You just can't stop lying, can you?
Statistics Canada projects that, by 2031, almost one-half of the population over the age of 15 will be foreign-born or have at least one foreign-born parent.[24] The number of visible minorities will double and make up the majority of the population of cities in Canada.
A comparison of the Harvard and Goren maps show that the most diverse countries in the world are found in Africa. Both maps also suggest that the United States falls near the middle, while Canada and Mexico are more diverse than the US.
It's why I chose the US; it's pretty much the only major country that still operates that way.
Look at your last election. The rest of the world is laughing at you. Sad little man.
When you work for someone, it's supposed to be a two-way relationship. The employer expects you to treat them fairly - not slack off all the time, not steal stuff, and be loyal. So where's the company's loyalty to their female employees? Why are they not just paying equally for equal work?
Or just post everyone's pay, so that women have the necessary knowledge to dig their heels in when this sort of bullshit happens?
tell your new employer that you need to strictly work 8 to 4 so you can do something completely unrelated to work or your career.
You wouldn't have to negotiate with your employer if you were in a union - it would be part of your contract. Strange how people who would benefit the most from unions are the most anti-union.
Bullshit. You can see everything at -1. To see everything, or almost nothing, or anything in between, is a user choice, not the site's choice. Obviously, your -1 post is still viewable, so just how is the range of allowable opinions restricted? You're full of shit. And that's my opinion.
Wondering how to show some affection towards NASA? Adopt it. I have sectioned off 64,000 individual pieces of NASA to be "adopted" by supporters on slashdot. The pieces are assigned randomly. Similar to adopting a highway or naming a star, participants do not get legal or property rights to their section. So whether you get launch pad 39b or some marshy shoreline, you benefit the same.
I'm comparing it to this one because that's what the story is about. Similarly, if the story were about Ubuntu abandoning Unity I wouldn't be talking about openSUSE in a VM.
No, I'm ignoring them because they're not relevant to my proposal. What I was proposing was extremely small scale - one or two other people. Not a commercial venture. It would help end the isolation that people working on their own experience.
And you do the math - in this case they're charging $130 a month, but you have to pay for your own coffees, and you can't bring them in from off-premises, same as you can't bring your own food to a restaurant. So 3 cups a day (that's on the low side), 5 days a week, 4.3 weeks in a month comes out to 64 cups (well, 64.5, but who's counting). Your coffee bill will be more than your workbar membership. And then there's snacks, etc. Far cheaper for a team of two or three people to work from someone's home.
To drop from over 40% prior to surgery to 4% after is an incredible success story. Stop selectively quoting without looking at the context.
Too bad that in the US, society is letting transsexuals down by continuing to pass laws against them, as well as making it hard to obtain surgery that, as the figures show, saves lives.
I made choices? To try to stop a murder when I was 16 rather then be killed as well? How is that a bad thing, even if it did give me PTSD? Hint - it's not - because I survived.
The difference, however, between the No. 1 spender, the United States, and the No. 10 spender, Canada, is quite large. Canada spent 10.2% of its GDP on health care in 2013, which amounted to $4,351 per person, while the United States spent 16.4% of its GDP that year, amounting to $8,713 per person.
So if you just did the same things we do, which result in longer lifespans, it would be less than half what you're using as a comparison. However, because being an American is pretty much commensurate with being overweight or obese, the costs will obviously be higher. But that's your choice. You can put a tax on soft drinks, public education, etc., but you won't. Here there are government ads on TV every day encouraging people to get active. That's a lot better than ads for coke that try to intimate that if you walk for x number of minutes, you'll burn off the calories in a can of coke, which just encourages consumption (but that's what coke wants - not fit people, but people who will over-consume guilt-free).
Are you for real? All women have a huge risk of sexual assault - 50%. And the vast majority are repeat victims. So my experience is typical. It comes with the territory, and the problem isn't transition, the problem is men who think with their dicks. Nice victim-blaming you've got going there, jerk.
In a large enough population, you're going to get some people who, just at random, have a much higher number of "bad things" happening to them than others, same as if you pick random 4-digit numbers, you'll eventually come up with 4444, 1234, etc. Numbers that don't look random, but are.
Where is your proof for the claim that the public health care system (medicaid/medicare) in the US isn't working? These are people who would have NO care without it. Are you saying that people with no health care do better than people with health care? Absurd, but that's what your statement leads to.
And no, medicare/medicaid don't account for about half of US health spending. Total health spending in 2015 was 3. trillion, of which Medicare combined accounted for $1.191 trillion, out of 3.2 trillion total health care spending. That's 37%, a far cry from half. A billion here, a billion, there, and soon you're talking about real money.
Also, since you cited Israel and Greece as doing better, you proved my point. They both have universal public health care plans.
No - the original study that it quotes only has 17 subjects, and dates ton 1975. A second study it quotes is also from the '80s, and another portion is from the 90s. Social conditions have changed, and subsequent studies have found that the biggest determinators were lack of social acceptance and support, and delayed care. Learn to do proper research.
And obviously newer research will be less cited because it hasn't been around as long. Here's a simple test - go in person and talk to a specialist in the field who knows what they're talking about. Get the latest information and practices. Suicide rates now are barely above the general population post-surgery with proper care. The emphasis in that last sentence is proper care. My endocrinologist screwed up. I fixed the problem and feel great. Unfortunately crappy care happens more often than it should, because there are doctors out there who are still influenced by the WHI study, which also turned out to be bullshit that wasn't replicable.
Who's talking about leasing office space. I've got two spare bedrooms. If I were still into coding, looking for a couple others who want to do the same would make sense.
If you "run one of your own", you get to pick and choose which one or two others you're going to share space with. That's important. Maybe you want people with complementary interests; maybe you want people with the same interests. You get to choose who you work with, and whether pets are allowed. In the early days, dogs were allowed in most start-ups. Not so much now. It's been shown that just having a dog sitting in the corner doing nothing lowers arguments in meetings. That doesn't happen with the "workbar" concept. And of course, greater productivity means you finish earlier or produce more in the same amount of time. Less stress. More happiness. Just try doing that in a Staples. (mind you, I used to bring mine in while shopping, and nobody said anything because Newfies are enormous)
Slashdot Mirror
And yet it's cutting more than 80 (not the 31 from the summary). 31 is to total so far ...

No, what people who don't know what OS they're running need is a web browser for Facebook, Twitter, and email.
This old troll again??? You only need to make your source code available to those who receive the binaries, fucktard.
Cogito ergo sum. Until an AI can come up with that on its own, it's not there.

Canada admitted 35,700 Syrian refugees. That's almost 3x the US number.That's a heck of a lot better than the US's 12,486
Also, don't forget the province of Quebec - the second-largest province in the country - mostly french. Canada has 2 official languages.
Canada is more diverse than the US
A comparison of the Harvard and Goren maps show that the most diverse countries in the world are found in Africa. Both maps also suggest that the United States falls near the middle, while Canada and Mexico are more diverse than the US.

The article was specific, and the limitations aren't just limited to Staples.
Why am I even bothering wasting my time with a liar? You've become boring.
When an AI can explain how AI works, then maybe I'll believe that it's an AI. Until then ...

Kind of like the difference between being an employee and an independent contractor. Too many constraints? You're an employee.
"restricts the range of allowable opinions"
Bullshit. You can see everything at -1. To see everything, or almost nothing, or anything in between, is a user choice, not the site's choice. Obviously, your -1 post is still viewable, so just how is the range of allowable opinions restricted? You're full of shit. And that's my opinion.
So do lots of open-source software projects. If you're not politically correct, out you go.
The Chinese would immediately swoop in and buy a 51% share. Within a year a chinese company would be offering re-usable boosters for less.

And no, you're the one who claims it would be $10,000/year/person.
The difference, however, between the No. 1 spender, the United States, and the No. 10 spender, Canada, is quite large. Canada spent 10.2% of its GDP on health care in 2013, which amounted to $4,351 per person, while the United States spent 16.4% of its GDP that year, amounting to $8,713 per person.

As long as the commercial use is 25% or less, no need to ask permission from the city. YMMV. Not everyone lives in the UK.
