What if the second child was born on Tuesday but was not a twin of the Tuesday boy?
Say, the Tuesday 75 weeks later. It's still a Tuesday...

I bet you would freak out if there was snow in California. Hell, the UK was like a bunch of pussies last winter because of about 15 cm of snow (half a foot), using up all of their grit, and Canada gets more than that every winter.
It just depends on what you're used to.
(Disclaimer: I am Canadian.)
It will probably be increases of 10.8%, 8.5% and 6.8% compared to the previous proportion, not the current entire Internet.
So if violence grew by 10.8%, but the previous proportion was 4.4%, you jump to about 4.9%.
The COINS dataset, which is talked about in the summary, was recently published in CSV files (not proprietary), compressed with Zip (not proprietary) and distributed using HTTP (not proprietary) and BitTorrent (not proprietary) at the user's option.
I think that the clearing of private data in Firefox is a bit counter-productive, because deleting from SQLite databases merely marks the rows' storage space as being reclaimable within the file.
I once cleared private data for a day when my places.sqlite was around 70 MiB, then checked the file size and saw that it hadn't even changed by one byte. It wouldn't surprise me if the URLs were still in there -- all of them, intact, until you visit other pages to make Firefox overwrite the reclaimable pages in places.sqlite.
Even if Firefox truncated places.sqlite when the user clicked "delete everything", the URLs would still be readable on the underlying storage device. Firefox would have to shred(1) or zero out the file. I doubt that's going to happen.
Education and money are very much alike in one aspect: if everyone has at least the same amount, then that amount becomes the baseline, below which it is worthless.
College degrees being required for plumbing jobs and the like are only the symptom of this problem.
Whereas before education was made mandatory in most countries of the world, the baseline was no education at all, now the United States have college as a baseline. And it's rather difficult to get out of this, because you ask someone in college why they're in college and they'll say, "I must, because I can't afford to not keep up with my peers." So people go to college because people go to college, and it's a recursive clusterfuck.

This article is very clearly about a hardware patent.
Or even 36D. But personally I'd rather have 36DD. Mmm...
and reuse or recycle the parts.
AT&T rebrands as Compu-Global-Hyper-Mega-Net, hoping to shed its previous reputation as a bad wireless carrier.
My comparison was between the "I'm a" ads, targetted at consumers, and this; it was implied that it was going to be a desktop Linux comparison, not server.
However, you are right.
Windows' insecurity is technical.
... with the damned "I'm a" bullshit? It's getting really old.
I'm a PC! Well I'm a Mac!
And back there you have Linux who is insecure and just has to jump onto the bandwagon.
