I think maybe you're on the wrong website, you don't seem to be interested in new discoveries. You might be happier with a site which concentrates on something like "new products coming out this year."
Many of us enjoy reading about new discoveries, knowing that not every promising new discovery will lead instantly to a mass marketed product. (If it ever does.) Every time there's a story about research on improving solar panels or battery efficiency there's always people complaining that they never see these things coming to market, ignoring the steady improvements that we see in both over time. For every story about improving ranges of electric vehicles there's someone who says it's useless because it doesn't meet their use case.
If you really are an old guy think about all the progress you've seen in your lifetime. It didn't happen all at once, but we've sure come a long way. My first computer had 48 kb of ram, 5 1/4" floppies as the only storage, and I used a Model 33 Teletype as a printer. It was a home built Southwest 6800, for those old enough to know what that was.
They are only setting limits for the event they are running. The reason is to avoid having women being required to dress in a certain manner in order to get paid. They are running the event, they can set the rules for the event.
If I showed up and set up a stand to sell popcorn and they said no, does that mean that they're denying people the right to earn a living?
If a man showed up wearing only a Tarzan loincloth and was told that was not appropriate would it be fair to say that now they're denying men the right to dress as they like?
Don't forget that he did have to pay for the two wars that Bush had put on the credit card. With the economy already in flames from the 2008 financial crisis. In case you missed that.
Ok, so let's continue with that logic. If someone first jabs them with a pin then they will have no problem with someone stabbing them with a knife because they've been "inoculated" against stabbing.
Maybe they should use their "logic" to understand that one has been proven to be effective, the other has not.
It's misleading to say that Hyland's won't recall their product - they quit selling in the US months ago
Do you have any idea what the word recall actually means? That they have stopped selling the product says absolutely nothing about whether or not they have issued a recall.
The only thing misleading is your statement. I suspect you are either clueless or deliberately confusing the issue. Either way I would not trust any thing else that you say.
the first two-term President who was at war fior every day of his two terms
I know right! I just couldn't believe how he invaded both Iraq and Afghanistan on his first day in office! And all the excuses about WMDs that Obama made up for invading Iraq. That was a really impressive first day in office for Obama.
By the way, so far Trump has been at war for every day he's been in office too. So yeah, risks of wars sounds like a valid worry about Trump.
A local grocery store started putting out some specially marked bins of free fruit for kids to snack on while their parents are shopping. They had bananas and oranges. They were not large, but they were good quality, it's not like the store was giving away fruit that no one would buy. I have no idea how much they've given away.
Cows and pigs are not furry and cute. And more importantly, there are no funny cow/pig videos on YouTube. (Well, there probably are some, but nowhere near the number of kitten videos.) Have you ever seen a cow or pig say "I can has cheezburger?"
But that's not a reasonable comparison to make. How many more years have those other companies had to set up those assembly lines? Maybe try comparing Tesla's production rate with another 13 year old car company. (Or compare Tesla's numbers to what those other companies did in their 13th year.) And don't forget that Tesla is making a new type (electric) of car. And before you say electric cars aren't new, how do those other companies' production numbers for electric cars compare to Tesla's numbers?
I'm tempted to just reply: I'm not sure if there is such a thing as a slashdot user with user id "sinij"...
Click on the link I included, read what it says. If you don't like that, try searching for "attempted assault" and see what comes up. (If you actually exist. I'm not sure if you do exist~)
I never claimed that he did have a seizure, I pointed out that your argument was not a reasonable one, i.e. your lack of seizure is not proof that he did not have one.
Maybe you calling him a liar was not intended to be read as a conclusion of the the previous statement - but that's how I read it. And maybe you read my comment as me implying that he did in fact have a seizure, when I never said that. I merely said that by your logic, since I'm not epileptic I can say that you must be lying when you say you are.
Whether or not he is a "lying <your choice of offensive term here>" is irrelevant to the point I made. If you have some reference that would explain to me how all epileptic people respond exactly the same to every stimulus I'd be happy to read it.
According to this site some places would say that the attempt is assault with actually hitting being "battery," while others would call it "attempted assault."
Think of it as being like "attempted murder." Being a bad shot and missing doesn't absolve you of wrong doing.
Applying your sort of logic: I am not an epileptic. Therefore you are a lying scumbag.
Or just maybe, different people are different, and can have different reactions. Maybe you as an epileptic might even know that there are different kinds of epilepsy.
I submitted the article. I completely agree with what you say. I did mention the idea that the definition of babies being "too large" might be changing due to cesarean becoming more routine. And I agree this seems to be happening too fast.
What I considered really interesting was the question: if cesarean became the normal method of delivery for an extended period of time (many generations) could humans end up at a point where natural birth was not possible?
they can't hurt you IF YOU CHOOSE to not let the words hurt you
True. But that's easier said than done and many people who know the rhyme still are hurt by name calling and criticism, even if they have "chosen" not to be.
The issue there is privacy, you shouldn't be putting personally identifiable info online
You don't need to put any personal information online to be subject to abuse. If you post anything anywhere where people are allowed to comment on it, you can be subject to negative comments. You've posted anonymously. I could still have been offended by your comment and gone off on a rant and started calling you names. If you checked back to see if anybody had replied to your comment you would see that. If you are completely immune to such attacks, that's great. I suspect that quite a few people are not.
I also avoid putting personally identifiable info online because of concerns like what potential future employers might think of my personal views.
Thankfully I've never been attacked with sticks and stones. And you can't be attacked with sticks and stones through the internet.
But contrary to the old saying, names can and frequently do hurt, as they are intended to do. And calling people names and any other sort of verbal abuse is very easy online. Likely much easier than it is in real life since you don't even have to see the person you are abusing.
At the same time online abuse may in some ways be less painful or threatening since your abuser is not present. A threat to do physical harm is much scarier when the person is actually right in front of you. However the sheer number of people online means you will probably be subject to much more such abuse online than in person.
On of the great things about the internet is that it can connect you to all sorts of wonderful resources. Unfortunately it also connects you to every abusive, vile, stupid (etc. etc.) person anywhere on the planet.

Sounds like a very reasonable claim considering that the president that the American people elected is doing exactly what he promised he would do.

It certainly is weird. Reading things like this is literally killing me. It's even worse then people saying their are to many grammar nazis.

Seems to fit nicely under fear. I'm afraid that if I don't pay you then I'll never get my files back.

Come on! Random girl number 4528913 is pretty good. She is super Hot!
Wait, sorry, I was thinking of random girl number 452891*4*. You should definitely check her out.

It might be evolution, however it is not evolution by natural selection.

There's an interesting TED Talk about our microbial colonies by Rob Knight, He talks about the "clean" via cesarean issue you mention.
True. But that's easier said than done and many people who know the rhyme still are hurt by name calling and criticism, even if they have "chosen" not to be.

I never tweeted that. Anyone who says I did is wrong!! and a complete liar.
A constant? You mean as opposed to the very variable number 1000?
Show people they're not capable of mind control? Hopefully nobody smart enough to realize how ridiculous that statement is, is a conspiracy nut.
Look, there's no "X" in this room. See, we've proved that we don't have "X".
