Check again. Std deviation for the iq curve is generally 15 points. Just under 16% of the population represented by a normal curve is above the first standard deviation:
It doesn't make the method invalid. It would be very useful when applied across school systems and such (and the worst teachers don't have to be fired right away, there are other things that could be done).
You can use testing to measure how much a group of students changes relative to their peers when learning from a given teacher (so, if the students fall behind, that's bad, if they get ahead, that's good). The wider the group of peers the better (obviously, it won't tell you much if all of the students have the same teacher)/
I'd bet on 105, but not 120 (less than 10% of the population is going to be near 120 or above). Unless smart people really like computers, it just doesn't work out.
It often makes sense to abandon a battle. The attacker only wins if you permanently sever the connection, a temporary disconnection may make lots of sense (and it may not make any sense...).
My dumb layman interpretation is that Microsoft is willing to grant a device specific license and that license is not compatible with the gpl (which would seem to require that people who receive the code can do whatever they want with it, not simply be able to use the code on the device that included the binary).
The cap is a red herring, as TomTom paying a royalty on their gps doesn't have anything to do with the royalties that might be due for using the code on some other device.
(This is all setting aside the fact that the patent is questionable; at the very least, it is obvious enough that a patent system that treats it as legitimate needs reform (a shorter term might still make sense))
Oh, I don't accept it, but I wouldn't shoot someone over it. And really, if you look at the definition of gibberish, it is pretty clear that it applies to muddled communication, not muddled thinking.
It isn't clear to me that adjusting the licensing of the code in question matters. When it is compiled into the kernel, the gpl license would have to be able to be applied to the code (the gpl doesn't apply to the code in general, but my understanding is that it does apply to the code as used in that instance, or at least, it is intended to apply...).
So they could solve the problem (ostensibly they want to continue to support Fat) by moving to entirely to some other embedded system, but just getting a broader license on the FAT support doesn't necessarily improve things.
TomTom (probably) can't pay Microsoft for a license to the FAT patents without violating the GPL. The people who wrote the code that is (probably) covered by Microsoft's patent would then have the right to sue TomTom (for violating the GPL).
It is kind of a bummer, but if you live near water, there is usually cheaper fuel available that does not contain road taxes, and he essentially did the same thing as going to one of those pumps with his car. It's kind of silly to tax him alone, but on the other hand, there isn't nearly enough oil for everyone to switch, so it isn't really fair not to.
Trans fats are mostly used to stabilize shelf foods, they don't taste better or anything (I would say food in general tastes better since the trans fat freak out, they have to use other methods of keeping the food fresh, so it is fresher...).
The price will only go up so much. Normal people aren't going to pay more for the used oil than for diesel, so there is a reasonable estimate of the price ceiling (given that there is processing involved to make the oil useful, it would be odd for it to exceed the price of diesel over time (an irrational spike wouldn't be real surprising, look at ebay)).
The initial goal of the Firefox project was to create a user oriented browser. Making it small was a side goal, but it was never a primary goal for the people involved.

No, he wants to give me stuff, and he seems less inclined to voice support for sending other people into dangerous situations.
You could make an argument for prohibition (the resistance was more in just ignoring/flouting the law than it was in organizing politically though).

Personally, I wouldn't pay more for a car with a 100 mile range.
BTW, Panasonic can sell some of their batteries since 2007, and even more next year.
What are the odd that your international friends are less typical than your American acquaintances? Non-zero?

No, no, the computer is a mysterious device, subject to moods and whims, and don't dare get it dirty, it might never work again.
Do at least try to read the summary.

They would converge, but I'm not sure that the coming down would be a big part of that.
