It might be beneficial to claim to not have a lot of knowledge in your head though, since zombies (per common folklore) prefer higher quality brains and therefore acting like an idiot who cant remember a short set of numbers *essential to almost all of math* might be a good survival tactic.

In the case of the "zombie apocalypse" the commonly held belief is that a communicable disease (possibly man-made) turns a normal person into a zombie without them dying first, and is then spread via contact/biting/etc so that a significant part of the population is a zombie. In that scenario zombies are near-dead (at least their cerebral cortex); dead bodies turning into zombies are part of Vodou beliefs and since there arent that many Vodou followers it is not likely that a zombie apocalypse will come to pass as a result of that particular method.

Hahahahahahaha there aren't enough +1s in all of youtube to express how cool that is...

If that's the issue then why wouldn't you (serious question, not asking rhetorically i promise) gin up a Turk quiz about how app markets are perceived and participated in? It seems like you already knew the answer to "does anyone know about all these cool parking spot apps?" so just get on with the bigger question. The one I have spent a lot of time pondering (non-scientifically) is what could an app store possibly offer by having >1,000,000 apps? Or even >500,000 apps?

At some point ( i would guess its somewhere down around the 10,000 mark) there has to be a diminishing return on the quality of the apps in the store, and I absolutely never understood why advertising "our store has a zillion apps! yay us! come buy our shiny! pick from a zillion apps, like you will ever have a chance to try even a tenth of a percent of them!!!" was ever thought of as effective.

instead of make procrastinate, for your next appointment you should try make clean; make depmod; make procrastinate; make install; make clean. Its way more efficient.

Agreed, "Ladies Night" has indeed been found to be illegal in most jurisdictions that have heard serious cases regarding it.

There is a quantifiable distinction between an employer (someone offering compensation in exchange for labor in any number of quid pro quo arrangements), a public accommodation (like public drinking fountains, public schools, etc) and a private group like a yoga studio or country club. This article should clear things up for you: http://blogs.findlaw.com/tarni...

Oops almost forgot:
What you point out is entirely about private property law and not at all about discrimination. Show me a private establishment that allows only one specific gender to access the bathroom without paying while denying the other...

I suppose i should have been more clear, the gender specific participants are not compensated solely for their participation, i.e. being a Boy Scout is not a job in the same way that being a Northwestern football player is (ha! i beat you to that one).

Golf clap.

Nope, its not the doctors dummy, every nurse I saw in the hospital was a _woman_.

Are girls being discriminated against? Where? Says who? They aren't trying to "fix" gender discrimination, they are trying to "fix" lopsided attendance and interest. That being said they are probably still going about it wrong. Their money would go a lot further by simply putting it toward fostering more involved volunteer/nonprofit groups (coder camps geared toward girls, for example.)

Not all jobs and not all applicants are created equal, and that is where the notion that "well every team should be half men and half women" falls apart.

The 3 all important questions to ask at each of those firms are:
Who applied for the position in question
What were their qualifications
Who was ultimately hired

If (taking one of your anecdotes as an example) that when there is a grocery cashier job available, 15 females and 2 males apply, and of them 10 females and 1 male have comparable and sufficient qualifications, then it would not be unusual to see a cashier team made up of 10:1 women to men. This would not be illegal or even unusual in any way. If it were the other way around, that 10 qualified men presented themselves for every 1 qualified female and yet the team was still staffed at 10:1 females to males, then yes you have rather clear-cut (likely illegal) discrimination going on.

Tell that to proprietors (both male and female) who operate "Ladies Night" type promotions on their premises... Its not always cut and dry that it's legal just because employment isn't on the line.

No money changes hands in those examples... The question of legality/discrimination is who benefits, and why. See the colorful history of "Ladies Night" in various states (sadly its not gone to the Supreme Court yet) for a perfect example of how this plays out in court. Discriminating via quid pro quo (unequal pay/compensation/remuneration in this case) is often decided to be illegal.

Its in TFS FFS. The main advantage (aside from being a super fucking cool way to shoot/destroy something and being cheaper to procure per round) is that it requires no explosives to be stored on board the ship. Explosives are a huge risk, especially during combat, since your enemy can sink you with one very lucky hit if things get out of hand below deck.
