Comment Re:Why indulge? (Score 0) 449

The US is crazy, arrogant and ill-advised. Thailand belongs to the Thais who are lovely hardworking honest people. Leave them the HELL alone.

Only idiots is a country that is USD 15T in debt and has produced GWB and BHO could be that stupid.

If they want to permit sex differently from you ... MindYourOwnBusness, or better yet try telling the Saudi(s) how to.

Comment Too Old, not Yet Wise (Score 1) 370

These long term treason-ists who have presided over America's decline should all be facing long Jail time or a firing squad, Lieberman at the head of the list.

These people have had decades in the Congress to protect and defend America but with their Liberal BS they did nothing, and they now want people to self censor.

What about the first amendment do these idiots not understand, with the Internet they are afraid, deathly afraid that dissenters will be heard, and they will. We are in the middle of the Internet Reformation, just as when in 1450 Guttenberg started mass printing the Bible, and the authority of the Catholic heirarchy crumbled.

The problem is that the Progressive Left is Pure of Heart, but as thick as two short planks and as the Tea Party wises up more and more ordinary citizens that they are regularly lied to, and stolen from by their own government terrorism will be the last thing they need to worry about. They just need to be attached to a tree or lamp post, with the hemp rope they despise; but In case of Emergency, steel cable or piano wire works too.

Comment BBC Bias (Score 0) 324

In recent years the BBC has fallen far from the Gold Standard, they are now corrupted Green/Crony-Capitalist liers such as you have so many in the US LSM.

On Nuclear/Shale/Climate you can't believe a word they say, and in Germany, Austria, Switzerland the useful-idiots are rapidly backing away from their, post japan, nuclear funk as they discover it is a huge vote looser.

The greens lost hugely for this in Germany.

Shale Oil/Gas, deep water drilling and Salt-Thorium Nuclear is the way to go and will hold Peak-Oil, which like Climate Change, is being rapidly discredited, say for 200-500 years, and if we take back control of Scientific Research funding from our governments and Crony-Capitalis-Lobbyists may get us (a) Fusion, (b) a cure for Cancer, and (c) progress to managing viral disease. If we don't we will be subsistance farmers living in caves again.

We need to get rid of the Lefty, Progressive Markzists and their dumb ideas and get back real scientists and engineers who can design and build. We also need to hold the midia accountable for lying, but I guess the Internet is doing that.

1. Who will register with Nominet after this? it is not like there is a shortage, this is just another MBA empty suite, and hat!

2. If they do this to you sue them at the same time as the Police and CPS.

3. There will be NO examples, as getting an expartite injunction with evidence would take an afternoon, but in the UK you must post a bond for damages

First Madame Lagrande should STFU, she is not American and this is NOT a IMF issue it is a US domestic political one.

Second, she is factually wrong, the market is not a suicide pact.

Third Bhoener is the architypal RINO and the GOP needs to be rid of him as soon as possible, while his sort is in Washington NOTHING will get done.

Comment Programming -v- CS (Score 1) 606

Having taught CS at a British University, a Real one, for 25 years I make these points:

- You can not teach people how to program, to misquote Yoda, They can, or they can NOT, there is NO TEACH.

- 2 to 5 % can program, they teach themselves and it takes 6 monthe to 2 years elapsed, that is because ideas, experience and knowledge take time to mature and set, same in all the creative arts.

- Computer Science is not about programming, it is Applied Mathematics.

- Computer Engineering is, and hardware + software, it is properly a PG engineering discipline.

Comment Bundesrätin Doris Leuthard (Score 2) 470

Bundesrätin Doris Leuthard has no power above and beyond her six colleagues to make this decision, as you might expect this will be a very carefully considered decision and is unlikey to hold, unless other credible energy sources are found. Shale gas is unlikely due tho the Geology.

Hydroelectric, geothermal and new nuclear (Thorium) are in the mix.

The Swiss, unlike the Germans are not known for emotionalism, lack of planning or economic suicide.

The unofficial national motto is "Do it right the first time".
