Better yet - using a conveniently available blow-up doll would be wonderfully ironic. Using the forbidden creepy doppelganger to access forbidden knowledge.:^)

Have you ever seen a blow up doll? They usually are smaller than an adult =P
You're not getting it... I'm talking about farmers with about 5 cows who use the same methods as 100+ years ago when it was common practise, so hygiene is not the best. This probably doesn't exist in your country, anymore, but this planet is bigger than your country.
I trust what you say true. But in the case of small family farmers that i have seen they do sit on their dung when they are chained to something and have no other place to lie down. So it may not happen in more professional farms like your seems to be but happens on small rural farms.
I have always used webmail. I always found that to use a program to fetch mail to the local machine was odd when i could just log-on somewhere from anywhere and read what i want. If theres one thing that makes sense to be in the "cloud" thats mail.
The area along its abdomen that the bug uses to make the noise is only about the width of a human hair, and researchers aren't sure exactly how it produces so loud a song.
Thats the reason not to adopt chrome and stick with a non spying fox.
Apart from that and the lack of the FF extensions we learned to love, i actually like chrome.
Most job descriptions just list that they require a degree by default, I've yet to be declined any job in IT (or any job for that matter) because I haven't got a degree.
Try that in a country that has more degrees in your area than jobs (yes including IT)...
Maybe its shape is indeed a perfect sphere and the "width of a human hair" is just a measurement error.
How more precise they want to get, until its shape diverges a human hair from a perfect sphere when enlarged to the size of the galaxy?
Is there an end to measurement errors? Am i making any sense? I think not, its late at night:x
Except Linked in has revenue and a pretty solid plan.
Maybe it's the fact that most people here have no idea about the financial market?
Well OK, how much revenue, how much expected revenue, and what is the basis of their plan? You will have to excuse the rest of us for not having detailed financial about companies we have no interest in.
Quoting a washington post blog :
"LinkedIn made $94 million in the first quarter of 2011, and its net income was $15.4 million in 2010"
What are you talking about? The drugs aren't all legal in Portugal nor are they taxed nor that money was reverted to education.
As far as i know it's legal to have a small amount of drugs (possession) but it is illegal to sell (or have a big amount - more than a few grams).
They are not taxed because it is illegal to sell them.
If you admin a small software company, as a strategy to survive, is it better to pay according to the average, or a bit lower, of the universe you're working on so that you can have lower prices for your costumers and gain some advantage against your competitors? Or is it smarter to bet on quality, pay above average but also have a more expensive product to balance the budget, have better programmers, have a better product and build an image of quality for the stuff you produce?
If you follow the second path, your employees will be earning more than in other companies so i think they wouldn't move jobs as much, so it would make more sense to train them.
Is this naive or utopic?
Imagine a conversation those security guards probably have:
Random person: So... where do you work? /
Security guard: Well i work at google. /
Random person: Whoaa, lucky you! So what do you do at google, are you a programmer, a security expert? /
Security guard: Hmmm, something like that. /

Kinect is not a 3d camera. Unless the setup has several kinects but thats not the usual.
I imagine a kid making a silhouette of an adult with cardboard or something.

Pigeons are infested with diseases and like to live in the middle of their own crap and other filthiness. Oh wait, so do cows! :(
When can we make this small enough so it powers our cell phones and laptops? :P

allows it to release groundbreaking products that are actually impossible to duplicate
Just because the design of an Apple product is distinctive doesn't mean that the product is automatically groundbreaking.
I dropped my iphone once and it kind of breaked the floor.

Joking, i have never had an iphone

A horny bug, it will make it work.
It has to.
...researchers used a drug to shut down the activity of CA1. Without CA1 online, the rats could not remember which lever to push to get water.
Weed. It was weed wasn't it?
They can't remember what was it.

Vonage gets about 75%. Not bad. I think, secretly, that they hire people in India to do it.
I should have guessed when the robotic voice sounded like Apoo! Vonaaage!
BTW didn't the other guy upgraded from windows 1.0 to 7 making this even less relevant?

They should call it GNU Linux 1.0 kernel and make a middle aged guru happy.

1995 called; they want their bubble back.
Slight sign that we are in the presence of another bubble: LinkedIn beeing valued $9 billion.
Or is there some secret in the VB6 code that the open source community can actually learn from?
Probably yes, you can learn a lot from past mistakes.

I allways had a feeling this was true, i was reading some papers about desktop grids and got distracted by this slashstory.

Too late for that.
