Question is if german policy of dropping nuclear energy and going all green does help or not? Then you should pick appropriate metric and minimize noise.

You added lot of irrelevant noise to get result you want.
In 1990-2007 germany with its sensible policies was leader in reducing CO2 emissions. In 2007-2012 it decided to drop nuke plants and other states fared better.
When you combine these two you get that germany was good but that is despite its later policy as other states did not in 7 years to catched lead it made in previous 17 years. If it continued policy of previous 17 years you would get bigger decrease of emissions. BTW you link show 'Invalid session: xtDataset is null.', proof by inacessibility?

[quote] [quote] [qoute] well, nuclear power is one option, but there are ... less dangerous ones. Take a mix of solar, wind, water power (not just dammed rivers and such, also tidal). [/quote] That does not work yet, take Germany as counterexample. With its green energy policy it in 2013 managed in to increase its CO2 emissions while most of europe decreased its emissions, only Denmark, Estonia, Portugal have bigger increase. http://phys.org/news/2014-05-g... [/quote] Of course that is ignoring that in 2013 Germany still emitted less CO2 than any year up to 2008 (for several decades) - when all NPPs still were running at full power. [/quote] Which is again misleading as emissions decreased everywhere in developed world. That drop could be explained by better insulation and other improvements in efficiency.
If you compare germany with rest of europe then between 2007 and 2012 germany dropped just by 3% while EU average is 12% drop and even USA dropped more. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/t... Germany does two steps forward, one step back. It could do much better if it had sensible energy policy.

Also electricity become 60% more expensive, GDP fallen and industries are migrating from Germany and will become worse as it will add more renewables. Why do you think it will work elsewhere?

When MITM is possible worrying about self-signed certificates is last of your concerns. Unless you go beyond google proposal and completely disallow http attacker would use zero-day exploit on first http page you load or modify first .exe you download(of course signed by sony.) As now you have keylogger on you computer you do not have to worry how much https protects you.

That is not economic problem its political one. You could add basic income without changing govement wealth redistribution much. You create basic of income equal to subsidies to poor which you cancel. Then you revise tax code and cancel tax deducible items equal to workers basic income. You will get simpler tax system without changing much of citizens taxes/gains. Of course no sane politican will propose it, then he could not promise say increasing dotations to families with children to win three districts. Also with several advancements of robotic and some goverment can create basic income, cancel all taxes and substain stable population indefinitely. He just buys self-repairing factories that makes solar-powered farmerbots, deliverybots and chefbots. Then every citizen could decide to sell what his bot produced or get delivered free food.

Repeating misinformation does it make true. With self-signed certificate you are probably safe from NSA snooping unless it intercepts all connections. When MITM is involved certificates wont save you. Say you typed google.com to address bar. Then determined phiser would modify DNS to say that google.com is http only. A loaded fake http://google.com/ page would contain redirection to https://goog1e.com/ As attacker registered goog1e.com domain and got certificate from startssl.com or other CA that does not bother checking anything besides that you own domain you are owned anyway.

Actually calculating phone numbers is simple, you just need to start from contradiction. You can derive anything from that including your mom's phone number. Its called principle of explosion.

No, you just failed data structure class. Insertion takes O(log(n)) with bookkeeping needed to find mean standard deviation in O(log(n)) time which gives a O(n log n) total time. All you need to know to calculate deviation is sum and number of elements above mean and sum of elements below mean. I explained it in more detail in parent post, there is standard data structure that can calculate sum of elements in of elements in given range in O(log(n)) time and supports insertion in O(log (n)) time.
A quick google query found following implementation: http://kaba.hilvi.org/pastel/pastel/sys/redblacktree.htm

Repeating a lie does not make it true.

Use red-black trees these keep data sorted with O(log(n)) worst case bound for insertion.

That is typical exam question for data structures class. You maintain a red-black tree and for node you keep a sum and count of elements of its subtree (you need to update these in rotation and thats it). As red-black tree has logarithmic height you easily find sum of elements greater than given number in logarithmic time. Just do binary search and sum values for subtrees whose smallest element is greater than searched element.
Once you have that a mean absolute difference by following expression
(sum_greater(mean) - count_greater(mean) * mean) + (count_less(mean) * mean - sum_less(mean))
and you can get each term in O(log (n)) time.

Yes but also useless when you have enough data to get reasonable mean estimate. You do not need Chebyshev inequality for getting confidence intervals, just compute appropriate 2.5percentile and 97.5percentile for 95% interval. By Glivenkoâ"Cantelli theorem these for measurable function converge regardless to distribution and are not sensitive to outliers.

Still incorrect, you need to know data structures for that. When you use a red-black tree where you in node maintain sum of element below node then you can compute sum of elements in arbitrary interval in O(log(n)) time. That cuts complexity from quadratic to O(n log n)

Sorry, we are superconductors. Resistance is futile.

What about following plan.

1. Put $10000 in bank.

2. Wait 30 days, buy $7500 of stock and $2500 for taxes.

3. ???

4. Profit

Yes, (( )) is used in attributes. Also ({ }) is used to convert compound statement into expression. You are left with {{ and {( and when these will be taken we start to use {) (}.

Note as there are 7 bilion people this means that everybody is on slashdot now.
