  1. Close. on Ask Slashdot: How To Start Reading Other's Code? · · Score: 1

    It's actually "How to Start Reading Others' Code?"

    You put the apostrophe after the s, otherwise, it's only one other that the code belongs to, which is just strange.

    > if sony dont implement

    OK.

    First of all, it's "don't", not "dont".

    And second of all, it's "doesn't", not "don't".

    If you're going to be communicating with adults, please at least try to master the intricacies of fourth grade English first.

    I know this to be true because a UK scientist told me so.

    they're = they are

    in THEIR eyes, they're "superior"

    Only one physicist?

    Physicist**s**, not Physicist.

    There is a rather huge difference between singular and plural in English. Singular only means one of any type. Plural means more than one.

    "Great pay but they expect perform ace now."

    What? By "perform ace", do you mean "performance"??

  7. Bad poster. on Genomics Impact On US Economy Approaches $1 Trillion · · Score: 1

    It's "Genomics' Impact on US Economy Approaches $1 Trillion".

    Without the apostrophe after the s, Genomics has no relationship to the US economy, since it's not possessive. Come on. This is fourth grade English.

    That is a VAST overgeneralization.

    If it made "learning as simple as waving", I'd wave myself some organic chemistry or advanced thermodynamics courses.

  10. This actually happened to me around 1990 on Facebook Suffers Actual Cloud In Oregon Datacenter · · Score: 1

    In the computer section of the UMass Dartmouth Library back around 1990, we had a really humid day one spring/summer inside the Library. There is a part of the library that is open several stories tall and glass windows let the light shine in. We actually had a few drops fall within the library that day. Luckily, no computers were harmed in this event. Super strange to be in the middle of one of these events, that's for sure.

  11. Keiser is just a disgrace. He needs to yell his point more often. He obviously subscribes to the approach of "repeat your position loudly and people will believe it to be true".

    There is something completely wrong with that guy.

  20. Re:They saw this coming for ages... on Main US Weather Satellite Fails As Hurricane Season Looms · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Bush and Cheney lied us into a war while not protecting US "within the borders" interests. We (Bush) borrowed more money than ALL OTHER PRESIDENTS COMBINED BEFORE HIM to invade Afghanistan and Iraq.

    Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11.

    Our country's infrastructure needs to be maintained and updated, research projects need to be funded, basic "running of the country" has to happen. Instead we borrowed over a trillion dollars to invade a country that has nothing to do with hurting us, while ignoring the requirements of funding our country's maintenance and having a financial buffer to protect from any financial calamities.

    And we had Katrina, the stock market collapse, the real estate collapse, the tech bubble bursting.

    Our National Guard had equipment and personnel diverted to serve OVERSEAS. They exist for exact circumstances like Katrina.

    It's criminal. Bush, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Dick Army, Alberto Gonzales, Rove, Bolten, Libby, John Yoo + a few more should be all be tried for treason. What took place and what Bush was largely responsible for putting in to action was a grand dereliction of duty, massive incompetence and misappropriation of power and authority to the nation and the American people.

    Anyone who comes in and has to clean up after Bush has their hands full. Clinton left Bush with a lot. Bush left Obama with a lot to clean up.

    Bush and Cheney should really be tried for treason. We KNOW we have infrastructure we need to rebuild. We HAVE KNOWN THIS. It all was ignored so we could go after the man who Bush said "tried to kill his dad".

    Sure Bushy. Great. The US armed forces and the US budget is at your disposal for reasons like that.
