1. Rape is legally defined and arm touching does not constitute "first degree rape"
Not according to University feminists. According to them, anything that the female doesn't want, even The Day After, is rape.
3. The point about drunk college boys seems unlikely to come up in a high school textbook.
Nowhere did I imply that they would write about drunken college boys. It's the philosophical attitude that counts.
4. The same thing could happen now since it's controlled by the textbook makers
Look at any textbook. They're all written by University professors. So whether it's this set of professors, or that set of professors or set, you're just as likely to get some bias. If you don't believe me, read any Howard Zinn textbook.
1) Upper management demands it, and keeps pushing for it. 2) Economics. When they start losing customers, and not winning new accounts because it looks old and crufty, then they'll make UI changes.
Ok, not "ever". But not in a damned long time. After Apollo, they became *very* conservative technologically, because they feared that any disaster would turn the public against them.
NASCAR should embrace the latest tech like NASA does, instead of old tech.
Forgot to mention that NASA never uses the latest tech. Ever. They're always more than a decade behind state of the art (that's what "latest tech" means, after all).
IIRC, back about 20 years ago, the Chinese released audio of a successful rocket launch a few minutes before the rocket actually launched. Big chuckle in the West. Reminded us all of Soviet fakery.
How in the hell does cheap foreign labor taking someone else's job undercut national and nationalist prejudices? That's just... silly.
The free flow of labor across national boundaries is *always* from cheap to expensive, thus undercutting the wages of the existing working class. That does nothing but piss off the existing working class, making them *more* nationalistic, not less.

Guess you didn't read the article.
This is /. Why would you expect that I RTFA?
Why in the hell would a foreign government want to attack that? It's not like Australian B-17s and B-24s need to know when there's clear weather.
Or... you could pay Facebook's taxes with it.
Well... the CEO is either right, or he's baited every hacker this side of Timbuktu into hacking those Barbie servers.
Good thing my daughter has outgrown Barbie!!!
Is the French government a known climate denier?
Or are they suppressing mass demonstrations for other reasons?
LOL.

Obviously Eeeevil Monsanto is involved. All right-thinking students and faculty at LinkÃping University must shun and harass these evil doers!!

But according to you, the company is expanding.
Who's to say they won't be uber-feminists who think that some slightly pushy arm touching by drunken college boys is first-degree rape?

NASA needs people who can write the assembly language of the chips on the Voyager craft...

How "latest tech" is burning dodecane?
Who in their right mind considers burning tons of dodecane (aka RP-1 kerosene) to produce tons of CO2 to be an "environmentally correct technology"?
STOP THINKING WISHFULLY, Mr. Science Guy!!!
First thought: what the hell does a Lucas Arts interpreter have to do with s/w development methods?

Is *not* an "off by one" error.
That's not the way to optimize profits, is it??
I bet that if you graphed out the busiest times for cell phone networks, they'd match pretty close to AT&T's old time-based schedule?
Why? Because AT&T wasn't stupid, and didn't just pull shit like this out of their arses.
Everything that is old is new again.

Don't forget this part: Immigration unnecessarily defers the collapse of capitalism, its final crisis.
This is really Planet Nibiru coming to invade us with their lizard-men!!!
But I guess the biggest point here is to ask what relevance this whole thing has to Slashdot?
I get down-voted every time I ask questions like this... :(
