  1. Re:They are all paid too much on Are Bankers Paid Too Much? Are Technology CEOs? · · Score: 1

    Every worker is expected to bring more value to a company than their salary. Otherwise the company would have no reason to hire them. The salary isn't really closely attached to the value that a person brings, but what the person can negotiate in the market.

    What's wrong with distorting the free market? The free market isn't magically good. The idea that the free market takes care of everything is just faith.

  4. Re:Good news, needs more science on Egg-free Flu Vaccines Provide Faster Pandemic Response · · Score: 1

    An article written for a specialist like you would bore the majority of readers who don't have that kind of background.

  5. Re:Vegan Flu shots? on Egg-free Flu Vaccines Provide Faster Pandemic Response · · Score: 1

    How do you know bees don't suffer when they are smoked out of their colonies and their larval chambers are cut open and honey removed?

  7. Re:Don't understand sporting video games... on E-Sports Gender Gap: 90+% Male · · Score: 1

    I don't think everyone can slam dunk in real life. Does that answer your question?

  8. Re:Taxi drivers 90% male on E-Sports Gender Gap: 90+% Male · · Score: 1

    Men are dominant in all risky professions. Taxi driving is dangerous.
    E-sports is risky for another reason. You could lose, and go home with nothing.

  9. Re:Women in Esports are there on E-Sports Gender Gap: 90+% Male · · Score: 2

    If you are talking about Scarlett, she doesn't count, because we don't have a very complete grasp of the underlying reasons for the gender gap. Therefore, we must allow for the possibility that genetics plays a role. She may be socially female, but biologically male. God, I'm going to get a lot of flak for this one.

    Oh God. DRM. In your brain.

  11. Re:Heat and noise.... on NVIDIA Launches GTX 750 Ti With New Maxwell Architecture · · Score: 1

    Power consumption is heat generation. If you decrease power consumption, this should also reduce noise since a slower fan can be used.

  12. Re:Depends on China on N. Korea Could Face Prosecution For 'Crimes Against Humanity' · · Score: 1

    It's important for DPRK to make a move every couple of years or so, because War is Peace.

  13. Re:They're finally going to do something. on N. Korea Could Face Prosecution For 'Crimes Against Humanity' · · Score: 3, Insightful

    The thing about dictatorships is that it really should only take one bomb to finish the job.

    Bombing the countrymen really is a bigger crime against humanity.

  14. nothing to lose on N. Korea Could Face Prosecution For 'Crimes Against Humanity' · · Score: 1

    It seems to me that the effect of the warning is to prevent any sort of change from taking place. I mean, if people warn you that you will be prosecuted for crimes against humanity, you are going to clamp down harder on dissidents to keep that from happening, wouldn't you? You wouldn't go down without a fight.

  15. prove that the program works on A Mathematical Proof Too Long To Check · · Score: 1

    I don't see why you need to go through the fuss of the 13 GB file. What was the algorithm used to make the file? Prove that the algorithm works. That's your proof. (Run the program a few times, so the probability of errors in the output is close to zero. Remember that the probability of the computer making a mistake (cosmic rays, transistor noise, etc) is smaller than the probability of a human mathematician making a mistake.)

  16. Re:Nope on Ask Slashdot: Anti-Camera Device For Use In a Small Bus? · · Score: 1

    Most CCD cameras will see infrared if you remove the infrared filter.

    I'm pretty sure the questioner doesn't have a military class R&D budget.

  18. ip addresses annoyingly long on Whatever Happened To the IPv4 Address Crisis? · · Score: 1

    As a gamer, I find typing in four 8-bit numbers painful enough. And you want me to type in eight 16-bit numbers?

    Slashdot is social media.

    That's overgeneralizing a bit, though mental health is a huge factor.

  21. Re:3% Grad Income Tax 'Bump' on Financing College With a Tax On All Graduates · · Score: 1

    Consider engineering. Any engineer could probably learn the techniques on the job, but the university degree is good for weeding out the folks who probably can't learn the techniques on the job.

    Hey now, we don't need more knowledgeable people in congress. They'll be more effective at fucking over the people. You think the bankers that wrote the laws didn't understand what they were doing?

    It's only logistic for small values of R. For large values of R, population is chaotic and could climb very high and then crash.
