Dammit, beat me to it. Further, Haig is dead, which makes him immune to Ebola.

Global climate is changing, but if we stopped emitting CO2 within the next couple decades there's still a chance that the change would be short-lived and once the excess carbon has been absorbed

But the survivors wouldn't really give a shit, and anyway after civilization collapsed they'd go right back to burning wood and coal.

Civilization runs on energy, and stopping all CO2-producing sources would result in the collapse of civilization.

Of course we're 100% rational. We just start from some really dumb axioms, like "the best partner is the one with the biggest boobs and smallest waist".

What actually is the weird obsession with "SJWs" (as a negative?!) on this site?

Social Justice is to justice as People's Democracy is to Democracy.

Saw this story, knew the comments would provide ammo for the SJWs. Way to go, morons.

"Eat shit and live".

STEM as a whole is already at parity at the undergraduate level.

...if you're going into a CS program. This holds in general with AP tests, don't take the ones in your intended major, because you're unlikely to get useful credit for them. This varies from school to school of course, but it's generally true.

Don't take naked pictures of yourself...

Why not? Looking at them is going to hurt you a hell of a lot more than it hurts me.

Randomized trials worked just fine for syphilis.

I agree, but now he's gone too far. The crimes were spying on the American people without warrants. But this sort of interception of information is exactly what the NSA is supposed to do. There has never been any secret about that, and I support it as useful intelligence. If Snowden keeps this up, he's going to alienate his supporters, or at the very least give a lot of ammo to his detractors.

This leak covers NSA actions both domestically and abroad. Expecting Snowden to leak only a pound of flesh and not a drop of blood is quite unreasonable under the circumstances.

Unless you want to use it to check that your 100K resistor is not a 101K resistor.

When analog meters were the standard, you were lucky to get a 5% resistor. 1%ers (as are common today) were exotic.

if we'd drop all the drug-testing requirements. Performance enhancing drugs WORK.

Insignificant jobs for corrupt people to take? You realize that this is an 81 BILLION dollar industry we're talking about here? That's bigger than anything out of Hollywood.

It's telling, in a sad sort of a way, that your one measure of "significance" is money. I guess I should be surprised, but I'm not. Dissapointed yes. Surprised, no.

Now, see, THAT'S trolling. Classic. Bravo, AC.
