Maternal chromosomal DNA is from the nuclear DNA donor
non-high midichlorin femaile character, like... not Princess Leia, she clearly has midichlorins. Were there any other females in those movies?
Paternal chromosomal DNA is from the sperm
from Han Solo. Or, god forbid, Jar Jar Binks. So, basically, because of the importance of this midichlorinal DNA, Jar Jar could be given Jedi powers? That is messed up.
No, he works at McDonald's. Old joke: You can classify people by the questions they ask. Science majors ask, "What are the rules that govern the universe?" Engineering majors ask, "How can I use those rules to build useful products?" Business majors ask, "How much will it cost/how many can I sell?" Everyone else asks, "Do you want fries with that?"
Not really a surprise, if the math instruction that you eliminate is poor to begin with. From the article:
The school that Kenschaft visited happened to be in a very poor district, with mostly African American kids, so at first she figured that the worst teachers must have been assigned to that school, and she theorized that this was why African Americans do even more poorly than white Americans on math tests. But then she went into some schools in wealthy districts, with mostly white kids, and found that the mathematics knowledge of teachers there was equally pathetic.
Finding good math teachers is a challenge, in my experience. In the US, most elementary teachers are not really "math" teachers, and mathematicians aren't necessarily good teachers. My four-year-old son attended a Montessori preschool and I was amazed at the math that they were teaching him -- amazingly good. I believe it conferred numeracy that will serve him well for the rest of his life. Full disclosure: I teach high school math.
Yes, you know the Windows monopoly is finally threatened with real competition when Bill Gates begins development of a new means of holding the world ransom, for one billion dollars.
Slightly smug? That is so Norwegian of you. I mean, if I were Norwegian, I'd be obnoxiously smug about it, but I guess perhaps that's why I'm not Norwegian. (Full disclosure: German American, ancestors came in 1734. See? Obnoxiously smug. Can't help it.)
Yeah, I can just see Larry Ellison wandering around a huge mall parking lot, trying desperately to remember where he parked his Russian stealth fighter. Damn it, he says to himself, why didn't I just drive the Lamborghini?

What happens when you hit 20?
Does this have a punchline, or are we just supposed to know it already, like "Why is 6 afraid of 7?" or "What did 0 say to 8?"
Well, this is slashdot, after all. Cute women, bullying jocks, idiotic high school teachers, Bill Gates. It could make for a long list.
How about a bicycle-ride recorder, for the next time someone throws trash at you or yells obscenities.
The only difference between you and a madman is that you are not mad.
Anakin Skywalker's mother, for instance.

...using the jaws of life.
I wish someone would port your post into a car analogy. Is there any rule against that?
There's an app for that?
People have been and, as long as there is goatse.cx, will continue to be exposed on slashdot.
Only if it involves a beard.

Maybe Microsoft will learn from those mistakes and put a fake horse's ass on this device.
The real test is whether it can be used to drive the loitering kids away from convenience stores and McDonald's.

Until then, we'll keep driving our Toyotas...
How can Lt. Ellen Ripley's taped-together flamethrower/machine gun/grenade launcher not make this list?
Why choose pants? They come right off as soon as you get to those college parties. Oh, wait, this is Slashdot.
20! is indeed more efficient than listing 20*19*18*17...
Who said anything about pizza?!

What, did he use it to write something in the snow?
