A solar plant in Texas can't send energy to Ireland.

Because, obviously, there is no renewable energy in Ireland

Idiot.

I simply gave an example of the fact that Perl is not just "Python with C syntax", not an extended critique. Note merely said this affected "both efficiency and correctness of programs", not that it constantly caused problems.

The reason I switched away from Perl wasn't its poor design (after all, I still use C++), but the fact that it has been dying slowly. That, and people like you.

discounting a women's opinion because of her perfectly natural body functions isn't sexist? What on earth is then?

It's mildly sexist, but who fucking cares? He insults both sexes for trivial reasons. Notice how you ignore the Fiorina example, which was also an attack against "all women", and all he did was comment on her face.

It's just that these truly dumb actions performed by idiots never added up to some sort of grand conspiracy.

I never said there was a grand conspiracy. I'm just talking about the current zeitgeist and what passes for modern feminism.

What do modern feminists have to actually complain about in the West? A mythical wage gap, a phony rape culture, "mansplaining", "manspreading", etc. Wrongheaded fixations on equal outcomes, when men and women have different interests and strengths.

And yet they try to sweep under the rug the real rape culture and subservient treatment of women they're importing with mass migration.

and who the hell is "mohawk guy

Here.

but you can also apparently find it in insignificant actions

Notice how you again focus on the more trivial problems and ignore the serious problems I've brought up.

The only thing truly threatening men's top dog status in our country though, is our current shit-hole high school and college graduation rates. Maybe focus on something important like that rather than dramatizing minor events.

Maybe they'd be doing better if society stopped pandering to shitty feminism and treated those issues just as seriously.

That's not how profit works. There are a bunch of other costs which eat into that number, such as designing, engineering and proving the device just to name a few.

You seem to be unfamiliar with the term "marginal profit". Lmgtfy.

Ah so you quietly dropped your claim that Scott Adams was shadowbanned. I guess that's the best concession one can get from you.

You're a biased fuckwit

Dude, I already called you a fuckwit. It's plumbing the depths of unoriginality to simply use the same insult. Can't you do better. Here, let me help:

The only question I want answered is "did it pass the test as written by the government?". If yes, what's the problem. If you don't like the results, fix the test.

That's a very good point. The issue with all of these "shocking discoveries" is that they in fact PASSED the various prescribed tests.

And THAT'S Management -- exactly. You can't manage what you can't measure. The EPA is managing the wrong thing and shouldn't be surprised that companies are optimizing to THAT. *ONLY* THAT.

You wanted to test for low engine emissions? You got it. Oh, you assumed that would represent real-world driving? Then you should be testing THAT.

California is a very large state and there is plenty of right wing sentiment. There's just more left wing, and so, on a state level, left wing wins.
Go to Orange County or northern california (north of Sacramento, and you'll find all the right wing you can handle.

Both sides have rather astounding selective memories when it comes to recollection bias. So while you may not recall many (any) it did in fact happen. It was stupid then (vs Obama) and it's stupid now (vs Trump).

Yes, I am sure. I know because my father used to have a handgun.

You can get an air pistol, or a rifle, but not a handgun.

The name of the club pre-dates the banning of handguns in the UK.

It's nice to know you're so easily fascinated. As you lay there in bed alone at night, bereft of friends, partners, and work, you can always amuse yourself by pondering why your life is so barren of anything pleasant or worthwhile.

That happens a lot to people like you.

There is so much irony that it might actually be magnetisable.

By the way I do so absolutely love watching you dig holes for yourself. Regular folks just dig straight down, but you go off in all sorts of weird and wonderful directions. The best bit is that you don't just jump around randomly, when you dig, you do it with real panache. Anyway do continue, I especially like the bits about me supporting Trump. That was such a peculiar diversion that I have never seen its like before.

Yes, you're an annoying asshole, we can certainly all agree on that.

Only to people who can't handle rationality, reason, logic or just simple observation, but most especially, a combination of them. For some reason using any or all of them is deeply aggravating to you and people like you.

It seems to be the one thing in life that you've managed to master. You've no job, no wife/girlfriend, no family, no home, no career, but you're tops in the "annoying asshole" dept.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=projectio...

P.S., the best way to counter that is to spin tall tales about how awesome your life is. You seem, that will definitely convince me and anyone else who might happen to read it.

No, everyone else here has debunked your 'argument' so there's no need for me to humiliate you further.

In other words you've now had two chances to find a rebuttal and can't so it's baby to your regularly scheduled program of... flinging poo.

However, if you are talking about sexual harassment (CEO Bill Clinton banging an intern in the board room (white house) would have gotten anyone else fired from their job immediately)...

It's not exactly sexual harassment when the intern was on the record with her intent to get "banged in the boardroom" before she even left for Washington.

For what it's worth, the Pentagon did argue for being able to purchase a fixed number of RD-181s. But while the Obama admin has funded commercial crew and spawned the creation of a whole host of new domestic launch vehicles, Shelby and his band of Russia-firsters have worked relentlessly to try to kill it off in order to maximize profits for and minimize costs to ULA.

Ukrainian expats, such as myself, have also been — and remain — very vocal calling for tightening sanctions against Russia.

I join you in that from the other side of the aisle (no longer live in the US, but still vote :) ).

That said, I seriously hope you're not considering voting for the candidate whose campaign manager worked for Yanukovitch, whose foreign policy advisor actively works for Gazprom, who intervened on the Republican platform committee on only one issue of the hundreds discussed therein (that being to weaken language supporting Ukraine), says NATO is obsolete, and who insists that Russia did not invade Ukraine, among a laundry list of other things that would take pages to cover here.

Citation? start here. While not being particularly effective at modifying driver behavior (see aforementioned link), they are also not impartial. While they may capture a vehicle and it's operator (maybe) in the middle of a crossing, they do not provide the context. They do not make the observation that the city rigged the yellow lights to be impractically short, they do not even make the observation that the light was in fact red prior to the driver entering the intersection.

This is in contrast to a police body cam which records the video and audio of a police encounter from start to conclusion providing full and usually easy to understand context.

Speaking of fables, I would like to see what happens if someone tried charging their phone in microwave oven.

Whenever you're ready.

I don't think any such study has been performed...

Oh really?

Obviously it is easy to claim other people are making stuff up, when you can't be bothered to search for it.

It was even reported here on /. just a couple of months ago.

1. gee, if there were only a way to find out TL;DC : 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4 not 4.4.4.4
2. you're just trading the NSA for GCHQ, you patriotic American, you.

First, why do you say that Sony lobbied for the laws you're complaining about (it would help also if you articulated those laws with specificity, but then that would make your assertions falsifiable, which I imagine you don't want.)

What, have you been living under a damn rock for the last 20 years? Sony has lobbied for pretty much every recent copyright law. DMCA, SOPA, PIPA, TPP -- you name it, they've lobbied for it. It's not a goddamn secret, you know!

They're mostly hardware, they have no skin in the game on software protection.

What the fuck are you talking about? Sony operates major movie, music and video game studios in addition to making hardware. And don't even try to feed me some bullshit about "that's some other division" -- they're all owned by the same corporation.

Also, I find it telling that so many seem to switch seamlessly back and forth between characterizing Microsoft as using their monopoly powers to coerce manufacturers into doing things that aren't in their own economic best interest, and characterizing Microsoft and Sony as voluntary co-conspirators

Microsoft is not forcing Sony to install Windows at gunpoint. Sony is installing Windows because they want to install Windows and have entered into a contractual agreement with Microsoft to do so -- that's called a partnership.

I rather have the government "screw up" the economy, than the economy screw up the environment.

You say that now, because you're likely employed in the first world. With a high paying job, in either a downtown area or suburb where the loss of thousands of blue collar workers jobs will have minimal impact. Right up until the downtown starts shutting down, and your company moves out.

Think AD for linux, unix, excellent CLI, UI tools, controls DNS, sudo, RBAD, HBAC, kerberos, etc etc. integrates with AD, SAML and many other things. Basically, setups up and easily unifies all the hard boring behind the scenes stuff that no one but SA's care about. If it's good enough for CERN, then it's good enough for me.
