Germany stll pays Israel.
Germany "kinda" paid USSR that took most factories it came by.
Germany actually also paid Greece a while ago, although the scale of the payment was nowhere near what current government wants (and even (nominally) much less than they took from Greek bank)

German reparations for World War II/

I missed how you jumped from parents influencing kids choices, to 50/50 parity being the natural thing, if not discriminated.

There are contrary examples of separated twins in different families which you would not like.

You forgot to elaborate how on earth was this about "access to professions regardless of gender".
The idea that gender disparity can only be caused by some sort of discrimination is based pretty much on religious views and have nothing to do with science.

Men and women are different and TEND TO choose different professions. .

I've actually used demo version of the Oculus Rift.
Also, many of colleagues did.
The things will cause sickness to many, no matter the FPS.

Sony's devs also mentioned it, by the way.
One thing is getting rid of sickness caused by rendering glitches, you could fix that.
But there is inherent sickness caused by your eyes seeing what your vestibular system does not experience.

Bottom line:

1) an obvious example of diminishing returns on modern GPUs, also, go check Dark Sorcerer demo on PS4 (PS4 GPU is roughly between AMD 7850 and AMD 7870)

2) somebody managed to bake yet another article about AMD product, without mentioning AMD

Now you can basically officially do your own pre-compilation (check -processor option on javac) if you so wish.

Tons of XML weren't really caused by Java's problems (do you actually remember what was put in them??), more of a fashion thing, now mostly replaced with annotations / cleverly chosen defaults.

Most stuff you were doing with monstrous (my personal opinion) frameworks like Spring are part of the standard Java for quite a while (since 2009).

Did that have positive impact on sales of the corresponding content?
Because if not...

Over nearly 2 decades I work in IT, in most teams I worked with SOME of the guys could do more than 3-5 others together.
Also it had little to do with experience, some guys were just damn good, right out of the university.

I've also seen plenty of very experienced, yet very poor coders.

So no, not just skills you can just learn.

Parent post deserves more than 1 point.

Poker games take time (hours), people grow tired, computers don't.
People struggle at memorizing chances, taking shortcuts, computers have exact picture talking into account every single bit.

All one needs is behavior that is random enough, for human players not to guess if computer is bluffing.

Then, of course, there is luck factor, so results will fluctuate quite a bit.

BS.
There is a huge difference between men and women in general.
The article you've linked merely covers intelligence (which is only PART of what people are).
And even there you have missed an elephant in the room:

"...The differences in average IQ between men and women are small in magnitude and inconsistent in direction, although the variability of male scores has been found to be greater than that of females, resulting in more males than females in the top and bottom of the IQ distribution..."

and I don't quite get why did you even link that:

"...There are however differences in the capacity of males and females in performing certain tasks, such as rotation of object in space, often categorized as spatial ability. Other traditionally male advantages, such as in the field of mathematics, are not so clear-cut..."

Yay, we are not different... Somehow...

Are you kiddinig me?
Intel was overselling AMD with slower, pricier, power hungry chips 4 to 1.
Compaq refused to take AMDs chips FOR FREE.

R&D, my ass...

I missed how does M$ "being even more evil" somehow justify Google's evilness?

Mr Jobs threatened Palm with "patent litigation" if they would not submit to non-poaching agreement. Hello.

Uh, no, McDonald's had NOT "served coffee at a temperature above their own published standards".
It was within their (and national coffee association's),standards and in fact McDonalds continues to serve coffee at 80–90 C (176–194 F).
Coffee served to Liebeck was within 80–190 F (82–88 C).
