I'd have rather have a legal precedent set VS a rule that can be changed back.
I hear you, but let's not forget that the supreme court has a very spotty record when it comes to enforcing the bill of rights. I'm not sure I'd like to roll the dice on them upholding the fourth or fifth amendment.
Want to know the key difference between you and Gallileo, sparky?
Gallileo was a scientist, who followed the evidence to his own conclusions. What you creationists are, is anti-scientists, and all you have to offer is a very long-winded and self-righteous "nu-uh!" to everything we know about biology, geology, cosmology, logic, and so on.
Sorry, but I have no duty to treat a murderer the same way I would treat an innocent person, even if they've served their sentence. The German parliament made a poor decision to pass a law protecting a murderer from the disgust of the public.
Not sure about the tutorials, but if you want to write SLANG code in QC, just use the "GLSL Shader" patch. The code is edited in the "settings" pane of the inspector panel.
Heh. No, you should go read Henry Hazlett, and try to explain it to yourself. The Keynesian nonsense has embedded itself very deeply into your tiny little mind, and you can't even tell the difference between money, currency and capital.
There were crises and price bubbles even before the central banks (Tulip mania in Dutch, anyone?). Capitalism is more than capable of producing bubbles.
Banks have over-issued their notes for as long as they've existed. This is not solved by gathering all of the counterfeiting and fraud into one central authority which is able to compel us to accept their notes. It's better for banks to fail individually.
But being 'fiscal conservative' during crises is _guaranteed_ to screw everything up.
Nope. More debt is not a solution to the problems of existing debt. It only postpones and increases the scale of the mess.
Something that keeps tripping me up with GL/SLANG is that it's close enough to C that I keep forgetting that it's not C. Fortunately, when I write SLANG code in Quartz Composer, the compilation happens instantaneously as I type, so I can't go too far wrong before I know there's a problem.
Folks, "fiscal conservatism" just doesn't work during crises.
What utter crap. The central bank creates the crises in the first place, and the best thing you can possibly do when a crash comes is get the government the hell out of the way, as Zimbabwe has just finally done.
I've got a 45' HDMI run going from a wall-mounted projector into my attic, spanning my living room, and dropping down into the opposite wall to my receiver. No problems whatsoever, even at 1080p/60.
One other problem with HDMI is that although they have a nominal max cable length of 15 feet, you're lucky to get it to work if the cable is over five feet.
There was a crucial difference - abandonment of the gold standard.
Ok, I'll concede that Roosevelt compounded the damage, far beyond what Hoover had already inflicted. My point is that Hoover did not sit around and do nothing, as the standard mythology claims.
Says current international law. This was all hashed out when Quebec was proposing to separate from the rest of Canada...and how much of the Soviet debt did the Balkans assume?
Wouldn't this application exactly the kind of crap users should be protected against?
Of course it is, and you can bet that Apple's investigating it right now. If it turns out that this vendor is violating the terms of the App store, those apps will be yanked.

Forming opinions and assumptions without meaningful evidence helps no one.
The given situation is that the people in question are murderers. Did you miss that subtle little point?

You have a duty to not assume they're still bad people,
Like hell I do. I can assume whatever I care to, with or without your approval.
who are you to judge?
I'm a person with the right to form my opinions according to my own standards. Who are you to order me not to?

Yet it's pretty much in the same ballpark as the laws against discrimination based on race, gender, sexual orientation...
Nope. Not even close.

States powers come second to citizens rights granted by the federal government
Stop right there. The Federal government does NOT grant any rights. We institute governments to secure our rights, which pre-exist any government.

the recession ended in 1933
That's a bolder claim than even Roosevelt's propagandists were willing to make.
The fact that the economy was back in shape at the end of the war
That is not a fact. Ask any of your older relatives who lived through that period when rationing ended.
