It may surprise you to learn that this hasn't been the sole discovery in the history of astrophysics. It's the latest in a long list of discoveries, putting everything we've seen together gives us a good picture of how the universe works.
If you read the scientific paper you will find that kind of discussion. If you read the news stories about science, you will find a lot more of the sensationalism. Scientific papers are about developing objective truth, scientific journalism is about getting people to click that link and getting the ad impressions.
You know, that reminds me of what I did this weekend. I thought it might be nice to drive up to Dallas for the weekend. I got in my car and I started driving, I saw a sign that said Dallas and had an arrow, so I followed it. After driving a few more miles there was another sign that told me that Dallas was straight ahead, I set my cruise control and kept going. In another few miles there was another sign telling me Dallas was straight ahead, and there were more and more signs along the road, all telling me the same thing. After driving a couple hundred miles I'd seen so many signs telling me that Dallas was up ahead, but I never once saw Dallas itself. I figured that Dallas probably isn't real and turned around and went home.
Sounds like you'd benefit if TPTMBG listened to Nidi. If your company is putting out quality equipment on time and on budget, then they'd benefit immensely from their competitors being blacklisted after not delivering to spec.
Well, in 14 years when all the patents expire everyone else will be able to make generic versions and it'll take off. Or did you expect them to do a bunch of research for free?
It's hard enough to find good people willing to put up with what it takes to be a politician as it is. I can only imagine the kind of freak shows we'd get if we started imposing those conditions.
Well, I was thinking something along those lines. Of course your error in this case is thinking that racing conditions are applicable to regular road driving.
If I had more money I'd be doing something similar on a motorcycle but until then I must content myself with the 30-minute sessions at the local track.
Because we all know that Scott Adams is a completely serious writer, and only presents the most logically complete and fully thought out ideas to the general population?
The issue with spam is that it is so cheap that even incredibly low rates of return can still be profitable. Like one in a million rates of return, or even the prospect of one day getting a single hit.
Classic creationist misconception. Evolution doesn't trend toward perfection, it trends toward "good enough." Unless it reduces your ability to reproduce it doesn't get evolved away. Even if it does reduce your ability to reproduce, but only a little bit, it can still take a long time to slowly go away, and will usually hang around until the next extinction level event.
I think it's largely about how seriously you take yourself. You can dress up in a fursuit as long as you do it at the appropriate times and for the appropriate reasons.

Now I'm picturing you giving Rupert Murdoch a rimjob. I'm disgusted, yet faintly aroused.
There are other terms you could use to define an organization based around an ideology, religion has a more specific meaning necessitating the God.

He's using Siri, obviously.
No one's preventing you from moving to a neighborhood with better connectivity.
And gas goes bad if you leave it sitting for too long.
Didn't they try that, but it failed because fish came from all around to eat it, turning it all straight back into CO2?

You know her(?) first name, that she was married, and for how long she was married? Get the fuck off /.!
Although I always though Gorillas was more fun.

I'm another person who can't understand how a person would happily work unpaid overtime. Would you explain it to us?

That would be pretty awesome.
So what you're telling us is that you're an idiot...

No-one ever expected to make money from NASA. They do from Ponzi schemes.

Dude, it's been in common use for 100 years, you're a little late.
