If you think that a bill piling expensive requirements on an industry is the perfect excuse to pile more expenses on that industry, then you may have a promising career ahead of you in Congress.
39. Have you ever experienced physical sexual harassment, unwanted sexual contact, or sexual contact in which you could not or did not give consent or felt it would be unsafe to fight back or not give your consent at an anthropological field site? (If you have had more than one experience, the most notable to you.)
The problem, again, is a terribly worded question. Are we to again assume physical should extend through the commas?
I don't see the leeway you do. "Sexual contact" is physical. There's simply no other way to read those two works used together.
As an analogous situation, imagine if the creation of (text)books was originally patented. The patent holder would then be able to ensure that any textbooks whose contents disagreed with him do not get published simply by denying a licence to the publisher for that book.
I really don't see how textbooks could be much more expensive or difficult to obtain than they already are.
to even less 'classroom discipline' [kids actually paying attention to the teacher], to the biggest one, chiefly even less social interaction between kids.
Sure, some kids can successfully learn this way, but not a lot.
Isn't most "classroom discipline" quashing all attempts at social interaction? You raise some odd concerns.
Even their e-paper based Kindles are pretty locked down (my wife has one) and it's relatively awkward to do anything other than buy stuff from Amazon with it.
It's still easier and more pleasant to read on e-ink than LCD.
A gigantic set of the population is no longer even used to the concept of wearing a watch, because they have their phone. This device doesn't replace their phone. What exactly is the reason to have this as well, as opposed to pulling your phone out of your pocket?
The phone is big and needs to be unlocked to view texts/emails. I started wearing a watch again after 10 years without because I got tired of pulling my (dumb) phone out of my pocket. It's also a way for people who wish to be seen using Apple products to be seen using Apple products.
Comparing PS and Bash isn't really fair. Your tolerance or affinity for either will probably equal your tolerance or affinity for the OS. If you believe in the Unix philosophy bit about flat text, you're probably not going to be impressed with PS's object orientation (though PS can do flat text just fine).
For my part, I would love to learn bash, but my job doesn't really involve any *nix. PS came easy because I already needed a better way to work in Windows.
And no, I don't think they abused their "product" either. They did what they always do--show people things selectively to elicit a response. Usually it's called "advertising." In this case called it "research."
I remember, as TFA mentions, these wondrous little $14 robots. Except if you're not Harvard, the distributors are charging about $125 for each one, and hundreds more for the programmer and charger.
The "Is it worth the time?" comic is illustrative, but I think it's built on false premise. I don't automate parts of my job (just) to save time, I do it because repetitive tasks, that I know can and should be automated, drive me insane. Even if there is no net time savings, I'd rather take the creative route.
I have really come to love the creative exercise of scripting my job responsibilities on the operations side of things. I can keep it simple, or make it complex. I can adhere or not adhere to whatever style I wish. I make the cost-benefit analysis as to whether I'm going to write it or not. I can share it with my coworkers as soon as there is an obvious benefit, or keep it on the down-low if it is not yet ready for prime time.
I own my scripted 'products' and I reap the full benefits of them.
Not everyone has such a short attention span that they need jangley noise to keep them from moving to another web site.
Because I'm assuming actual audio from the video, if it were recorded, would be useless for PR purposes? Just turn off your sound if the music bothers you.
Shit, what neighbourhood do you live to have people show at your door with batS?
Seconded. I've never had any of the stuff he describes happen to me. Either he lives in a post apocalyptic dystopia or he's not very discreet at school/work/play.
So it's ok for conservatives to not be open to liberal ideas but it's not ok for liberals to be cool with conservative ideas? Nice double standard you have there.
Okay, fine. Be a conservative and don't even talk about diversity. Or be a liberal and talk about diversity, but mean "people who look different but think the same." Pick your poison.
Until they incorporate they're not entitled to free speech or religious exemptions.
Non sequitur.
One is a case involving employer responsibilities for health care, in light of the religious views of the employers. The other is an article about individuals being surveiled for their religious views.

Unfortunately, Linux has a lot to do with Bash.

Or, they simply use a $5 wrench.
Don't be ridiculous, we're talking about the US government and not some thugs.
It would be a $5,000 wrench.
That makes no sense in context.

You must ask yourself honestly : Why is it, when faced with stories like this, is your first instinct to claim that the woman lied or made it up?
Because they identify with her tormentors.
Evolve, people. At least keep the trolling to a respectable severity.

try again. not an example. it's barely a real fallacy anyway.
No real fallacy would be caught dead in that argument.

Selling bitcoin mining rigs is a guaranteed profit.
...assuming a guaranteed buyer.

That's just an excuse to keep investigating until the US knows whom to blame.
Look at LA's transit history. Or watch Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Of course, in reality the Judge Dooms of this world won.
