While I suppose it's possible, I find it highly unlikely that any planet forming in the environment of a supermassive black hole (amounts of radiation we can't even really fathom) would be anything but sterile.
Just imagine a giant fly with a T-Rex head 8-0
I believe the reference is to union leaders, not managers. In most cases managers are not union members.
I read recently that the half life of DNA is a few hundred years. No matter how many flies trapped in amber we find, we will never be able to recover enough dinosaur DNA to make Jurassic Park happen.
Not to mention that making a dinosaur out of fly DNA would be quite a feat in itself
I started out coding, then went into systems engineering, mostly server farms and LAN/WAN design, in my mid/late 20s. Then around age 30 I did go into management, operations and projects, for a number of years. Now, in my late 40s I am a senior network security engineer for a consulting firm. I make the same money I made in management (quite a bit) and have a lot more fun. You certainly can stay in or move back into technical roles past the age of 35.
That sucks, because I listen to neither and thought it was mine.
Don't game in the living room. That's for family time anyways. Put it in another room. If you don't have the space then that's a problem, but work towards a larger home with your own space. It's important to the health of a marriage that you each have your own space anyways.
Demoblicans would be a great name for the bad guys in an 80s video game. "Commander Keen versus the Demoblicans!" just sounds right.
I prefer to refer to the de facto one party system we have as being run by Demoncrats.
Diabetic here. I don't exactly follow a ketonic diet but I eat very few carbs. I was amazed when doctors recommended 60 grams of carbs per meal. I do eat some carbs but about a third of that, and since I adopted that practice my need for insulin has dropped dramatically. I still need it, since my body produces little to none, but my blood panels now come back looking better than most non-diabetics. I eat a lot of protein and fat, and most of my carbs come from fruit and vegetables rather than processed grains.
There are price fixing laws for a reason. Apple IS guilty. No matter how hard you and the other cult worshipers try to spin it as apple is the victim.
This. The GP post is spoken like a true fanboi. Apple can do no wrong in their eyes.
There is ample observational evidence of dark matter in the form of its gravitational effects. We just don't know what it is. It could be 'ordinary' baryonic matter or something entirely new. It isn't a matter of faith. Pun intended.
Right, because the handful of crappy games on Steam for Linux are sufficient for those of us who enjoy gaming, and Macs aren't overpriced shiny crap.
Don't get me wrong. I use Linux to do much of my actual work, but Windows is still the best option for a gaming environment.
You do know that OS X has been certified as a Unix operating system, right?
If you're speaking specifically about me, I do not use public WiFi for that very reason. That's what my 4G portable hot spot is for.
Today is a good day for information-gathering. Read someone else's mail file.
