"A person who has not made his great contribution to science before the age of 30 will never do so."
- Albert Einstein But Einstein said that after he was 30, which means it is utter nonsense.
I guess you don't consider a sum of over one billion US$ to be a significant contribution to the development of nuclear fusion. Considering that the resources necessary to make a viable reactor would be ridiculous for any independent company or individual to obtain. That's why that the major technologically advanced nations of the world have combined resources for such a project.
There is a vast difference between an offer and a contract. I guarantee he's not a contracted employee otherwise he wouldn't have this problem. Look up "at will" employment.
I don't think it means what you think it means. Let me 'splain... the king allowed the military units in the colonies to be the dominate force. They didn't have to answer to the Governor. And in many cases they were the civil power.
I just developed a 161-kilobit memory cell that has a bit density of 100 gigabits per square centimeter. That's right, one more. Most blokes, are at 160. But I'm at 161 for when I need that extra push!
Not that I know of. But I don't get out that much anymore. Kids, you know. My wife hates it here though, she's from SF. Well, she hates the weather, the city is kind of growing on her.
"The device was apparently tested on two soldiers and a group of ten reporters, which makes me wonder how thoroughly this thing has been safety tested."
I'd suggest you do more research. Your "facts" about military leadership are off the mark. Even the Marine Corps has an aircraft maintenance man leading their enlisted. Now if that isn't against an institutional bias, I don't know what is.
Mod parent up. This is exactly why. Businesses are about money, finances, accounting, that's what it all comes down to. The majority of CEOs aren't from marketing or sales as some people on here claim. They are former CFOs or CAOs. Next to that are the COOs. It's all a numbers game. The further you get from the numbers or the core of the business the less likely you are to move up. That's why you don't see many HR types or IT types as CEOs. Their main function is viewed as peripheral. Look at the military. The majority of the generals are either from the combat arms or from logistics, same deal.
From what I know, this whole line of thought is wrong. If you look at the CEOs of the Fortune 500, the majority of them were CFOs or CAOs with a lot of COOs thrown in. I don't know where this prevalent thought that marketing and sales become CEOs comes from. Maybe in certain industries this is true.
1. The average husband has experienced wife troubles for an average of three consecutive days - about every month - over the course of his marriage. This is in addition to random outbursts throughout the month. 2. The average husband is wasting 96 hours per month - the equivalent of every weekend - due to "honey-do" lists. 3. The majority of husbands (100%) describe their most recent experience with a spousal problem as one of anger, indifference, or confusion.
a "good bank", which is on the same level as "military intelligence" as far as oxymorons go.
So, you mean that it's a completely idiotic and ignorant use of the term oxymoron. I understand completely.
That's what I was thinking but I wasn't sure I could put it clearly so I opened it up to you guys. I think the most interesting fact about it is that it would even catch coded conversations. It would catch the agreements, and if the agreement, say purchasing cattle took place in an area where that exchange wouldn't make sense, well, it could flag it for review as well. It essentially boils down a conversation to the most important part, and that makes for less data for other programs or people to sort through.
I love DNA as much as the next guy. But I doubt Adams would want his writing to be taken so seriously. You remind me of a friend of mine who still carries a towel with him everywhere. As for the grammar bit, Google thinks otherwise.
You should be ashamed. It is: DARPA has yet to acknowledge the project that I worked will on 3 years from now in 2010. Last week, January 14, 2012 we tested will successfully the Time Redaction Project. So, I gave myself the plans tomorrow so that I submit will them a few years ago to get will the grant money. DOD has used this to send a nuke to kill the dinosaurs. I hope it works.
"watch a conversation between two people and, using natural-language processing, figure out what are the tasks they agreed upon." Anyone care to guess what they plan to use that little gadget for?

most of those things have been improved upon over the last few years, and as for the ones that haven't

your points are valid, but we differ on our opinions of the facts
What, exactly, is wrong with the overall economy of the US? Some small areas may have it bad, but overall our economy is doing well.
You were lucky! In the third grade, they made us INTO bombs... and we liked it!

That is where the name "China" comes from for the West. They call themselves Chung-kuo, literally, "the Middle Kingdom."

You forgot the Indians.
DL is also your state ID, it's not evidence of eligibility to work, but it is proof of ID... Check this out:

That should settle the argument.
"The device was apparently tested on two soldiers and a group of ten reporters, which makes me wonder how thoroughly this thing has been safety tested."
You're worried about the soldiers, right?
Not true.
So you want to be a CEO

Psssssshhhhaw. That's nothing.

They've hit a snag in the research. It's quite puzzling. They've discovered that the cat can see and is blind at the same time.
