Seau was a great person AND a great football player. He did a lot for kids in our community. He was well-known for his intensity and charm; it is so sad that he was feeling down with no way out and this is the result. Rest in peace.
Your AC post is a good one. I learned something here. We travel with our kids & have been through customs with them, luckily without this sort of incident. I feel more knowledgable now, and if this were to happen while boarding, I would ask that a custom official weigh in on it. Would suck to miss a flight due to some overzealous action on part of the airline. Even worse if this happened on the way back...
Not that simple. I believe these guys were politically appointed. Correcting a politician in public (esp. in Italy) would surely mean loosing one's situation.
I met you in the eighties; my college days. I bought an 11C calculator when I could barely afford to eat, learned the stack, and had much respect for the engineers who built that tech. My first analytical chemistry job was running a 1050 HPLC, and I still remember how well-built that equipment was. You brought that stack paradigm to chromatography in chemstation software, which I thought was fantastic. I STILL have an HP2100M laser printer that I believe will out-live me. In summary, your engineering hardware used to be the standard in more than one field.
I don't post much any more on slashdot but I've got to comment here.
There is no way in hell biking cost are equivalent to driving costs in any typical analysis. I also drive/bike/train to work and have been doing this for several years so I speak from my own experiences, but I am also as a trained chemist; - the whole argument is just silly IMHO. If you can bike to work, even just a couple days a week, you should. Better for your health, better for the environment. period. Leave the whole stupid argument about the carbon footprint comparisons to those with nothing better to do.
It will only effect geeks that tell and receive insults, because they are the only ones that will be able to reference this.
So to all the people that don't read Slashdot : "Yo momma is so fat. If she gained another pound, she would collapse in on herself and become a black hole."
Yet according to Caveon Test Security, I'd be a cheater.
According to the article, according to Caveon Test Security, you might be a cheater.
So you'd be investigated. And you'd pass investigation, because you didn't cheat.
Why would he automatically be exonerated? If the administration is willing to take action with weak circumstantial evidence, what suggests that they would somehow switch to using good judgement later?
When I was an undergrad in the early '80s books were an expensive add-on cost to education that sometimes seemed completely worthless. My daughter is now a college sophomore, and I see that nothing has changed. If anything books are even more expensive than ever.
Course material should be public domain and electronic.
As has been reported numerous times, the amount of apparent signal loss is inversely proportional to signal strength. Apple was over-reporting the signal strength at weaker levels, so the apparent change from gripping was more dramatic than what was really happening. i.e.,
wrong s/w in weak cell: 4 bars drops to 1 bar (people freaK OUT!)
right s/w in weak cell: 2 bars drops to 1 bar (nobody freaks out)
The phone is more or less equal to other phones, and a slight improvement to the 3Gs phone in terms of making and keeping calls in weak signal areas.
...Or do you mean people who are saying the exact amount of oil isn't relevant to the task at hand? If the former, I agree with you, but if you mean the latter, you may want to reconsider.
Here's the thing. We want the answer. We don't have to justify why. BP is responsible to us, and we want the fucking answer.
If they had hit my child in a car, and I asked 'how fast you were going,' and their answer was "what does it matter let's just call the ambulance" I would destroy them right then and there. period. Irrational or not. I deserve the answer and I don't need to justify why.
IF that guy was really married, I want to see the look on his wife's face when she finds out he is a porn hound, and he told STEVE f*ing JOBS that she defends porn on a thread that will get a lot of eyeball-time.
"Death gong?" "No sign of Flash in sight?" I don't quite see how this news equates to any such hyperbole.
I just checked videos my friend put of me drunk out of my mind "singing" karaoke Killers songs (no, I will not provide a link)...'
but most people tweet about mundane crap, not what happened on Capitol Hill. i.e., signal to noise will be horrible for trying to decipher What the Hell Happened...

nah, man. but if you've put enough majorana particles in the air, it can get pretty hazy.
That would be purple haze... (jimi hendrix reference for you youngsters)
S/He should have had enough sense to realize carrying on the contraption was a bad idea. Hey perfesser, ever heard of Fedex?
dude, you've got 16 hours, surely you can outrun it.

DUH!
So long HP.

way, way overreacted to parent. Original comment did not say do not party, only implied it is unwise to boast and post pictures of it online.

People hear *nix and, if they think anything at all, they think "server."
Or they think "I know this!" and then check quickly for Velociraptors.
mods are asleep, this was funny. Good reference to you sir.
exactly.
Can't believe there are 700+ posts when all that should be said was in your post.
... those same people will continue to use their pet's name as the password to their online bank account.

well, my dog's name just happens to have 11 chars, three of which are digits and has some random capitals thrown in to boot. Where is the problem sir?

This is your boss, please see HR immediately.

just a guess, but maybe the accelerator and brake are closer in a prius than in the buick?
