Somebody else *does* own $MyName.com. Somebody who works in the same field as me, and could easily be confused for me by a Google search, which is actually directly harmful to my own job prospects (as opposed to Ron Paul, whose supporters are using it to rally support for him as a politician). But I'm not crying foul to the UN.
I voted for Jill Stein, only because I knew my state was going for Obama anyways. I, too, support ending foreign engagements and shrinking our military, and I know that neither major-party candidate was likely to do that this time around. But Jill Stein wasn't going to win, and would have needed a big boost to even hit the magic 5% number. If I had participated in national political campaigning, I would have supported Obama.
I say that Obama is the lesser of two evils because I am able to perceive an actual and real difference between him and Mitt Romney. (Hint: Look at their social policies.) For you, maybe Romney would have been the better choice. But to say that anyone who votes or campaigns pragmatically (knowing that they are one vote in a sea of many) is responsible for murdering children, when no (legal) action they could have taken would have changed that result? That's an incredibly simplistic view.
If these programmers' work was actually influential in the election's outcome (I doubt it, but for the sake of argument...) then they share in the responsibility for every additional man, woman, and child who will be murdered in the next four years. They could have chosen to work for one of the peace candidates, but declined to.
Everyone with their head on straight knew back in 2008 that the winner of 2012 was going to be either Barack Obama or whoever the Republicans backed, barring some unprecedented public outcry. If they worked for Gary Johnson, Jill Stein, or some other candidate, the odds of a Romney win would have increased,while doing nothing to increase the odds of their actual preferred candidate winning.
There's something to be said for making a living wage while working to avoid the greater of two evils.

Battletoads, sure, but I beat Super C (about as hard as Contra, which I didn't play) without dying when I was around eight years old. No game genie or Konami code required.:b
TFA makes it clear that it was a difference in this gene that _started_ the divergence, between 6 and 1 million years ago. TFS makes it sound like flipping one gene would produce chimpanzees rather than humans.
I just wonder how this will play out in the civil courts, with the fact that in CA, burglars have gotten compensation because they tripped and fell in the victim's house.
It's still a lower profit than they would have made if their costs hadn't gone up. Even if they offer a two-for-one iPhone special (which they could just as easily have offered before the cost hike).
I'm not really sure what kind of crazy logic you're using. Companies spending money infighting = higher costs = lower profit margins. Otherwise this would be a *good* thing for them (and they would negotiate to pay the highest possible price).
I'm not advocating this, but it's simple enough to do this with, say, automatic git hooks (pre commit, reformat the code, on checkout, format it back how you like it). No extra work on the developer's part.
Enteric coatings are designed to release in the small intestine, whereas C diff lives in the colon. According to some conversations which a doctor I work with (who primarily focuses on C diff), it is difficult to get a pill that lasts until the colon, dissolves there, and has enough content of whatever treatment method you're trying.
But they provide support for very few of those cell phones - only the ones they sell directly, correct? There's a large difference between working with a manufacturer to provide software and supporting customer service for hardware units.

You might think he has some crazy ideas, but his primary idea is that people should not be able to force their ideas on you at the point of a gun.
Exactly - I've never met a political candidate more pro-gun control than Ron Paul.
It would be a hypocritical reversal if you had previously been calling for LA to opt out of having a police department entirely.
Because their programs are so slow to begin with, they can't handle any slowdown. /snarky
Athiest here, but I wanted to say: faith in something unprovable does not make you a liar.
I know this is slashdot, but try reading the second sentence, hun.

You mean, like a live internet broadcast - something a little like exactly what they had in the tournament?
When was the last time you saw a train leave the rails without crashing?

Microsoft was doing this before it was cool!

This makes perfect sense - Apple gets paid to promote Windows 8, and thus Microsoft wants to buy it.

20% of $10 = $50?
What is with people's math today...

I haven't used it for Java, but I find Tagbar http://majutsushi.github.com/tagbar/ to be quite nice.

1987 - 1973 > 20 ???
Good point, I did forget that. I wonder if they're leaning on Motorola's previous experience for this.

Ah, thanks for the info. :)
