Of course, their 12 year old engineers (because they assassinated the other engineers who were too old to be credulous) will clone it easily. Like their nuclear program.

Is there a skill gap in math between gender? I thought it was a gap in the interest in maths. If women have a biologic predisposition towards language, where do you think there interest will go? Not into math. I am really not sure that the fact that women succeeds less in maths to be cultural. It does not mean they fail in maths. I think they are just less likely try, and it is likely to be biological.

I want to see a study that compares interests in maths. Not skills.

After all, women will outperform men in all other academic fields. It can be cool to have very few fields that women do not like so that we can feel kind of useful in the society other than fixing cars, producing semen and opening sealed jars.

I would call the marriage of Sarkozy and Bruni a very successful lobbying operation.

So it means that more than 99.99% succeeded to set up a VPN before the third letter. I see HADOPI is having a big success.

I wish to file a bug report: you count multiple times files with several hard links.

Otherwise you do not get the right amount of ingredients. In Europe, we use grams and sometimes milliliters, and we make better food. Maybe food is a good argument to switch.

In Europe?!? No in Britain perhaps. But I never heard of inches in electronics. It is always in millimeters. See shops like Conrad (German), Elfa (Swedish) or Electronic Diffusion (France) on the web, and you will see everything is in millimeters.

According to James Randi in a recent talk in Trondheim, it is the religious lobbies that push the US not to switch to a system invented by the French. And frankly, I would not see any other reason. Otherwise that would be a total mystery why they do not switch.

Alpha males in IT?

What about Expert Village and Yahoo! Answers?

Derision spotted.

Spotify has a better catalogue than my local stores and the pirate bay. I have been able to listen to albums I was never able to find before(and that I wanted to listen to). And for this reason, I really do not mind not being able to listen to the Pink Floyd.

Printing is less and less important in design. Unless you are doing textile or billboard, I do not think CMYK is a good choice.

No, continue to use MS paint, it rocks!
