We thought it would be interesting and important to show X. We tried, A, B, and C, but none of those things did what we expected. We still haven't shown X
I can see why journals might be hesitant to publish a paper like this. It's a little like that newspaper headline: "Fairly Small Earthquake in Andes--Not Very Many Killed", not exactly an eyeball grabber. Science journals are also dependant on sales for advertising revenue, and those sales depend on papers showing positive results.
Up until they passed the smoking ban in restaurants (at least in philadelphia) anytiem I would go to a restaurant/bar/club I would be exposed against my consent.
I am a nonsmoker but whenever we go to a restaurant we ask to be seated in the smoking area. Why? Because the law says no one under 18 is permitted in the smoking area and we find cigarette smoke in these well-ventilated areas a lot less obnoxious than the screaming brats outside.
If he wants to ignore the vaccine, and go with the consequences, then that's up to him, so long as he accepts the consequences whatever they may be (including death).
Except that the consequences are not his alone. Humans have developed "herd immunity" due to vaccines; there is not enough prevalence of the pathogen for infection to pass amongst the population. By not vaccinating your child, you are compromising the herd immunity and that may lead to the illness or death of someone else's child who could not be vaccinated for other legitimate reasons, like allergy.
In 4chan terminology, "fag" is just a suffix that means "person" or "people".
In some English-speaking jurisdictions "fag" means "cigarette", but I don't think calling people cigarettes works as an insult. It would just confuse them even more than they are already confused by their hair-brained cult.
I don't know how one might solve these issues outside of making programming a full-body sport
It's important to take a break at least once an hour and spend 5 minutes doing something else. Our offices are above the warehouse which is 200m long. Every hour I suspend programming activities and walk to the end of the warehouse and back. Apart from getting the blood flowing (how many programmers succumb to economy class syndrome?) it also gives my eyes a chance to focus on something more than two feet away.
Incidentally, we have two fat girls in our team who don't lift their enourmous arses off their suffering chairs all day except to go to the canteen to consume vast mounds of chips. We work one floor up and they take the lift. They whine that their obesity is caused by glandular problems, but we know better: a combination of gluttony and laziness will do it every time.
Install Windows updates, latest security patches: Ongoing cost, $1.1million annual: profit, $0. Return on investment: 0%.
Backup the servers with all the business documents, records, and databases: Cost: $5 million annual, profit: $0. ROI: 0%.
Not quite: latest security patches & backups --> ISO certification --> more clients --> profit.
we will of course launch into space a "lifeboat" containing a judge, defense and plaintiff lawyers, Rusty the Bailiff to keep everyone in line, and one token normal person to be the plaintiff.
Would that be the "B" ship? What about the hairdressers and telephone sanitizers?
OK, the Boston Globe has an illustration of the woman sawed in half trick. I have wracked my brains, but cannot come up with any plausible scenario wherein the CIA would need to know how to do that. If anyone has a more productive imagination, or was actually in the CIA, please let us know how this was used.
I bought a gym franchise with my savings. My wife, who used to be a nurse, runs it and I just look after the admin side (it's a woman's gym and I'm not allowed in during open hours; we've got some muslim members who would probably get stoned if they were seen by a man in their leotards) and give the girls on the staff an occasional pep talk. Money was crap initially, but as our membership built up it improved, then the financial meltdown happened and our membership plummeted. I have had to go back to work in IT to make ends meet while we ride out the storm, but things are starting to improve again and we should be back in profit within the next month or so.
Starting your own business is something to think about, but only if you have sufficient capital to set it up and keep yourself for at least a year until it shows a profit. Remember that some things you take for granted in the corporate world you would have to provide for yourself: health insurance, pension or provident plan, etc. You will probably experience some sleepless nights; your responsibilities are likely to be far more onerous than anything you experienced in the IT field, but the potential rewards are great.
Fine and dandy, if they want to localize the product
Except that they don't. They're too lazy even to provide a 220v power supply for jurisdictions which use 220v, anyone who is fool enough to buy one is expected to provide their own adapter.

Why? When I drive in the rain more raindrops hit the front of my car than the back.
In space no one can hear your kaboom.
15 minutes? Luxury. I report mine in 6 minute increments (0.1 hours).

One with non-circular circles.
Especially if they have South African stars.
No it doesn't. China does. that's what TFA is about.
It isn't in china either.
My dog http://www.facebook.com/dufus.widdicombe/ has more friends than I do.
These guys are there. This thing is really ice-cool. http://www.roboni-i.com/

I've got a solar girlfriend, but she's not much use in London.
In that case, Bob, I forgive you, and drink to your good health.
What's wrong with an Oxford comma?
Politics is disorganised crime.
