Comment When will they admit... (Score 3, Informative) 84

This is only a bunch of bad programmers and designers trying to justify their employment. It's like an anorexic girl rearranging the food on her plate to appear that she ate something.

What ever happened to stability?
What ever happened to performance?
What ever happened to usability?

Every one of these "up"grades results in a million more bugs that have to be fixed in the NEXT release. Sad, really.

What's with all this pseudo-FUD against China lately? They aren't going anywhere, and you know it, and I know it. I don't know what your objective is here, but you're trying to paint China in a negative light over and over again. It's as though B-I-Z-X which is essentially owned by the Chinese is trying to distract us and make us think that this administration is anti-China when it is in fact owned by the Chinese...

Perhaps you could be a little more constructive with your comments.

I am curious as to what is going on with the gulf stream right now. Would it be possible to create a mechanism to slow down the stream at a pinch point in the caribbean or perhaps around the North Sea? This could allow for cooler summers and warmer winters in Europe at a time when we need to conserve energy the most.

FDIC isn't insurance. They claim to be, but there is a moral hazard with the banks that they are not on the hook for anything. It is poorly funded and couldn't handle a real banking crisis if a bunch of banks went under. Depositors would be soaked. Regardless, all the money in the system was printed to begin with. If they wanted to cover depositors in a serious crash situation, they would just print more.

But sure, keep on with the ad hominems with the GP rather than addressing his point which is really easy to do.

You already have some cultures that don't distinguish between two colors that are at least linguistically distinct here, but they could differentiate between very subtle differences in the shade of blue (for instance).

That's before you consider tetrachromacy. Some women are born with four types of cones instead of three and therefore can perceive a lot more colors.
