While correlation is not causation, it's a statsitically significant difference. Therefore, there is something separating those groups. It could be a confound (for instance, maybe the layoffs were limited to those with PhDs, and more women at MS had PhDs), but the test for "is the size of the delta worth talking about" passed.
The line covers all of Europe, North America, the Atlantic north of the Tropic of Cancer, the Mediterranean Sea, and areas now moot in North Africa - and includes within those spaces other signatories' territory, forces, ships or aircraft come under attack by any other power, as spelled out by Articles 5 and 6 in the North Atlantic Treaty.
Turkey is (a) in Europe and (b) a NATO member. If Russia is overflying Turkey, the other NATO powers have a treaty to come to their aid and shoot down the Russian planes. And has for 60 years (or whenever the other states joined NATO, in the case of recent members)
Yes, but WWI was caused by many factors, including a network of western alliances, a rapid advance in communication technologies and globalization, a multiethnic region where nobody seemed to be able to get along, a rising industrial and economic power challenging the existing hegemon, and the last straw, Russia coming to the aid of a long time ally amidst a campaign of terrorist acts.
Fortunately that sounds nothing like the world today!
Hey now, I'd put Russia more in Germany's place. Kinda pissed off at everyone else, issues a carte-blanche to their weaker ally (Assad, not Austro-Hungarian Emperor) to be backed up doing whatever he wants.
OMFG! There was a fluctuation of 2.2 percent in the female employees of a major corporation that has bizzilions of employees that come and go!
The larger the corporation, and the less turnover it has in general, the more significant a small number is. If there are 49 employees, a 2.2% fluctuation is someone quitting. If there were 2 million employees, with say, 20% layoffs, that a 2.2% reduction between gender groups is extremely significant (p
Both the school and the police fucked up royally. There is no other way to look at it.
Well, if the school board was specifically set up, I see it totally differently. We don't allow police entrapment for very good reasons. I don't think it's unreasonable to disallow citizen/b'crat entrapment for the same reasons.
Hunting and fishing licenses are also to ensure the proper level/age/gender of animals, or at least close to it, is hunted, for conservation, etc. purposes
TVs and DVDs use an Off LED as opposed to an On LED. A TV is, by definition, close the picture it displays when in use, and a DVD player is assumed to be. Therefore, the On LED would be more annoying. Since the power supply, etc. are already consuming an order of magnitude (or more) than the LED will draw, there's not much reason, energy wise, to leave them off. Bonus, if you dislike it so you unplug it, you'll save more than 10x what you think you're saving (assuming you're the average person just worrying about the cost of the light.)
Without the threat of a lawsuit and large payout there'd be no incentive to this school (or others) to change, they'd continue to overreact to minor things and escalate to the police without reasonable cause.
Somewhat untrue. There's a counter-"zero tolerance" movemnet gaining steam. And politicans are driven more by PR than monetary fines anyway.
In fact there's already increasing evidence that our modern relatively protected lifestyles cause all manner of long-term health problems.
For auto-immune disorders, we can bring something less than wild (can enough vaccines to it? Can something easy to fight like engineered weak cold germs do it?) For the other issues, if we lose our hard-won restiance to X, but live on Mars so X never arrives, that's fine as long as quarantees are in place.
From a scientific perspective, it's true that good for us stuff is also bad. But from a colonization perspective, let's be more careful.
FFS, we can def. keep rats away. And we should know enough to keep germs out.
Well, sometimes the replies are amazing. "This is an undocumented way the compiler actually works" or "the debugger is actually crashing here, the reasons why are X, Y or Z, good luck.
Sometimes the replies make it easier to figure out how to use a library.
Sometimes they point to papers on algorithims I never found on my own.
But you have to be able to read it to separate the signal from the noise. It's more like the Physician's Desk Reference. Great if you're a doctor, maybe only as useful as WebMD if you're not.
I'd need a citation for the workers being less productive. Knowledge workers, yes. People who are literal cogs in a manufacturing machine? I'd can see less efficiency in hour 15 than hour 2, but not negative efficiency.
Oh, she's definitely my friend. She participates in the hackathons and honestly loves them. It's really, really strange to me that she would think so, but...
Why is Linux, VM and Tor browser so cheap or easy or well covered vs US brands that enthusiastically helped US and UK gov with decryption in the past are so expensive?
Because the number of Linux people who do online bakning in a VM hrough TOR is small. The number of iOS people who do banking on their phoine is large.
It is required by law that the state sell voter information to corporations? What the hell for?
Well, I can see why a third-party should and would get that data. Or someone who wants to run in a primary without the backing of the party. And the line between what parties should and should not get that data probably shouldn't rely on a political appointee deciding if your part is "real".
Now, if there's a better way to handle it, I'm all for that. But fact of the matter is that it seems like most other voting issues , e.g. idiots' votes count equally to Einstein's - any other method is rife for abuse and worse.
A friend is trying to recruit me to join her company. One of the "benefits" was 24-hour hackathons. I don't get it at all. I so, so, so don't want to pull all-nighters unless it were necessary, and if I want to work on a side-project, I would normally expect to keep the rights, not turn them over for a free dinner.
Compared to America's interstates, it is, actually, a pathetic road â" mere two or three narrow lanes. But they don't have a speed-limit on many of them anyway
A traffic engineer once explained that the American highway system was designed so that cars would be able to go 100 MPH safely (with regard to curves, etc.) And that was using assuming the tech of the time.

It's what happens when there's a build up gases from fracking.

Ironic, because the real problem was MacArthur almost decided that nukes were pretty good problem solvers and kicked off WWIII.

Bull. The school is in Texas.
Cool, what else is admirable about him?

Well, I think I can answer, for everyone, what people liked about him. His desired to take apart a clock he bought.
Did he really have that desire? Were his motives pure? I dunno. But that's what people are identifying with.

FFS, we can def. keep rats away. And we should know enough to keep germs out.
Well, yeah, not total bacterium free. But why bring influenza, various poxes, HIV, etc.
I'm not afraid to modify Mars, but if we have the possibility to have a germ-free world, let's figure out how to do that.

The Libertarian Party, which refused to return or destroy the disk. Or maybe one of the other random third parties.

My guess would be 1.7 million former voters who died/moved/something were included in the list.
