As someone who used to work with research mice A LOT, I can tell you that captive mice (yes, the normal "wild-type" mice) are considered very old after 18 months, but in the wild they live around 4 years. My theory is that the real wild-type mice, ie the ones out in the field, get lots of excercise and have reduced caloric intake. The captive research mice have all the food and water they could ever want 24/7 and live in tiny boxes with no exercise wheel. Yes, the captive mice don't get diabetes or atherosclerosis, but they're still not living as long...
Either that, or they're so inbred it makes GoT seem tame!
Not sure if joking or trolling, but you're an asshole either way. Attending to career so they can provide well for the child doesn't seem like procrastinating to me. It sounds like good and reasonable planning.
That, and their customer support is really awful (the actual software is mediocre). It doesn't handle moving states to change jobs very well. It kept trying to slap me with an entire year's worth of taxes for one state. Customer support was non-existent (see numerous Intuit fora).
I wonder why China never thought of securing their systems more tightly. Surely they must have realized that retaliation would come their way at some point, no? I mean, aside from the fact secure systems are usually preferably to ones that are not...
Quit your (please learn the difference betwen your and you're) bitchin'. What type of school are you talking about? I've seen medical school stats and white males are in 3rd place behind Asians and white females in GPA and test scores. That probably holds true for most other types of schools, as well. And yet...white males are pretty much the major group at most medical schools, corporations, hospitals, etc. I am a white male and not a minority, BTW.
As a relatively young MD/PhD student I've noticed that there are relatively few Americans in any of the PhD programs at my university. My perspective is from the biomedical sciences, but still. Most are Chinese or Indian students and most of the American students are already planning for industry, consulting, or some other non-research job.
I would also add that e) stressing about writing grants every few years and progress reports for those grants every year - is a deterrent for continuing a career in science.
Is there a reason they designed the phone to look like a remote control or a weird pager? At least the other phones have some added capabilities to make up for the uncomfortable form factor. They might as well have put some more thought into making it comfortable to use in addition to ease-of-use.
People get up in arms when it comes to RACIAL profiling, which is stupid and ineffective. BEHAVIORAL profiling works wonders. See Ben Gurion airport for details.
The terrorists keep winning. I'm pretty sure we've done just about all we can do to protect ourselves without severely impeding our basic rights. Locking the cockpit with a bullet-resistant door and only allowing passengers to the gate (after screening) ensures we'll never have a 9/11-type attack again. Everything else is just really making flying annoying and more and more cost/time prohibitive. Basically, they keep winning despite not killing anyone.
Why define a service company based on what hardware it uses. They're all communications companies and should be subjected to some grand unified theory of communications regulation (which would include net neutrality, I hope).

Ditto!
Is 15 IQ points really a meaningful difference "in the real world'?
Now we can get back to to the slippery slope. What about killing off girl embryos or blacks or obese, etc etc.
That's unpossible!
Or you know, the majority of us could be actual good guys (and gals) and actually do something to fight back against this horrid behavior...
Women are human beings. And YOU are an ass. There, fixed that for you.

Sounds like a good use for interrogation rooms...

Pew! Pew!
Sure sounds like some kind of phishing scam to me! What are we paying these companies for again?
Is there a useful purpose for this list in the first place? It isn't likely to useful to THAT many people...
This is obviously the "killer" feature of the phone!

This /. so hopefully no one here is either an actor or gullible.
That includes you, CleverNickName!
Sorry?
Actually, passengers are the second-worst thing about flying. Think about how quiet the plane would be! No screaming babies, no smelly people, etc...
Disturbing? I actually expect it!

True, but that doesn't stop NTP from suing and wasting everyone's time and money.

Yes, I am aware of the existence of the FCC...

Funny. Spoken like someone who's never been paged at home before... And about the healthcare debate too!
