    I see so you want the policy to be in place so that you can be outraged that it happened instead of preventing it from happening.

    Really?

    She was intimately involved in the decision to go to war with Iraq and spoke publicly in support of it.

    She was an integral part of the Bush administration's campaign of lies surrounding the war, working to further public support of the war by lying about Iraq's non-existent weapons of mass destruction.

    Rice played a central role in affirming the "legality" of the Bush administration's torture program.

    Rice not only spoke in favor of the Bush administration's warrantless wiretap program and expansive domestic surveillance program, she authorized the warrantless wiretap of UN Security Council members.

    But you keep thinking that a extremely brilliant and accomplished individual, having obtained her Masters degree at age 20, isn't smart enough to ask the right questions or able to go toe to toe with Cheney or Rumsfeld....

    They are saying that computer programming equal computer science and people focus on the gender part? Really? That's hardly the issue. The point is Google and other corporations are not interested in Computer Science and are only interested promoting people to become code monkeys. That's the real issue. They don't care about education. They want a cheap workforce.

    Why don't I believe you. If you can spin this up with a SQL database in under an hour, then you have your answer. The fact that you repeat "scalability" and "reporting" leads me to believe you do not understand what databases, in particular SQL databases, can do.

    Which is why he might as well use a flat file. If he has structure, then an RDMS is what he should use. If he's not going to bother to organize the information, then a flat file would be perfect because all you are after is junk anyways.

    NoSQL is a flat file, so it's the same thing. He's not going to be organizing the data in any meaningful way with NoSQL, it's just a dumping ground.

    The Obama administration announced in 2011 that it had concluded Section 3 was unconstitutional and that although the administration would continue to enforce the law while it existed, it would no longer defend the law in court. In United States v. Windsor (2013), the U.S. Supreme Court declared Section 3 of DOMA unconstitutional under the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment.[1]

    It's pretty easy when you don't do any research.

    He donated money to a cause that tried and succeeded in passing proposition 8 that denied right to people.

    And if a corporation decided it's in the best interest to give the CEO the boot do to public outrage, they can do that. Happens alot. I don't hear you morning the loss of GM's CEO.
