Interesting philosophy; would you mind explaining how a public employee is supposed to know which of the thousands of stupid rules they are not supposed to enforce ? By not enforcing the rules they are jeopardizing their careers, since the same ass-hat parents who sue for taking the candy away and assigning detention, will sue for allowing their child to eat a candy bar.
What you could of done was just took the candy away and told the kids they can't eat that during school hours.
The phrase is 'could have' not 'could of'; of course you may (archaically) contract 'could have' into could've, (which sounds the same as 'could of'), but this is now considered improper in written form. None-the-less, had you spent more time in class paying attention to your English teacher, instead of concocting means of evading the rules, you would know this.
Define the white-space characters.
space, horizontal tab, vertical tab, line feed, form feed. (what about carriage return?)
Oh, but wait, there might be another definition.
Any non printable character (e.g. !isgraph() - hmm, isgraph has an exception for the space character, D'Oh! )
Understand why whitespace as a control construct is idiotic now ?
You seem to be forgetting that the US military does not act autonomously, they take orders from POTUS.
If you want to moan about the actions of the military, at least place the blame where it belongs.
BTW, if you were to bother actually researching, you'd quickly discover than the U.S. military is far more efficient than almost any in history, and also the most 'well behaved'.
You could argue similarly that the mechanical apparatus (a sequence of levers, springs, and god knows what other moving parts) which delivers the pedal push to the injector control (or carburetor) is a huge failure point. Next thing you be demanding that we should be responsible for modulating the fuel pump.
The fact is that moving parts have a much higher failure rate than solid state devices.
1.) When the ball reaches the fluid it momentarily stops
2.) Just as the balls is completely below the fluid line it appears to stop again
3.) As the ball travels through the fluid, the INNER wall of separated fluid remains surprisingly straight for a surprisingly long period of time, yet the OUTER wall appears to be in constant motion
4.) Just before the ejected column of fluid collapses, a bright flash (a bubble perhaps) appears within the 'dome' of the ejection. This appears to change in intensity, becoming brightest just before the column collapses.
I'd like these particular events explained: e.g. The balls apparent momentary stop as it reaches the surface.
wo of the things that surprised me the most when I arrived was the widespread use of checks in supermarkets, and that there were still quite a lot of people my age who believed in god
Other than the cashflow benefits of not paying things immediately, I honestly can't see what benefit they have over other payment methods.
If you send cash through the post and it gets lost/stolen, you've lost money.
If you send a check through the post and it gets lost/stolen, you haven't lost anything except your time. You are protected against fraudulent cashing of the check, and you can always issue another check.
Because the pirates can only demand ransom (which is what they actually want, not the cargo), if the crew is alive, and the ship is undamaged (or minimally so)
I'd stay long enough to change planes and head for someplace nice. Try a cheap flight to Malta, or Cyprus. Life's too short to be in England in the winter.
How about the fact that New Orleans refineries are only there because some back-handers ensured they stayed there, not because it was somehow a superior location.
I've never seen such attacks in the real world. On a particularly hard hit system (which I also have access to), I have never see more than a few hundred failed logins per day. At that rate our V34y_l0n6-9455w0rd is going to take hundreds (of thousands?) of years to brute force.
Granted, we aren't Yahoo, Google, or Matt Drudge, but we get hit pretty good traffic.
who's the weirdo who thought it was a good idea to express fuel efficiency in liters per 100 kilometers. Surely it makes more sense to express it as distance per unit of fuel (e.g. kilometers per liter) rather than fuel per random fixed distance
I think you need to watch the MIT lectures given on this topic. Sorry, I can't find the exact link, but I watched them about a year ago, so I know they're available online. Basically, this is a non-issue, which is spun out of control by people who know nothing about spent nuclear fuel, or how it may be made safe.

...I think I understand the root cause of the idiocy of it.
It was written by "Management professors" - WTF ?
Actually, you don't have to follow the rules.

Then, IBM can leverage the sheer number of community developers to make the products usable.
There, fixed that for you.

Perhaps it's because I've been reading English for significantly longer than you that my tired old eyes have begun to play tricks on me.
Besides, the misread headline meme is almost as old as slashdot. And somebody has to keep it alive.
...gravity as gravy ?
What about the half a teaspoon of cold poison for dinner ?

And the two are related

Time to crank up those brain cells.

How can anyone patent a graph ?
I don't care how small it is, or whether it has axis labels, or what, it's a damned graph (or chart, which ever word you prefer)
Of course it would have been too easy to ask the locals near Stinson Beach, or Dillon Beach.

I don't think that calling a tooth an organ is very much of a stretch.
Especially considering that bones are organs, and teeth and bone are very similar indeed !
Hmmm.... I call bullshit on the link between the two events.
Come clean, your friend was having a wank on public transport when he was arrested, wasn't he.
