  8. Re:Conflating open access and open source on Researchers Opt To Limit Uses of Open-access Publications · · Score: 1

    I know, right?

    The fact that researchers are chosing an open access journal at all should be a good sign. The journal provides a range of licence options for a reason but the open access is always there.

    They should cry more.

  15. Re:Terrible, Terrible, Headline on Bloggers Put Scientific Method To the Test · · Score: 2

    This speaks to the failings of the participants implementation of the scientific method, not to the failing of The Scientific Method.

    We have discussed here before the problem of too much content being generated and not enough people to peer review it all. Still not a failing of The Scientific Method.

    And I prefer my ignorance in courier font.

    Liberals believe that Liberty is given to you by the government.

    The whole idea that Liberty is given to you by your God, and therefor not up to a government to take away... you know, the Enlightenment ideas that gave rise to the US Constitution, well that's just old racists talking.

    So the old "Rights" of free speech, have a gun if you want, worship how you want.... that shits on the Liberal Chopping Block. To be replaced with mandatory socialist-issued healthcare as a "right".

    The hell of it is they used the system created by Freedom-loving people and are redirecting it to a Marxist wonderland.

  25. Re:Better than Intel on Samsung Reaches Milestone For 14nm Technology · · Score: 1

    To be honest, I tried to sum up some outrage over your statement... but I just couldn't.

    If Intel really is THAT good that they can coast through life and still beat their competition in technological advancements... then fine.

    Eventually, if your theory is right, someone will come along (maybe even ex-Intel engineers) and beat them. It is already happening in other sectors.
