If you did the exact same study with Superman, you'd certainly not find his "story power" has been increasing. In the early comics he was the sole hero, so he'd be getting perfect scores for all those.
Perfect score? You really think Superman was the only Golden Age Hero too?
Lets assume you're correct and Superman would have got the Perfect Score of 35 because he was the only hero. This assumes that all the characters were put on a scale, and ranked from best to worst. This would imply that 18 would be the median score meaning that the modern day score of 22.5 implys ether a favoritism towards women, or that it's reached equilibrium, but since the measurement error wasn't given in the article that makes it fairly difficult to ascertain.
However if you had bothered to read the article you'd know that's not what she did, and would still need the male score in order to extract any meaning at all. As for Superman and talking about the abstract "important issues" there is clear power creep between Silver Age stories with Fat Superman to the more serious Modern Area with Infinite Crisis. It's the problem with the Slapstick 60's and the slow methodical March to the age of Miller.
Franklin Richards? He's beyond an Omega Level Classification according to Celestial. Given he can Create Galactius out of a thought, or a whole new universe, he'd give Squirrel Girl a run for her money, but any of the Omega Levels would because pissing any of them off is an instant reboot switch Marvel has built in. Squirrel Girl has yet to exhibit any Universe rewriting abilities.
I could do the exact same analysis on Superman and find the exact same result that over time his powers have inflated. Power Creep is a well known issue in comics. The score of 12.2 in the 60's to 22.5 for female characters today is absolutely meaningless without the corresponding male character scores.
When I read that people with aspergers tend to become excessive video game addicts, and that aspergers is more common in men ranging from 2 to 1 to 4 to 1 I need something a little more meaty when someone makes a claim that Video Games are creating a masculinity crisis. How about aspergers patents are creating a bias in your sample, and that a more acceptable explanation of your results because your "symptoms" of the video game masculinity crisis are oddly identical to aspergers.
Procurement? Why would you fire the messenger? That guy was told to buy them. This very thing tried to happen here in Idaho, and it would have been the State Legislature, and elected Lun Super Independent bought off by the company's that wanted the money. But the voters rebelled and repealed the Luna Laws. If only we could rebel long enough to get people in that don't do this nonsense.
I agree with some of what you're pointing out, but I still have to disagree. A lot of people still don't get Math, but we have it as a core class anyways. Mostly because unless we have everyone try it we only find the small percentage that actively sought out Math. The people who may have had the aptitude for it in their Teens that didn't encounter it until their Mid Twenties are a bit past their prime to learn the higher end stuff. Some still do, but its definitely more difficult. Personally I think a CS credit should just be put into the Math as an option to go into CS or Calculus after they've done Algebra, and Geometry. I've yet to see a person who hates, or doesn't get Algebra that could code at all. I've seen people who couldn't do Algebra try, and they never do too well. If you don't get the abstractions of Algebra you'll fail at CS so it should be in the Core in the Math track.
Yea men working over time at twice the rate of women, and women working part time at twice the rate of men has absolutely nothing to do with the wage gap. Or maybe the census data the shows this is just wrong.
Because most of the traffic problems are a result of poor planning, like a real city, and not a result of heavy restrictions like SimCity. Sure it takes a while to create a proper interchange with all the correct on, and off ramps. Well a while until you figure out that all interchanges are a variation of a round about with some pieces removed and an over pass. Too much traffic is a good indication of not enough Interchanges, or connectors. Each industrial area requires its own interchange, or you're looking at an actual traffic nightmare. Just think about the city you live in, and how many highway connectors you have, and what each connector gets you to. Many cities have a highway connector just for their major mall. Don't make huge industrial areas because a single connector wont be able to service them all.
What Simcity got right was all the window dressing. Asteroids, Alien Invasions, Zombie Apocalypse were all decent. However, the basics were utterly flawed. The restrictive play size was a huge issue, and then end game goals being set so that there was no feasible way to accomplish them. It was impossible to get the max population needed for all the unlockables, and have a functioning city. Most of that could be tracked back to the over restrictive play field that forced you to build way too close to make functional traffic. When a real city has to do that they have other tools to make it work that were missing. One way streets would have made a big dent in how things function. You can't make a functional interchange without one way roads. It's not possible. You'll just create a traffic jam if you do. The most annoying bug in Simcity was how much a failure the bus system was. I had perfectly functioning cities that went to mass unemployment after adding a bus system. The buses failed to get people to work on time so consistently that they'd lose their job, then their home, and then I'm swimming in homeless. Remove the bus system and the problem slowly fixed itself. How does a real city address this problem? Buses have routes that go from A to B. Hit a central Hub so the rider can go from B to C. Skyline has bus routes, and though I'm still fiddling with it to figure out how to make it work well it's head and shoulders above dropping down bus stops in hopes that the busses don't pick people up and go in a loop around the block 5 times because 1 person wen't to the previous bus stop so it has to turn around and pick them up. They missed the bus, and can get the next one unless you have no routing system, and you're going with the closest bus stop with people algorithm.
For having a vastly inferior collection of window dressing. (I kinda miss the zombie attacks). Lack of a Day Night Cycle(days just go by too fast). The base game of Skylines is rock solid. I'm sure the modders will put some of the stuff I miss back in. In the mean time I'm just having fun making a functional Highway network.
I do miss some of the research unlockables too. Getting unlockables by simply having a large enough population seems unforfilling. I liked having to research the advanced tech at the university.
I'm fairly sure the Placebo Effect is effective. If it wasn't we wouldn't have an issue with it in medical studies. Who am I to take away someones perfectly functioning Placebo by convening them it's not actually doing anything? Also there are medications that are less effective than the placebo effect for some people. Some people are just far more susceptible to it. Good for them. They can feel better as long as they think they're doing something that'll make them feel better. Much harder to pull off that trick when you know where the man behind the curtain is. As long as we're not talking about the nuts who do Homeopathy in spite of an effective medical treatment being available.
How any anyone say, or write, that refactoring doesn't make code easier to analyze or change, and then follow up with it can make it more maintainable? Also, who in the world ever though that refactoring would make code run faster?
The word has become broken. People think doxing means to revel someones identity to the public. The days of it meaning I've collected enough evidence to prove this anonymous identity is truly this man behind the curtain are done. It now means the information I posted for public view on Facebook being posted elsewhere for my enemies to see even though they could have just used a phone book. If you dislike the change blame Gamer Gate, and the Journalists who abused the word till it had a new meaning.
YouTube took it down, and put it back up once the director, and Saban came to an agreement. What they wanted was a clear indication that Saban had nothing to do with it, and to reduce the chance that children mistake it for their kid friendly version. The video is clearly parody, and mocks the premise of recruiting child warrior a la Africa Child Soldiers. Clearly the author of the summary is under the mistaken belief that Parody must be funny Ha Ha, and probably thinks Black Comedy/Dark Comedy has something to do with race.

I read your linked articles and I have little sympathy for the paranoid people who structure deposits in the belief they are avoiding taxes. To quote the first of your linked articles.
All of the money came from paychecks, he said, but he worried that when he deposited it in a bank, he would be forced to pay taxes on the money again. So he asked the bank teller what to do.
The teller was wrong, and should be fired, for telling him about how to avoid the reporting, and I don't have sympathy for anyone who's intention was to circumvent the law even if they wouldn't have had to pay taxes on it anyways.
You haven't read the MMO patent, or any of the other child like patents, have you. Patents like those are very non-specific to the point were they couldn't be used to build the system they claim to have invented.
It's just a bad summery of the data. It's that half fall below the 92% rate for herd immunity. Not that half are below average, and even then you'd be making the mistake of assuming that the Average is Normally distributed because that's the only time the Average is supposed to equal the Median other than by pure chance.
Really? South Carolina Public Schools vaccination rate is 98.1%, but for Private Schools it is 96.02% For New York public schools are 99% and private schools are 88%. So you really expect me to believe that there is no correlation at all with being rich enough to afford private school, and poor enough to be stuck in public school?
So if I create a fake facebook page for each of their inmates and have each of them auto update the status once a day then they'll never get out of jail?
Goto messes with readability and long term maintenance. Anyone who uses Goto is probably going to use it correctly. Otherwise you wouldn't use it. But you use it to construct loops, and functions which is unnecessary and illegible compared to every other option.
Yea, but targeting HS age girls to get them up to speed take 4 to 10 years to see if you have any payout. Fixing the drop out issue has an immediate effect in 2 years.

So theaters don't have to build an illegal cell phone jammer. Just put up a WiFi network to nothing, and crash every iPhone in the theater for you.
