Why not just a warning light and/or sound for the driver? Having it directly control the speed is both extra cost and extra risk.

Fat Client = Fat Holes. Fat luck fixing em all.

Is your name T-Rex?

Jupiter and Saturn shall be sentenced to death for deviating from the approved Stellar System Standards, which has resulted in the formation of humans and other pestilences.

but do you expect us to use the US wouldn't use spying for commercial advantage if they had a chance?

Guilty until proven innocent?

These two are exactly the same. Claiming otherwise is just exceptionalism.

Sorry, I don't see it that way. I expect all nations to spy for political and military reasons and I don't blame them for doing it. But the gov't spying for commercial advantage of non-military products is a different issue.

From another perspective, if a nation is caught cheating, they have no right to ask for open-trade status. If a gov't does commercial spying, they forfeit their claim on open-trade. Thus, you can view it as a trade-off choice rather than a "sin".

I'm not talking about spying, but of interfering with commerce.

Amen! The lobbyists and "campaign contributors" slipped in lopsided trade slice by slice starting around the mid 1960's. Polls of citizens consistently showed voters ambivalent about lopsided trade. It's being blindsided in slow motion.

Eat well. Exercise

"Eat, drink, and be merry" is somehow more catchy, though.

Calories generally come from one of these three: carbohydrates, fats/oils, and protein. If one eats less carbs overall, then they have to increase the other two (to feel satiated).

Increasing protein is out for reasons already given. That leaves only fats/oils to increase.

Your calorie "math" seems off.

Please explain why we offer nearly tariff-free trade with such a prick country? They bleep with US entertainment companies, networking companies, search companies, etc. etc.

All simple carbohydrates, chips, white bread, wheat tortillas, fried potatoes are an issue

Hogwash! I used to eat more whole-grains, nuts, and protein, but had to cut back due to kidney stones such that I had to go back to "starchy" foods. My weight changed NONE: still plump.

But again, every body is different. Extrapolation of one experience needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Pun intended.

I did it by eliminating extra sugar.

I cut way down on sugar, and it made absolutely zero difference on my weight. It may have other benefits, but not weight.

Then again, everybody is different. What works for your body may not work for another.

There probably is no magic bullet, other than working your sweaty ass off on a farm or building pyramids (or a machine that simulates such), which is what we are evolved to be doing. The only chubby people used to the royal families, which is like 0.00001% of the population, not enough for evolution to "care" about.

Diets are like software engineering fads: promise a Grand New Way of doing things, but in the end there is no substitute for experience, skill, patience, listening to users, and discipline. "Have you tried the new Node-Jay-Ass diet?"

I would note that the guy who dies at 65 with a Bic Mac in hand appears to be happier than the guy who dies at 82 on a treadmill sweating his bloody ass off.

Not if the asteroid hit between 300 and 600 million years old, and the Permian-Triassic boundary is at 252. The other issue is that people have already looked for signals of impact at the P-Tr boundary- iridium, shocked quartz, spherules like you get with the Chicxulub impact that wiped out the dinosaurs- and found nothing. The leading hypothesis right now is that massive volcanic eruption drove the P-Tr extinction.

The summary does mention JavaScript. And Php still has the problem for equality operators (greater than, equal, etc.). Then again, ColdFusion didn't quite settle equality comparing either.

"No, Sir, I shall not suck your dick."
