And while I'm at it, state-level statistics are more reliable than national-level statistics because of a little thing called Simpson's Paradox, which is taught to you in elementary statistics.
Oops, didn't finish one of my statements. Problem with non-linear post writing. I meant to say "conservative states implemented policies that made it very hard for a woman to get an abortion".
That article makes the same mistake Freakonomics does though: assuming that Roe v Wade legalized abortions in every single state. On the contrary, many liberal states had legalized abortion already, and many conservative states implemented policies. Either way, broken-window theory isn't very right either--the same drop happened in San Francisco and they didn't use said plans. What led to the drop in crime was the fact that people were doing less crack. (Although the whole better police tech thing probably helped too.)
Irrelevant. You see, when a company falls apart, it doesn't dissolve into thin air(Enron being an exception, and that's just because it was almost entirely a middleman company--actually, things like the stadium they owned and such were sold off)--it gets sold off to other companies. If this R&D is going anywhere somebody will buy it.
Remember the days when Republicans were the party of fiscal responsibility? I think very few people alive remember when Warren G. Harding was president.
Actually, he means the Roman alphabet, which is based off of the Greek alphabet, but has different letters. I guess you could say "Etruscan alphabet" but nobody does.
So basically, he's promoting the development model that already underlies most successful FOSS products. Design by one person in private, revealed, improved by the bazaar.

And that's why over half of the posts are about what Google's doing in China.

You see, Google got to power on its own merits. Microsoft got to power on being at the right place at the right time.
Now how good do you really think humans are at this?
My first experience with GM was that I got out of this guy after it got hit by a speeding SUV.
Thing is, if GM goes under, it'll probably sell all this R&D stuff to somebody else, somebody else who can afford all this R&D stuff.
You can tell it's American because he didn't exit the car in a body bag.
And the consumer PC market is unreliable because of the whole "inhomogenous hardware" thing.

They'll be much less likely to get hepatitis or tetanus?
Was one of your "0+" people the Lehigh bio professor who's spouting ID?
You mean never? Because the "Microsoft used to be cool" myth is getting really annoying.
Social Darwinists are the lowest scum of the universe. They're the only ones I'd support doing a Holocaust for. I'm dead fucking serious right now.
What's emacs?
Those are scare quotes, not quotation quotes.
By the end of the universe, "decimate" has drifted in meaning to "cut into ten pieces".
Then why does it take a small swing up after the redesign, then a huge swing down?
Recruiting levels are going down because there's a war going on and most people don't like it. Once the war ends they'll bounce up again.
Just because you're useless doesn't mean the rest of minorities are, you're, as we could say, a minority among minorities...
It will be called the New York that Was.
