Logically, you can't claim not being able to find people to fill a position if you just laid off two people qualified for the position.
Yes you can... Do you assume all employees within the same company are created equally? Some people are more efficient and produce higher-quality work than others.
So you're kicking out talented and resourceful people so that you can keep some fat lazy Americans in work?
Yes, that sounds like the best way possible to prepare for bouncing back after the recession.
Oh... I guess stereotyping never works well, yet the H1B are mainly high-skilled workers. Sending them back home only gives their home country, or what ever country they decide to relocate to, an invaluable resource.
What the hell does CS have to do with sysadmins? We're the guys writing the programs you sysadmins use, or for those who are actually good at it rather than average, researching.
Or we're supposed to be. Perhaps 'CS' has become so much of a watered down term in some places that it ends up being sysadmin vocation school.
There were no other web sites or processes running on the server, and it would be impossible for a software bug in journalspace to overwrite the drives, sector by sector.
They have specifically stated that they don't want to give the ability to change skills out-of-game, as that would remove one of the incentives for logging in.
If the central planning continuously evaluates the input, output and outcomes. Market economics is just one of the ways in which this can be performed.
I do agree that centralization is not optimal for many tasks involving increasing efficiency. However, your example with the government giving telco's money to build out infrastructure is not an example of centralization.
Rather, it is a very good example of privatization and decentralization failing. Not because those are bad ideas, but rather due to corruption and lack of control. Thus, 'giving the telcos a lot of money and hoping they'll spend them in a rational way' is a very capitalistic point of view.
It involves a trust in 'the market', rather than a distrust of human nature, something that requires tight control on what infrastructure actually gets built for that money.
If you look carefully at this number, it's clearly one constructed by a human. The first '5' might be random, but the proceeding numbers do not have any specific reason to be weighted towards higher digits!!!
Thus, a more realistic semi-random number would be:
You've been living under a rock if you think there's not been any innovation in the software world...
What you might be missing is that 'practical usage' of these innovations depend more on necessity than novelty, and that it takes decades for those innovations to mature enough to take a proper role in the industry.
This sort of project makes a lot of sense in a place like Japan where there are a few places with very dense population separated by rural areas.
No... NO IT DOESN'T!!!
It makes sense only in the minds of people who only know the image Japan wants to project to the world.
They don't need _even faster_ trains using Ãbertech, they already got the shinkansen. Shaving off 30 minutes of the ride from Tokyo to Osaka isn't worth it, when the effort should really be spent on making what they have _affordable_.
Wasting enormous sums of money (that they don't have, most of it is funneled out of the postal savings and pension funds... Which, btw forced the previous prime minister to resign cause they 'lost' all the records of how much people had deposited) on unneeded construction projects is the _LAST_ thing Japan needs.
They should try to bury all the cables hanging around everywhere... Seriously, only place in the country where they bury cables are Shinjuku and Harajuku; as a pilot program. It's so ugly that after a while you just learn to ignore it, yet still it lingers in the back of your head.
Or they could build people real houses, instead of these un-isolated plastic... things. Winter here isn't _that_ warm.
Why not hamper nanoships (can't afford to lose subs)
Heard of 'The Great Nano-Nerf' coming? Plenty of nano-fag tears flowing.
Why not ban the ISK farmers? (they don't)
They take the subscription fees for the ISK farmers, then every 4-5 months they ban them en mass... In addition to subtracting bought isk from the wallets of idiots. (Ouch)
Why did they axe EVE-TV? (can't afford it)
So it's expensive...
Why do they spam "power of two" offers every month? (they need the subs)
And a lot of people got dual/triple accounts, so what's bad about the offer?
Why do they charge people from certain countries more? (because they need to?)

What was the point of your post?
If you are, as you say, too stupid to know what interferobolloxs is then why would you make a post to explain it to us?
And seriously, who here in /. does _not_ know what it is.
No, it really _is_ a coincident that China started targeting porn sites on the twentieth anniversary of 'the June 4th incident'.
You think they looked at the calendar and realized... OMG, this is the year we must start censoring internet porn!
template <unsigned int n>
struct adder {

The result of n=100 is: 5050
Oh, you're going to modify your constitution too, just like Russia?
Putin/Obama, life-time dictators of the new world. (or, at least past 2017)
Wait... What?

Doesn't sound like an 'rm -rf .'...
Like... Uh... Sucking at his mother's tits?
It's not like it was a great mystery that white liquid that tasted so good...

I was going to watch some japanese idol videos... But now... I JUST CAN'T GET THAT IMAGE OUT OF MY HEAD!
*sigh*
Wonder if they got some anime in that genre... brb

Existence of rampant corruption is is not a reason to discard economic theories... Get rid of the corruption and try again.
That joke is so badly done it's not even funny.

Yeah, sarcasm works wonders with native Japanese. ^_^

I can turn off the annoying 24h clock IRL.

Yes, please... Destroy 5 years of backstory and legends.
Yes, much amusement is to be had laughing at noobs flying battleships in missions without the proper support skills and fitting know-how.
It's still _BAD_ science.

Sorry, but the 'consensus' only existed in the minds of the Americans. Most of us Europeans could smell the bullshit, MWD's or not.

It's called taxes and exchange rates.
