That's what I think too, in fact the older kids were different actors even. Cutting away just before the top falls over is really just a last gimmick thrown in, to remind the audience that it's impossible to be sure.
You seem confused. He said C++ is complex, not C, and he is entirely right. Also, if you used to do Perl, you might like Ruby. It's no faster than Python, but I find it nicer.
Nope, active. When I went to see Avatar, I checked out the glasses: they had a small sensor at the front. Covering it with a finger while watching 3D made the image look the same as without glasses.
The number one reason for screens to be "blank" in a dark room is overexposure either by a bright screen or flash reflection. I'm entirely unimpressed by this non-story.
Separated from each other.. Do you mean that all users' files would be mixed together on a network share? That's not how you should do the mapping. Each user gets his/her own subdirectory (with appropriate permissions) on a network share, which is mapped to a drive letter based on the logged in username. User xyz gets a drive M: which maps to \\share\home\xyz. Then point My Docs of all users to M:\My Docs, and whatever else you might want to point there.
You can very well know how something is created or caused and still see the magic in it.
I think the point being made was that this song demonstrates all emotion and zero knowledge. A deficient song, in other words. Also, the example you gave is rather ridiculous.
I found the article to be insightful. It shows that there is no point in messing around with assumptions about names. Just put one field in the form that takes up to e.g. 128KB that accepts any string of data, including the empty string, and call it "Your real full name". Put in a dropdown for the encoding if you need it, another field for low-ascii transliterated name if you need something recognizable by most, and separate fields for official registered name if you really need that sort of thing.
Hardly a serious job: Find the loudest frequency in the stadiums (there's a minimum frequency, because the vuvuzelas are limited to one meter or less). Set your band reject filter with a steep slope around that frequency, +- half a semitone. Drop the gain on the reject band to -12dB or so, and you're done. For bonus points, tune a few notch filters to the loudest frequencies, likely corresponding to specific vuvuzela sizes commonly available.
In no way did I, while reading the comment in question, assume the term "American academia" meant that everything was fine and dandy everywhere else. It may be in some places, it may not be in others. I would assume I'm not the only one who didn't assume that.
Thus your reasoning that parent's reasoning is invalid, is invalid.
That's also why almost every non-fiction book begins with an introduction, and why you should always read it;.. it also gives you a clear idea of what the book's about. Next read through the table of contents. Only then start reading the actual book.
In the last non-fiction book I read, I repeatedly found myself flipping back to the table of contents, preciesly to get a better understanding of what whas coming, the bigger picture. In some books, the TOC is almost more interesting to read than the book itself.
If you want complete freedom, you go and live on a mountain. You will never, ever get that in any society, no matter what political system. Society = compromise. Deal with it.
No, that's not a solution. Limiting the the number of babies per mother means you now have two population problems on your hands, rather than one. Women will choose to have fewer babies as soon as it is possible. Health care, education, and cultural change will do the work without any limits, or sterilisation, or any of the other misguided ideas dreamed up by well-meaning people.
Quite the contrary, population control is best left alone.
The history of developed and semi-developed nations trying to manage their population size provides for some truly dismal reading. Meanwhile, the population across the world is getting older, because fewer babies are being born, because women in nearly every culture want to work and have a life, rather than pop out babies every year. As soon as that's possible, through education and increased life expectancy especially for children, birth rates drop.
Education, health care, and women's rights => stable population => stable society.
I do exactly this with Tomato WRT. QoS throttling for all unknown devices down to around ISDN speeds. It can be circumvented of course, but I don't really see that happening.

Nothing requires the full complexity of C++.

The cinema glasses are active sync as well.
You'll probably see it as flicker, unless they've figured out some way around it.

I'd say in the west it's what's called 'keeping appearances', it's just not as exaggerated.

Wha.. you represented someone at their own wedding? How does that work?
Hey, no need to defend sloppy writing so strongly.

+101 Funny!

HAND.
Nope. Close to half the world's population is living in a country with below-replacement fertility, and this will continue to climb.
Err.. it rather sounded to me like you weren't liking the situation in the west, and comparing it to China and the DPRK.
