That's not entirely correct. Most people will still charge at home during the night. Super-fast charging is probably going to be used only for long-distance travel.

Go and buy yourself a Chevy Volt - it can use carpool lanes. Ditto for plugin Priuses and Fords. They are only about $8k more than similar pure-gas cars.

Why would you care about reliability for continuous integration?

We use Amazon EC2 with spot nodes for our CI. After all, if a node dies - you can just restart the whole process on a new one. Sure, you'll lose some time, but given that 32CPU node with 64Gb of RAM can be bought for $0.3 per hour - we simply don't care.

No, the comparison is done by dry weight of both pre-cooked and post-cooked food. The main advantage seems to be the lesser need for proteolytic enzymes (protein synthesis is expensive!) and de-polymerization of starches.

Yes, that's about right. Only Democrats in the US care about poor people. Republicans care only about wealthy 'job creators'.

Why must they live in the richest Congressional districts? A Congress district is a large place, and even one very rich man won't raise the average (never mind median) income by much.

For some reason I've lost the previous message. These districts represent high self-made middle class - not the uber-rich people. And high middle class is indeed more Democratic-leaning, because they generally understand that government help is necessary to make poor people lives bearable and give poor children a chance.

Here's a link from your site: https://www.opensecrets.org/ne... It's obviously not possible to say with 100% assurance about the voting patterns of rich, but their Republican leaning is not a secret. Here are some data points: http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.n...

Nutrients are not really destroyed by cooking (unless we're talking about some extreme cooking methods). Some vitamins are destroyed and that's why you should eat at least some raw vegetables and greens, but general nutrients remain untouched by cooking.

A few years ago I read a financial magazine on an airplane (quick googling tells that it was WSJ, I can't find a direct link but this blog post describes it: http://blog.rongarret.info/201... ) about how companies should watch their stock options closely and do not allow 'unnecessary' employees like chefs to get them. Because if a company grows big then these peons might actually become members of the Rich! And little people totally do not deserve it.

I wanted to break a window and throw this magazine out.

That may be true, but it's still misleading. $75k per capita is high middle class, and if it's California then it's probably a self-made middle class rather than inherited. Such people usually understand that help from the government is sometimes necessary to make poor peoples' lives at least bearable and to give their children a chance of success.

We're talking about uber-rich rich, the ones that have hundreds of millions in the bank - THEY are mostly Republican.

Well, yes. Both are true. If you eat raw food then you'll most likely be losing weight, as it's very hard to get enough calories from raw food to sustain overweight. So if your aim is to lose excessive weight then avoiding cooked foods is probably a good ides.

If you're thinking from a perspective of a shipwreck victim stuck on an island then cooking food (especially meat or starchy food) is a very good idea, because you'll need much less of it.

Not really. Cooking adds 10-20% to actual caloric content of food. Mainly because it breaks down complex molecules, making them easier to digest.

By that time it was a slur, as was the word "moskal'". I know perfectly well that Slavic languages are different - I can speak a bit of Czech and I understand Polish. BTW, the word for 'friend who is a girl' in Czech also sounds like 'farty' for Russian speakers.

As for the letter - _read_ it carefully. It lists examples of his enemies, it doesn't say to kill all the Jews who are also USSR collaborators. No, it says that ALL Jews are enemies. In the first chapter it says (transliteration first then my translation):

Menshineva poltika. 16. Naconal'n menshini podljajut'sja na: ... b) vorozh nam, moskal, poljaki, zhidi. .... b) Vinishhuvannja v borot'b, zokrema tih, shho boronitimut' rezhmu: pereseljuvannja v h zeml, vinishhuvati golovno ntelgencju, jako ne vl'no dopuskati do njakih urjadv, vzagal unemozhlivljumo produkuvannja ntelgenc, sebto dostup do shkl t.d. Napriklad, tak zvanih pol's'kih seljan treba asimljuvati, usvdomljujuchi z mscja m, tim bl'she v cej garjachij, povnij fanatizmu chas, shho voni ukranc tl'ki latins'kogo obrjadu nasil'no asiml'ovan.

Koli b bula nepoborna potreba ostaviti, primrom, v gospodars'km aparat zhida, postaviti jomu nashogo mlcjanta nad golovoju lkvduvati za najmensh provini. Kervniki poodinokih galuzej zhittja mozhut' buti lishe ukranc, a ne chuzhin – vorogi. Asimljacja zhidv vikljuchat'sja.

Translation:

Minority policy 16. National minorities are classified as: ... b) our enemies, Russians, Poles, Jews ... b) Extermination, especially the ones who will protect the old regime: move into their lands, exterminate their intellectuals which shouldn't be given access to government, and we should even make it impossible the reproduction of intellectuals by not giving access to schools, etc. For example, so called Polish peasants should be assimilated, understanding that they are Ukrainians of Latin persuasion, being forcibly assimilated. Their leaders should be exterminated. Jews should be isolated, expelled from any government positions to prevent sabotage. If there's no pressing need for a Jew's services, for example, in a local enterprise, put our militiaman over his head and exterminate for any smallest misconduct. Jews can't be assimilated at all.

(ugh, I have to go and wash my hands after typing this)

No, no. Of course, Bandera wasn't a nationalist and anti-semite. No, siree.

And my point is that Bandera knew perfectly well about German atrocities - and still sided with them. He knew for sure about German policies towards Jews and Poles and cheerfully supported them. In a few cases German troops had to _stop_ OUN from massacring too much population!

And you might notice that I'm not saying anywhere that NKVD and Stalin's regime were nice. But Russians don't make national heroes out of Katyn's executioners! And I think if it ever happens, then Russia should be invaded ASAP.

No, this is a _direct_ _translation_, it's not an interpretation. And yes, I speak Russian and Ukrainian.

And by saying that Bandera was not an antisemite you simply show a total ignorance. Here's his program document: http://ru.scribd.com/doc/17903... in Ukrainian. It clearly says: "[racial slur for Jews] are an alien as individuals and as a group" (on the page 129 of this document). He certainly knew about the "Massacre of Professors" in Lviv, about Volyn' massacre and so on - he orchestrated them.
