The population of the developed countries has already stabilized, and the only reason many countries don't have a decreasing population is due to immigration. Once parts of Asia and Africa catch up to countries like Chile, there won't be any population growth globally. We just need to be able to feed about 2 billion more people, since UN population predictions show the global population stabilizing at around 9 billion in the neighborhood of 2050.
Some people actually like the taste of things like caviar. It's too salty for most people, but I personally love it. Moreover, I started eating it as it has always been a staple of big family meals to have some with crackers, pate, and so forth, and I had no idea it was expensive, I just liked it since I was like 6.
Excel is used very heavily by actuaries in insurance companies. Where I work, we mostly use Excel VBA to generate tables and RExcel for data analysis. I must admit I would rather we work in a pure matrix system, but it works. Besides, the important part isn't what you use, but how you use it. Excel gets the job done.
You can't get rich on skills alone, you also need some luck. So of course such linear relationships don't hold at tail ends. In all likelihood, no one in the sample made that much money, so it's ridiculous to extrapolate that far from the data.
But it isn't even particularly high-grade or hard plastic, you're still much better off making a zipgun out of a heavy-duty pipe or something; that should be far less likely to blow up in your face. A standard pipe bought with cash is just as untraceable and far more effective.
That bath salts stuff seems like a hilarious practical joke. He's gotta do something with his time, and I'm guessing at 67 he can't just shag his harem 24/7.
Which is why many laptops come with 2 graphics cards, a real one and a tiny one for low power consumption. Furthermore, with multi-core CPU's, you can only have 1-2 running at a low speed at the same time when you're just browsing the internet or something.
Besides, it seems to me that the American Revolution was unnecessary in retrospect as Canada stuck with England and still managed to get its independence.
Actually, robbers usually only carry guns just in case they run into a homeowner who is armed. In less-armed first world countries, robbers usually just run when confronted. While they could get a gun if they really wanted to, the only thing it accomplishes is longer jail time if they get caught.
Be fair. They misclicked or something while highlighting/selecting cells. Their mistake is in not checking their work properly, but that doesn't mean they don't understand the math.
Yeah, but making that stuff is incredibly difficult. Keep in mind that it's impossible to store pure fluorine, for example, as it'll eat its way out of anything. So chances are, for anyone other than an expert chemist, if they try to make anything like that their faces will get melted off.
You gotta keep in mind that with regards to the Geneva Convention, it is less a list of "moral" rules and more things that are in the best benefits of all parties engaged in war if they all follow them. Think of it as a prisoner's dilemma that is repeated. If one chooses the selfish option, then everyone else will also pick it afterwards, making everyone a loser. So if a country gives its soldiers plastic ammo, for example, they'll injure tons of enemies, creating a huge drain on resources, but then the enemy will just do the same thing to them, resulting in a net loss to everyone. Same thing with POWs.
Well, for one thing, think about what IQ, short for Intelligence Quotient means. It is the ratio of mental age to physical age, multiplied by 100 arbitrarily. Of course, for adults that aspect doesn't really matter, except maybe to judge senility of seniors, but for children, it is effective. The tests schools give are generally modified IQ tests anyways, so that's why they look at percentile. I know that in Ontario for example, proof of a high-enough IQ from a test done by a real psychologist is enough to get someone into the gifted program.
I guess you don't know what statistics even means, do you? A statistic is an estimator of a population parameter. If you have exact data you're not doing any estimation.
So the goals of the different factions aren't different? They might share some beliefs, but not all of them, otherwise they wouldn't be separate factions.
But keep in mind that real-estate is a safer long-term investment. While it can, of course, lose a significant part of its value, some of it will still remain, and at the end of the day, it doesn't matter that much the net worth of your house if you can live in it. If the US undergoes hyperinflation or defaults on its debt within the next 20 years or so and you were just investing all your money on stocks and bonds, you'd probably be wiped out. Of course, the real lesson is to just diversify, and internationally.
They have a low zero-day detection rate just because they want to avoid false positives like the plague -- a perfectly valid design choice for an anti-virus. There's a price that comes with the 92% industry average. I have never had MSE incorrectly flag anything, which is much better than I can say for other AV packages.

No rule against using insects to feed pigs or other animals.

Then just make it easy to get max-stat stuff, like Guild Wars (1) did. People will still grind high-level zones just to get rare skins for items.

Considering he was living with 6 other young women, maybe it was tongue in cheek?
Or maybe most people, especially facebook users, don't block ads.

The point is that if the computers on a modern military plane go down, so does the plane (or at least becomes useless in combat and a sitting duck).

It's not science. Science is about making predictions in the real world. Statistics is the mathematics of uncertainty, essentially.
How can you understand the statistics behind continuous random variables without a knowledge of calculus?
