How many times have you seen scientists starting wars over theories and results?
; Hoo, boy. I take it you have never worked with the faculty of a university. Granted, they don't use guns and bombs, but probably only because they don't have access to them.
Nope, they don't underlie the scientific method. They are merely tools of the scientific method. Immeasurably useful tools, but it is the scientific method at the base, not mathematics, logic or philosophy. When experiment shows that mathematical models can successfully predict observed phenomena, those mathematical models are used. When experiment fails to show that such models do so, they are tossed out. They may still be of interest to mathematicians, but scientists have no further use for them.
you aren't getting contacted by a Nigerian 411 scammer with some dead relative or something or other and trying to deposit a magical sum of money in your account.
Case in point right here in my home state of Virginia: The state's Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control stores (commonly called "ABC stores"). As part of the state's alcohol laws, licensed stores can sell wine and beer, and licensed bars and restaurants can sell booze by the glass. If you want hard liquor by the bottle, you have to buy it at an ABC store, which are state-owned. They turn a profit, and that profit goes into the state's coffers.
It must take longer to boil water in the US then. In Aus a standard electric kettle has a 2.4kW resistive heating element.
You don't see many kettles with built-in heating elements here. People heat their kettles on the stove, which will either be gas, or if it's electric, will be on a special high-capacity circuit.
And who will be blamed? Why, the researchers who discovered this incredible negligence, of course! "If you hadn't shown the hackers how to do it, we never would have this problem!"
My company does this. You're entitled to reimbursement of your Internet connection charges (not the whole cable bill, of course) up to $50/mo. This actually doesn't cover my whole ISP bill (thanks, Comcast!), but hey, every little bit helps.
This isn't necessarily universal, as it's not required like 911 access, but you can certainly do it on my phone. Go into "People", select "In case of emergency" (it's big and bold at top) and you can select contacts from your contact list to be emergency contacts. These can then be called from the lock screen with the "Emergency contacts" button.
My Android 4.1.2 on a Verizon DROID 4 certainly has it. It's required to be there. Look at the bottom of your lock screen (It *is* a lock screen, right? Requiring a code to unlock the phone? It's not there if your phone's not locked and you can just swipe to select the function you want).
The *right* way to cover the "hit-by-a-bus" scenario is to put all your passwords into an encrypted repository, and only give your wife the password to the repository. Ideally, the repository should then be placed in a safety deposit box that can't be accessed outside of the hit-by-a-bus scenario, but that would admittedly be an extra expense and arguably overkill.
Over $2 billion for FY 2014. $409 million for the last quarter of 2014, which translates to a yearly pace of $409 million time four, or slightly over $1.6 billion. In other words, sales are falling.
shouldn't the organizer of the event -any event- get to choose if it can be broadcast or not, since aren't they in control of the copyright of the recording????
Well, yes, they do. They are. The NFL is the organizer of the event, and controls the copyright of the recording. It's their rule that the game can't be broadcast locally if it isn't sold out, nobody else's. Who else did you think it might be?

Were you aware that the *word* "nomarch" comes from the Ancient Greek, nomos, meaning law?
Nope, they don't underlie the scientific method. They are merely tools of the scientific method.

We'll have to ask M.
And then he offers to look up phone numbers for you! Perhaps you meant 419.

You mean, like this guy?

Silly man, everybody knows, "Step #3: Profit!"

It would really surprise me if your Android phone *doesn't* have this feature, because it *is* required by law. Mine certainly has it.

Okay, I'm confused. How can a bonus you only get when unarmored stack with a bonus that comes from armor?
Because "Are you interfaced? Have you ever been interfaced?" doesn't sound nearly as sexy.
Wow. So your excuse is that you're only dropping this massive rewrite on the audience least able or inclined to absorb it. Way to go.
For more info, you can watch this documentary.

Synology now insists that this in fact reflective of their move to quantum computing technology, and that the parrot is both alive and dead.
