Considering USA is 25% and China ("second world" if I recall my Cold War rhetoric) is higher than that, how did you get 60%, or have Europeans scientists already developed their countries into carbon sinks?
Oh, right, you just make shit up because you are a lying scumbag who cares more about their air conditioner and SUV than about their children (and you are way too ugly inside to ever get so much as a date, so no worries there either). Fetid loser.
Programming is a means of expression. While it is self-evident that instruction manuals for vacuum cleaners are all written in China now, novels are not.
So if your programming topic sucks, it can be offshored, but if it is original and creative, it cannot.
If everyone took the parent posts advice, their nation would be left in a very sorry state where no-one produced anything of value.
And it's the toughest of any country's... and has to be since we're the biggest per-capita polluters and so have a lot of ground to cover. We'll get there, so long as we don't heed the ultra-conservatives' lies.
Except that "How dare you offend me!" is the standard cry of the religious.
Haught's presentation was just a big pile of assertions. That he has managed to hide himself in academia and build up such towers of thought, without being torn down to earth long ago is his only intellectual achievement.
Was this the first time anyone had said, "Hey, that's just a pile of unsubstantiated assertion!"?
Theologians are apparently the last surviving group of old-style navel-contemplating philosophers. At least even the ones that discussed the semantics of the word semantics eventually discovered some inductive process by which to end their discussion.
The theologians remain, surrounded by the impenetrable barrier of "how dare you offend my faith!"
All Australian coins have Her Majesty's Royal Jowls on the Heads side. What's is conspicuously missing is the denomination (5 billion cents) on the Tails. I guess they didn't have the guts to speculate on its intrinsic value. So is it really a coin then, or just a medallion?
Exactly. The content containing the link is already on their servers. The could check it there and annotate. What they want is to know if you've clicked it.
Of course no telco is going to allow a world-wide one-time-payment 3G browser. On kindle it was a gimmick, so it didn't matter. "Blame" the telcos for not committing suicide, not Amazon.
Yes, they could. Similarly, a shopkeeper could look at you're clothes and tell you "that'll be an extra $5, Mr Fancy Pants". Do you think that would be smart business practice? Maybe somewhere in a backstreet in Hong Kong. Smart businesses learn to respect their customers if they ever hope to have them back. Repeat customers are the lifeblood of small-transaction online vendors. TFA prefers to invent malice to attract one-off readers, since every idiot visitor is an Ad impression.
Considering Germany's population density for the entire country is almost 25% of an Australian capital city, it's hardly a rip-off.
Australia has more kilometres of roads than Germany, yet 1/4 the population. Would it shock you that German autobahns are superior to Australian freeways? Is it a government rip-off?
Providing network infrastructure, just as providing roads, is all about population density. Would it shock you that 5 people in my house get 1000Mbit for free, or would it just seem parochial?
Nothing is "likely" about Abbott and his Luddites winning the next election, a lot can change in the next 2 years. By then, the NBN and the Carbon Price will either be huge positives or huge negatives, in real terms, rather than the current fear of the unknown that we Aussies tend to wallow in in the political sphere. That's why the Climate Change deniers and Luddites have tried to delay them.
I predict that future gaming will be all based on posting comments to/. since it gives the perfect mix of casual and hardcore, without the hardware requirements that most can no longer afford. Please submit my learned prediction as a story to a rubbish news site.
Hmm... interesting... so all we need to do is find a WWJD version of religious suicide and we can clean up the whole Christian Right with no mess. How about a magical potion that when you drink it, you die, but you'll be catapulted to Heaven by the simultaneous but opposite reaction from the 10 nearest gay men going straight to Hell (it even says so on the bottle). Be sure to pay an Atheist to look after your dog too...
Yes, keeping them on the line is one tactic. When I saw this report, I called THEM, laughed and told them they're going to lose their jobs. It's the only way to combat all teleassholing: you have to stop people from working for the company at a low enough wage. I tell them to go get a real job, to stop being an embarrassment to their nation (I.e. feeding racist sentiments shown above), that their occupation has the highest turnover of any (true), etc.
The sooner they quit, the sooner they can move on to doing something more rewarding with their lives, and the more expensive it becomes to run such "enterprises".

Other than roads? (and aqueducts, and...)

Interesting active climate measures are explored in Containment .

Everyone? Plenty of people have been convinced one way or the other by orators of the position. How did you think we GOT to this point otherwise???
You're clearly still waiting for your Eureka moment.

Indeed, Amazon specifically mentioned that in their press release. No secret, just a helpful, useful option for businesses and mutual customers.
Enough with the paranoia.
ObAnalogy: an elevator does not "close" the stairwell. And they often even have cameras in them.

Sorry, it's 6 months to their end of FY 2012, not 12, the point by which they expect to have made $1B in a FY.
Well done! No-one else will be reporting this amazing milestone for about a year!!!
If it was scored the way actual embedded journalist reports are evaluated, it would be about not capturing atrocities.

That certainly counters the theory that they're trying to put stupid people in the jury.
