I learned much from Byte Magazine. R.I.P.

Took Computer Programming as freshmen at my high school. The teacher started by talking about the computer, languages, and coding stressing spaghetti code horror stories. We then discussed a sample problem, the flow chart for it, and the code. We then programmed an Apple II. Next we learned the Basic Language. The rest of the class was: pick a problem, flowchart it, write it in pseudo code, program it in Basic, test it, have fun. I wrote a tank program with simple sound and color that hunted down my friend and blew him away for the class project which was the majority of the grade.

The Commerce Clause was originally intended to not allow a state to put up barriers to trade with another state. Now it is interpreted as the exact opposite.

As Thomas Jefferson said, to paraphrase: "You can choose to tax capital, income, or sales; but if you tax all three you will kill the economy."

The Supreme Court already decided that mail order companies do not have to collect state sales tax if the company does not have a physical presence in the customer's state. So how does ordering online via web browser differ much logically from ordering from a mail order catalog and using the 800 phone #? A bankrupt state will tax anything that moves. The vendor already pays property tax and profit tax. The consumer is paying property tax and other taxes that already cover utility for road use and such.

Physics dictates that as weight increases mpg decreases. So BO is granting manufacturers and the EPA to lie in order to make the stat goal. Sounds like Full Employment Budgeting B.S.

The job market is good too! Endemic psychopathic lying.

John, have you speculated on why Psychopathy is so widespread today and why psychos are so controlling of creativity? Creative persons can spot a psycho a mile away so I would think psychos would not confront the creative types. -- Yadda

Why was FB not flagged for doing the same? These companies are valued on registered users that were inflated by this fraudulent marketing. How many of these users are regular users? 40%? LinkedIn P/E is 916 and FB's is 1,712. Can you say crash?

Just wait until The Great Default comes. Colleges will experience severe pain as persons deem it obvious that there are more important pursuits like protecting what one owns and doing real work to create value. F the FED!!!

Didn't the writer realize colleges had been bought off by Wall Street too? Just look at how much is invested in sports and college playoffs. These institutions are no longer useful to our society.

This is b.s. An Italian doctor traveled for years documenting how all animals, not just mammals but birds and insects, try to alter their consciousness with "booze". He wrote a book titled "Animals and Psychedelics: The Natural World and the Instinct to Alter Consciousness".

HP destroyed EDS, Compaq, and DEC, and webOS.

James Chanos http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Chanos shorted Autonomy before HP bought it. When HP overpaid, he had to cover short, but made good when he shorted HP. Maybe HP should have consulted with him before the purchase as he sells his research. Chanos is the one who shorted Enron and Worldcom.
