If by "lab" you mean an acquired company that develops ONE SINGLE SOLITARY PRODUCT for use across various Walmart applications -- yeah, that's a lab. I interviewed there because they contacted me and the idea of working in an R&D capacity sounded intriguing (even if it was for Walmart), and the person I spoke to made it out like it was an R&D type of place with many internal projects and a "real startup culture". I was pretty pissed off to find out that no -- they just have one product there, will only have product in the foresee able future and as if that wasn't bad enough, that they were planning on relocating to Sunnyvale, because being out in Mountain View was too culturally diverse (my spin on that). What a waste of time, I really let the hiring manager have it when he circled back with the "good news" that they wanted to move forward.
Whenever I'm in Beijing, I like to rock my IIT 91440 Twin-Cartridge Respirator with Goggles, ideally with my Day-Glo Yellow Tychem Qc Chemical Protection Coveralls. Authorities don't give me a problem, they just assume I'm from North Korea.
By throwing all the files in the trash, you will create more filing space and avoid potential fire hazards. It's a truly revolutionary filing system which eases my pyloric valve.
This. I've always been a Canon guy, since I grew up on Canon gear, but in photographer communities I usually hear more stories of people ditching Nikon for Canon than the other way around. And frankly, I just like the Canon L-series lenses over Nikon lenses.
That said, Canon's sensor tech have been rather stagnant the last few years, it's needs some revitalization.
Does the (Higgs) Field exist or did we invent it to make our equations work? Who knows? That's the genius of mankind!
Did we just pull all this out of our ass to make our theories work? Who knows, that's the GENIUS! FFS -- Having this guy debate Ken Hamm would result in a devision by zero error.
Since the bar for invasion of another sovereign state is already set fairly low, what future transgression will be enough when no dead heroes need to return home
I thought it was common knowledge that since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the US Gov't has been waging an escalating war on Private Citizens culminating in the last few year in new and improved ways to conduct mass surveillance, removal of their rights to a trial and killing them in drone strikes.
No more pussy-footing around with stupid attempts at tyranny like saying "We Need to Suspend the Constitution for the War on Drugs" like Bush I stated to the nation. Now days we just call it "National Security" while we have a drone blow up a car carrying a US Citizen because he's a suspected terrorist sympathizer or wipe out a bunch of people attending a funeral because "intelligence sources confirmed a number of terrorists were likely to be present"
I think it only fair that if they choose to leverage "State Rights" to give a sub-standard "Faith Based" Educations, then it should be only fair that the Federal Government cut off all forms of Financial Funding for Education and Unemployment.
Why should US Taxpayers support a bunch of backwards people that want to live in a Theocracy? In fact, I think we should cut Theocratic States off from the US entirely. Seriously, why don't we just end the Union already and let Jesustan and the rest of us go our separate ways?
Why should the educated, secular States continue to support these backwaters that are filled with racist illiterates that contribute next to nothing to our GDP while consuming a disproportionate amount of Tax dollars in the form of Federal Subsidies?
How will policies such as this do anything but cause South Carolina to require even greater amounts of Federal Subsidies to support their backward culture of bible banging red necks?
All children between the ages of 6-18 should be allowed to volunteer for our patriotic service program where they can learn to surveil and report on friends, family and neighbors to help keep our country safe and protect our freedoms.

Frankly, the GPS is a contract of indentured servitude to the ideals of RMS. When someone breaks the terms, does RMS go after them? No -- you do at your own peril and expense. And what monetary compensations are you entitled to? At most, you can force them to open source their product and sue for attorney's fees.
So unless you want to force other people to serve RMS' goals and want to litigate out of pocket on behalf of RMS, why should you use the GPL? Why should a compiler be under GPL? Is there money to be made off the compiler? Are compilers used as internal workings of released software? Will the author(s) be harmed if someone forks LLVM and uses it in a commercial non-OSS OS Distro?
While the GPL might make sense if you want to release commercially useful code while forcing corporate interests to make their code GPL compatible, for tools and utilities it makes no sense at all in this day of truly social coding where entire companies are founded around the basis of social coding and put their software repos on Github for the world to access, use and fork off of.
And considering the current prevalence of the BSD/MIT Licenses, I think the greater community agrees with this.
Are you saying that with the rise of Christianity (hello dark ages) that viewed the use of any sort of practical medicinal knowledge and the dissection of human corpses as "devilry" and "witchcraft" had no effect on the general knowledge and practice of medicine?
There's a damn good reason why the Christian image of a witch depicts and old lady brewing "strange concoctions". And there's a damn good reason why "Doctors" were using leeches for damn near everything during the Age of the "Enlightenment"
It's because the barbarian followers of Jesus were morons without a fucking clue and we lost that knowledge and much more.
I just think its in everyone's interest if we take a few steps back and carefully consider what we are doing to ourselves.
I think it's entirely in some very well monied people's best interests. ObamaCare is step one.
We are well on our way to a Brave New World of Indentured Servitude to our Corporate Masters via Gov't Mandates to buy from them, to be spied on and controlled by them. over time, all Social Welfare programs will be replaced by ones that will be benefit not the people but the Corporations, and we will be Mandated to buy their products or suffer the Tax Penalties.
Health Care was first, Education Loan programs, Social Security and even Food Stamps will be rolling out in the years ahead.
Sure, if you think that reading should be an exercise in excruciating drudgery. That book bored me to tears, resulting in my finally giving up and throwing it in the trash.
John Carmack is moving on to bigger and better things. iD has done fuck all for innovation aside from building it's game engine. What titles does it currently have? Doom, Wolfenstein and Quake.

Excuse me, but I refuse to see those movie because OSC said that I SHOULD BE SHOT because I, while not gay, support gay marriage and accept those who live that lifestyle.
This is not me refusing to see a movie, throwing my copy of Ender Game and all other OSC books away and vowing never to read another piece of shit that that piece of garbage writes writes simply over his view.
I refuse to read, view, buy or otherwise support anything by him BECAUSE HE THINKS I SHOULD BE KILLED FOR HAVING A VIEW DIFFERENT FROM HIS.

Exactly! Why doesn't this information need to be transmitted to Ford, or to the NSA?

I bet Douglas Adams is ROLLING FURIOUSLY IN HIS GRAVE after what those hack Hollywood Screenwriters did to his most holy and sacrosanct scripture ... ohhh wait ...
Well, that screen writer having the name "Douglas Adams" is surely some freak coincidence.
