Assuming y'all are stuck w/ Outlook at work, set your default to Rich Text. Then write a few lines of horrificness into your signature, and format them as white text.
Nobody but the algorithm will see it.
Yes, yes, I know that everyone who reads your mail as plaintext will too. It's just a dang joke, 'mkay?
Drug use (and ownership) should not be a crime. Period. Drug addiction and overused should be treated as the medical problem that it is.
But then again, refer back to those recent revelations from ThoseInPower in the 50s thru 90s that they selected the drugs they wanted illegal based on the demographics of the user base.
Because radical Muslims killing other Muslims breaks that stereotype of "All Muslims are bad, mmmkay?" I mean, clearly, the fact that these terrorists are targeting people of the same religion... we can't spread that around, it might make people think that "holy shit, it's actually not about religion."
You may be correct that not all Muslims are "bad," but your reasoning fails. When Hitler attacked Stalin, that hardly made Stalin a good guy -- contemporaneous USA propoganda notwithstanding.
The objection is that this is a serious deviation from a longstanding and well-understood interface. In all other cars, you can tell by feel or by position of the shift lever whether it's in PARK or not. Making the driver depend on a display -- in a different view angle -- is a crappy kludge to cover a serious design bug.
I recommend reading AskTog's columns on UI design, as well as Joel Spolsky's articles on UI and general app design. You'll see the reasons this joystick-shifter design is a disaster.
And you can't extinguish a Lithium fire. You just have to wait until it burns out on its own.
What utter nonsense. Lithium is not burning via some Li + Li --> Li_2 reaction in the absence of other elements. Remove the source of molecules (e.g. water) that lithium's combining with and the fire stops.
It's a good thing you decided to post as AC, because if I was going to post what you just posted, I would hate it if people thought I was as dumb as your post.
Can't resist pointing out that here's a case where being as dumb as "your post" is equivalent to being as dumb as a post.
Because the algorithms governing orbital progression are very well known. You watch the thing for a while , fit its path to the function, and run time in reverse (JUST IN THE SIMULATION) to see where it came from.
Heck, it's been decades since amateur astronomers did this with Soviet satellites and discovered the launch sites before the CIA did.
Given how many "stealth Win10 install" patches are lined up in all our "windows updates" notifications, and that plenty of people on/. and elsewhere have stated clearly they've just plain shut down all updates rather than try to weed out the crapware ones, it's pretty clear this vulnerability will remain on plenty of machines for a long time.
Helium was named as a metal by mistake, because it was first discovered in the spectrum of the Sun.
Seeing as the name of the sun god is/was "Helios," not to mention that "helum" would be weird, I'm skeptical of your claim. I would think that "helium" is the closest pseudo-Latin form of the Greek word.
From now on, my systems are going to require that all passwords include an emoji character.
Crack that, you rotten blackhatters!
And while we're ranting about capitalization and special characters (%$*&#), why not just give up and realize that everything inside a computer is 1s and 0s? Require all passwords to be a string of at least 110111110111 1s and zeros.
" [GE} aims to replace a once-a-year conversation with rolling feedback."
So if in fact what they plan to do is hand out X% raises (where X >> epsilon) whenever the situation warrants either CoL or pure reward, that's fine w/ me. No reason to wait 'til the next year. But if "rolling feedback" means a $10 DunkinDonuts card, then yeah, I'm outta there yesterday.
I rather doubt it. If they collected pricing data from historical rides, e.g. by surveying customers, that's not copyrightable. But I don't see that anyone has any right to examine before the fact, which in effect is the same as asking for the details of Uber's pricing algorithm. You can collect stats on where your company shows up in a Google search page, but you can't ask Google to reveal how they calculate your company's ranking.
LabView's a massive disaster. Yeah, nice cool GUI with wires and boxes and whatnot, but no way to read code to debug; no way to know what really is inside a box,...
The main problem with putting math software on a touchscreen device is the difficulty of entering numbers or commands accurately.

Very much this.

You probably see the word "voila" spelled horribly without even considering it.
No, we deliberately misspell it "viola" because the viola is the Joe Btfsplk of the orchestra.

He should have gone for trial by combat..
Should he have gone with The Mountain or The Viper as his champion?

bfd, really

I tend to use a philosophy of "less is more"
Actually, less is more than more.
Just ask any csh jock.

Big Green Energy?
I can see their spokesperson now. He used to shill canned vegetables, but has moved on.
Is this base gonna be more like Starfish or
preparation for Seveneves ?

Depends whether you put the whitespace before or after the "p".

Ever reach 50 and try looking for a new job? Companies only want to hire young and dumb
And yet, over the last year, my company has hired at least as many over-50s as under-30s, and quite a few over-60s.

If this functionality leads to an app which can detect being in a pocket, and defeat dialing when the phone is in a pocket, I'm all for it.
It's straddle buses all the way down.
I think you meant "up" , not "down."
But I have an Even Cooler Idea (TM). Hang loops from the underside of the bus. People in cars can deploy a hook-arm to attach and get a free tow!
Then there is the pig without a conscious...Hillary
