IIRC they added an essay section worth 800 points. I also believe, sometime in the mid 90's, they made it easier by giving everyone 100 additional points.

Let the system fight itself. Better to just let your kid fill out one of those junk-mail credit card applications, then let them buy apps to their heart's content.

I'd enjoy watching some from the power company dig around 6 kV lines with dowsing.

I don't know, but it's a....joke.

Then I must be pretty good considering I didn't RTFA! I actually read another article last night.

The instant we realize it's all an experiment or simulation, the flip will be switched off.

Yeah, considering I was raised in Virginia, I'm offended at Yank too. South gonna rise again!

How could be unknown if "A study in 2009 ranked him as the 14th most influential physicist in the world for the period 1967-1973.", or was he unknown at the time, which is common for anyone before popular ideas? Unknown in the general public is anyone but Einstein.

Call me when they develop a reliable file system for sd-card flash memory. I have had nothing but trouble with the Pi.

Well hell, if the need H1B for an apprentice (i.e. entry level with low skills), that goes to show the true intent.

Depends on the color of the reasesrch funds, and RA & TA perks such as free tuition. I knew a few stretching out PhD to 10+ years to avoid being sent back home, and one hiding out from INS after graduation due to student visa expiring. Coasting in school is very easy if you are used to spending very little.

Umm, evolution is a science just like physics, as the models based on evolution theory (framework) can be used to predict events. A model predicted an intermediate species existed between two long extinct species, and what timeframe (sedimentary layer) to dig for those. That species was found, exactly as predicted by the model. It also for short term experiments involving bacteria. Anyway, ditch the bible and read some Dawkins.

He said Midwest, which is probably Skyworks.

Ha ha, you are off an order of magnitude, at least for the PNA-X. The one pictured is actually $500k when decked out. That R&S is only $100k. I just picked up an 8566B spectrum analyzer for $2500. I do have an Agilent VNA at home too, just one of the cheaper models.
