    And even more amusing is that most people realize that the republicans and democrats are basically the same when it comes to power and control. Only the details change. Yet many will still laugh at the libertarians or the independents. The herd mentality is to strong and I see no hope of the masses voting for anything other than what they know.

    Why would islamic fundamentalists want these? They prefer suicide bombers and standard weapons of warfare. The real people we need to worry about are the governments who will use this technology to "keep us safe".

    Are you that stupid? I've never seen a gun that was non-military claim to be for "killing people". I guess target shooting and hunting do not exist in your world. You need to get out more.

  8. Re:Or on Uptick In Whooping Cough Linked To Subpar Vaccines · · Score: 5, Interesting

    The vaccine debate is a religious one on both sides and your statement is evidence of that. The data suggesting that vaccines are working is overwhelming and trying to deny that they have worked is ridiculous. There is also risk to vaccines and they can cause harm and trying to deny that is ridiculous. The bigger question is whether or not over use of vaccines is creating a similar problem as the overuse of antibiotics. And in the process are we actually reducing our ability to adapt as a species to environmental pressure and stress.

    If the reasoning for her getting the flu shot is that she will present less risk to her patients then why not have her wear a full body condom? The argument of "protect the patients" is eerily reminiscent of "protect the children". I'm sure the substances in flu vaccinations are just as harmless as so many other substances deemed "safe" for use such as DDT, etc.. It's not like big corporations have influence in government decisions, heavens no!

    Imagine if Hitler, Stalin, Napoleon, etc were president. Would you be comfortable with the power they have? If not, the current president and congress have to much power. Period. You should always imagine a 'bad guy' in the seat of power and act accordingly because someday, the bad guy will be there.

    Ron Paul is a joke and yes he probably would keep to the constitutional limits, the problem is that he would more or less abolish not just the bad aspects, but the good ones and would in all likelihood shrink the government far more than what is required to bring things back into control.

    Translation: Yes, I believe in the constitution of the united states and I will follow its principles unless there is something I want from the government tit that it does not authorise. Then, I will quickly ignore the constitution and ridicule it as out of touch. Because I KNOW BETTER DAMN IT!

  16. Re:Yet Another on Mojolicious 2.0: Modern Perl For the Web · · Score: 4, Informative

    Mojolicious is a complete HTTP 1.1 stack. No mod_perl required. It has its own built in webserver, hypnotoad which can be used in production. You can install Mojolicous with a single curl command

    sudo sh -c "curl -L cpanmin.us | perl - Mojolicious"

    And three lines can make a complete "hello world" application....

    use Mojolicious::Lite;
    get '/' => {text => 'Hello World!'};
    app->start;

    Part of what make Mojolicous so powerful is Perl's syntax and expressiveness. I know it's hip to beat up on Perl these days, but perl is still way ahead of most languages in its ability to be expressive. The author of Mojolicous is a really good programmer and insanely picky about well structured code, consistency and test driven development. Hence, the framework is very easy to use and understand. This framework is definitely worth a look.

  18. Re:If only Americans had heard of parks. on The Mathematics of Lawn Mowing · · Score: 5, Interesting

    It's called peace and quite. Some crazy Americans believe that having enough space around you so that you cannot hear or see your neighbours is a good thing. Then, when YOU are ready to interact with people you simply go to some public space and interact. Just because some Americans don't want to live like rats in a city does not make them crazy. Some people don't mind the screaming kid next door, or the barking dog down the street but some do. Also, it's not a question of how much resources each person uses, it's a question of how many people are using them. No amount of conservation will offset unrestrained population growth.

    by definition, those who practice such things are not Christians.

    Who's definition is that? Maybe you have not read your bible lately?

    Cursed be he who does the Lords work remissly, cursed he who holds back his sword from blood. (Jeremiah 48:10 NAB)

    And when you decide to actually do gods work, here is where you can start...

    If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you. You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst. (Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB)

    These are just a few of HUNDREDS of examples in the bible of god promoting death and murder.

    Agreed. It is always amazing how "the religious" lay claim to promote and police "morality" when in fact they themselves are the least moral among us and only show compassion for "fear of gods retribution" if they do not. sickening! the good news is, contrary to what the "majority" say, they are not the majority and the sane world of people, who believe in observable, testable reality are growing in numbers every day. In a few hundred years, we can only pray that the "religion" will only be a small bloody chapter in the history of humanity. Yes, it will be replaced by something else, but hopefully we'll have religious fanatics that believe in fairy tales that at least have a chance of making sense. Unlike the current crop of religions that are all so unbelievably idiotic that it's hard to believe these people can even talk and chew gum at the same time, much less make rational observations of reality.
