I'd imagine that a philosophy student would be the most prepared for that sort of thing, but philosophy is the closest to the hard sciences in terms of intellectual rigor.
Suppose that Google gives 10 shoulder-fired missile launchers and an arsenal of 200 missiles to the guerillas in Peru. In exchange, the Peruvian guerillas agree to kill 50 poachers and blow up 10 Korean fishing vessels.
Why the hell you gotta blame the Koreans ya racist?
Everyone knows its the damn Japanese that are to blame. The whaling bastards.
Apperently the "mastermind" behind september eleventh has confessed to just about everything.
Yeah, he not only planned and executed hundreds of terror plots, he also killed your puppy and shot Santa.
Oh, did I mention that he eats babies and was definitely not tortured in to giving a confession. I mean, they even asked him, in his secret hearing, answers redacted, if he was confessing under duress. And, say the army, he said that he did not confess under duress.
Thank goodness. Now that we have the real culprit behind 9/11 we can leave Iraq and Afghanistan and bring our boys home.
Well, it is the X-Men. At one point, immediately post "Days of Vengeance" i think, they had all been dead at least once. And real dead, not like, oh, we only think they're dead. They just get brought back to life by a goddess or some such thing.
I assume you've also never signed anything that says you won't break into houses and crap on the floor.
Yeah, but if I buy a bottle of coke I don't see any reason I shouldn't piss in it.
And what's more, if you sell me a sheet of paper with a code on it and then get pissed when I break it, you're going to have to start prosecuting all us folks who do the crypto-quote in the newspapers. That's illegal, too.
Why make persistent efforts to expose this unproven "flaw" in a public manner unless the intention were to harm eBay's image and/or their stock position?
Compensation for a tort is not taxation, and is determined on a case-by-case basis by the courts, not for all of society through a legislature.
I think the idea is that it is possible to determine a standardized cost for doing certain things. Say, for every Kilo of CO2 release $X amount of harm is done, then someone who release Y Kilos of CO2 must pay $XY.
The real problem with this scheme is where the money ends up. Because if history is any guide then the poor will end up not getting anything, the middle-class will get stilts (you know, for when the water rises), and the rich will get the rest of the money.

As a Californian I would whole-heartedly approve.
Carry on with the plan.
You win. The Mayan calender ends at Venus' "final" transit of the sun. The return of Quetzalcoatl, or second coming, if you will.
The main reason we mostly use gasoline to get around is that it's still very cheap.
That and it makes transporting large amounts of energy very easy in man usable packages. It's incredibly energy dense.

You ever use symbolic logic?
Ever take a metaphysics class?
None of that easy humanities fluff writing.
Well, one would assume that the 100,00 is in addition to the free ride she'lll be getting at her scholl of choice.
She built a fucking spectrometer on thee cheap.

I love this shit hole of a country.

Uh...ok. I'm not sure how that relates to what I was saying
You're the one who was talking about shitting in someones house.
This has nothing to do with breaking a cipher. AES is not broken.
Do you even know what the DMCA is? Have you read it?

You must be new here.
And therein lies the genius of the plan.

Step 1: Convince company to run postgres on windows.
Step 2: Postgress run like crap.
Step 3: Convince customer that it is postgres and *not* windows that is the problem.
Step 4: Get customer to use MSSQL
Step 5: Profit
Step 6: ?
Um, they're talking to Novell.
Novell and MicroSoft, ring a bell?
Microsoft will probably support this.
Bah, they're going through Novell.
Clearly the Novell Microsoft team up is having some affect on industry.
If I remember correctly they were trying for a 4Megawatt *chemical* laser in Real Genius.
This is a 65Kw solid state laser, so about 100 times weaker.

Why make persistent efforts to expose this unproven "flaw" in a public manner unless the intention were to harm eBay's image and/or their stock position?
Well, cause it's funny.
Or so his name gets in the news.
mainly the latter.
There is a huge leap from "ugly as sin" to "good" and that definitly falls in the ugly as sin category.
For examples of sites that are in between and yet used often, most often perhaps, see:
Google
Craigslist
Wikipedia
Then tell me something has to be pretty.
If you knew anything about the history of Islam you would realize what an absurd statement that is.
The only reason you go modded up is because people enjoy having their ignorance reinforced.
We're talking about taxes, not rounding people up.
Tool.

Well, I did as you suggested.
Pretty much every single paper that I saw confirmed global warming.
Good job taking parts of them out of context.
Well, I think that forcing people to tell the truth in court is an infringement on free speech!
If we force people to tell the truth in court then how long until we force them to tell the "truth" everywhere else?
Taco?
Is that you?
Commercial speech is already censored.
Please do not pull bullshit slippery slope arguments out of your ass.
Note also that this is in England where there are far more strict laws about speech.
