If you believe in equality but don't think the patriarchy is a thing, then you need to spend a few days as a woman or minority. My understanding of gamergaters (and libertarians at large) is that this is a group of people who don't understand privilege. You fit my perception to a tee.
Who's to say there isn't a cupcake in orbit around Pluto? I'm not saying there is, but the question has to be answered.
(Or less sarcastically, what would lead you to suggest even a possible link between vaccines and IQ? If anything, fewer lifetime flu infections may be linked to less brain swelling and lower risk for dimentia)
Garbage collection and bytecode are two entirely different concepts..NET has GC, so does Java.
Both also compile to bytecode, but.NET libraries can also be compiled to native code at installation time when installed in the GAC. This has no bearing whatsoever on whether or not it is garbage collected. It always is.
Funny how the "meritocracy" tends to disproportionately favor upper-income white males. Taller than average ones, at that. Sometimes you need what appears to be an unfair policy to counter-act unconcious bias.
Compared to the last cabinet, the minister of science is now actually a scientist. The minister of defense is actually a soldier, and the minister of transportation is a friggin' astronaut. I don't see much to complain about.
Evolution, the observation that life evolves, is a fact. We can see it happen. The theory of natural selection is our best attempt at explaining this observable fact.
When we'return speaking evolution in the context of education, we specifically mean evolution by means of natural selection. Aka Darwinian evolution. Which says nothing whatsoever about the origins of life.
I'm not sure why that matters. If they're building a wind farm that offsets the power going into their DC, then who cares if the electrons are mixed together? Geez.
Your post made me curious about expansion, so i read the wikipedia article.
It sounds like expansion is only occurring on a very large scale, where matter isn't gravitationally bound. So things outside the milky way, andromeda and virgo cluster are expanding away, but there is no expansion within.
So your hypothesis is wrong. I've often wondered though if there is some fosilization phenomena that could cause them to grow over time.
Back in the Real World, we use PowerShell to automate all sorts of processes. Particularly provisioning VDI. while lots of non-MS stuff has PowerShell APIs (VMware, Citrix etc.) sometimes you want to execute a remote command on a device that only supports SSH. Like power up a blade PC, or add a static route to a switch. Sounds like they're going to make that possible. Awesome!
The answers in this thread are telling, and they don't paint a pretty picture.
Here's my hypothesis: Geeks (myself included!) tend to be lone wolves. We like autonomy, and hence have a strong belief in personal responsibility, often at the detriment of shared responsibility. See how many libertarians are on/.?
Geeks also tend to have girl problems. They're often intimidated by them, but also want and can't have them. This leads to resentment. Women seem incredibly powerful and unattainable, so when they claim disinfranchisement, we are incredulous.
In the sciences, geeks rule. Women who enter this field have to be fun, approachable and totally geeky too. Not many women fit that description. But many who don't are otherwise fantastically gifted, intelligent women. And we're missing out.
The whole "run government like a business" mantra always drives me nuts. Government is not like a business. If your business isn't profitable, cutting jobs can make sense. If your economy is in recession, cutting jobs will make the recession worse. Things like mergers, aquisitions, etc are equally poor analogies for how a nation state operates.
C# has actually evolved into a wonderful language. The async stuff, lambdas and especially Linq are great.
Xamarin-wise, there is a lot of code sharing possible using portable class libraries, and Xamarin.Forms shows promise, if immature. The project in working on has probably 95% shared code and appears completely native.
This plan is literally to hold industry accountable via regulations, rather than throwing public money at the problem. Do you just cut and paste this reply into any vaguely political thread?
nothing mysterious - there is no conspiracy here. Economists moved to "core inflation" because things like energy and food are extremely volatile. Inflation should refer to sticky prices, ie things that tend to resist going down again once they go up (or vice versa). Wages are extremely sticky, then things like cars and houses.
Wages are currently flat or even decreasing, while housing prices have clearly decreased. Car prices are pretty flat. There is no significant inflation going on here.
the government doesn't lie about the inflation rate. It is caculated by a multitude of different organizations, both private and public. The reason prices haven't risen despite a 300% rise in monetary base is that we're stuck in a liquidity trap. A bit of inflation would actually be a good thing, because the current malaise is a result of debt (both private and public), and inflation lowers the value of said debt, prompting people and corporations to spend again.
implying that Krugman advocates war or tragedy either illustrates profound stupidity or an intentional misinterpretation of the concepts he was trying to illustrate. Maybe you've been mislabeled a troll simply because your posts are unbelievably naive?
that's my thought... Christopher could have lent all sorts of help on the first 3 flicks, but instead he just spent his time trying to derail them. Copyright should expire on or shortly after the artist's death. Intellectual property inheritence is even bigger bullshit than intellectual property patents.
So you don't appreciate the social aspects of an MMO. Why exactly are games not an appropriate place for socializing? Clearly you appreciate the social aspects of slashdot.

it doesn't say "bringing about equality". It says "measuring equality".

Being a white middle class male who never learned about privilege growing up is why you're a Libetarian.

You guys are so jaded, it's insufferable.

As long as by "complex abomination" you mean completely standardarized switch syntax with tab completion and integrated help.

obvious troll is trolling
I am. Inheritence is bullshit. It just perpetuates a lazy aristocracy. I've told my parents to die broke, and I will do the same.

For a populational average, BMI is a valid indicator of body fat percentage because the edge cases should cancel out. For individuals it is not.
They could do a study specifically on body builders though, and compare the results with this study.
