Hahahah, while mostly that is true, i love the line at the end, reminds me of the "If i ever meet you, I WILL KICK YOUR ASS" kind of kiddies you meet online.
Rock on dude, and provide laughs at the same time.

QuickTime 6 Is Out

· Score: 1
I have Windows ME on one of my computers. It runs nicely, never crashes (none yet, and its been over 1 year), and doesn't chuck any spack attacks that i've seen. Its definitely better then 98se.
I would like to draw everyone's attention to something.
Recently, the slashdot editors changed the rules for people with low karma.
Now, people with negative or "terrible" karma can only post 2 comments per day, which is blatantly censorship.
This has forced all the negative users to post anoynmously, which creates more noise at higher levels, and drowns out legitimate AC's. I find this needlessly foolish, as I cannot listen to genuine anonymous posts due to pwp and random crapfloods. IP banning is pointless, because it is so easy to use proxies.
Please, allow the negative users no restrictions, so they move back to -1.
In case you didn't notice, I didn't support or attack the doctor's response, but thats another story.
I really have no wider issue about this type of database, but i was commenting on a very biased attack here from people who tend to think that all doctors are in it for money, are snobbish and all doctors behave like that one mentioned in the article.
We had viewpoints from a handful of doctors, and one case of a doctor not accepting the proper diagnosis. While that is lamentable, I would still venture that it is in a small minority.
Irregardless of that fact, anything that is a new idea or concept, especially when, as you yourself pointed out, dealing with humans and the potentials of life and death, should be treated with suspicion. While it certainly sounds successful, you will also have to remember a lot of doctors (yes im generalizing) probably are not too well versed in technology, and probably have a limited understanding of what it can or cannot do in a large spectrum of cases.
My original post was nothing more than a comment on the stereotypicalisation of doctors, and to try and express that they should be given a chance for a full explanation, as well as a study, results and discussion on the database. None of this occured (typical slashdot), and there were a lot of anti-doctor posts, mainly harping on the fact their unused to having a database.
The issues at large are still to be completely resolved, and the great-grandparent or this post took it upon themselves to blast the establishment. Personal attacks get nowhere, as my original post shows, as you responded with a knee-jerk reaction, not one that i would hope facilitate discussion (partly my fault).
Try to address my post more directly last time, and without little reasoning, posts do not stick. Im not sure who modded your post up to insightful, but I purport they typically acted in haste, much like yourself.
Having been to medical school and have MPH training, know several doctors personally in both academic, research, and in practice, taken health law as well as health econoics courses, I probably am far better versed than your insulting, cow'd comments.
This quote is pure gold. You attack the doctor's establishment for allegedly being holier than thou and snobbish, yet you hold the same attitude. You proceed to list what you have done (my, is that all?) and then shove it in my face as this therefore supports your arguments, and discredits mine. Pot and Kettle, perhaps?
If you are going to respond, respond to what my post is talking about, not a tangent to it.
You certainly are. What were seeing here is stereotypical attacks on doctors, due to the strict way the medical profession and services are dealt with.
Imagine for a moment that there was a database created that contained almost every single set of expressions and solutions for (insert your programming language here).
So instead of having software companies and hordes or programmers, companies can get their own software by feeding in to the requirements to this database, and it spits out the necessary code.
Now imagine the outrage you would have amongst programmers and software houses around the world, since they are now effectively redundant.
Just because some doctors are highly paid, and have strict controls on the medical services, doesn't mean their views and outrage should be held contemptable, until you have fully assessed the pro's and cons. You bet your bottom dollar slashdot would give programmers the benefit of the doubt in above situation, so why can't we give doctors some leeway and a reduction of ad-hominem attacks here?

Firstly, Milk has high calcium, and is almost a complete meal in itself. The only thing it doesn't contain is high enough amounts of iron, magnesium and unsaturated fats.
Your correct on one point. Meal size. Shitloads of studies show that the more you put in front of someone, the more they'll eat. Soft Drink sizes and meal sizes have tripled over the last 25 years, THAT is why everyone is getting fat. Combined with more luxuries and less physical activity, we have a winner.
The WTO and World Bank have implemented in many 3 world countries strategies for opening up foreign capital and investment.
This happened due to the third world countries taking out loans in the 70's, interest peaking at the 80's, leaving them with an unpayable debt. So, the WTO and World Bank said, ok, we'll pay of your debt, if you redirect money from infrastructure, capital works and health services into buying foreign products and opening up the market for global conglomerates. So instead of these countries increasing health services, they're forced to pay premium money to buying overseas goods, and therefore their own market collapses.
Capitalism's great, isn't it?

perhaps a rewrite of an old console classic *hint* *hint*
and unless the game is abandonware, get royally sued by the company that owns the "console classic".

I think a Gauss Gun is overrated, as i remember a research team built it in the early 90's, with little fanfair. It sucked.
About time they started back to lasers, methinks.
