It should be noted that anti-dumping laws are abused to an insane extent. Organizations in the U.S. which benefit from them obviously hold much greater political power than their Chinese rivals, and are able to manipulate the system to shut down competition. Simply producing for less than the U.S. cost of manufacture has been successfully used as an argument to put "anti-dumping" regulations in place.
...and said open market is manipulated by the U.S. government. A big part of the positive effect of QE is because it acts as beggar-thy-neighbor currency devaluation.
Firefox suffers from horrible memory leaks that the devs either don't care about or lie about fixing in every single version for the last...3 years? Its javascript engine is slow as hell. Start-up is slow. Updating breaks addons. Firefox is worse at following standards than Chrome! My development process at the moment is to code for Chrome because it renders stuff correctly, then hack the code so that non-compliant browsers like Firefox and IE will also display right.
What are you, 5 years old? Haven't seen such naivete since I went to primary school.
The difference being of course that the iPad is a large cellphone, while tablet PCs are PCs in tablet form. Completely different hardware and capabilities.
You are an insane person. I know your mind fights against this concept, but it is the truth. You are insane, and you should seek medical help as quickly as you can.
Microsoft hardware is amazingly bad. They make no mechanical keyboards, so that immediately puts them out of the top ~20 or so keyboard makers. As for the mice...they're more of a practical joke than actual pointing devices.
How can you even mention Baldur's Gate in the context of Dragon Age...the quality difference between the two games is simply astounding.
As mentioned above, that's due to increases in minimum wage and social safety net programs. The former means young people are pretty much banned from working, the latter means people stay between jobs for longer thus increasing the natural rate.
That is not true. The target is to have no unemployment, which means having natural unemployment. That includes people between jobs, etc. and is generally thought to be in the 3-5% area.
Do you think that is a good thing? I mean currently, we chose the best of the candidates first, then run off between them.
No, we choose the most popular candidates. There's typically a pretty strong negative correlation between quality and popularity.
So...things that are not experienced do not exist? I did not realize you had been resurrected Bishop Berkeley!
There were NO APPS!
I guess you've never heard of Symbian, then.
Is it possible to design net neutrality legislation that still allows ISPs to charge each other for peering agreements, as they have always done?
Google Dwarf Fotrress.
Quantity is no substitute for quality, but its the only one we've got.
