    What restarted the economy was the WAR, not the economic stimulus.

    More importantly the giant shot of confidence after winning the WW2 that made people think they could do anything.

    but IBM hosts SAPs SaaS offering.

    The circle is complete...

  8. How many female Shinto priests are there?

    The ban on female Shinto priests was only lifted 60 years ago.

    Almost anything by Larry Niven, but the Ringworld series for sure.

    Both of his main protagonists, Louis Wu and Beowulf Shaeffer do many of the things they do to deal with extended life.

  13. Yeah, pages not words.

    I read at about double your speed, so the 3 to 5 hrs I usually get to read is plenty.

    Granted, I work from home and often read while sitting on stupid "Status" meetings where normal workers would have to sit in a room and try not to fall asleep. That nets me an hour or two on a typical day, sometimes as much as 3.
     

  14. I am not an average reader I don't think.

    I have read 9 free books of about 300 words length in the last week alone.

    It would be interesting to see where I fall in the "average" for Unlimited subscribers.

    Trump 2020: Bring Unmanufacturing Back to America!

    Sorry, the thought of Un-manufacturing things is pretty cool, but the bombardment of political ads made me go there...

    Don't worry, next year we will see the cast of "Gold Rush, 2.0" running the remains of shredded through their washplants.

    Batteries not Included.

  18. With Sanders/Trump, the only way to win is not to play the game.

  19. Yes, but then we would miss out on the Sanders/Trump debates.

    If that comes to pass I am investing in popcorn and hard liquor, because one or the other is going to be consumed in YUGE quantities.

    Read barcodes and translate them. Best price on anything.

  24. Re:Why do they need to politicize ***EVERYTHING*** on Tech Firms Have An Obsession With 'Female' Digital Servants (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    They politicize things when they cannot win with the facts, and must move to emotions.

    "truthiness" vs facts.

    Sorry, Doxing issue.

      I work with it, and one of my mentors works ON Watson itself.

    And I worked for Healthcare companies.

    So I know quite a bit about both.
