Remarkable the extent to which economists agree with you and to which politicians disagree. Gee, I wonder who's right?

Most notably, in the last bailout plan, the IMF called for growth in the Greek GDP to top 4% within a few years, and that's what would allow them to pay back the debt. So, in a very short time, while constrained by harsh austerity measures and with no ability to use govt funds to stimulate any job growth, Greece was supposed to leap from the bottom of the EU to the top in terms of growth. Yeah, right, pure fantasy--devised to soothe the lenders that somehow, some way, their investments in Greek loans are not a lost cause and that they will soon profit from them, if only Greece will get its act together and mumble mumble mumble something.

The underpants gnomes had a better business plan ;-)

Remember this movie? The same kind of crock of shit. I actually had friends who were shocked that I refused to watch it; apparently I was close-minded for deciding beforehand (based on reviews) that it was worthless. Just as you and I are close-minded for refusing to consider the possibility that the author of that tripe you quoted might be on to something real ;-)

You measure the residual quantum vibrations left behind in A, duh ;-)

Yes, and in this day and age, I really think homeopathy should be taught in in a class like that. But from the viewpoint you describe, so as to demonstrate that it is pure bunk.

Ahem, look particularly at column 4, fatalities per 100,000,000 vehicle miles traveled.

Aren't you comparing street prices to list?

How the hell did I miss that??? I'm constantly watching for bigger drives for my laptop, because I actually need 2TB these days, and the only one I'd seen previously was 12mm.

There are a lot of laptops these days that only take a 7mm, but not mine, so I'm happy now.

It's the first time that max SSD capacity is greater than HD in a given size.

Yes, I know there's a 2.5" 2TB HDD out there. But it's a 12mm height, and so cannot be used in any laptop that I know of, including my older thicker MacBook, which takes a 9.5mm height drive.

This Samsung is a 7mm height, and thus will fit in any laptop that takes a 2.5" drive of any kind.

Sure. Find them, track down their info, hire a lawyer, invest months of your life. I'm not saying don't do it, I'm just saying it's usually a lot of work for a smallish payoff. It's very unusual that one company with a traceable location and actual ability to pay makes 100+ calls to the same person.

Reduced profits. The theory is that in a competitive market, a company's ability to pass that kind of cost to their customers is limited by competition.

Haha.

You do realize that hospitals, just for one example, are businesses?

1) Of course they're going for drama, thus will focus on and magnify anything they can find that makes Jobs look "mercurial".

2) Is it true, what I read a couple of weeks ago, that in the movie the team that built the Mac is depicted as 8 men? If that is actually the case, the director and producer should dragged onto the back lot and shot. The team that built the Mac was 8 men and 4 women. Why on earth would they, in the year 2015, write the women out of the story???

Yep. See second paragraph.

Are you kidding me? No, it is most certainly NOT the first severe accident with industrial robots. Seriously, thousands and thousands of factories using them, why in the hell would anybody think for a second that accidents had never before happened??? I guess the submitter is so sheltered that he has no clue at all about what it is like to do physical labor in a place that makes actual things!

To the extent that I want to bookmark this, just for reference as to the tools he used ;-
