In this context, "Kids are being graduated from HS without knowing how to read and write." is grammatically correct. Admittedly, it may be more difficult than necessary to parse correctly; however, it is the teachers that are graduating the students from high school. So, kids are being graduated from high school [by their teachers] without knowing how to read and write. The use of the passive voice in this case puts extra emphasis that they were not deserving to receive a diploma.

Nope, I've always lived in North America. However, I have moved a lot, and it might be that I'm subconsciously relating which way I'm going to where I think the water is. It's west on the west coast, north when in Ottawa and south when in Toronto. Hard to say. It would be so much easier if my brain could just use the sun.:)
I'd use it to work on my horrible spatial navigation skills and figure out exactly why I consistently think I'm going the right way when I'm going either 90 or 180 degrees away from it.
Sex isn't trademarked, so domain squatting doesn't apply. It's a domain that he bought and owned and as a result had a right to do whatever he wanted with it.
The original paper is here: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1502.0141... What they effectively do is create a set of all the tokens and punctuation in a method and then compress that set to include only those tokens that are "useful". They then compare the length of this set with the original method. I don't see how this is any more useful than compiling the method, looking at its bytes, and stating this method is mostly chaff since it can be reduced into a single 0 and 1, i.e. its BINSET is {0, 1}.
An example threshed set they provide for java bubblesort is: int, length, =, array,., for, (, 1, 0, ,;, if, ++, ), {, [, j, 1,., |, ], temp, }. If you're a programmer, you can probably see how silly this is just from looking at that set.
I'm sure this has already been said, but Google's positive index on the evil scale seems to be higher (or lower). Once again, they seem to be bordering on true neutral from a D&D sense; I guess that's not too bad considering they are a huge public corporation (that I don't think I'll work for any time soon). ~ Keenan
Based on just the title, I thought this was going to be about computer chess opponents consistently beating world chess champions, making the title unnecessary.
And Google is *not* trying to "help" their customer? Google screws with search results all the time: it used to be much more geek-friendly than it is today. It thinks it knows what I want to search better than I do: thinking I make typos when I don't, and it includes search terms I don't want to include. Many of the geek customizations for advanced users that used to work are no longer available.
I actually worked at Microsoft awhile, quit for a couple of years, and then decided to freelance. You've just got to be stubborn and have a lot of passion. It can be done.
Yet another stupid move by Google. At this rate, Apple is going to win hands-down with Facebook coming up behind them. Gotta wonder what's really going on.
'The Truth Machine' written in 1997 is a sci-fi novel that goes into this idea fairly well, and provides a bunch of other near-future interesting technologies. Not perfect by far, and it's out of print now, but you can get see more info about it or pick it up at Amazon. (The first 1-star rating was quite harsh in my opinion because the tech ideas expressed make it worth at least 3 stars, many of them implementable with today's technologies.)
But there are so many solutions that avoid race conditions: here's one just off the top of my head. Don't tally until the end, simply leaving the votes on each machine, just like the pen and paper method. At the end, add the total from each machine in a pre-determined order, adding each machine's votes once and only once. Even the board game RoboRally figured out a solution without race conditions.
Ah well, what do I know. I'm Canadian: we already use the consistent, straightforward, relatively cheap, fast and reliable pen and paper method. I guess that's what we get for our higher taxes.

I dunno. I had a friend who used to work on it back when it started. He *might* miss it.
And is well on its way to possibly lose everything.
As a Canadian, last I checked it was legal to download here but not to upload (i.e. distribute).
It was the first link in the submission. :)

Yeah, they beat Rogers out by a hair.
The Canadian government violates Canadian privacy laws. It's actually impressive we still have a privacy commissioner.

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes for the mainstream media to run with this.
Mostly Harmless.

Screenshots of more than just the settings would have been nice.
Well, you were never fully functional because you were using C++.
And a couple of newer movies that I am out of energy to track down.
Limitless would likely be one.

Because you could be on a bus or train?

What I didn't mention is that I'm now 35 and quite happy.
