Because the entire point of the article is to work out why it doesn't work!
But sticking to your pet theory why it doesn't work and refusing to even check a possible different reason looks too much like a DA trying to get a conviction instead of the guy who did it.
Corollary 1: The smaller the studies conducted in a scientific field, the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Corollary 2: The smaller the effect sizes in a scientific field, the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Corollary 3: The greater the number and the lesser the selection of tested relationships in a scientific field, the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Corollary 4: The greater the flexibility in designs, definitions, outcomes, and analytical modes in a scientific field, the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Corollary 5: The greater the financial and other interests and prejudices in a scientific field, the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Corollary 6: The hotter a scientific field (with more scientific teams involved), the less likely the research findings are to be true.
Couldn't be the people here who can't read. This EULA bans people who can't tell the difference between the desktop version of an OS, and an embedded or device version. It bans people with any WinCE (or whatever Microsoft calls it this season) device, people with a Linux handheld, with a game console, etc. - but not 99% of people with what most people would call a "laptop".
7 countries with higher GDP per capita than the USA, all of them with lower CO2 output per capita. Not counting those states with slightly lower GDP/cap, but way lower CO2/cap, like the UK.
Actually, thanks to a quirk in how the GPD works, the cost in decreasing CO2 would also increase the GDP, for a much better result. I wonder why all those economic and climatology expert Global-Warming-nay-sayers don't see that.
Of course they would, because it uses a faulty metric that's in their benefit. A better measure of what's being done with one's energy consumption isn't per-capita, it's per-dollar-GDP. With that measure, the US is far more efficient than (for example) China and India, whose ability to claim decent per-capita energy consumption is entirely due to the tremendous difference between their urban middle and upper classes and their gigantic rural farming lower class.
Sure, but the states in the EU have around half the energy consumption per $GDP than the US. What's your excuse for that?
Use unique strings (as many as you like) in the Comments tag. Like "-don't play unless I say so-" or "-don't include in shuffle-". Then build intelligent playlists accordingly (Comments doesn't include "-don't play unless I say so-"). Errm, better use something shorter like "-DPlay-".
So would you have a problem with 'medical research programs' killing houndreds of blacks and countless others like mental patients, prisoners, soldiers?
On the other hand, ICC is generally lauded for its ability to vectorize code in a manner that lends to performance increases thanks to the SSE/2/3 vector units on Pentium chips.
Yup. The FORTRAN compiler often does some good autovectorization. Show me the C compiler does too.
Hell, why not look at this? Ignore the Mac part, just look at the x86 results. Looks like ICC doesn't even beat Visual C++ for most of the tests they did here (at least not by much).
Apart from that, you can do some wierd-ass stuff with AltiVec (and to a lesser effect with SSE/MMX/3DNow) that can never be generated by autovectorization.
It doesn't help much if you want to build a high-end desktop/server/notebook computer. Are you going to use automotive chips in it? Apple's move at least means the 970 and 74xx will get more expensive. The XBox CPU seems to be an exclusive deal, and nobody knows yet how Cell will actually perform for general computing tasks, nor if it will be SMP-able.
So this page is wrong? As well as this? While they can't agree on the exact release dates, both claim end of June 2002 for the Windows version and mid-march 2003 for the Linux (public beta) client. Not to mention Bioware's Linux Client News Archive.
As for the Mac dates, I relied on these IMG stories:
and (from the first link): "20 Jan 2001 This game will be released simultaneously for Linux and Windows." Hey, maybe they just forgot to mention the Mac version.
And then I even showed you a graph the explicitly shows a steady rise in solar output at the beginning of the 20th century. Rising till mid Century, where it has plateaud and stayed there until the current date, with an additional 10 year oscilation.
You "show me" a graph were the "Global Cooling" you babble on about happens during a time where the sun output increases, and the resurgence of warming happens when it stays the same - and I'm not supposed to find your arguments silly.
There are no measurements of the sun's output that would explain the rise of global temperature. Period. Yes, the sun's output changes over decades, and I have never claimed anything else (why else would you have asked me to prove there is no even longer term trend -> strawman) - and the global temperature follows in oscillating around the growing trend. There is nothing that shows it has to do with the growing trend of global temperatures. I am fucking annoyed with you guys and your completely bogus reasoning.

Don't be so hard on her.
He's Ed Wood, back from the grave!
Ohhh, that's unfair. Microsoft also removes tons of stuff it touted as an important feature before ;-)

Even when going that way - no, not everybody.
GDP per capita
CO2 per capita.

Err, you might want to check the difference between cause and effect.
Actually, thanks to a quirk in how the GPD works, the cost in decreasing CO2 would also increase the GDP, for a much better result. I wonder why all those economic and climatology expert Global-Warming-nay-sayers don't see that.

And while we're at it Time Cube. Why, yes, they lough at me because I'm like Galileo, not because I'm a crackpot.

Yeah, if only they had sold some old Transpirons. That would have kept the stampede at an acceptable level.
Yes, from the CD of the Windows version.

Sun output didn't continuously increase for many decades, unlike global warming. Instead changes slightly around an average. . Compar the last link to this: image shows the instrumental record of global average temperatures.
It's time you clowns learned that lack of correlation does not imply causation.
You "show me" a graph were the "Global Cooling" you babble on about happens during a time where the sun output increases, and the resurgence of warming happens when it stays the same - and I'm not supposed to find your arguments silly.
Yes, thanks for pointing out how dumb you are, because those statements don't contradict each other.
Show us the fucking correlation!
Your claim, your proof. Come on, shouldn't be too hard. Tell me something about number of sunspots being negative.
