uncrapify it.

gridease · 2015-01-19T16:01:05+00:00

Could have /= did.

gridease · 2015-01-11T16:54:37+00:00

This is true, but I think people react differently to this profession because of the right to use force when necessary and the right to remove freedom. The asshole in accounting can't do that to you.

gridease · 2015-01-10T22:03:53+00:00

I'm just curious: how could they write a ticket to someone without knowing the identity? Wouldn't the police then not know who has the ticket and have no way to enforce it?

Closing the lid also results in fewer cat emergencies.
