I completely agree that most media is overpriced, and that the crap makes the product far less desirable. Which is why I haven't watched a movie in a long time.
If you have a CS degree and an MBA you would be well positioned for upper management. But with just a CS degree you shouldn't expect to get beyond CTO. I do worry when I see salesmen getting promoted into upper management though; they're good shmoozers, good at selling themselves, and can't be trusted at all.
the officer simply asked him why the car was radioactive and was satisfied with the explanation, this sounds like an example of the system working.
But remember the incident last summer in Cambridge when someone called the police to report a possible break-in? Police investigated and found a man in the house who was screaming irrationally that he had been racially profiled and refused to identify himself or let the woman who was also in the house speak. The officer took him in on a disorderly conduct charge until he could be positively identified. Afterward a well known "constitutional scholar" called the police action "stupid". This was clearly another "stupid" act, unfairly profiling radioactive people.
When I had a security clearance "neither confirm nor deny" was what we were instructed to say when asked what we did. If the affiliation with Google is classified then that's the right answer here too.
...if you're into that stuff. I prefer bluegrass music though.
Flausina hosts multidisciplinary projects, giving a special focus on the digital art projects and electronic/experimental music. It' works as an open and dynamic space that welcomes exhibitions, workshops, conferences and events.
Have you ever watched one of them being used? Most DOS programs are astonishingly fast; press the Enter key and it's ready for the next command. We're so used to spinning busy cursors we've lost the memory of instant responses. Why give that up for slow eye candy?
Only because fools like you have been led to believe that by the corporate owned media
Also because the presidential election has been swung at least once and arguably twice by third party candidates in the past 20 years.
In 1992 Bush thought he had enough support to shift toward the center by being open to the idea of some tax increases with the economy humming along after 12 years of Reaganomics. But Ross Perot came in from the far right and siphoned off about 20% of the votes. So Between them Bush+Perot got 58% of the vote and Clinton was elected with 42%.
Some would claim a similar thing happened in 2000 when Ralph Nader drew enough votes away from Gore.
Both sides want to keep the interest rates low (at least in an election year). The only debate is where to get the money to subsidize the loans. Cut spending or raise taxes? This vote just forces Reid to negotiate instead of starting debate on the Democrats' bill without negotiating a compromise first.
Earlier this month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recognized Microsoft as the third largest purchaser of green power in the U.S., purchasing more than 1.5 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually. This is enough green power to offset 46 percent of our electricity use
Does MS pay extra for it? Or is this just a feel good thing? "We requested that the electrons we pull off the grid came from windmills". What difference does it really make since the total amount of energy used is the same whether MS uses "green" energy or not?
Suppose if I'm a small independent inventor with a patent, and Conglom-O misappropriates my patent.
Well, that's basically the opposite of this article (which is patent trolls crushing you for misappropriating their patent). But I kind of agree, maybe it's time to abolish all patents, not just software. Then the little guy who wants to start a company can go head-to-head with the likes of Oracle - whether he's the inventor with a new idea or a start-up with a better implementation of an API.
The second is to reform the corporate structure of larger companies to include some directors elected by consumers, rather than just shareholders. Not all the directors, like in the Cooperative Group, and not even a majority, but just a small portion of the board — say one third.
Ahh, here's what the guy is really after. Find a way to stir up support to go after them ebil 1%'ers. If the proletariat doesn't get a major voice in how the capitalist dogs run their money machines you'll lose all your friends on Facebook.
Read my original post. I'm very close to people who have gone through this, I know what I'm talking about. Schools make nothing off delinquent borrowers, banks don't want them, government doesn't want them. It's in everyone's interest to have the loan paid off, even if it's paid off slowly or payments are deferred for a time. Really.
Most likely the affected companies told DHS to pound sand. It's in their interest to protect their networks, it's in DHS's interest to catch the purps.

according to Pirate Party founder Rick Falkvinge, the judge in the case has a history of corruption
Yea, this is plenty of evidence that the judge is corrupt. Nothing more is needed (or even offered) to convince me. Why would I be at all skeptical?
This is the third time you've posted the same freaking article. We get it. It's been discussed. It's not news anymore.
And it shouldn't be 9 lines anyway. Someone doesn't know how to use OR in a boolean expression. Looks like they were trying to get their LOC metric up

Who did Massachusetts beat besides other unionized states? Is there any state that doesn't have teacher's unions?
I rest my case.
You also don't know how to read a chart. Kerry 54%, Bush 44% - looks like a Democrat landslide to me.

1) Get a degree with minimal job applicability.
You could've stopped right there. Everything after it is inevitable when #1 is true.

I'll try to make my sarcasm more obvious next time...
1 If it's Harris' data Twitter's terms of service are irrelevant
2 This isn't a search, it's a request for specific information, same as any other subpoena
3 If it's Twitter's data then the law is kind of unclear since he obviously sent the tweets from New York

It's pretty easy for moving water to move large rocks. Their "weight" underwater is far less than in air.
The extreme anything will usually be composed of nutjobs. Left, right, religious, socialist, whatever.
However, to say that these people make other extreme groups look sensible is absurd.
But note the the linked article is really an opinion piece by a journalist who specializes in "radical" causes. So take it with a big grain of salt.
Most student loans are issued by banks. The government subsidizes some and guarantees some, but doesn't loan directly.
