Yes it does contribute to the money supply. Pick up a fucking banking book you douche. It didn't directly increase M1, thank god. But it did increase the money supply. Loans can indeed be issued on the increased supply from quantitative easing. We got lucky in that it did not happen. There is a latent fear of inflation unless that supply is reduced. It is difficult to put the jeanie back in the bottle when you are printing money to buy from the market--which is what happened here.
Yeah...I can a see a chat window popping up at work and instead of the usual begging for a quick code review it is a colleague asking for a shit sample. Probably wouldn't go over too well.
Because there is an aspect of your mind that can compare/contrast/question/fork your random thoughts based on an explicit will for something different. You mean to argue that you have never done that? Sometimes it is called: thinking outside the box. We have evolved to the point where we *can* do this...most people do not but the capability is there.
Society doesn't really embrace the notion of reform and cannot...reform is a personal choice. Punishment serves only as deterrent meant to sway the personal economic choice of certain crimes toward a decision more appropriate for everyone.
"I could smash this dude and take his money which is a positive benefit for me, but if I get caught I know I will be prosecuted and punished which is not worth a couple hundred dollars...never mind"
One could argue that the person who didn't reason and come to this conclusion was mentally ill and that most of the people in prison are indeed mentally ill.
Actually this has been discovered....it is an in utero hormone issue...so it may be bacteria related and there most likely could be a cure if it was OK to talk about the reality of the situation and work on a treatment. Instead we have an emotional charge built up around the subject and call it a "lifestyle choice." It is no more a choice than heterosexuality. It would be nice to have a preventative cure....but we are stuck, for the time being, with our barbaric proclivities.
No, but bandwidth certainly does matter. For instance, I live in an area where there is no basic internet service. Some get DSL, but it is spotty, others deal with satellite and 3G/4G which has transfer caps and is very expensive. This is an area where most people are poor--however I am not. Anyway, the benefits of unlimited transfer and decent transfer speed bring with it the ability to engage online classes, watch video, use services like Netflix and Hulu, connect with people in real time, work over a VPN, host your own website (instead of paying for expensive hosting), and well....the list can go on and on. None of this is really possible in my area and frankly, I'm sick of it, I'm moving my family to a place where "the internet will melt your face off" and it is cheap. What happens? The area gets worse because the infrastructure will not improve and the people who are key to setting an example, and enriching people's lives with better possibilities, move to seek better conditions.
What kills me is that we have this debate about whether merging the last two major cable companies is a good idea when the merger of the number 3 and number 4 wireless mobile carriers (Sprint and T-Mobile) is automatically dismissed before even being considered. As a consumer I was exceited by the prospect of those mobile companies merging. I do hope this double-fuck called the Bush and Obama administrations is the low point in our history as a country and we can move on to better days.
hashdot.org is a crappy site, surely we can get together enough to buy that. Any suggestions? I would devote time/money to building the new site and getting it running. Anyone?
Had no interest in the beta or new site whatsoever...and certainly no interest in a tongue lashing from fucking Timothy about how I'm going to have to deal with the new site. However, I checked it out and I'm impressed! It now looks like every other site and there are plenty of pretty pictures for people who can't read or think! Where did you guys get that template--I may want to buy it myself as I have an extra $2 at the moment. If you want a site that appeals to everyone then create a new site...real simple...if it is good, they will come. Though, it is perfectly normal to delude yourself into thinking you can take an asset like slashdot.org and parlay it into a non-niche community. Good luck.
Just finished a 3 year stint within a community college and you are spot on. Upper management ("the administration") will reward the teachers who make their lives easy--which is always far from the priorities of providing a good, wholesome, meaningful education to students. The administration can fire bad teachers but they are not interested in legal entanglements with the union. In reality the teachers would back down, in most cases not strike, and get on with their lives...but there is the looming uncertainty, and above all, above every other priority, the administration wants to do their job, get their check and fat retirement, and go home without any trouble or disturbances. There is no incentive to provide a quality education and improve matters--the money just keeps flowing.
I think you are right. Perhaps it is pure marketing genius. No one would have noticed or talked about Windows at all if released a new version of Windows 7, even more perfect than the last. Really there was no need for a new version. So they threw us for a loop, caused a big ruckus and will release a OS that incorporates everything we want. By drumming up controversy they now know what we want--no doubts.
Yeah, seriously, start my applications, don't crash, and get out of my way. I do like how in Windows 7 sanity prevailed and we were able to hit one key start typing a few characters...hit ENTER, and you have what you need. The best advancement in desktops was getting rid of that damned silly mouse.
...and what is this OS X "it just works" crapola? Windows has been solid for many years--Windows 7 being stellar compared to the last few x64 Linux desktop distros I tested and the devil-may-care backwards-compatible support attitude of Apple. OS X is fine I guess, but Windows 7 is the premier PC desktop of our age. Still timid about Linux x64 desktops....afraid to waste as much time as I did on my last round of testing.
I would definitely keep working if I obtained 1 mil somehow. I'm grown-up enough to not take comfort in such an amount. It is just money. I need secure assets that keep making money. Besides, I would spend or invest it somehow and need more.

Indeed....an high school is too late. If they aren't able to take command of a ship at age twelve I believe the kid is already spoiled beyond repair.
One would argue it is all natural if you were watching all of this happen from a half million miles away
enough of your shitty facts and pedantry....we were having a good time working up a mob until you opened your big trap
and this whole time I was wishing I had parents

Dude, you need more than one yogurt. In this case you would need a lot of yogurt, probably more than you are willing to eat.

....and we could bring our kids to see them...and the visitors could feed them...and cheer when they do tricks. I think you are on to something.
Ostracism only serves to amplify and encourage bad behavior.

Yo dawg...I put some encryption in your encryption so you can be encrypted while you encrypt.

LMFAO!!!
Yes they are. Total costs are always figured into pricing....even if you reach a floor, the floor includes the transaction fees. Same with taxes.

CEOs should be earning what they do....evidence, they are earning that much. Grow up.
