Yes, but how far can you possibly be commuting to work? I used to think that the gas price was insane in your neck of the woods, but then I realized you don't really need to go anywhere...
I live in the upper midwest and could drive for DAYS in a straight line and not leave the USA.
I understand what you mean by ethical balance. I disagree with you. Yes, some people make shocking statements to provoke a discussion. I don't consider it extremism, just annoying.
Let me give you my examples of the Extremes I put forth: Extreme peace: You can beat me, scourge me, kill me and I won't hurt you or even desire it. Extreme grace (as in graciousness): I will give you whatever you need, no matter what it costs me. Extreme joy: It make me happy to see others succeed or find happiness, even though I have nothing. --
I was trying to figure out where to reply on this topic, and it looks like this is as good a place as any... So, don't take this personally.
Point: Extremes are good. What is this drivel about "ethical balance" or the avoidance of extremes from the list? Take extreme peace for example. Or extreme grace. Or extreme joy? There is no limit, unless you want to redefine what those are. Don't.
I realize many philosophies use the Yin-Yang, Good vs. Evil approach, but it doesn't really work. Extreme Good will destroy evil and that's how it will end up. Talk to me afterwards and I'll explain it in clear detail.
The 10 Laws guy is a freak. The laws have nothing to do with robotics - they are his "ideal humanist" if he had the chance to make one.
Yes, define: would work, but most people would just use a spell checker. The problem is that they are BOTH legitimate words, so they would both pass the spell checker - and the google search tried by the poster.
Interesting how personal research has changed with the Internet: We have lightning fast access to data of unknown quality. And it's getting faster. And there seems to be less and less information, but more and more data.
Maybe it would suffice to lock out the redundant moderation until the article is a couple of hours old. I had a post marked as redundant in the first three minutes! The real redundant post was _after_ mine!
Here's the deal. In most cities, MOST of the radio stations are owned by the SAME company. Don't like it? Change the channel? To what?
Also, ads are supposed to be the thing we tolerate in order to get cheap service - Not the content! Seems like the ads are overtaking everything. I can't stand watching/hearing/reading ads. So I reduce my exposure. This model will break sooner than later.
America is proud of everything we do. Even things we shouldn't be, but that's another discussion.
Powerful weapons are used as deterrents, mostly, so it behooves us to always have the best and fastest and most intimidating arsenal. Of course it makes no sense to have so many Nukes because they can't be used (too much damage, too messy to clean up). So we develop smaller, more precise weaponry. Always learning, always improving, always the best.
No, use doxygen. (And make sure to link in the ATL code too)
There are a couple websites that have some examples. I have been using WTL for about 6 months or so and it's pretty neat for porting old straight windows C code with new C++ code. Way more usable than MFC. The downside is there are no real wizards to use once a project is started.
Number 1, who generally dominates the market; Number 2, who is no slouch, but still number 2; and, finally Everybody else, who are nowhere near 1 or 2.
Ask any major business consultant. The goal of your business is to be #1. Otherwise you're not serious.
I dunno which bible you're reading, but the Torah (first five Books of Moses) does not say that you will go to Hell if you're a so-called non-believer. Christians started all that to keep converts.
Well, Hell is mentioned in Ch 32.
And it is more about rebellion than belief, but how would you react if something you created turned around and denied your existence? Even after you went ahead and re-established the relationship by meeting with many of them personally?
I remember doing this back in '94. We had one good computer (a mac) and attached two keyboards with mice to it and programmed side-by-side on it. Weird.
I was wondering why they would say that... I mean the royalty on each song is something like 7 cents! I understand the investment in setting up the service hasn't been paid for maybe... but they cannot honestly say there's no profit margin. Who are they kidding?
I started to look, but you should try to point with a finer grain. It's hard to muddle through the presentation to get to the objectives....
In any case, you cannot separate the monetary system from the governing authorities. It makes no sense. Everyone is under authority, one way or another. Authority has the ability to cause change in the system. That's why they call it authority. I agree that some tweaking of the system has backfired, due to unwise decisions of those in power. But, to suggest eliminating the influence and responsibility of government is foolish.
BTW, I am in favor of "necessary and sufficient" gorvernment, in case you were wondering.
What is interesting is that the total amount of money in the economy should represent the total "value" of the economy. This is more than the amount of Gold or Silver. Precious metals are just a small piece of what is considered "value." That is why we don't have a Gold Standard.
The problem is the estimation of "value" in the economy. I personally consider some things that cost money "valueless." Try to solve that problem.

You are absolutely right.
Those are not against you are with you!

Why couldn't they make a pump using simulated peristalsis? You'd think there'd be no destroying of cells, since there's no valve or sliding parts....
The clueful doofus (say that three times fast) was beating the Karma system, since Funny doesn't help you much.
I like funny posts as long as they are on topic, which the grandparent was. Anyhoo.....

I thought SPF meant Single Point Failure at first glance!
You know, like putting all your eggs in one basket so when you trip, you're back to Zero.
They must make eigenvectors of the eigenvalues from the face eigens.
Or NOT.
Because I tried it a couple times with different basic expressions and got totally different results - and I mean NOT EVEN CLOSE...

In pretty much every mature market there is:
Number 1, who generally dominates the market;
Number 2, who is no slouch, but still number 2;
and, finally
Everybody else, who are nowhere near 1 or 2.

Reminds of the issue of concurrent vs. parallel processes in "operating systems" class...
Half the class couldn't get the idea the first day and it was probably due to the instructor's weak teaching ability...

"Perceived" value on the free market.
The New Economy was based on wacked perceptions. That's the problem to solve. Ignorance in the free market.
What is interesting is that the total amount of money in the economy should represent the total "value" of the economy. This is more than the amount of Gold or Silver. Precious metals are just a small piece of what is considered "value." That is why we don't have a Gold Standard.
