I think the translation should be "We dont wanna answer the 15 petitions for impeachment or leaving the 2nd Amendment alone" so we are gonna change the rules.
Just my opinion. Ive been told I've been wrong before.
I found the results of the ultrasound to by highly dependent on who the nurse. they look for gender, snap a couple shots and move you along. others spend time, take more pictures, and actually try to explain what your seeing. Ultimately, the imaging technology is there, its up to the person looking at it to understand what they are seeing.
Having been around the world a couple times, I can say, the food here has a couple issues. Mostly, we are served quantity over quality. Taste is replaced with salt, processed fat, and chemical enhancements.
The only place that has food comparable to ours is the UK. Other places all the meals are about 1/2 or less of what you get here. You sit down at a table to eat. Soda has sugar, not chemically enhanced corn syrup. When I eat in the US, I get a headache for about 30 minutes after eating. Ive nver had that happen outside the US unless its eating fast food in the airport traveling.
You walk into any supermarket, if your right handed you turn right first. Thats were the sweets and fresh breads are.
If you're a woman, you get milk first. Thats why its in the back corner. cookies are what you see after you get milk.
People study people. if they aren't tracking your movement individually with RFID tags, they are watching you on video or using computers to track how an individual moves around an area.
between having Acrobat Standard and Gimp, I really dont have any use for the software.
It would be nice if more companies opened up their legacy software to be free after so many years. People in industry are gonna use the latest anyway due to service contracts.
Lets take the derivative of today's temperature cycle and make a forecast for next week. 130 years of data may make a predition for the next year or so, but without having gone thru a full cycle, how can we know where we are in the ice age cycle? Are we at the top of the temperature range? obviously, we aren't at the bottom. Are we extending this peak? Statistically, no one has answered that. All I have seen is, on average we are.1C hotter than we were 10 years ago and I should buy another $100 worth of carbon credits with my next flight because if the temperature rises another.1C, a polar bear will be inconvenienced hunting for seals.
Like my old draftsman says. "Figures don't lie, but liar's can figure."
The world has a precedence of going places, calling it theirs until someone kicks them out. go to the moon, mine it, call it yours and sell what you get to the highest bidder. No one gave early explorers permission to come here and claim it for what ever purpose.
thats why you go talk to a lawyer first..
Interpretations of the law matters more than what the law says.
Any layman can read the law, but how its enforced matters. The law says the speed limit is 65. you can be pulled over for doing 66. that is what the law says. in reality, a bit over is accepted.
You still get the option of DSL or Cable as your service provider. Unless one or the other is significantly poor that its unusable. Then the other knows where you live and adjusts your rates accordingly.
I'm running dual wide screen monitors and really, it sucks. One monitor gets dedicated to CAD, the other email and web. BUT. its not wide enough to put email and web side by side so I still end up have to flip back and forth depending on what Im working on. wider wouldn't be bad if the height stayed the same or grew a bit.
I would rotate them vertical, but then its too narrow on the cad document.
Oh well. what ever is released, we'll find a way to overcome, adapt, and whine about it.
They are personal days.
When you take care of personal business. renew your driver's license, see the doc for your annual checkup, see a dentist, what ever. Now, to keep it fair, you have to do it in full day increments. either personal time or vacation.
And every boss know that if you're not in the office, you're not working. Kinda like when your flying coach from Houston to Dubai, you can sleep on the plane and be fresh to start when you get there.
I couldn't live without my desk phone. I get just enough signal that occasionally a text message will come thru on my mobile. About the only time its useful is when I'm out of the office, or in certain spots in the building.
Most of the time, we collaborate thru IM of some flavor or email. Policy is, all decisions must be documented thru email, even if its a phone call
Personally, I paid off my student loans last month after 11 years.
I changed major 4 times before landing in engineering. One of those was because chemistry kicked my butt. It didn't click, two of those was because I took a close look at where the market was and where it was going. Something no adviser ever did and something one blatantly lied about.
I agree to the point that not everyone should go to college. trade school, maybe, but every student needs to take i t upon themselves to determine the ROI.
Next point I would like to make, One of my early technical professors said college was essentially compressing experience. In the two to four years you're in college, you will offered 5 to 10 years of real world experience. Its up to the student to retain and use that experience.
What happened to HP? Im staying wth my 48GX till it dies and I'll probably order another off ebay...
I can see the usefulness of color if you do much graphing. Touch screen? Why? there is an app that will do the same thing so now you have a calculator competing with a smart phone that cant do anything else.
Take a look at the GMC truck line. they have the indash screen, surrounded by buttons. lots of buttons. they did the research and found that the people who buy trucks want a button to poke.
I'll stay with my 12 year old frontier with manual window, locks, and conveniently worn smooth areas where I index my hand and know what button im about to poke without ever taking an eye off the road. No software is out of date, altho the VG engine at 200K miles is a bit dated.
Otherwise, our option is to replace the car every two years when we get a new AT&T contract. Maybe we can stand in line overnight for the new iCar.
do we get dual sim cards so I can make a personal call without corporate knowing who I called?
Actually, I don't care. I call who I want, when AT&T will let me have a signal.
have you read a read a newspaper article lately? most are starting to sound like a series of tweets run together, put in a 1.25 inch column, and justified in TNR font.
or we can just use our mobiles to access the cloud based apps and offload the processor work to them.
Kinda like the old mainframe / terminal topology. You guys remember studying that in history right?
And given how AT&T runs, you can do this once a month before you're over your limit on data and being charged another $30.
Yesterday, we discussed how the M$ surface couldn't do everything as well as dedicated devices. why would more cores change that argument? You are now sucking down more power. bigger or higher capacity batteries. screen sized tradeoffs, input device tradeoffs and to get around these you get the same junk to carry around now except you run you phone dead surfing the web when you really need your GPS to get you to see the client or the PHONE to tell him you're going to be late because your GPS is dead.
I don't know how many times it has to be said, people neither want nor need a tablet that can double as a desktop. That is not what tablets are for. That is why all the tablets that came before were niche products at best, landfill at worst.
Apple grasped it was not a desktop replacement, but a specialized appliance. You can't use a tablet like a PC, nor should you. It's a different feature set, a different interface, different everything. I thought perhaps MS had got the message but apparently this is not the case, esp. with the keyboard-case thingy they've got. They're still trying to shoehorn two disparate user experiences together into one, and this neither can nor should be done.
Frankly, as long as Ballmer is in charge, I fear MS is going to keep going down this primrose path, and before it gets better it's going to get a lot worse.
Im afraid your right.
A tablet isn't going to replace my laptop. it isn't going to replace my mp3 player or my camera, or my phone. just like my cell phone hasn't replaced my desk phone.
The surface pro wont replace a laptop either, just like the "ultrabooks" haven't replaced laptops.
Every device is about compromises.
My laptop has comparable specs to a lot of the desktops. I still have to put it on the dock, connect to my dual 22" monitors, my full sized keyboard, full sized track ball, etc.
A tablet for me is something to pull out of my bag at a hotspot to check my emails that require closer reading than I can do on my phone.
The closest in concept to a single device was the Motorola atrix.You still have the headache of having to have all the accessories to make it functional. It looks like the surface could replace many of the functions of my laptop, but its almost the size of a laptop without the power of an i7 processor.
A parent actually pay attention to their kid instead of cramming their head up their ass with their own cell phone. and perhaps while we are at it, teach the kid how to behave in public instead of running off screaming while the parent starts yelling at them.

apparently, hack these days is doing the obvious. Then again, he did qualify it by saying "Low-Tech", just didn't mention how no-tech it was...

To argue that paradigm shift dont apply to social science would be to admit that social science is a science.

we must stop this from happening! We cant let a process of nature destroy the beauty of Hawaii...
