I'm all for the forth amendment and all, but having a camera pointed to the outside of his house is no different than having a cop sitting outside the house in a car.
Your Comment Subject is correct, but only if it's referring to your comment. There are huge differences. Six weeks of 24/7 undercover surveillance for a petty drug dealer. That would be the equivalence you're drawing.
DST or the people who constantly whine about it.
They may constantly complain, but they only go berserk twice a year.
And if patient "0" hadn't made it to our shores at all...these two people wouldn't now be ill and in jeopardy.
Actually patient "0" is reported to have been a two year old child in the town of Guéckédou in Guinea.
Thomas Duncan's patient number was likely between 4,000 and 12,000.
If the international system had taken the issue seriously when Guinea announced 59 dead (March 22) instead of August, Thomas Duncan wouldn't have been a patient. Calling him patient "0" makes false assumptions about the Atlantic or Mediterranean, i.e., that they afford us some sort of protection rather than just delaying the inevitable.
My personal opinion is that this won't be an extermination event, but I don't expect to see civilization as we know it in 5 years. I hope the vaccine makers and distributers are successful and that my expectations are not met.
I'm just inordinately thrilled to be able to use the phrase correctly for once. Really grinds my gears when people say it instead of saying "forces me to ask the question" or something similar.
Where are my mod points when I need them? Somebody mod this parent up!
He and I have the same gear grinders.
I'd say the aerospace industry is dealing with it a lot better than the software industry. Perhaps we should get held up to the same standards, maybe then we could earn the title of "(Software) Engineer".
The problem is that there are subsystems on a aircraft can be transparently seen to be critical or non-critical. A loose latch on door to the garbage bin in the galley is not likely to take the entire plane down.
The same can't be said of a computer system. Any program that breaks security breaks it for the entire system.
Legalizing weed would take some money/power away from cartels which is always a good thing.
Sure. But it would also take money/power from the police, police unions, prison guards unions, etc.
I perceive that you are paraphrasing the parent.
2003 called, they want your Microsoft back.
If only we could.

Heh.
REAL REASON ==> HS girls don't want to take a class filled with Slashdot types.
REAL REASON #2 ==> AP Computer Science classes are mostly offered in the wealthy suburbs where few minorities live.
REAL REASON #3 Very few high schools in the US offer AP classes in CS. My high school only had AP classes in English, History, and Mathematics. In fact, no school in my entire state offered AP classes in CS when I was a student.
REAL REASON #3a It's difficult to fund and find competent teachers for AP classes in CS. The old saw "Those who can't do teach" is pertinent here. The intersection of "those who can do CS" and "those willing to take a salary cut to a teacher's salary" and "those willing to put up with the BS that a high school teacher does" is not quite the empty set, but must be pretty close.
I've always^H^H^H^H^H^H often been told to ignore people that talk in absolutes. I have quite a few problems with Windows 7. Most of them are fixable, but it's a pain in the ass. Also, someone at MS keeps resetting my registry settings that turn off libraries because they feel like forcing it down my throat on OS Updates for some reason.
Fixed that for you. -- Now people can pay attention to your post.
That disease everybody was so panicked over because you had only a 97% chance of survival.
You also have to ask what permanent damage is done to the survivors.
If the Belize police really thought McAfee was behind the murder they would request extradition, no?
They want him for questioning not for murder. Not answering questions is not an extraditable offence (unless your last name is Assange)
Laws, like sausages, cease to inspire respect in proportion as we know how they are made.

That's right. It's always better to know where you are going in life
I'd really like to know where and how to get GPS instructions on "where you are going in life"
