Obviously I don't want to work at a company that has complete morons making hiring decisions, so no I really don't care that I failed your interview questions.
How is that "not entirely true", given it's exactly what I said? (aside from not going into the pretty much irrelevant to the point details of the aging process).
Because they aren't as expensive to make and reasonably easily replicated by someone else who will sell it cheaper?
Take your $500 bottle of scotch. It's probably aged for 25 or 30 years. So if I decided to make a competitor it would take me 25 years from when I started to bring it to market. And on every one of those 25 years I'd have to decide "I won't sell it all this year and make some money to pay the bills, I'll instead age it some more".
Though I suspect the real answer is that wine and whiskey snobbery are off the charts. A $500 bottle of wine is quite possibly nicer than a $25 bottle of wine - it's not $475 nicer though. Wine just happens to be a luxury good that people use to show off wealth and hence the wealthy will spend a lot of money on it just so that everyone knows they have a lot of money. Beer doesn't have that status and hence people won't pay such ridiculous sums for it.
That doesn't mean that "premium" beer isn't much better than "non-premium" beer. In fact it's a great thing for people who happen to like "premium" beers.
Because you had never heard of it until you saw it on whatever pirate games source you use? And would never have heard of it let alone bought it if it wasn't there for downloading?
In fact you probably still don't know how much it costs or that there is a demo after playing the pirate version for a little while and finding it's not your cup of tea. You do count on the pirated the game side of the ledger though.
None of that matters. Government size is determined by government spending, not by the level of taxation (thus the US government is much larger than tax receipts would indicate due to it using debt to fund spending). As a percentage of GDP is the normal way to compare since countries are different sizes.
Sure the US is very likely in a worse state than Denmark, but that doesn't magically mean Denmark has a smaller government.
1. Circles are flat. (sure the Hebrew word also applies to spheres, but it still applies to 2 dimensional circles and hence isn't useful in your claim).
2. Congrats on finding some stupid scientists 400 years ago, who somehow hadn't heard Pythagoras and also somehow missed that the world had been circumnavigated in 1522.
Given the orders of magnitude and error bars involved and that the temperature at the core is all theory in the first place, ice-cold is far to precise.
Just use absolute-zero cold.
The temperature of the surface of the sun is smaller than the error bounds on our theories about the the temperature of the core. Thus if you are comparing them you might as well treat the surface temp as 0 and save a subtraction...
Except it isn't emailing anything, and it isn't a random mail from something you've never heard of - it's from a company you've ordered things from who already know your email address is good (heck they already have you credit card number).
You mightn't like it but the Law of Return is a simple fact, and hence being Jewish changes your options and thus is an important bit of information to know when discussing those options with someone.
He didn't imply magical powers, he implied that Israel is considered good at spying. That Mossad probably has someone inside google seems a pretty safe assumption to me. That they would risk them to read some random email account is getting into paranoid territory though.
If you checked the box "please send me a daily postcard" when you ordered from a mail order catalog, then yes you can't call it junk mail. You now, like you did with a newegg order at some point.
You could try clicking the "Manage your e-mail subscriptions" or "unsubscribe" links on any of those emails to and tell them you've changed your mind about getting mail from them, but whining on slashdot is probably more fun I guess.
A rotor that isn't a tiltrotor or mounted on a tiltwing?
Sure, usually you'd just say "rotor" but when talking about the domain where a tiltrotor is one of the most well known techniques they might have felt the need to make a distinction.
I feel for the parents of these 4700 children, many of whom will not get the help they need...
Sorry, if a 15 days birth date error on your birth certificate would change you from "gifted" to "not gifted" then clearly it's a complete farce and there's no "help they need".
That he was far to close was clear from the first frame. Surely everyone knows that some types of fertilizer make for great bombs - there have been pretty famous real world examples and it's used in every tv/movie about terrorists (well aside from the ones that pretend nukes are easy to get and use).
The Oklahoma City bombing obliterated about a third of a reinforced concrete building. With fertilizer that fit into a 20ft rental truck. I would assume a fertilizer factory has significantly more fertilizer in it, though not arranged to optimize an explosion or primed with detonators/etc one would hope...
Are you crazy? A huge explosion somewhere in America, that killed and wounded people. Have you not heard of the cable news channels, or something?
They need to fill 24 hours of airtime each day when on most days about 15 minutes of newsworthy shit happens. Sure they just repeat the same recorded reporting over and over but even that doesn't fill all the time. If it wasn't for the Boston bombing they'd be giving this even more press since their big name reporters wouldn't be up in Boston discussing 5 seconds of video footage for the 152nd time.

I think you are missing the correct topic.

I'm pretty sure when I chill water to drink on 40C summer days, hiding unpleasant flavors does not play any part in my reasons for doing so.
And surely the point is anyone who got a D- in science would know that if evaporation cools things down, then condensation must warm things up.

Because the sex is completely irrelevant to the point being made.
Why do you care so much which set of genitals the kid has?
Because you had never heard of it until you saw it on whatever pirate games source you use? And would never have heard of it let alone bought it if it wasn't there for downloading?

Which is irrelevant to the obvious point that this particular item says nothing about whether apache sucks or not.
But sure, tit's not the most ignorant statement that's been posted on slashdot, it's at the top end of the list though.

Then use 1 and save a division.

Sure, and when they see the amazingly blank email account they're fre to take that as suspicious and not let you in.
If you have no friends or don't use email then don't look Arab while trying to enter Israel.

No his using the common comparison for "big" when it comes to explosions.
It's pretty like, however thinking it exploded because it as on fire is not "precisely" knowing the cause.
When it was built it was. But people love to sprawl, and apparently don't mind living next to industrial sites prone to exploding.
Are you crazy? A huge explosion somewhere in America, that killed and wounded people. Have you not heard of the cable news channels, or something?
