If the person steals someone else's gun, I'd say there is a faily high change that he wouldn't know how to change the magazine in the first place. At the very least it will take him way more than 3-4 seconds claimed by gun "enthusiasts".
He could offer to move to a nicer house in a nicer part of town, and sell his house to Sprint. Better, he could offer to sell his house to AT&T and let them open a ATT Wireless store in his house - after being screwed by Sprint, perhaps their frustrated customers would be looking for a change.
Because ATT is the carrier people turn to when they are looking for a good service.
Sometimes my wife freaks me out with this sort of stuff. No, she says it really quiet and does it rarely, but... Like, main character's baby falls off a cliff to a certain death and the superhero rushes to the rescue, she'll be like: "Ooh, I like her shoes, I should get ones like these."
Dunno why anybody would need sound or flashes at all. Well, except for when you are home, that is. Otherwise it just annoys people around, while not helping you very much.
I didn't say that there is no difference. The studies say that the difference in productivity is mainly influenced by the environment. Read the study please.
Top result for me is Wikipedia page for beer. (not surprised here at all, my primary use of google is to search for wikipedia articles), then some beer news (WTF) then some places nonsense and then some results I don't understand what they are (didn't bother clicking through). Sam Adams was on the first page though.
When it comes to developers' productivity, numerous controversial studies stress the differences between individuals.

From TFA, first fucking paragraph:
They found no relationship between a programmer’s amount of experience and code quality or productivity.
This study's results have been misinterpreted to a completely ridiculous degree. They found that environment, i.e. level of noise, "population density" of the office, etc., was the deciding factor. Please read the study and stop proliferating this myth about super-human programming ninjas. We are way more equal in our skills than some egomaniacs would like to beleive.
Exactly! They should describe the modifications in detail the same way they list all ingredients and not just say "contains taste enhancers" or something.
Because simple label would be greatly misleading just as say writing "contains taste enhancers" on a box: it is too generic. There definitely *are* genetic modifications that can kill you and there is no doubt that some companies won't do the proper testing and probably create some harmful modifications.
I'm all for labeling, but lets create some sort of database for modifications in the same way there is a database for taste enhancers (E123) and list them as ingredients or in special section/whatever.
Just saying GMO/non-GMO is propaganda (kinda like Organic/non-Organic these days). Saying what exactly was done to the thing is informing the public.
Yes, I agree that at the end of the day this just boils down to "make everybody pay for what they use", which is kind of defeats the purpose of social security and taxes. However, I think that another goal should be to discourage the abuse of the system.
Why tax only high-mileage vehicles? Everybody uses the road, so everybody should pay. They do have a point, but blaming people who use efficient cars is just plain stupid. Tax everyone, based on miles driven + weight of the car. Because heavier cars damage the road more. Then it will probably make sense.
Well, since we are talking about governing country here, we can invest some more into the system. I'm pretty sure minor data-mining will allow us to split users into groups and see how different groups vote/moderate particular issue.
I feel like there is something to this idea, but I have work to do and can't elaborate more:)

Pretty sure that was sarcasm.

Gun-related crime rates haven't been this low since 1964.
And are still too high for any civilized country standard. You don't think this is a problem?
Of course not, because this is not what he heard on fox news.

You shouldn't have bought such a fashionable scarf then.

This. A thousand times this.
Oh, sweet baby flying spaghetti monster, not this crap again...
Yes, I want to live in the country where unhealthy people stay the fuck out of food service jobs.
Oh yeah, that makes a huge difference!

What they are trying to do now is kinda stupid.

My bad, I actually misread your original comment and thought you are talking about desktops.
I'm guessing the smaller it gets the more value are in actually putting this thing together.
It's never happened with Laptops.
Wat?
It can be used in countries where carriers don't shit on their customers, for example.
