Yes, but they probably weren't expecting you to be the only person to answer the poll.

Well, if you accept as axioms things which have no support in fact or evidence, then sure, you can prove whatever you want. But why even bother with the pretense of proof if you take that route?

Or, for a starting point, try here: http://www.forbes.com/sites/louiswoodhill/2013/03/28/the-mystery-of-income-inequality-broken-down-to-one-simple-chart/

Of course, why didn't I see it. I'd be much better off living in a place with a high rate of poverty than a place with a low rate of poverty.

This assumes, of course, that I'm not one of the people actually living in poverty. Which, if I'm living in a place with a higher rate of poverty, I'm more likely to be.

This is the most mind opening piece of logic I've ever heard. It's like learning that all men are Socrates all over again!

If you are looking for empirical evidence, maybe instead of looking at the wish lists of Presidents, you might want to look at what was actually implemented by the congress at the same time.

Or look at it the other way around. Overlay the blue state/red state voting patterns. Now tell me which party's economic policies lead to more favorable outcomes.

That... doesn't help. What the hell is compute capacity?? How much compute the cloud instance can do?

Ok, dropping the pretense of being dense, I can see what the intended meaning probably is. But how much harder is it to say computing capacity, or computational capacity, or any other way of saying it that doesn't make the speaker sound like a douche.

If it can't be done without violating people's rights, then don't do it. It's really that simple.

So, I can cancel that Symantec AV upgrade we had pending? That'll save us some time and money. Sucks to be you, Symantec.

(I've had two different users in two different locations get the same virus in the past week. I'm pretty sure neither of them installed anything "intentionally".)

I have multiple users (service providers) who need access to various New York State Office of Mental Health websites. I have had to downgrade most of them Internet Explorer 9. There are a few sites that will work in 10, but almost none which will work in 11.

You are missing the point. Even if what you are saying is true (which it largely is), this does not prevent the range of variance within genders from being greater than the range of variance between genders. You are talking about the meaty part of the bell curve, the parent is talking about the tails. But the fact that some people will naturally fall on the tails of the curve means that you can't use their gender to predict anything else about them (in this case, which way their brain is mostly wired).

You are right, though. Wishing for science to reinforce your prejudices has a huge failure rate.

Grub2 is nice and beautiful when it works. Which it does, most of the time. But when it breaks or you want to do something non standard, it requires a much much higher level of expertise than GRUB did. GRUB was edit a text file. GRUB2 is secret hidden handshake which seems to be illegal to write documentation for.

This kind of thing is becoming standard practice in modern software, unfortunately. Firefox used to export bookmarks in an HTML file, which even the most casual nerd could edit (maybe I only want part of it, or I want to add to it... whatever). Then it became a JSON file or something, which I guess makes it easier for developers to write tools for?

We keep getting software that makes life easier for the developers and harder for the end user. This is only a good thing if you are trying to get rid of end users.

This is why I hate buying meat at typical US supermarkets. There are a couple of Latin American (one is Salvadoran, the other ?) grocery stores not far from me which have actual butchers in the store and the meat is always nice and fresh. The prices are also better than the sale price at any chain store. There are a few cuts of meat I don't recognize, but they have everything I want.

The tomato sauce I buy at Aldi's has no corn syrup listed on the label. It isn't the best jarred sauce I've ever had, but I'm going to doctor it up anyway, and you can't beat the price. I'm glad they have finally migrated to the US too.

Do they also provide catering?

And who will provide this valuable service to me when I want to protest against the Park Service?

So, based on the wording of the advisory, if I am using Office 2010 running on Windows 7, I am both affected and non-affected. How exactly does that work?
