Haha yeah slashdot lets bash all the stupid poor farmers and make fun of them because all those idiots in fly over states are unworthy! On the other hand, students everywhere might get more use of 2 years of C++ or php than 2 years of Spanish. I know I would have used programming more in college and everyday life than Spanish, and if you need Spanish in everyday life you're going to learn it whether its taught in school or not.
Seems like you could have benefited from many things, m ore than 2 years of Spanish. the Monty Python Argument Clinic, for instance.
probably less of these now that we're all broke, but back in the day i went to quite a few interviews where it was clear the main motivation was that the whole group got to take the candidate to lunch on the company dime.
That's my password. ********. The problem is i can't get it not to display.

You see, man made the car To take us over the road Man made the train To carry the heavy load Man made the electric light To take us out of the dark Man made the boat full of water Like noah made the arc This is a mans, mans, mans world But it would be nothing, nothing Without a woman or a girl
the smartest guys i knew (all in academic science, just because that's where i met them) would carry around in their heads lists of all the problems they hadn't solved, and every once in a while they would figure one out and cross it off the list. i don't think most people do that quite so explicitly and obsessively.

Humm... You know Picasso was not at all jew, do you?
And he also was already a master of the standard way by his early teens.
you are unfamiliar with the Protocols of the Elders of Antisemitism; chapter 17, on name.
1) Anybody with a German name is Jewish. 2) Anybody with an Eastern European name is Jewish. 3) Anybody with a Dutch name is Jewish. 4) Anybody with any unusual name is Jewish. 4) Anybody you don't like is Jewish, no matter what the name.
So, two TALENTLESS Jews, being hyped up by JEWS, no doubt, yet again. Picasso couldn't paint to save his life, and his works are monstrosities - a five year old can see that. Freud was a screwed up, neurotic failure, his own 'theories' couldn't even make HIM happy, what hope was there for his 'patients'?
how long have you felt this way about your mother?
"Goliath beats David unless David is clever." You did research to see the Goliath always wins except when David is clever?
it always amazed me that anybody ever figured that a big guy with a sword could beat a little fast guy who had even moderate skill with a sling, on an open field. i suppose they'd think it a miracle that a man with a gun could beat a bear in a fight.
like hitchhikers guide, where the planet sends all its middle managers, marketers, etc. to the "new planet we're going to move to" ahead of everybody else to prepare things, then somehow everybody else never actually leaves the first planet.....
amen to this. just spent hours trying to get rid of toolbarupdateservice.exe, which i think got installed via avs software update, even though i clicked on the NO to ask toolbar, etc. i assume this is the normal mode of operation of the damn thing, not that it's infected; it used up all the cpu cycles on the machine, froze everything, trying to open new adware windows every time i did anything in the browser (chrome). turned off the extension in chrome, but the installer which was also continually running kept reinstalling it. used process hacker to kill it and the installer both (had to go to administrator level), and found it in the control panel programs and uninstalled it there; when i rebooted, there it was back again. used soluto to take it out of the boot software, haven't tried yet to see if it's gone this time. meanwhile, neither norton which is the main/always running protection, not any of the other stuff i have, will do anything to this, even though a google search shows that it's not that rare these days.
i vote with the first guy, a usb in the keyboard is nice to have, so you can plug in your whatever without having to find the back of the PC. especially on the compact keyboards with no number pad, so you can plug in an outboard number pad. luckily, my outboard number pad has a usb slot, so i plug that into the machine, and the keyboard into that.
make it simple. 8 bit character set; 4 fingers on each hand.... what could be logical? you don't see piano players having a different key for each chord. you put it together by playing one note with each finger. if people can memorize the fingering for all those chords, they can sure memorize the bit fingering for the ascii character set. and that leaves the thumbs free for the control and windows/apple keys.
So analyze your data using small sample and nonparametric (I.e. non Gaussian) models if appropriate. Hell, when you come right down to it, nothing is truly Gaussian, we just can't deal with the extensively multivariate nature of reality.

Ethnic discrimination isn't cool just because they're poor, asshole.
No bias against the Kentuckinese.

version control? I thought you wanted me to implement virgin control.
That's because I just can't tolerate intolerance!
my lactose admires you.

women are not capable of production
flunked biology, too, didya?
indeed it is. the stuff about the floating/flying university; could have been taken from polish history in the 70s.
her husband was run over by a damn horse and carriage. easier to see that coming that gamma radiation.

holy moly, thank you for that link; i just finished commenting that i believed in the old ibm m13.
gimme that old IBM M13, weighs 50 lbs, with the pointing stick.wish they had a bluetooth version.
last time i looked, which was back when people still used selectrics, all those fastest typist in the world competitors used dvorak keyboards.
Give me an easy way to permanently (and independent of the OS in use) disable the CAPS LOCK key. That is all I ask.
that's easy. pop the keycap off the keyboard. if you ever need it,. you can snap it back on. i'm serious; this is what i do.
