Businesses make decisions all the time. There is no real rhyme or reason as to which go viral or for what reasons. All you can do is manage it when it does.
I've developed a certain sensitivity to Bennett stories: if the summary asks a stupid question that can easily be answered with a little thought, I check the submitter's name. Bingo. In this case, the answer is legacy business and the difficulty of negotiating contracts across publishers. End of story.
It's well known that young women fucking love getting hit on constantly by strangers at work in service industries. They literally cream their knickers at the thought.
Well, not so much. Physical attacks are extremely difficult on ATMs as they are difficult to move or access and usually have dye bombs. The usual approach in the UK is to steal a JCB and van and remove the whole thing. So something like this is definitely an improvement for the attacker.
So what? Shares don't have an exact price at any time. Sellers specify a range and so do buyers. If you can get in between them, so what? If you don't like it, narrow your spread.
Doesn't say where in the world he was arrested. Legal codes are not all the same, especially European laws based on Roman codes.
The bigger issue in the story is the suggestion that Microsoft simply opened up his Hotmail account and read his email. That is a much bigger issue, to me.
The UK has what we call whole-life sentences where there is no real expectation of parole (compassionate release is possible at extreme age, terminal illness, etc, but rarely granted). Usually only a handful of such sentences per year for unusually sadistic/sexually motivated murder, usually multiple murders.
You seriously want to repeat Zimbardo's prison experiment and want to get rid of ethics comittees to do it? I suggest you rethink your research interests, and possibly spend some time improving your scientific ethics.
Approximately one third of smokers never show symptoms related to smoking associated diseases. The rest die of lung cancer. No-one can predict which you'll be. The question is, how lucky do you feel?
Strictly speaking, all a pardon does in UK law is remove the burden of the sentence. It is not a declaration of innocence and basically means nothing more than a get-out-of-jail card. Historically it was only used where it had practical effect, where someone was subject to a sentence of death or was still in prison. More recently, it has been used for things like pardoning deserters shot during WWI.
A carrier? From a 777? Extremely easily. Most easily by sitting still and watching it miss you, though I think for safety's sake you'd probably put a couple of holes in it at a safe distance.
That said, I think your theory has to be a leading contender. This does look like a hijack and in the absence of demands, I can't think of many uses for a spare 777 (though the scrap metal value alone is quite high). Looking at where it has likely ended up, from there it has sufficient range to reach anywhere in the Western world.
1 - has been widely discussed in every possible forum for the last week. GIYF, but in short, conservatism, and difficult. 2 - Pretty low to get under defence radar, low enough to be seriously hazard for a plane that size. Made unlikely by 3 - if it was shot down, why did it first turn off systems and then do a 180 and recross Malaysia?
Presuming you specify the encoding method, the law of large numbers means that 760,000 MP3 tracks specifies a fairly accurate amount of storage, probably within the bounds of the uncertainty over 1000kB=1MB nonsense.

Being a marginal also-ran with a cash pile of $50bn doesn't seem so bad to me.
The counter argument is that by creating the product or service I create your demand - so in a circular way I do create the job.

Yeah, and good luck when they audit your ass. Chump.

Oddly enough, placebos are effective even when the patient is told it is a placebo.
Who let Vortex have sugar, people?

With a titanium club, golf is whatever the fuck you want it to be...
It is annoying that Twitter gets the prominence it does, but it is a medium especially well suited to journalists and media types.
I had a similar experience chatting to a Google employee. They were seriously pissed off.

You might think with your stomach, but not all of us, Sir.

Quite a bit further, actually. See here.

Law of Large Numbers, meet Rossdee. Rossdee, meet the Law of Large Numbers. I'm sure you'll get on.
