  1. Sounds unbelievable to me, any numbers to back it up?

  2. Re:No fun on Pressure Rises On German Science Minister In Plagiarism Scandal · · Score: 5, Funny

    I have been plagiarized once. This bitch had copied one of my articles I wrote in a proceedings of a conference, with pictures and everything, and used it in an overview article. The worst part of it is that my professor didn't care about it. I am still mad, and it happened 15 years ago.

  3. Re:State of the question on Pressure Rises On German Science Minister In Plagiarism Scandal · · Score: 5, Informative

    Funny, but fundamentally wrong. Copy and give credit = standard scientific proceeding. Copy and say it's yours = plagitism. It quite easy, really.

  6. Re:U.S. law still applies on File-Sharing For Personal Use Declared Legal In Portugal · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Portuguese citizens need to be reminded that they're still under the jurisdiction of U.S. law, and WILL be extradited to the U.S. for breaking any IP laws!

    This post contains dangerous levels of sarcasm and thus required by Poe's Law to have at least a single emoticon (smiley). The poster may be considered himself warned.

  7. Pick-up lines! on Robot Snakes To Fight Cancer Via Natural Orifice Surgery · · Score: 2

    I've got a biological snake that can cure cancer via natural orifices... ...if you know what I mean.

  8. Re:Russia's treatment to Pussy Riot on Feds Add 9 Felony Charges Against Swartz For JSTOR Hack · · Score: 4, Interesting

    With 97% of federal cases ending in plea bargain and again over 90% of the rest being won by the prosecution, you comment strikes me as a bit naive.

    And of cause does the US have a "hooliganism" law, for example in California http://www.shouselaw.com/disturbing-peace.html#overview .

  9. No! on Fusion Power Breakthrough Near At Sandia Labs? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    You know how it is...

  10. Re:Applies not only to religion on Science Wins Over Creationism In South Korea · · Score: 1

    An "Andromeda" reference! Glorious! A shame the show was canceled after a season and a half...

  11. Re:Light Table - Why it's Cool on Light Table IDE Finds Funding Success · · Score: 1

    How is this informative? This guy clearly doesn't know what he is talking about. PyDev (Plugin for Eclipse) gives you autocomplete since ages. You don't need static typing to be able to read out interfaces. IPython (interactive python extension) does it too. Or like pretty single one of these http://wiki.python.org/moin/IntegratedDevelopmentEnvironments . Hell, there even a VIM autocompletion plugin, if you are into that sort of stuff.

    As for differences, how about showing results of your program as you type? Or Method-based hierarchie instead of file-based one? Watch the intro video one more time, please.

  12. Re:Really? on In America, 46% of People Hold a Creationist View of Human Origins · · Score: 4, Insightful

    There is no evidence for the existence of god, point. There doesn't have to be an evidence for non-existence of something to rationally assume it doesn't exist. See Russel's teapot.

  13. Re:Cryptography? on Travelling Salesman, Thriller Set In a World Where P=NP · · Score: 1

    This was not my understanding until now, but you are obviously correct. Thanks!

  14. Re:Cryptography? on Travelling Salesman, Thriller Set In a World Where P=NP · · Score: 0

    NP can also take a well-defined amount of time, it is not the point of it. But you are absoluelly right, that factorisation algorithms do not have anything to do with P=NP, since the problem is not proven to be NP-complete.

    Not sure if troll or just stupid...

  16. ME3 gayness... on EA Defends Itself Against Thousands of Anti-Gay Letters · · Score: 1

    All this talk about a male/male option in ME3 and I never even found out who it supposed to be! Vega? The latino pilot? Garrus? xD

    What I want to say, if you don't look for it, you won't probably find it. It's not like you have to sleep with guys to get a perfect ending (a lot of masturbation a.k.a. Galaxy at War, but it's another matter).

    There are options for murder, genocide and (probably) jaywalking and having a possibility to romance a dude is their biggest problem?

    No the difference is - i don't have to use Google. And I don't even have to leave for another country to opt-out, unlike in the case of the goverment.

  21. Re:How many Amendments are left ? on Defendant Ordered To Decrypt Laptop Claims She Had Forgotten Password · · Score: 5, Insightful

    In any conflict of such an magnitude, where the US military is outnumbered, things like logistics, troop movements and proper command structure will play a MUCH more important role than what guns the each side has. You can't really argue that a rag-tag militia can compete with a trained army in these aspects.

    Now, guerilla warfare is a completelly different matter, of course.

  22. Re:Can't help but think on Anonymous Takes Down DOJ, RIAA, MPA and Universal Music · · Score: 5, Insightful

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montgomery_Bus_Boycott was the direct effect of Parks' protest and caused major finacial loses for the transportation system. Now, tell me how it is different from DDOSing the living shit out of **AA and friends?

    All those people who dare opposing unjust laws! They are just provoking an unreasonable response! The world would have been a much better place if that Rosa Parks had just sat in the back of the bus, like she was told.
