Note: Android works on iPhones too, it's still buggy, but the DoD could help with that if they desired.
A smooth Android install on an iPhone? It seems like you've found something Apple would like even less than the DoD having access to the iPhone security stack.
I saw this a few days ago. Is this a meme? Pedantically speaking, Palin is is a queue of one (at least!) wherever she is.
Cue the responses. Might be time for Grammar Nazis and pendants to be hunted down like Apple and Google. Is there any room left in the Assange bunker?
Maybe I just don't understand the issue enough, but wouldn't a separate Government/Military/infrastructure internet be more viable and easier to implement on existing systems thus costing less? And if you really needed access to the public internet, you could control the points of entry and monitor them much easier and more effectively.
Are you being sarcastic? In any case, you've admirably and succinctly described the DoD's SIPRNet which is precisely a separate, government controlled Internet for classified information. There's also the NIPRNet, from which the public Internet is accessible.
Well, I am a math professor (although at a much lowlier school than Harvard) and I've never had a great opinion of in-class testing. The simple fact is that in the short duration of an in-class test you can't give the students substantive problems to work on. Thus, in-class tests (or any other short-duration timed test) is really an exercise in "how quickly can you work lots of relatively shallow problems..."
I had a math professor last quarter who had a poor opinion of in-class testing for exactly the reasons you mentioned, and who assigned problems which I felt were pretty difficult. I understand if you want to keep your anonymity, but you weren't by any chance my Topology professor this summer, were you?
I hate theocratic regimes (and Democratic presidents who kick puppies) just as much as the next person, but the problem with your "sample" is the same problem that comes with any online poll.
The problem, namely, is what is called study heterogeneity, or more colloquially, "your source sucks."
Since the beginning of time:
* Look, nuclear technology! Now I can radiate cancer and use PET scans.
* Look, nuclear technology! Now I can blow cities up...
I believe the first practical use of nuclear technology was, in fact, blowing a city up.
And (somewhat pedantically) trigonometry was used for navigation far before it was used to build or destroy bridges.
The article from which it looks like you drew your facts is here. Also quoted therein:
"Atheists are now eligible to run for any office in South Carolina, which means the provision against atheists is unenforceable."
The only defense I can offer for over a third of the South Carolina legislature voting not to overturn their anti-miscegenation laws is that, since the legislation was elected democratically, perhaps the constituents of South Carolina have exactly the kind of government they deserve.
These politicians are liberal and that is where the corruption abounds. (They are also known as RINOs).
I don't disagree that corruption is party-agnostic, but I take umbrage to terms like Republicrat or RINO that marginalise the centre right and left. They promote a "with us or against us" mentality that was famous with the United States' last president.
You're putting words into my mouth, Anonymous.:)
I didn't say it irritated be because it was stupid, but it does irritate me because I believe a 9 pin RS-232 port would work just as well without the need for the unusual cable.

we here in England seem to get most of our laws from you second-hand
As an American, I'm under the impression that it's largely the other way around. The American legal system owes a great deal to you.
NCIS has its egregious tech moments, but this one was, I think, the worst: NCIS - Double Hacking
As a serious question, would you zap the energy back to earth via microwave?
As a not-quite-as serious question, wasn't that one of the ways to fry your town in SimCity 2000?
A different OS "duplicates functionality."

In the US, it's comparatively rare to see a car (except the very very cheap or the very exotic) that isn't an automatic transmission.
A quick google search suggests that 16 percent of cars in the US are sold with manual transmissions. I'm not convinced this is "comparatively rare."
Victims my ass. Religionists started persecuting people as soon as they landed at Plymouth Rock.
You're about 1500 years late, and that's only with respect to Christianity.
Here's just a sample of their positions...

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice.....
Oh, I know this one.
"Fool me once, shame on, shame on you. Fool me, you can’t get fooled again."
Mac users are giant babbys.
But...how is babby formed?
That's "U.S. Customary" assloads...
Since it's a measure of mass, it could also (and perhaps more precisely) be avoirdupois assloads.

Stranger things have happened.
Such as?
If we lived in a true democracy (for the people), DRM would never exist
I'm not happy with DRM, but it bears to be said that a true democracy is two wolves and one lamb deciding what to have for dinner.
Now we can give Obama the Nobel prize for Chemistry and Physics as well!

But he didn't DO anythin... oh.
Ohhhhhh.

Have you examined that weird pinout they use for RS-232 on RJ-45 connectors? It's the combination of any 2 features that they do oddly.
You mean for their console cables? That irritated me to no end, but it's not as bad as the their DB-25 to proprietary 60 pin interface.
Because Canada is the 51st state. Not to mention America's hat.
Really? I always just called it North Montana.
I work at StatCounter and I would just like to point out that we have a very diverse sample size from around the world.
Respectfully, your numbers show quantity, but no guarantee of diversity. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Study_heterogeneity
Who the F*ck in the right mind fiddle something on SAN without confirming a full backup of all applications/databases?
Hopefully, somebody who'll be looking for a new job tomorrow. I wonder if T-Mobile will be hiring?
