not getting out there causes gridlock also. If I am at a green light, but there is not room to clear the intersection, so I stop before the crosswalk, some asshole will take a right from the cross street, preventing me from ever crossing the intersection as the spot I need to be open is always full. If I dont get into the intersection to stop the right-turners, then I will sit all day. Gridlock.
Actually, even Jefferson in the first ever census saw the value in obtaining extra information. He pushed for more than just number of people, although that was the doctrine provided by the constitution. Were his motives pure evil? I doubt it. Government has reasons for what it does, which often conflict with the citizens best interest ( real or perceived ) and has always pushed the limits on every process that has been available, even the super-freedom-loving-and-creating-founding-fathers.
yes, closer to the metal. I load everything to ram to keep it closer to the metal. the performance hit from the spinning magnets not being directly next to the processor is amazing.
Much of our punishment system is making examples of people. That is how everyone else knows what will happen to them.
I like consistency in the justice system. I dont think that because this situation ended up in the worst possible outcome for this person that the rest of the judicial process should be skipped.
in this case, the crime was end result of carelessness and/or stupidity. Deterrence may have a chance against this course of action in a different way than getting caught mugging someone would.
just another arrow in the quiver. People need to not be careless with guns. I grew up around guns, was taught how to fire, clean and care for them. Taught how to treat them and act around them. I was always taught that they will kill people if you are not exact in all of your actions around them. If someone wants to carry this responsibility, then they need to act correctly. I truly do think that people who are careless with guns need to be punished.
It isnt just the death of the kid that I see, but the fact that the action that caused the death was possible. If the child had lived, or not been shot, I dont see the gun owner as suddenly not guilty of a crime. I dont see that the guilt by law should be washed away because of obvious suffering for the results.
To be clear... If a 3 year old is able to discharge a weapon, the owner of that weapon should be punished, no matter where the bullet lands. This should be made clear to every single person who ever wants to own or possess a gun.
apparently it wasnt in this case. This is something that could be taught in a gun safety and licensing class. Even when you have a reason to want to handle a weapon, when the potential threat is clear, dont just put the damn thing down and walk away.
What about the situations where a kid is shot but not killed , or the situation where the gun discharges and misses completely? To me, these situations are the same, with a different result. The actions should end with some punishment, not dependent upon the results of the actions.
If you leave a gun where a child can access it, and manages to discharge it, you dont become not guilty of something heinous because you got lucky.
isnt that the point of many punishments? Most people dont get paid back for their losses. Even when possible, the DAs end up going for simple jail time over restitution. Being punished generally doesnt make the perpetrator feel bad, just makes them mad they got caught.
Many punishments are set up as deterrents, so that you know what is going to happen to you if you get caught doing the crime.
This is an issue of deterrence. The person involved in this case is already suffering enough , but the other people who dont think about gun safety need to know that carelessness leads to accidents leads to severe punishment.
I spent some time yesterday learning about SSE4.x extensions. And that the instruction set increased to SSE4.1 on the chips from Intel that were built on the 45nm fabrication process. I also learned that the SSE4.2 set completed the SSE instructions rollout, and that set is available on the Core i7 . I also learned that while most of the SSE instructions are multimedia related, the later revisions do more with floating points, and vmware only experimentally supports ignoring the instructions ( how can they know what your app needs or is doing). UGH
All this to expand an ESX cluster of all IBM HS21s . Intel chips, same manu, same model... vmotion is failing . Not even IBM can keep up with the changes in the meanings and names of what the chips are doing and are capable of .
I am so happy that other people are doing this too. I have always slept at odd hours. I had trained myself to actually sleep during everyone else's normal time, but after having a child I have not been able to re-establish the new times. I am back to waking up between 1 and 3 am, and I dont feel like going to sleep until just before sunrise. This has happened nearly my entire life, and like many people here has led to my career... when I had nothing to do all night, I got a computer and started figuring out how stuff works. My dad always worked night shifts, and I wonder if he had the same issues. My sister also doesnt sleep... so does anyone with this experience know if there is a hereditary aspect to the issues? I have to really research this stuff now because I cant get my wife to stop nagging me to get this fixed, when I dont see anything wrong outside of my ability to sleep during "normal" hours, and the chemical western med fix leaves me hung over and still tired... just let me sleep from 5 am to 9 am , with a nap later, and all is well
that would be a hell of a prank. I would not take advantage of the free for all unless i really knew the specific date. I'd hate to find out the mail arrived early, and I wasnt allowed to go berserk until saturday .
Maybe the red blood cells will just absorb the oxygen and transport it around like they would oxygen from the lungs. If done correctly, you really could drink like a fish!

No Shatner, it is not a contradiction; it is a sentence fragment.

Im not sure the test was the load of slashdot. They may be trying to prove that even slashdot's readers dont care to follow a link to their site.

great speech ! that needed its own theme music
but really, someone educate me... why would anyone find 3d rendering in a browser useful?
