What is your opinion concerning the chicken pox vaccine then? Given that established science places it as 10x more dangerous for adults than children, and it has also established that the vaccine does not provide life long immunity.
The smart ones realize they can't take all the money because starving people are dangerous.
This is why the wealth disparity that the ultra rich work towards is so baffling. I get why they want to have more money than they could ever spend, but at a certain point, it becomes self destructive to continue to accumulate wealth beyond even that.
Even more so, if it were not for those C programmers, the OP likely wouldn't be running Python at all. I'm not familiar with any hardware that runs Python natively.
You are correct. It goes a step beyond that as well, in that describing what is healthy can be radically different between people based on their genetics. Our standard measurement, the BMI, is a horrific measure of health. Speaking for my genetics, I would have to be an extreme gym rat to be at a "healthy" weight by BMI standards. BMI dictates that I should be between 5% and ~-25% body fat. Other people can be flabby with a pot belly and still be considered "healthy" by the BMI standards.
If we were going to get all hyper PC (and they were white), "Inuit" would be called a racist name. After all, if Inuit means "people", then being non-Inuit would mean non-people. Now, obviously this is ridiculous, but it does point out how ridiculous PC mentality can get.
Yep. There was a time that installing software on Linux was a nightmare. It was so bad that some people sat down and really thought about how to make it really good, and then implemented those ideas. With Windows, software installations was always just passable, and that is the way it has stayed.
Well, to be fair, as long as the football team keeps winning games, the coaches position as history teacher (to meet minimum class requirements) is pretty secure even if he does decide to deal with touchy topics. Or to get touchy for that matter.
Really? I expect every reputable company to do that. They don't tend to support them forever, but if they drop support as soon as a new version comes out, I don't trust buying the new product from them.
I am still confounded by the fact that any businesses send or are willing to accept files other than PDF or CSV. Really I get that there are some extreamly unusual cases where something else might be needed, but for 99.999% of all cases anything that could be sent as an MSOffice file would be better served as a PDF or CSV file.
That was my first thought on the numbers. For all of the "Everyone is now buying Macs." that we keep getting astroturfed with, OSX market share is still far closer to that of Desktop Linux than it is Windows adoption. (Of course, we have to limit the linux market share to "Desktop" because it would otherwise completely eclipse OSX market share.)
Of course the summery is wrong. "Porn" is an undefined value. That is what we have been arguing about. Thus they did not make any comparison between porn watchers and non-porn watchers because, again, "Porn" is not defined. Do you have any idea what it even is you have been arguing?
Well, given that much of the humanities is BS, and the current mentality that a person needs a degree to answer phones or load boxes into the back of a truck, it may make complete sense in a perverted way. Let people get their paper mill degrees for "legitimate" colleges, and then they can be "qualified" to get a job. And by "qualified", I mean having paid the proper fees.
You must either explore your region extensively, or not at all. We regularly drive in ~75 mile radius of our home. To know where everything is would require either that to be a full time activity, or never happen.
Because they are not correlating porn with small brain sizes. They are not even correlating porn with a specific region of the brain being smaller. They are not correlating porn to anything, because they are using the word porn without a definition. As for motivation, you seriously need to ask that? The puritanically obsessed people in our society have been shunning anything sexual since before we were even a nation. See the entire gay marrage debate as an example of how people would feel it was their duty to control other peoples sexuality,.
Your analogy is still wrong. It is like a study showing people who steal are unattractive to the opposite sex, and then, sometimes, counting singing happy birthday at a child's birthday party, sometimes, including downloading a TV show off the internet, sometimes counting not watching the commercials when a you are watching TV, sometimes counting armed robbery of a Quickee Mart, and sometimes counting telling a joke at a party without finishing off telling everyone where you heard the joke.
You see, we are not talking about casual conversation. We are talking about something being passed off as a scientific study. Beyond the damage done by the specific study, it puts all science in a bad light. You ever wonder why people don't trust scientists? Because made up crap like this is consistently passed off as science. YOU are responsible people dismissing scientific studies. YOU and your kind are responsible for people not getting vaccinated. YOU are responsible for people not trusting climate scientist. Because YOU endorse and encourage bad science. Congratulations, that's what you get to look back on your life and be proud of.
Then we are pretty much in agreement. I just wish that we could see more clam shells for Android tablets. I don't want an iOS device, but I would love to have a clam shell for a 10" tablet. Between tethering on my phone and remote desktop, a clam shell for my tablet would definitely reduce how often I want a real tablet.
Yep, it would be easier, less intrusive, and more reliable for the credit card company to send you a text message that you need to reply to, or to have an app that pops up a charge confirmation every time a charge is made. They don't need to know where your phone is. They just need your phone to acknowledge that the charge was legit.
I don't know the details, but I have become pretty well convinced that credit card companies have some kind of accounting/tax trick that actually brings in a profit from the credit card fraud. They go well out of their way to avoid trivial fixes that would improve security. Simply requiring a PIN would kill a massive amount of fraud. Generating temporary numbers for online purchases would kill another huge segment of fraud. For some reason they choose not to do that.
From personal experience, my wife's estranged mother fraudulently opened an account using my wife's information. We didn't find out about it until years later when it's default showed up on our credit report. It was easy for my wife to fix because the card was opened prior to her 18th birthday, and she had not had contact with her mother for 2 years prior to that, so the credit card company just cleared the default, and notified the credit reporting agencies. The credit card company was absolutely clear that they were not interested in prosecuting for the fraud though.
On another occasion, I had fraudulent charges on a Chase card. When I notified them, they removed the charges, and issued me a new card. Two days before they mailed the new card with a new account number, new charges were made on the new account number. This happened again when they issued me a third card. All the while, they kept insisting that they did not have an internal problem, and did not want to hear that the new fraudulent charges were on a card that could not have been used by anyone outside of their company because no physical card had left their building.

OK, I'm not familiar with any OS that consists of Python compiled to machine language.

Most people don't realize that. "Home school" is just a convenient way to say "Extremely exclusive private school".
I'm pretty sure that equating vaccination to religion isn't going to convince people into thinking what you want them to think.

And so starts "The Chocolate Cake Diet".
The fact that genetics is routinely ignored or outright dismissed is the first sign that our current view on nutrition is pseudo-science.

There are plenty of QI charging solution that can be added to devices that didn't come with it. http://www.amazon.com/s/?ie=UT...

Is any of this being sent in MSOffice format though?

I'm sorry, I couldn't hear you. All that Whooshing noise going over my head seems to be distracting me.

I don't understand how higher rates only for Americans is a problem when the card is paid off every month.
