Never have mod points when I really need them.
I've never seen people so terrified of the truth since.....well....hmmm....
I'd REALLY like to get a look at those Cheney Energy Task Force documents that they've been hiding from us for 10 years. I can hope that these will be leaked eventually.
Damages should be based on the amount of profits Oracle lost and SAP gained from the customers who left Oracle due to the infringement, Bob Mittelstaedt, SAP’s attorney, told the jury.
Ummm...no. Damages should also be based on some sort of "punishment" factor. I would think it is important to prevent companies from simply writing off illegal activities and paying off some trivial amount of money in the even they get caught.
A great disturbance in the Force as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
Why do you think "iFans" have no problem rationalizing this? Sure, a few may be attempting to rationalize this here... but they aren't doing a good job. I would suspect that the rest of them either find this a shitty reason to reject an app or just don't care.
Plus, this is a stupid reason to reject an app and will probably be overturned like many other stupid rejections have.
'cause if there's one thing I need, it's the ability to check my facebook account in addition to checking email on my blackberry, fiddling with my radio, arguing with my wife and entering coordinates into my GPS. While driving. Down the freeway at 80mi/hr.
..embracing color. Children's books and cookbooks? That's it? Really? What about textbooks? I can see significant increase in e-reader use for textbooks if they had color capability. Not every HS and college student is going to have the luxury of having a pad/slate device. Color provides an extra dimension of information without physical space, pretty useful IMO!
....of links that they've ripped off. http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=196994196748&topic=23238 Actually, many of the posted recipes on the profile have people replying with links to the original articles.
It looks like often times they are just swiping the entire article (not just the recipe) verbatim! Wow!
One never knows when one may want to sue Google over privacy concerns.
This is a good way for them to put a blanket over millions of potential future lawsuits.
the morons are the graphic designers that can't comprehend procedural logic, and the developers that won't be burdened by design implementation.
Let's change that to:
"I think the problem is that graphic designers don't do enough to understand procedural logic, and that developers don't go the extra mile to consider design implementation"
Isn't that better? No need to get people to waste perfectly good mod points to put your statement in the troll bin.
For my situation I would say "a lot more" based on the way I got my ass handed to me in the first year of grad school by the Indian, French and Chinese students.
The american students were at a clear and significant disadvantage here. Learning Galerkin's method for the first time while everyone else was treating it as a "refresher" sucked big time.
Now the irony is that I don't really use this stuff in my job now, but the fact still remains that these non-american students are at an advantage. Like it or not, the schools teaching engineering tend to focus on mathematics as an important subject (rightfully so!), so if your behind you peers....good luck to you! If you start off at a disadvantage in school, that tends to extend to the job market.
I see a strong correlation between aptitude in mathematics and numbers of H1B visas granted in the workplace. Is it the 'cause? Well who know's but i'd be willing to bet...

This post went from "Interesting" to "Flamebait" in 3.5 seconds!

Yes, but the difference is that Objective Ministries is a Parody website, whereas this Brazilian folks appear to be the real deal.
..my Mom knew how to use the internet!
...data all the time. I thought this was a feature. Even my non-techie wife knows what a "corrupt sparsebundle" is....
True. The elections are over. No need to mess with the colors right now.
...That starts in 1.5 hours. Looks like someone blew their load early.
I don't think NOTAMs are in local time

No, his issue is that his mom stays mad even after he stops playing Halo. His post is quite clear. It cannot be interpreted any other way.

See my reply to my reply above. I believe it's called "confirmatory bias" Maybe I should go into politics.

I wonder.... realistically, how does +/-10% really translate to the user experience?

Sounds like MS is in line with what Jobs has been saying for a quile now about HTML5
..is about a decimal place in which the instuments available to most of us can't even touch (precicion-wise...) But by all means, carry on.
