Well to answer your answer, yes, societal expectations do change around age 13 to favor more differences between the sexes.

But I can't find where you're getting that information in the articles.

" is a huge leap to extrapolate from anatomical differences to try to explain behavioural variation between the sexes. Also, brain connections are not set and can change throughout life."

So... basically this could be 100% enculturation and there could be zero genetic differences. This is essentially the equivalent of pointing out that people who do a lot of running have strikingly different looking cells in their leg muscles than people who sit on the couch all day. Jumping to the runners being born with different leg muscles might not be the correct answer.

The advanced CLI is for the sysadmin. The WebUI allows you to lock down users to say 1 port on a machine and give them a nice shiny button to click on.

My company builds a replacement (http://uplogix.com), smarter version of a serial console. They can all be managed by web UI and you can term directly into each device, keep configuration on them, and keep each device mapped to its outlet on the power controller. We even have a virtual version that runs on vSphere. You can hook up all the ports via telnet and keep your existing term server, but getting the benefits of the rich CLI and web UI.

Sounds like a perfect use case for you.

This is basically just a paid cops program. Which is not a horrible idea. Paying minimum wage to people who might otherwise be committing crimes doesn't seem like a bad idea.
A private police force it is not, however.

There will always be a market for status. What form that status takes is another thing entirely.

And in the same spirit. Companies really like seeing 30 second movies about themselves on TV regardless of return on investment. Internet Ads are nowhere near as fun as TV ads or magazine ads you can put in a frame.

I might buy that line of reasoning if I couldn't fire up the Facebook website on my phone and tablet and compare the speed with the app.

They're having trouble returning a few hundred lines of text and 10 photos. Methinks HTML rendering speed is not even remotely their problem.

I can't develop on it without Windows. Same beef I have with iPhone (although the iPhone has an installed base to make be bother buying a mac).

Android is easy to develop on using pretty much any OS. This is the same reason that PHP and Java have more mindshare than C# and Visual Basic. Devs can run any OS they want and still get work done.

I thought his "popularity" was due to his anti-war, pro-drug, and pro-racism stances. Although generally not all 3 in the same Paulite.

True. But my hunch is that wouldn't be that much of an increase (although that hunch may be completely wrong), since the routing should be able to optimize so that drive to pick up worker B is a short optimized trip rather than an entire trip back to the suburbs. But even so you'd be adding contra-flow traffic so it shouldn't have that much impact.

I have two kids. We've used a diaper bag. We have two cars and switch it between them. If we need a stroller we put it in the car.

Who said banning human drivers? More likely we'll see the cost of insuring a human go up as people move to automated vehicles. As the insurance pool shrinks the cost will make it something only affordable to elites.

And you would still have the option of buying a private automated car. The potentials of an automated taxi fleet is obviously more exciting for those of us who don't like the expense of a car, then those who do.

And I think we're really getting away from the tax savings. You wouldn't need public transportation. You could just subsidize the service for low income residents. You could reduce the number of lanes on roads. You could eventually remove traffic lights. You wouldn't need police for traffic enforcement (although that one might lead to higher taxes).

A taxi fleet would be refreshed more often and it would be easier to switch out vehicles to use whatever technology is new and cheap. Also a taxi service would be less interested in any of the "features" that make current vehicles so inefficient and would program their vehicles to drive to get the best mileage possible.

My point about the tipping point is that people might be presented with the choice of pay some sum of money to convert their vehicle, or have to buy a new one, and might go with a subscription service instead.
