By that standard it should be a Steve Wozniak stamp.
"All religions"?!
It makes sense to study what drives the inhabitants of this planet, which is often their religion.
Maybe not quite as bad as the Therac but definitely should be taught in engineering school.

That criterion will eliminate a lot of confusing choice from your purchasing decisions.
Or "The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on
Heh, I love it when deniers mindlessly repeat that quote. You don't even know what it means, do you? Because if you did, you certainly wouldn't be mentioning it.
You see, we measure how much energy the Sun outputs. And we measure how much the Earth reflects of that energy (its albedo). We also measure how much it radiates, which - if the Earth was at a stable temperature - would be the same as the difference between the first two. Understand so far? That's what the "CERES data" refers to.
What Trenberth is saying is that the CERES data shows there should be far *more* warming than we're actually measuring! When you take into account air temperature increase, melting ice, sea temperature increase, etc etc it *still* leaves a big chunk of energy to account for. Now, any sane person would therefore assume that the energy can't just vanish: it's got to go somewhere that we aren't measuring.
Not the deniers, they think it's all being whisked away by the natural cycle fairies. Or perhaps they just don't understand what it is they're saying and are mindlessly repeating what they read on some blog. Hey, maybe you can tell us. Which is it?
Even out of a high-gain antenna radio waves spread enough to lower EIRP a lot compared to a laser.
Adam Smith himself wrote about the need to put legal limits on unethical business practices.
Do read up on what happens to girls who are fascinated by CS studies and work hard at them. I've posted links in the past.
A lack of women and minorities in a field means the talent pool isn't as large as it could be. I like working with good people. You're more likely to find good people if you have more candidates to choose among.

An arrest is supposed to mean an officer had probable cause. In practice it means nothing whatever.
Requiring judicial review preserves a little privacy for victims of DWB and harassment arrests.
That insurance company's squad of auditors would be no more and no less effective than the PCI/DSS audit system.
>I don't believe that there are any negative influences early on dissuading women from working tech.
There are, documented in the stories of hundreds of women in computer science at CMU. It starts in childhood and continues all through school, only to be followed by people at a job fair saying "we're not looking for anyone in marketing" as a software developer hands over her resume.
See the book "Unlocking the Clubhouse".
The CMU students were really bright and highly motivated. Anything pushing out people like that needs to be fixed!
Exactly. If an insurance company is willing to stand behind the vehicle's operation, then any potential accident victims will be compensated.
Self-driving cars may even be a better bet for the insurance companies than selling policies for human-operated cars.
If he found the situation even more difficult than usual, that's news.
Anyone who cares about getting this right must read "Brain Storm: The Flaws in the Science of Sex Differences " by Rebecca Jordan-Young.
Bottom line: most of the research sucks rocks.
The more carefully you look, the more it looks like overlapping bell curves and not dimorphism.
