You finding an example of malware doesn't disprove the assertion that people are complaining about malware on the iOS App Store. Just as finding one criminal in the country's safest town wouldn't mean people are complaining about crime there.
iOS App Store has a minuscule amount of malware compared to it's size. There's orders of magnitude more malware on the Android stores.
We're not discussing the satellite measurements, we're discussing what's on the graph. They are not the same thing. Nobody's disputing what the satellite measured. There's a lot of steps between that and the presentation of temperatures on that chart, and they are very much in dispute.
That's only one of the many adjustments needed to the figures. And I don't know which if any have been applied to the chart you linked to.
It's perfectly reasonable to question the work of any scientist that declares himself to believe in ID rather than evolution. It shows belief is more important to him than science.
Read the Old Testament... The Christian God kicked lots of ass and would certainly have wanted his only son enlisted in the Marines if he was incarnate today.
That's why I spoke of the New Testament and Jesus. For sure the Old Testament God was capricious and violent. Which is why I didn't refer to the Old Testament or Jews.
Only John's version mentions a whip, and it says this:
So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
So he's a man that would drive sheep and cattle with a whip. For sure, I can believe Christians would consider it OK to drive animals with a whip. But carrying firearms and supporting a strong military? That's just not suggested by WWJD at all.
There is a group of us who do believe in God... support of gun rights, strong military, etc)
I've never been able to understand how some people manage to reconcile belief in the Christian God with guns and military.
When they as WWJD? What Would Jesus Do? Surely they can't believe that he'd carry a firearm and cheer on a strong military. That's just not the man described in the New Testament at all.
UAH is University of University of Huntsville, Alabama. Bible belt. The centre of moves to stop teaching evolution in schools for decades now.
And indeed Dr Roy Spencer, who prepared these figures is a believer of Intelligent Design in addition to his GW skeptic position. The figures he produces have been shown to need correction for many things, including decay of satellite orbits. With that chart coming direct from Spencer, it's not clear whether those corrections have been applied.
Yes, it does depend what chart you look at.
This is a demonstration of the very problem in the story.
Ever hear technical people talking about computers/sending/ packets? Or that a program "didn't like" it's input? Or that it didn't "know how" to process that particular protocol?
Computers do send packets. Nothing wrong with that.
The other two are anthropomorphisms that tend to be used to save having to give a real explanation to people who are less technically informed. Or perhaps just out of a sense of fun. It's no indication of "magical thinking".

Funny that you need to redefine the term "weather" to mean a 15 year period when faced the debacle of a series of failed predictions...
There's no "redefinition". I told you about the 30 year distinction because I understand what climate means and how it differs from weather. And it appears you don't. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/averages/
We need a strong fundamental shift in our lifestyles - stop eating meat - stop driving everywhere - stop flying in planes, stop consuming useless shit. No one - even global warming believers - seems to be willing to do this.
I know a few people who do that.
Personally I don't. I don't believe the answer is for a few people with the highest integrity to take action, whilst the majority don't do anything.
There has to be systematic solutions, such that everyone changes. The market always wants to go in the direction of more consumption, so those solutions have to come from governments' mandates.
It's either that or wait till the environment does turn to shit and non-sustainable resources are exhausted. And let nature put an and to it.
Not at all. Take empathy. Empathy is the process by which individuals subconsciously process the body language, words and way of speaking of another person, which causes their own brain to activate in the same areas as the observed person. As a result the person with empathy feels some degree of the same state of mind as the observed person.
People vary in how strong the effect is their particular brain, with women tending to have brains that have this ability more strongly.
Belief not required. It's not magical thinking. Just an everyday observable mental process.
It's also good because as as Apple has taken another step away from Java, even less use will be made of it. Thus hastening the day when Java is dead. Can't happen soon enough.
Was the list too big, your comprehension abilities too poor, or have you just got a Fox News like ability to deny what's there in front of you? Apple adds lots of new features.
In good design, what you take out is as important as what you leave in. Look at Windows and the PC for what happens when you are afraid to take anything out. You end up with a big pile of shit.
It's not a matter of learning to read you penis. It's a different press release. And the word "deprecate" was not withdrawn.
Basically Apple deprecated it's own built-in port of Java, and said go get it from Oracle. 3 weeks later they announced that they'd let Oracle have the pieces remaining from their now deprecated project. And that they'd help them keep their Java working with OSX.
The distinction is important, because it means that right now, it's Apple's responsibility to fix. As of Mountain Lion it's Oracle's. Apple deprecated it.

Facts cannot be left-wing or right-wing.. Only right, wrong, incomplete or misleading.
And if you're using a campaigning political news paper
as your source, they are likely to be wrong, incomplete or misleading.
I posted the temperatures from a primary scientific source. You're trying to contradict with a newspaper cutting from a propaganda source.
Your claim that there's been no warming in 15 years is false.
Should we bit wait until the 30 year period is over in 2030 to see if we have more than one data point to go on?
We don't need to. We have data going back way more than 30 years, so we know the climate trend is up.
Seriously, there aren't ANY scientists left that are arguing against GW. They only ague about it being caused by man now.
You demonstrate all too well the problem described in TFA.
You're trying to use a consensus argument. And on that basis of course AGW is real.
Checkmate.

Which is more important: economy or environment?
and the promised "hockey stick" increase in temperatures not been seen in the last 15 years...
That's just not true.
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v3/Fig.A2.gif
And note, climate is what happens over periods of at least 30 years. At 15 years you're still in the realm of weather.
But heck, the fact you're not interested in a serious discussion of AGW is underlined by the Muslim outreach comment.
You don't mention politics at all, so this is a pure guess. But would I be correct in speculating that you are a strongly right-wing person?
I shouldn't be able to tell that when you talk about science. But I can.

You don't seem to understand the boundaries of "magical thinking". Optimism, empathy and dreams are not magical thinking.
"Going viral" takes days. Nokia's various Maemo tablets were out for 5 years, from 2005. Never achieved any measure of success.

well... they removed some of the crashes i guess.

Deprecated is in multiple dictionaries with the exact meaning I used. Therefore you are unquestionably wrong.
You're also wrong about depreciated. That's not the meaning that is intended when software professionals use the term deprecated.
You must be a Java developer. And you're kidding yourself. It's in black and white.
"Note: As of the release of Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3, the Java runtime ported by Apple and that ships with Mac OS X is deprecated. Developers should not rely on the Apple-supplied Java runtime being present in future versions of Mac OS X."
