If we could get back to some Regan-esque conservatism that would be nice. A lot better the the wackos we deal with today anyway...

When I filed my taxes this year, they gave me a free t-shirt when I was done. I feel like I haven't made the best decision.

It is indeed your property, but the network to which you are trying to connect is not. Go ahead and fuck with your own stuff all you want, it's probably the best way to learn and to innovate, but don't fuck up what we already have working.

I think this is relevant here: http://theoatmeal.com/blog/app...

How many times have you bought a coffee? Did you stop and think about whether it would be a good coffee or not?

That's something I'd never really thought about. Especially since you're supposed to be compassionate to get into heaven. I guess for someone who doesn't believe, they're spending eternity without God anyway, since they never thought he existed in the first place. Maybe they get what they think will happen anyway and they just die and stop existing. Those who do believe always had God and always will. Maybe those who don't believe are taken to heaven, but since they won't open their hearts to see they don't think they're really there. You've definitely sparked some deep thought for me, at least.

I've always seen it as just a different way of addressing the same problem. How can you really know what exists outside the universe? It could be God, it could be a programmer, it could be that the universe is an elementary particle in a larger universe. We really have no way to know, and it's doubtful that we'll ever know.

Is that what you think? So, quantum physics isn't science? Statistics aren't science? What about computational fluid dynamics, that produces quite accurate results, but can't account for every situation, so it won't be completely accurate every time.

Science and the idiots who make policies are two completely different things. I'm not sure why you think that social science isn't falsifiable either. Just because you can't make something happen every single time doesn't mean it's completely worthless.

It's for writing code. The monospace font makes it easier to see the indents in your code and make it easier to follow what's going on.

The association with TFA is that people using OpenSSL are an "isolated tribe" who have recently "died" from the heartbleed attack which has exposed a whole load of stuff that was supposed to be secure.

I've read a few of your posts so far. Something that comes across to me is that you seem to be building all your ideas from scratch. I'm not going to tell you that there's no point in doing that, but when you come to basically the same conclusion as the rest of the world came to decades ago, that's a sign that you're not insane, not a sign that you have some revolutionary idea. Everyone goes through stages where they think that the entire world is controlled by people who don't know what they're doing; but by the time they reach your age they're supposed to realise that the reason they're running the world is because they understand it better than you.

If I'm an average person who wants to look better in a bathing suit, I have vastly different diet and exercise requirements that if I were an Olympic athlete. Just as there are separate forums available to "normal" people and those wishing to win Olympic gold, so are there separate forums for the people who want to read the news and check facebook, and the people who want to build their own supercomputer cluster. This is a technical forum, any advice here is given with the assumption that the person asking already has a good chunk of knowledge about how to use computers. It should be implicit that anyone coming to a forum like this is already aware of virus scanner and popup blockers. People come here for the next level.

As to your stab at the "Let's Move" campaign. I hadn't really paid much attention to it up to this point, but there are 5 points, including eating fruit instead of sugary snacks and drinking water instead of sodas, which reduce calorific intake significantly. Also, you can burn off an average PB&J in about 30 minutes of playing, like a kid does most days at recess.

How do you get this shit to the front page Bennet? Serious question: I have a bunch of articles about where bears shit and how wet water is that I want to share with the /. audience.
