This is entirely the problem with codified constitutions, especially if they don't change with the times. What worked hundreds of years ago may not apply now.

What's the point of internships if you don't want to hire any of the possibly useful people? I sort of thought the point was to give experience so that they might be useful in the future. Why spend any effort doing that if you're not going to take the reward of a useful new employee. If you are just using it as a source of free labour, fuck that shit, seriously.

I don't imagine for a second that anyone would take an unpaid internship over a paid one if they were the same in every other respect. Saying that some people want to work for free is missing the point that they shouldn't be allowed to be slaves in the first place.

It wouldn't as the SI unit is the Kilogram, so it really should be the kilo-kilogram which is just stupid (but correct).

So you wouldn't mind if pictures of you being raped were being looked at on the internet? Fair enough, personally I'd have a problem with that and want it to be a crime to look at them, but maybe that's just me, I have been known to be a little odd.

It's on the opposite side from Canada's wang going into America, so I'd say it was a wang. http://imgur.com/gallery/p2mNQ

One of the reasons that is bandied about is that advertising regions do not match up with state borders so differing sales taxes would cause the advertising to be wrong. It does piss me off when nothing in a $1 store is actually $1 though. I'm glad Europe got its shit together to get rid of most of these extra unavoidable fees.

I was just objecting to the use of set of all primes, as you say there is no easy way to construct (or test) primes, however by showing that there must be a prime greater than an arbitrary value you have demonstrated there are an infinite number of primes* without requiring that you know all the primes in the first place.

*(N!+1)! +1 ad infinitum.

The proof in the article is that there exists an infinite subset of the primes where members are separated from at least one other member by less than 70 million. Which is a pretty hard thing to even get close to proving.

This whole proof is much easier if you use factorials as you can always prove there must be a prime bigger than N, as N! + 1 is not divisible by any number less than N. Which sort of gets around this weird way of attacking this problem y'all seem to be using which involves ephemeral 'set of known primes' which is weird in proofs.

Supermarionation

They also counted in base 60 using the knuckles of the fingers of one hand (using the thumb as a marker) and the fingers of the other hand for 5x12 counting system. There are some people who stand by this or the duodecimal system.

Hmm, if you suffered from it you would probably think differently. Trust me.

Except floppy manufacturers, they exist in their own world where there are 1024 Bytes to the KiloByte and 1000 KB to the MB all so they could have a 1.44MB capacity, not 1.41MiB or 1.47MB as logic dictates, because fuck logic.

It's unlikely to cause any probes to crash into Mars so it probably doesn't matter that much.

Fixed cf. Removable. You're actually talking about a fixed focal length, which is a specific thing not mentioned in the name. I appreciate it's not entirely clear but those are the choices.

No we don't do that. Long distance is usually another country so you use the international prefix in whatever country you are in. In the UK it'd be a 00 (of the + on your phone) don't know what it is elsewhere.
