I'm all for automating management with decision makers powered by random number generators. It'll be more honest and more likely to come up with the right decision.
You can say that again! Half the decisions of our board are vanity projects, and most of the rest are questionable
servers with different sets of data for users from different countries multiplying across the world.
That will work, because we can all trust our own countries not to have bilateral sharing agreements with the US, and the US not to have illicit access to data stored in other countries. Can't we?
I'm usually getting a 10% better fuel economy than what's stated by the manufacturer.
Maybe the people complaining about the numbers should try driving more efficiently?
Driving style makes a lot of difference, but so does the type of journey. My wife only gets 20 odd mpg - but that's because she always drives with a cold engine (kids to school and an occasional shop). It doesn't matter too much on her 3,000 miles a year anyway but it illustrates the point
That means about 1% of the public thought it was worth commenting on. That's not enough to make a lot of waves unless that 1% is planning to make a lot of campaign donations or something.
Or if they are fucking nutters. This is larger than the percentage of Muslims in the USA but look at all the concessions they get.
Ignorance is not bliss
I didn't want to know that!
If any states residents contracted ebola, Id not be surprised if they were from Texas. We're talking about a state that thinks life begins at conception and rainfall will occur if you just pray for it. Its a wild, magical place where homosexuality can be cured but global warming is a hoax. A fantastic wonderland where Texas legislator Jodie Laubenberg thinks rape kits cause abortions and most residents think the president is a secret kenyan. at the end of the day in texas the miracle of life is no more complex than creation science saddleback rides on dinosaurs.
Lets just hope they don't try and cure it by the "laying on of hands".
... The 'cures' being worked are anti-retrovirals that inhibit the viral replication,.
Your spot on except its plain anti-virals; ebola is not a retrovirus
I guess they think my account "bob disembodied brain" is a real person.
Seems legit to me.
As real as you are!
In general, Britain has an anti-sneak culture, so I doubt many people would literally report their neighbour. It's more likely to be general nosiness.
Plus the urge to check your cars to make sure that they have "got it right".
This is the dumbest thing. You've been able to renew your tax disc online for years now and the site's always been fine. You don't have to replace you're existing paper disc until it expires so I don't understand how they've taken a functional site, added barely any additional load and made it fall over.
I put it down to many sites saying that anyone can check any cars status on the government's vehicle inquiry service (currently down). Loads of people want to check whether their friends and neighbours cars are legal.
If you tell them 100 is the hottest summer day and 0 is the coldest winter one, they'll have a pretty good idea that halfway between, 50, is roughly the average temperature during spring and fall.
I think you would find that given this description most people in the UK would have a totally wrong impression of the scale.
So you think that money is the root of all evil. Have you ever asked what is the root of money? -- Ayn Rand
