There very idea of schools is flawed. The concept goes back to pharaoh, in the book of Genesis, having a fear of the decrepit and broken down members of society choking off and destroying the strong and those who would take the extra effort to properly take care of themselves. Joseph, being a very intelligent fellow in need of an opportunity, counseld pharaoh to the advantages of a system of controlling the food supply in the interest of picking and choosing those good and bad elements of society.
Since then it has been nothing short of a disaster. Those who pick and choose the good and bad elements of society tend to pick and choose those who will do what they say. The strong and those who take the extra effort to properly take care of themselves usually have little regard for some fat ignorant fool handing out tokens and there arises a natural conflict of personalities. The fat ignorant fool remains in control of the tokens and the strong and those who take extra effort to properly take care of themselves become the embodiment of pharaoh's original nightmare.
Good job, idiots.
Schools arise from that system of wanting to pick and choose the good and bad elements of society. Since the time of Joseph the Israelites have been asked to leave a number of places over the course of the millenia as have the Christians. Why? Because they operate on this idiotic system of tokens which allows some fat ignorant fool to exercise authority over the strong and those who take extra effort to properly take care of themselves: the exact opposite of the purported purpose behind the regimenting of the land in the book of Genesis.
Sadly, humans are of such weak character that the entire world, some four or five thousand years later, functions on that system. People earn the right to never need to fast as was common on a land when the food was right where God placed it. They always have food in their gut, the food is always soaked with water, the water soaks the tissues of their intestines, and their blood is too thin. Sixty or seventy years of that and the cream separates from the milk, artheriosclerosis, death.
But God wouldn't want you to be hungry? God doesn't want you to develop artherosclerosis, either. That's why he made things the way he did. Your little token system just bungles everything.
Osteoporosis is a similar example. Osteoblasts know to begin forming new bone structure according to rigidity. If there is no vibration then the bone is solid and needs no work. If there is vibration then the bone needs work. Humans, because they submit to the token system to "get something", never really need to walk much because they have automobiles. The bones never rattle, the osteoblasts look for movement and migrate to the surface of the bone. When the muscle does fire it shears the osteoblast and arthritis results. The osteoclasts continue to eat the bone and brittle bones result.
But people go to school to earn the right to do this.
Idiots.
The doctors of the world are not half as good as I am. Why? They are doing it for the money. If they get it wrong sometimes they have the money to compensate. I do it because it must be done right. I have no money.
The teachers of the world are not half as good as I am. Why? They are doing it for the money. If they get it a little wrong there is no real problem; they have money to compensate. I am required to get it right each and every time or else there are real consequences.
All of you with money... you're training yourselves to be statistically weak. That's why you break down over the course of sixty or eighty years.
Not that I have the ability to really even do anything with it but I thought that 2.4 and 2.6 were it, maybe a 2.8, but after that it was all just going to be daily, stable, and branch co.
but because you have the option to spread your operation across different zones and be less impacted when shit happens Amazon is charging customers to be the motivating force behind an enormous experiment designed to approximate financial markets.
The lottery allows people to pay to assist the lottery owners in designing a randomized system which is also designed to approximate financial markets.
The average consumer appears to be paying for the privelege to assist the financial institutions in gathering the data required to reliably predict financial markets. Brilliant.

If you get hacked, Don't publish it. Most people don't even know about it. If the people who have pwned your system allow you to discover it is only because they are setting you up.
If you're surprised by this then you must be new. Enormous service built from an amalgamation of tools with a history of obscure insecurities on top of transport technologies riddled with obscure insecurities is found to have obscure insecurities. This has been going on since before the registry.
That you have a sub-finding strategy that's worth the cost of a laptop and a regular supply of food?
Compared to what you do for your money. I won't even do what you do for money. Given what you have demonstrated to be your money making "profession" I could pimp you off the corner for a nickel if your paycheck were ever cut off. Your manager should begin to exploit that. Knowing that your worst nightmare would be to be my ho, they begin to work you over for everything you're worth on your job.
I couldn't find the online gaming link. Unless they donate a laptop to me, and provide for a diet so that I feel like lugging it around, then they will never know my strategy.

The dose from a small quantity of mercury spilled in your house is far higher to you than mercury breathed in from a distant power plant
Statistically they are about the same. Compare the vapor pressure of mercury at one hundred degrees vs. the vapor pressure of water at zero degrees.
Mercury has almost no vapor pressure up to its boiling point at near four hundred degrees C. That is what makes every argument about mercury vapor poisoning quite laughable.
Excellent point. I have often wondered how the White House claims "wartime powers" (wrt wiretaps, search of private homes and businesses, and surveillance of civilians) when we do not have an official declaration of war.
Maybe we do. I have never seen or heard about it. All I hear is "wartime powers" "wartime powers" and more "wartime powers". Where is the declaration of war?
They do not want to make an actual declaration of war because, if they did, then the terms and conditions for the end of the war would be given in the declaration of war. If we had terms and conditions for the end of the war then we would have citizens pushing to meet them and then there would be no perpetual assumption of "wartime powers". The scam should be crystal clear.
Consider the practice of shaving the head supposedly as the sign of a vow. What's the point? The point is that birth order is roughly marked on the skull of a newborn infant. Those ridges in the skull are made by the teeth. Perhaps oldest sons had a habit of denying their place in the line of birth since the oldest son may have been often sent off to war.
Then there's the tooth fairy. Most mothers (and a few fathers, but the role is usually given to the mothers), when they begin playing "tooth fairy", are met by some daft or crazy old woman who will offer to buy the teeth. Everything is kept quiet with plenty of "do not tell anyone". The teeth are useful as coverups for girls who had intercourse too early and lost theirs ("more difficult than pulling teeth") or for midwives to place teeth in places so that doctors and birthing room nurses do not know that the woman giving birth has done this before. Your mothers make quite a bit of money from your teeth, they rarely tell their husbands about it, and you children are paid nickels and quarters.
What you don't know won't hurt you.
How about your girlfriend? She doesn't have any teeth? She didn't tell you that she had given birth, did she? Or she didn't tell you that she had intercourse at an age before her teeth were properly set. How about your wife? She didn't have any teeth, did she? Perhaps you have grounds for a divorce. It is one thing to believe that your wife first had sex when she was seventeen and never gave birth. It is another thing entirely to know that she first had sex before her teeth were set (age ten or so) or that she has already given birth.
Ha. I remember similar ones. Choosing the Improper USB bus, no keyboard, forgot to compile ATAPI and/or IDE (MBR worked but the kernel cannot find root? WTF?), forgot the parallel port (for the printer), forgetting a basic component of the tcp/ip network subsystem. It's been a few years since I had the pleasure but I do remember the pitfalls of make menuconfig. I miss it.
What exactly is "I cut my teeth on"? Consider: is there any normal course of action in the business of mankind during which a person willingly cuts their teeth? We have these fantastical horror stories about warriors in ancient barbarian tribes filing their teeth for the purpose of rending and tearing the enemy to pieces and appearing ferocious. Do you really believe that? By the time mankind is able to fashion metal weaponry there is really no purpose for filing teeth, if ever there was.
You are using an expression which is derived from "I was cut by the teeth" which is an inside joke against those servant classes who believe that the covenant of circumcision involves mutilating the genitalia of the males. In reality the practice of mutilating male genitalia is a psychological control technique meant to give the servant classes a psychological complex and render them susceptible to Asmodeus. Asmodeus is the demon in the book of Tobit who visits newlyweds and causes the male to falter in his participation. The bride, not understanding what could possibly be the problem, is then left disappointed and second-guessing her choice of a husband. This makes the bride available for the archangel Raphael who sends the dejected and self-conscious husband to the front of the caravan while Raphael goes to console the bride.
The expression and concept of being "cut" was originally a trapping of manhood. Cut by the knife, as in circumcised mutilation? No. That is the sign of a servant. A real man is "cut by the teeth" (not "cut my teeth on") as in being bitten by the teeth of a woman's inside voice.
The real covenant of circumcision is the overheated spot on the lips formed by the temple acolyte hitting the opium pipe too aggressively. As the burn heals it leaves a circular area which, if removed improperly, is exceptionally painful--priests are supposed to be able to withstand pain which also makes them ready to be "cut by the teeth" of a woman's inside voice without suddenly pulling away in surprise with the possibility of pulling the teeth out.
This is also the reason for epidurals. Women who opt for the epidural during the birthing process have less control over their birthing mechanism and are unlikely to notice their own teeth falling out--women who do not opt for the epidural stand a larger chance of keeping all or some of their inside voice teeth. This continues to serve as a control technique. Many of the women do not even know of their own teeth and, while everyone is kept in the dark (so to speak), then we do not have women making men out of servants.
This is also why hunters are trained not to shoot Bambi, doe tags are monitored, and we encourage hunters to take their kills to a proper butcher--we do not want servants finding all of the missing parts which are carefully glossed over in government accredited educational institutions.
It occurred to me quite a few years ago that modern desktop environments and desktop toolkits (eg. GNOME, KDE, E17, Qt) are the equivalent of a DoS or brute force attack on ldd or any dynamic linker.
How many different index/db systems are there on a modern day OS? Wasn't an optimal one found about the time that computers evolved from a static memory registers to paged access? There is probably index circuitry in the memory chips themselves by now.
I did that, too. Dr. Square was running a COSY experiment on a 200 MHz Varian NMR. The system appeared to be locked and I _really_ wanted to take a single pass (16 or 32 scan) spectrum on a single experiment. The user's manual seemed to indicate that the twelve hour experiment's data was being saved on disk as it was acquired and that it would be possible to cycle the power, run my experiment, and then resume his.
I read something wrong. It wasn't being saved to disk as it was being acquired. He was pissed.
Repeated anonymous telephone calls to your employer that you look at computer pr0n (because _nobody_ does that)--if your employer brushes off the anonymous telephone call then eventually they try to get rid of you just to make the telephone calls stop. Repeated anonymous telephone calls to your insurance (home/auto/health) that you look at computer pr0n (because _nobody_ does that)--if your carrier brushes off the anonymous telephone call then eventually they try to get rid of you just to make the telephone calls stop. Repeated anonymous telephone calls to your family that you look at computer pr0n (because _nobody_ does that)--nobody better than your family to keep secrets from you and follow up on any little tasty morsel of gossip they hear. Repeated anonymous telephone calls to the local PD that you look at computer pr0n (because _nobody_ does that)--if the police brush off the anonymous telephone call then eventually they put somebody on your case just to give them something to do. People you don't even know following you into every restaraunt, pub, shopping center, and library to tell the management that you look at computer pr0n (because _nobody_ does that)--if the managers brush off the anonymous tipsters then eventually they give you horrendously bad service because they don't want to hear it anymore.
And, once the anonymous telephone calls have been made enough times, then the court ordered network surveillance of all of the computer pr0n which you look at (because _nobody_ does that).
In short, if your attacker is willing to pay anything, you are done for no matter what
You have two options. Go to St. Vincent's, agree to change your name and kill off your identity, inherit an identity complex for the rest of your life, struggle to make it back to minimum wage slum living... or you may rot on the street next to the other homeless people because we don't like to feel obligated to give charity; if we feel obligated then we won't give anything.
