You don't get filthy rich punching a time clock and collecting a paycheck from your employer every other week.
Unless your employer is someone like (early) Microsoft (or other successful startup). Many people running their own business would love to make as much as they do.
Hmm...yeah, but how well do you think that disclaimer would fly prefixing the aforementioned hypothetical article on whether light skinned people are smarter than dark skinned people - if the article were written by a dark skinned person?
Because a commentator usualy writing for www.dark-skinned-people.com and talking about his wife being a condescending white woman probably is dark skinned.
So where is the "We love Bush" list from the Union of Unconcerned Scientists? Are you telling me Bush can't find some wildly partisan PhDs to tell us everything is easy-peasy?
In a paper to be published in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics, Guido Birk and Harald Lesch of the University of Munich, Germany, and Christian Konz of the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Garching report an investigation of exactly what happens when the field is drastically reduced or vanishes altogether.
Their simulations show that the solar wind - the million-kilometre-an-hour stream of hydrogen and helium nuclei from the sun - wraps itself around the Earth in a way that induces a magnetic field in the ionosphere as strong as the original field.
"We were quite surprised about its effectiveness," Lesch says.
Sure, and they could also say "Enter your credit card information on the next screen." Or "Throw your computer out of the window to activate the hidden celeb screen saver." Or they could just target Windows where they don't have to depend on the user's stupidity.
Very good points. In addition to that, right-clicking on the computers at work is so damn slow because the anti-virus software does some checks on the content of the menu. I wish the mice there didn't have a right button so my workflow wouldn't be interrupted for three seconds each time I accidently clicked it anyways.

No, when Microsoft does it, they do it to allow their apps to directly do something with their OS, giving them an edge over any competing apps - and those competitors use them anyway, they sue them. When Apple does it, they don't even use them themselves.
Actually, the (same) one in Bonn (Germany) also bloomed in 2000 and before that they had 6 blooms since 1937. Maybe the guys in Connecticut should ask for some gardening tips;-)
You're the one blindly buying CDs from bands, telling yourself that "they don't suck, every track is just grand, and I even got it cheaper, for only $15.99". Sucker.
But then you are a looooser, 'cause you don't use XP, and every Windows advocate knows that all the previous versions of Windows are always shit compared to the latest one. Well, at least you can use something as advanced as a USB stick, not like those NT 4.0 lusers.
I wish people praising CLIs would be forced to work with a true CLI (that is without the fancy shell enhancements even the DOS prompt offers) for just one hour.

I'm no specialist on the American political system, but doesn't "Bill Clinton's signing of the bill" mean the Congress made the decision?
Yet those who signed the list are all scientists, and many of them not members of UCS.

So your point is: We can't have truely clean water, so let's just dump everything in there without further thought.
To be more precise: it makes 64 bit integer number crunching faster (as opposed to floating point).
Sure, and they could also say "Enter your credit card information on the next screen." Or "Throw your computer out of the window to activate the hidden celeb screen saver." Or they could just target Windows where they don't have to depend on the user's stupidity.
Sure. Bit with Windows, you don't even have to come up with such a clever trick.
... that creates you.

And Sherlock has been able to save searches (search criteria) since - well, before 2001.
OTOH throwing up a blue screen takes much less LOC.

"I know I am probibly going to get modded down for this"?
Because that's an almost sure-fire way to prevent that from happening.
Clinton didn't blow up the embassy, nor did he order to do it.
Well, it looks just like an ordinary Coke can - to the people who mistake wedding parties for a bunch of terrorists.

A German did, and Sony finaly admited it.

I don't listen to bands, I listen to music, you brand victim.
