Why would you be surprised that students taking the same class used the same variable names? I would be surprised if they didn't. Anyway, if only 14 of the 18 passed, I doubt "all" of the students had the same answers on "problem #6." You're giving the wrong group the benefit of the doubt here.
The representatives are afraid Microsoft will leave Washington if it doesn't have its way. They probably assume the tax revenue from MS employees is better than nothing.
The big mistake is to think that these financial CEO COO XYZ jobs require talent. Some of the people in these positions are extremely talented, but you shouldn't compare them to things that really require talent, like academics or sports. By and large, it's just a bunch of white guys hiring their friends into ridiculously high paying jobs with no skills other than being good at socializing with other white guys. Sorry about the egregiousness, but somebody had to say it.
It's not as clear as you think. The post you respond to probably thinks that having non-Latin TLDs will increase domain registrations, which might require more IP addresses. Not all new registrations will be redundant.
Maybe it's just a heightened sense of privilege? Compare the suicide rates of American whites to African Americans (twice as many white suicides). If you think you're entitled to a certain type of life, it's very depressing when you realize it's impossible to achieve. Though African Americans have a much, much lower average income, live in poorer neighborhoods with more crime, get disrespected by cops and other authorities much more, etc, you might expect more suicides.
The difference between Theo and Linus, is that Theo will call you a dick if you're acting like a dick, but Linus will call you a dick if you politely disagree with him.
but I get five hours of battery life on a Macbook (last year's model), so I think Apple doesn't lie about its stats (because they don't have to?). Despite all the claims that Macs are overpriced, I think these are among the cheapest non-netbooks you can get with great battery life. IMO, laptops which last only 2.5 hours on a battery should not be sold.
Students will learn to rewrite quadratic forms in a variety of standard formats for no reason whatsoever.
I guess he's exaggerating, since he must be aware of the deep connection between algebra and geometry which is realized via manipulating equations. And this provides lots of approaches for a good teacher. I dunno, he just comes off as a garden-variety teacher with strong opinions.
Switch to a virtual terminal whenever someone is watching. Tell them you disabled the GUI because no L337 hax0r uses one. You can even offer to teach them some Unix commands, since they will likely decline (this boosts their perception of your sincerity). Be sure to have green text on a black background for more cool points:)
...You sum up all the reasons why I gave up on linux after ten years and switched to the Mac. Finally a consistent environment and no hours of fiddling to get simple things working....
The same people would probably scoff at hearing a nonwhite person claim that racism is prevalent in the U.S. Nevertheless, my 15 years on the net has taught me that this is the only place where you get to hear what white people really think of you. What they say is not surprising, but that they're saying it is pretty enlightening.
The importance of running to early Homo is, of course, conjectural. But it does make sense: few other animals are capable of long-distance running, and none can do so under a blazing sun. (Wolves and hyenas, for example, require cold weather or nightfall for long-distance hunting; otherwise they overheat.) Endurance running might have set early humans apart from the pack.
Or maybe other animals never think to carry a water bottle.
The corporate executives take their paycheck as a 'bonus' for tax reasons.
Last time I checked, bonuses were taxed at a higher rate than regular salary. But my income isn't in the stratosphere, so maybe their tax is different.

That's PRIMUS POSTUS.
This will have absolutely no effect on IPv4/IPv6.

Is that in addition to the 1.5 hours a day you waste reading Slashdot? :)
No they aren't. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NLmiuyLa98
All they had to do was bribe TPB for a small sum to shut down, but they instead paid lawyers even more (probably).
Funny, we've been a customer of Microsoft's for 20 years and have yet to experience this "raping" you speak of.
I don't think you were supposed to take it literally.
The overhead of tracking tax codes down to the city level (and keeping up to date) would be overwhelming.
They could put them all in an online computer database?

The variant I heard was a little better. The joke is the same, but as the waitress walks away, a busboy whispers to her, "plus C".

How does the Giganes Jade service compare to Google Groups? You can get occasional jpegs?

I guess you never tried Debian.

Increasing pay will increase the applicant pool, and if the competition for jobs is fair, schools will lhave better teachers.
the less he gets paid, the less he gives a shit

I was an air warrant. The FBI agent waived it as he entered the premises.
