  9. Because research in those areas doesn't follow the scientific method? Or areas considered more scientific, e.g. medical research, don't put out questionable research. *eye roll*

  10. The one where the people pretend to be researcher working for a research company. You know where the lie about who they are.

  11. Right...except where the broke California law. The anti-choice group did not identify themselves as such but rather posed as "researchers" looking for fetal tissue. Pull the other one Potsy.

  12. They weren't conducting interviews, they were posing as a research company, who was looking for fetal tissue for research. The actors misrepresented themselves.

    You mean donating. They weren't selling and never have sold fetal tissue. FYI the videos broke several California state laws and amount to harassment.

  16. Re:The Big Bath on Behind the Microsoft Write-Off of Nokia · · Score: 1

    Oh bull shit. Value of the company? Please we are talking about perception to investors. If investors see this as a good thing then the write-off increases Microsoft's value not decreases. The only thing a write-off decreases is the profits of the company at the time the write-off is booked. It may also reduce the company's tax liability - by reducing its profit. Considering most investors thought the Nokia acquisition was bad, and since they reaped little reward from it, the write-off was a positive thing.

    And yet still had market share. Microsoft killed Nokia. Nokia was still the dominate player. Without Microsoft they could have recovered. With M.S. they were doomed.

    Nokia was still the dominate cell manufacturer at the time. Microsoft killed off Nokia once Nokia was bought. They didn't ship a new phone for a freakin' year and killed off Symbian and their other product lines. Nokia would have survived it wasn't for Microsoft. Mission accomplished.

  25. Re:The joys of baseball on A Computer Umpires Its First Pro Baseball Game · · Score: 0

    Troll for the umpires I see. This is a problem. EVERY baseball fan would tell you this, especially in the post season where it matters. This is the one area where technology makes the most sense because there's no room for human interpretation - you know Dez Bryant's catch/no catch in the playoff game against the Packers. Instant replay shows him catch the ball. Refs saw the replace and ruled he didn't. A computer calling a strike zone takes the guess work because it would consistently call the strike through 9 innings, for every pitcher. Even if the strike zone was off, as along is it was off the same amount for every pitch, it would be accurate. As it stands the ump's strike zone changes from inning to inning and pitcher to pitcher. Greg Maddox had a wicked wide strike zone. Others, not so much.
