You are a complete douche bag. There, I started mine like you started yours.
Your utter lack knowledge is shining through. Manned spaceflight is a calculated risk. You do not stop any time lives are at risk or we'd never fly. You take steps to minimize that risk to an acceptable level. Sometimes that doesn't work.
I worked in flight design in Houston for 8 years, so my perspective is probably a bit more refined than the one from your armchair.
I can't help but think this is intentionally skewed for Apple...
You think? He actually include this point - I shit you not: Along similar lines, a very small but perhaps telling point: the price of every single Android phone I looked at ended with 99 cents - something Apple has never done (the iPhone is $199, not $199.99). It’s almost like a warning sign: you’re buying a platform that will nickel-and-dime you with ads and undeletable bloatware, and it starts with those 99 cents. And that damn rebate form they’re hoping you don’t send in.
That pattern seems to closely resemble the one where it was called global warming, then we saw record snowfalls and cold snaps, and now it's called climate change.
So... do nothing? He might be competing with more engineers, but he'll have a MS under his belt too. And who knows, he might end up doing some joint research with a local company during his graduate program that could lead into a job. The hardest part about getting a job is making the contacts, why not put yourself into a position where employers go when they need talent?
Even if jobs were to start opening up in the next year or so, I'm still screwed because then it'll have been a few years since school and I'll have begun to forget everything by then.
Don't be so sure of that - your engineering degree is just as much about *what* you learned as it is about that you learned *how* to think. If anything, the master's degree will buy you some time. Probably not a bad choice - an even better choice if your employer picks up the tab!
No, Europe should have its Galileo because it's ours even though the US has theirs and we're allies.
And by ours, you mean the EU, which isn't really ours when you're talking from a Norwegian perspective...ya know, not being a member of the EU and all.;)
Wait, rich guy risks 10% of his net worth, loses it, and gains it back slowly. Not-rich guy invests 60%, loses it, and declares bankruptcy. Hey not-rich guy, maybe the reason you're not making it is because you're careless with your money. Stick to lottery tickets, perhaps.
Errrm.... maybe because no matter how vile you think police are, in general (whether you want to believe it or not), rational humans who don't engage someone without provocation.

So I have my EMT-Basic, a course and certification that takes about 3 months to complete. I guess I'm a doctor, huh?
Nothing to do with Thrun and his resignation - especially considering he resigned in April 2011 before his online AI class later that fall.
Sore spot? Who's bringing up news from over a decade ago?
Good thing there are no douches on motorcycles...
Gee, if they had only called ICS version 5.0, your point would be even crazier, huh?
At the same pricepoint, they could have gotten 4G phones w/ front and rear facing cameras.
Yet everyone seems to be jumping into the assumption that it is govt property.
He knows where to buy the good tin foil.
Keep advocating discipline reform... and keep wondering why our kids can't learn shit in school.
For those of us considering moving to virtualization in the next few months, the discussion that follows can be VERY valuable.
Kinda like red light cameras - doesn't matter if it was you who ran the light, you're responsible for who drives the car registered in your name.

So you give them a free pass even though they never gave serious thought as to what they would do with that European Studies degree?

How about - Turnabout is fair play.

Ever heard of exhibitionism? Apple even bragged about time-to-first-picture.
Oops, sorry. That was me. I added 15% more ice to my freezer. Didn't think anyone would care, guess I was wrong.
Same here - after we pass them through the drill press a couple times.
Though - a more thorough approach would be to remove the platters, then attempt to answer the question: Will It Blend?
Maybe that's why Pennsylvania chili is so famous.
