I was going to read the article but about a quarter of the way through it just felt like the author copied and pasted in several paragraphs from his paper and other supporting documents and I discovered I am lazy.

FTFY.

This is why I have one folder called "work stuff" where everything I save goes. If it's in the Inbox I probably still need to deal with it in some way; if it's in "work stuff" I may need the info again later, and everything else is in the trash and deleted weekly.

So... does this make me a filer or a searcher?

No, by "current understanding" s/he means current understanding.

Admittedly it's been 20 years but my father is also an amateur pilot. I never flew outside of Ohio with him, but I recall only 1 map in the airplane, and no detailed info for any airport other than what that one map contained.

Dammit, now there's another 'e' for me to highlight.

And they have more side-effects. I have a friend with glaucoma who can't use her scrip for medical marijuana since her husband works in the airline industry. She hates the drops but puts up with it for now. Her data point is that the drops are less effective and have side effects she doesn't want.

So, a porno without the sex? :-)

Once you know to add hahaha, lol, :-) and such wouldn't the deception be better? In some ways this is like detecting fake accents -- you can learn to speak with another accent with practice.

hahaha, dammit, my mod points expired yesterday. You, sir, made me LOL. I assume you're a guy since there's no exclamation points or smileys! :-)

1999 and 2000 there was a small surplus under Clinton, of tens of billions (exactly how much depends on what you count). This surplus carried over into 2001 which was a budget passed in 2000. Before and after that it's red ink.

And vice-versa; Clinton won in 1992 partly due to the (R) vote being split between Bush and Perot. Or, more accurately, more people who would have voted for Bush (or not voted) than people who would have voted for Clinton (or not voted) voted for Perot. Maybe. You see how complicated this is? Without Perot in the 1992 election it's impossible to say what would have happened -- would the Perot voters have stayed home, or voted for Clinton, or Bush? Even a survey at the polling locations couldn't tell for sure.

There have been other elections with "independents" where the vote was split in odd ways, like the 2006 gubernatorial election in Texas, where Rick Perry (the incumbent, on the (R) ticket) was up against Carole Keeton Strayhorn, a (R) who skipped the primaries since she couldn't win them, the (D) candidate Chris Bell, a libertarian candidate, the truly independent and famous (in Texas) Kinky Friedman, and a write-in campaign for someone forgettable. The vote broke down as:

39% Perry (R)
29.8% Bell (D)
18% Strayhon
12.6% Friedman
0.6% Libertarian

Now, whose votes did Kinky Friedman "steal"? And whose did Strayhorn? And what would have happened with an IRV system? And how many elections in the U.S. would be different (in ways good and bad) with an IRV election?

I've noted quite the dynamic tension between my wife any myself when it comes to kids safety. I want them to have fun and I'm not worried about much of anything; she's a worrywort. I suspect this is essentially natural and that where we meet is a good place. But our laws and playgrounds are too much mommy-fear and not enough daddy-fun now.

It's illegal to pay H1B less than other employees and at least for my peers I'd be very surprised if we pay them less. Meanwhile, do you really want to believe that non-Americans can do *better* work than Americans, in the aggregate?

Using Pluto's density of 2.03 g/cm^3, I compute (at 21 mile diameter) the moon is 4.2e16 kg.

With a 4.2e16 kg mass and 1.7e4 m radius, I compute an escape velocity of 18 m/s, or 40 miles per hour.

So I suspect you could jump really hard and not come back down, assuming I didn't misplace a decimal point.

Hiring is the same in the Bay area (so I read), but the cost of living is higher.
