well, since you mention it, yes, ideally, you'd have full demographic data, but that's not how information is currently disseminated.
in reality, people are influenced by marketing. yes, some people have an iphone because it's an iphone, not because they need a smart phone; if apple folded, they wouldn't go buy an android. similarly with the prius; for some people, it's a symbol.
the simple fact that the proportion was different in a particular subgroup should be enough to consider piecing them out.
no, those are the neocon founders and élites. canhasdiy was referring to their dupes; the kind of people who can simultaneously claim to worship both jesus and ayn rand while understanding neither.
the thing is, particles aren't out there to trick us (or so we've been thinking for the past few centuries, and there's no much reasonable doubt of this). their uncertainty is "known" (sort of), and as long as you sample with the right kind of distribution of starting configurations, you're fine.
however, in this case they are basically saying "whenever rybka thinks a branch is hard enough, there is no way to win at that branch, and we know there's no way to win because rybka can't win." well, uh, yeah.
i'm sure rybka is very strong and this guy is probably better than me at chess, mathematics, and programming, but this "proof" is, shall we say, a bit solipsistic.
i did this once by accident; i had a playstation 2, some miscellaneous electronics and a gallon bottle of liquid soap bundled together in my soft-sided carry-on. it was very old, so the zipper was sticky.
when i picked up my suitcase, i found that it had been razored open, with clothes drooping out of the sides which had been loosely taped back together with official TSA tape.
it's technically a bot, but one written by a crazy person.
specifically, it's from a divination app packaged into LoseThos, a 64-bit hobby OS written by a schizophrenic man on orders from god himself. it really has to be seen to be believed.
yes, it's stupid. no, it's not a ban; it's just part of a spec sheet on ordering standardized tests. it's also relatively, if not completely, harmless. this cannot necessarily be said of standardized testing in the first place.
it's sillier to get into a froth over this, than it is for it to have happened in the first place. there is no slippery slope. this doesn't affect learning in any way.
darkness at noon is fine, but when i later found out that koestler was an apologist for lysenkoism (as in his bio of kammerer), i lost a lot of respect for him.
i have such a background. i've never heard the term decimate used except in ee, where it doesn't (necessarily) refer to removing 1/10th. it's certainly not a term a mathematician (being a master of abstraction) would use.
are you really this stupid? the antecedent (or, strictly speaking, anaphor) of your example is "a non-standard data cable," and that's why 100% of replies so far have expressed misunderstanding.
a comma doesn't mean "the following example will be of the opposite of what i said," nor does it mean "read the following as what i meant to write."
an interesting claim from someone who advocates using the ammo box "starting now" to defend liberty. maybe he already ranted about; voted against; and sued google, and is just taking the next step in protesting google's data retention policies?
if you compare the calories of eggs and bacon to, say, a muffin or scone, you might be surprised. eating eggs, especially boiled or poached, actually gets kind of unpleasant at the 400 calorie mark... even bacon (crispy) is only ~50 calories a slice.

The Laser Unprinter

if the laser could burn naked white reflective paper, it would also definitely char the paper under the toner, which it doesn't.
the inkjet print is a good point though (i suspect it wouldn't actually burn, but it definitely wouldn't "unprint"); also, highlighting and pencil/ballpoint annotations, the use of which is a major reason for printing a doc out in the first place. this is not to mention the issues with feeding used paper in high volumes. the laser printer in my office jams several times a day even on pristine stock.

smells like juche spirit.
yeah, that's the thing. pixels=expensive and the wide screen uses up a lot of desk space.
oh well, won't be a grad student forever anyway.
what ducman said; also, the idea is to have a primary display for working and a fullscreen document for reference on the rotated 4:3 secondary.
as i said, it's a niche application, but i'll miss it once my 4:3 dies.
the thing is, a big enough 4:3 monitor, rotated, is almost perfect for displaying an entire US letter (3.88:3) or A4 (4.24:3) document.
ah well, it's not a concern to most, and i guess tablets are now filling that niche.

but he did as he was meant to: plumb the waters with some outrageous-sounding statements.
now, the R machine knows exactly how far they can push social conservatism with their serious contender, the nexus-6 model Mitt Romney.
you know, they told you the overall rate too... it's up to you whether to think that part of the appeal of a prius is the image.
it just seems silly to me, to complain about extra information; 35% is also pretty damned low.
eh, it's a fair cop. the modding, that is.
on certain days i fucking hate the world and abuse my mods just to watch this place burn. and yet i still get, on average, at least 10 a week.
good cause is a relative standard.

it does if you don't define the sigma-algebra and probability measure, which he didn't, because it would be pointless to try.
sorry, tired; i meant checked baggage, not carry-on.

it's funny in retrospect.

so, once we finish privatizing the military and the judicial system, this distinction will become irrelevant? i guess that's a solution.

i think you missed the point. recall that a significant portion of slashdot would opt to abolish the federal government entirely.
