It's not like there is a shortage of places to drill for shale oil. Russia is definitely, without a doubt or a question, the villain here. Russia is not a state sponsor of terrorism. Russia today is a terrorist state.
As opposed to the United States which never sponsors terrorists or bombs civil...
OH WAIT
That said if you have a lawn and your shower/bath water doesn't provide the primary water to the landscaping, you are part of the problem too.
If you still believe in the concept of lawns you are part of the problem.
At what point did people start thinking that spending resources planting and maintaining a monoculture of sterile inedible grass was a good idea? Did golf players do this to us? The same area and resources could be used for everyone to have fresh vegetables growing around thier homes except:
1) homeowners associations and baby boomers would throw a fit
2) Americans don't eat vegetables anyway
There is an old Republican tactic where you run someone that seems more moderate as President to capture the swing voters but then you run an attack dog as Vice President to appeal to the extremists in your party and keep them voting.
Politics is theatre remember.
Want change unionise and kill the H-1Bs.
I like the way you think but killing migrant workers is still illegal in my state.
"I have a guy who’s writing fan fiction starring me and him. It’s a pornographic fanfic, and he's on chapter 6. He anonymously submits chapters through my website"
That's hardly unique to women. Richard Stallman once replied to someone who anonymously submitted a pornographic fanfic involving himself and Stallman. The reply was rather thorough in describing how unrealistic the fictional situation was. I'd look for the full text but I'm at work.
Pretty sure Time Warner is great at making "information unavailable or less available".
You should throttle your connection to them.
Wait...
well, most likely the computers werent being used for anything else at the time. he was probably only running it in spare time.
Using close to 100% of processing resources would definitely increase overall power consumption for the computers in question. This would result in increased overall cost of operation.
And yet still less wasteful of money and resources than the vast majority of university administrators.
Wouldn't a simpler idea be that human tribes generally developed boats before agriculture? I mean there are plenty of hunter gatherer societies that have boats but don't have agriculture. And I'm pretty sure it's easier to build a raft than it is to breed plants suitable to repeated cultivation.
I've personally sat through a case where a bystander's filming was manipulated and only pieces of it brought to court. Without the full context, the film was a lie. That sent a good police officer to prison. The laws are far behind these double edged swords... whatever happened to "the full truth"?
I'm also skeptical of your story without a source. Cops shoot innocent people and at worst get administrative leave, it's rare that dirty cops get sent to prison much less a "good police officer".

If the bystander had the full tape then manipulating it is evidence tampering and laws already exist to deal with this.
Although I am not familiar with the particular case I'm skeptical that a 'good police officer' exists and if that officer had ever done the common police tactic of deleting inconvenient police car video recorder evidence then prison seems poetic justice.
I do (I am the person you are replying to), I have a 2 year old and another on the way. Yes I know my children may not find programming computers to be interesting.. but it is a geek father's hope isn't it?
I think deep down we all want our kids to end up being geeks.
Thats because the other type of liberal arts students work in advertising.
I'm not sure which one I like less.
How were the mice sleep deprived?
Stress has been linked to poor memory for decades. Was it that stress has caused poor sleep quality and poor memory, or is it that sleep deprivation stressed the mice which caused poor memory, or both?
There's no way most CS PhD students could go on to be professors. Most professors advise many PhD students, so the number of CS professors would have to double every few decades if that were the case. Most CS PhD students move on to do research in industry: Microsoft, Google, and so on. I just got my masters degree in CS, and I actually do know where the PhDs go -- overwhelmingly to the west coast to work in industry.
I guess it's unfortunate for humanities students that there is not substantial industry that requires their abilities.
It brings up a troubling question, in this day and age of our surveillance state intelligence angencies - who'd want to sign their name on that list, which would obviously be passed over to the "watchers" as "potential troublemakers".
I thought of that myself, 2 points:
1) Anyone who would sign it is probably already on some sort of list
and
2) If we're to the point where that is a legitimate concern then it's even more important to do so.
Real Programmers don't eat quiche. They eat Twinkies and Szechwan food.
