Scientology is just one of the many things that should've made you lose faith for the human race. There is a long list of things that should make most people lose faith in humanity. Things like Jersey Shore, for instance.
Easy way to rule out picking someone with the golden immune system of the gods... All employees of the TSA have to go in for a month. And any politicians who voted for approving anything TSA related.
Um... what does the Kindle have to do with iTunes? I know there's a Kindle app you can get from iTunes, but then she'd be loading books on her iDevice and not her Kindle, so that can't be it. iTunes to Kindle isn't a valid comparison in any way.
I've not heard of animals mating with vegetables in normal evolution.
Just make friends with somebody that has HBO and have them set you up with a HBO Go account.
They just don't want to be forced to pay for someone else's.
That's an argument I've never understood anyways. Other people paying for your healthcare is how insurance works to begin with. Do you think your premiums go into your own personal account with the insurance company?
Real programmers don't draw flowcharts. Flowcharts are, after all, the illiterate's form of documentation. Cavemen drew flowcharts; look how much it did for them.
So would you prefer a pre-monsanto world, with 4% the current yields? You benefit, greatly, from their billions of dollars of research and development. Without modern seeds, there would not be enough food to go around.
You say that like it's a bad thing.
Use tax is an attempt to do a runaround of the taxing interstate commerce bit. So no, they don't have a power to tax out-of-state purchases, they just think they do.
This topic seems to be familiar. I've posted before about this type of topic, but this isn't anything groundbreaking. Cars with infotainment systems have had updates for quite some time. The only thing different between their update and updates for my car is they do USB, but for me it's a DVD. Slip the disc in, and let it update the system. This is really stretching the DIY term a bit I think. You're not manually patching any files in, you're just connecting a USB stick and let it go.
Did you read the article? The door was open. You can't clam you can't be confident in a security feature when that feature isn't used.
1. No one will read those emails / status updates, eventually. After reading 3 or 4 updates from the other team and realizing I have no interest in what they're doing, I'll never read another. Even though 4 weeks from now, they're going to get a new project or come across an issue I can offer some help/insight on.
That's really no different than any meetings. If you're standing around, and 90% of the people doing their status updates are in areas you're not involved in, you'll just space out and tune them out. If your team for a project is 3 members, I'd hope you'd be capable of reading 2 emails in a day for status updates. I guess basically what the problem is is that humans just don't scale well.
This may sound like a get off my lawn type post, but from what I've seen it seems that the writing ability of younger people has severely declined. And it's not even that big a difference in age that I'm talking about here, I'm talking about people less than 10 years younger than me. I "abuse" the language a fair amount myself, but I'm talking about seeing people thinking column has a b in it, and despair doesn't have an e. There are fluctuations in the language that I'm used to; such as the color vs. colour thing; but basic spelling problems that would not be correct in any dialect seems to be pretty common. And of course we have the their vs. there problem.
