It isn't the same. The package would have been falling faster at 5000m than it was at ground level, and the impact onto a surface at that height would have been larger.
For this reason, landing on Venus is a doddle as 90atm pressure means you barely need parachutes. Surviving after landing is a different matter, of course.
I've been using Django for a while now on my web app, having moved away from home-brewed PHP. Very easy to use, and encourages well-written and elegant code.
As a counter-point, I built my web app on Django after messing with PHP for too long, and love it. It's clean, easy to understand and the documentation is pretty good - although I agree it could be better, but then it's free and I can contribute...
My app has been Django-powered for four years now and is fairly complex from a data point of view.
Imagine a giant *outline* letter Q (that is, the line in Q is the path) where the outer bit of the tail is the start and the inner bit is the finish. As you enter, following either left or right walls will take you back to the start.
"Special interest group"? To protect their interest, they are trying to enforce laws that are currently being broken. Seems reasonable to me.
Hopefully, this will deter the casual downloader who isn't particularly aware of the illegality of what they are doing. Obviously, determined downloaders will get around any block BT can put in place, but it sends out a message.
That isn't what the "loud" button did. It boosted the bass and the treble to compensate for the human hearing system's natural roll-off of highs and lows at lower volumes:
Exactly. The act is "to burgle". A "burglar" is the person that does the burgling. "burglarize" is the action of that person, so you could describe them as a burglarizer, I suppose. Next time I get burglarizerized, I won't know what to think.
I'm 38, and wear an inherited manual-wind 1956 Longines to work, as it looks smarter in a "vintage" way, and have an analogue automatic-quartz ("Kinetic") Pulsar for everyday wear.
Whilst I value sub-second accuracy in clocks - should all be radio-controlled IMO - watches are half-timepiece, half-jewellery.

I think you a word out.
And the author's considered response and explanation of the claims:

Note that Don has access to the original Venera raw data and isn't working from the usual poor quality photos.
Er, sorry. Try this newer page:

See this site for the best processed pictures from the Venera missions. Absolutely fascinating stuff those Russians did then.

(It is not true I'm a card-carrying member of the Pedant's Society. It's actually made out of plastic.)
I think you mean "Pedants' Society", unless you're the sole member.

I'm still waiting for the summary to finish...

What, when Chrysler were involved?

So 90% would still be left?
Windows was an X killer?

Well, one of them does. The other one's keeping quiet.

What? No, it doesn't. That's like saying that identifying a red car implies that all red things are cars.

Wow, interesting viewpoint there. Can't imagine many people suggesting that prostitution is morally sound.
My guess is that porn is the root cause of the OP's desire to get rid of the 'net in the first place...

Library of Congress = 745 miles of bookshelves (source - Wikipedia)
(1000/745) * 24 * 14 = 451 LoC/fortnight.
Wow, that's fast.
Tsk. May want to re-read the "tri"logy again.
"What do get if you multiply six by nine?"
Damned lameness filter wouldn't let me post the question in the canonical all-caps.
No, there's a low signal-to-noise ratio.
My PCs don't use Silverlight, but that's because they're running Linux. PC != Windows.
