The agenda of the article is spelled out pretty quickly in the second paragraph:
"Forty percent of work place injuries are attributed to carpal tunnel syndrome. We should sue computer makers and mouse makers! Make these horrible input devices illegal! Right? "
How much you wanna bet that the major funders of this research were somehow related to computer makers and mouse makers?
What reason would there be to delete something other than due to duplication? If it's wrong, fix it. Other than being 100% made up with no basis either in reality or even in unreal popular opinion. I can't see something as being worthy of deletion.
Isn't the point of a wiki that if it's lacking then someone else can improve it? I can understand moving the information if it is miss titled or removing it and pointing to another article that already covers the subject. If you don't like it or don't believe it than correcting it should be the next step not deleting it.
Just about everything I've looked up on Wikipedia in the last month has been someone's personal view with no facts to sustain it. As a starting point for research, I can't even say it's a good idea because things are stated as fact that are personal observation (anecdotes) or opinion, and that can quickly taint your view of whatever you are searching and lead you down a bad path.
First part of being a good researcher is knowing that everything is a "personal observation (anecdotes) or opinion." Fact is little more than a personal observation (anecdotes) or opinion that has an acceptable amount of evidence to convince most that it is likely true. One statement I have always hated has been "It's a proven fact." Nothing is ever a "proven fact." It may have a series of personal observations and anecdotes that are consistent enough to be accepted and useful to further research. But that just means it hasn't been dis-proven yet.
And yes, I am stating this as fact although it is merely my own personal observation and/or opinion. I stated this way helps convince others to share it with me. The world may go a bit smoother.
There are Lies, Damn Lies, and things stated as fact.
SCO actually had an interesting reverse method for doing this. It had no way to tell if things dependencies have been started, but if you know nothing depends on a startup service you could enter it with P##service rather than S##service. This would spawn the startup and move on to the next one.
I'm sure they had a patent on the mechanism or something but it sure seemed like a pretty quick and easy way to tune a system to run faster.
Maybe you missed some history lessons but the US isn't bringing peace ot he middle east by "Starting a war." The US is merely attempting to bring peace by getting involved in a several thousand year old war. Ohh, I forgot you Americans like to try to take credit for everything. Yea, this is "Your war."
Solaris tools - specific to Solaris, good interpretation of Posix standard, and mostly consistent across releases
GNU tools - ubiquitous across nearly all OSs, good interpretation of the Posix standard plus usability extensions, and nearly identical across all releases and platforms
I think for space combat you'd want to simulate a banked turn anyway so that the pilot is pulled down into his chair rather than being thrown against the sides of the cockpit. Just add the appropriate thrusters on the bottom of the ships hull then when turning make sure that you tilt the craft.
For the expansion of the human race. You do realize that is the #1 purpose of life right? It has been life's purpose from the beginning to expand into places that it isn't. You can try to add feelings into it and family and children or what ever, and they may even be the most important thing in "your" life, but it has nothing to do with life as a whole.
Yea Columbus should have just put a message in a bottle and pitched it in the ocean and waited for a message from India to come back.
Sure there is a lot to learn from unmanned probes there is a lot more to learn from getting people there. It's nice to know what kind of rocks are on Mars, but what use is that information if we are not planning, building and populating some form of human habitat or settlement. Probes are great to satisfy the gee-wiz part of science but to be useful someone has to be able to go there.
Maybe I'll use your theory and ask my soon to be wife that instead of going on a honey moon somewhere it'd be much cheaper to just look at it through google earth. I really doubt there'll be any probes launched with that one.

Not to mention the round trip time it's going to take for data to get back and forth over this link.
They claim to be a more accurate, less up to date, tiny subset of Wikipedia with Ads.
1 our of 4 isn't much of a business model I don't think.
The analogy is more like buggy whip manufactures should just find a way to make a buggy whip that will help a horse drawn cart achieve highway speeds.
No. no. That's the Tick in "That Mustache Feeling"
great episode.

what's the old saying?
"Any sufficiently good fiction is indistinguishable from fact."
Other than it shatters your preconceived notion of free will?

As opposed to the rest of the world, which is factual and unbiased.
there fixed it for you

It makes the image 2d rather than 3d.
This new learning intrigues me. Explain to me again how sheep's bladders can be employed to prevent earthquakes.
MY GOD!!! What are you doing!?! I said, "Stick it in your borehole."
Now go wash that off.

Is that the "special ed" answer?
We're going to catch up to the rest of the class by going slower.
I don't think any technologies have ever caught up by just waiting. Perhaps we should actually work on them instead.
What do you mean by "useful"? Useful for what?

"Truth and information rarely come from corporate controlled media."
As apposed to that that we get from government controlled media? I'm not sure what you're implying here or where truthful information comesfrom.
