How much more probable is Alien life now?

Apple has in NO way EVER been a technology leader. They have never invented any of the technology that is used in their products, and never will. It was only a matter of time time until they screwed up so completely that they removed themselves from the technology equation completely.

My mind will never grasp the absolute power of stupidity. And stupidity in numbers is even more funny!

I'm surprised no one has made this reference, but I for one am shocked to not see the Skyway!

Seriously. Pre-crime prevention does not work. Nor is it an effective or efficient use of tax-payer dollars. This is simply incompetence in action.

Seriously the press is focusing on VW? Why work so hard? All you have to do is a simple investigation in any U.S. car or motorcycle company and you've got news to last for years.

Seriously. This will be the first published use of the material.

IT jobs are wholesale shipped off shore. Your children will never see a job in the U.S. in I.T. Time to move to another country if you want your children to see any future in IT.

I have some level of expertise in this field. I've been involved with numerous start-ups and IPO's. I can assure you that this is completely and 100% all due to incompetent management. Without any question or doubt.

It's the only thing I can think of to explain something as completely idiotically stupendously STUPID as this. This should be used as the new definition of incompetence in action.

Overpopulation HAS already happened. humans breed at an exponential rate. Have you never even visited California?? You can throw a rock from one house to another everywhere except national parks. That is 158,648 square miles of 40 million people. That's about 4 thousands of a square mile to every person. How is that NOT over populated? They have power and water shortages, how is that NOT overpopulation? Food prices for even the most offensive parts of an animal (offal) have skyrocketed to astronomical proportions. How is that NOT overpopulation?

Now this is disappointing news on a couple of levels. First and foremost is the fact that China (the world leader in population control) has backed off. This is disappointing because it gave credence to communism. It's always important to be able to see the benefits (as well as the detriments) of an alternative political structure. I'm no fan of communism, but at times it has appeared to be capable of getting the hard issues at least addressed. Issues where democracy often fails. Not that democracy is a failure, just that it has it's weaknesses. Blindly following any given political structure is at best idiotic. Knowing and acknowledging the strengths and weaknesses of a political construct is vital to it's very continued existence.

Now on another level, this will only give democracy advocates false fodder for their endless campaigns of back patting. While doing nothing to address the real issues. The primary of which is global warming. An issue of where all of the "scientists" insist is human caused. Whether it is or is not is completely irrelevant. The fact that it is happening is relevant. However the root cause of the situation is obvious. It's not WHAT people are doing that is the cause of the problem. Its HOW MANY people are doing it that IS the problem. So ANY global warming "solution" that does not address global population control will be completely ineffective and ultimately pointless.

This must be horrifyingly maddening for them.

So the government fat cats, got lazy, complacent, and entitled. Failed to compete in the market, and that is supposed to be a bad thing??

I was asked to TRAIN my H1B replacement then let go. This is complete bunk and propagandized drivel.

Oh that is so brilliant! I thought that Swatch would make sense along those lines as well.
