There's been talk that Starcraft II would not support LAN. The reason I am a fan of Starcraft and want to buy Starcraft II is I spent many many hours playing it in LAN cafes. People will be doing LAN with pirated version anyway, they'll just run their own battle.net server locally and the only thing you'll achieve is piss off other consummers with a crippled product. Why oh why?
hat the new analysis reveals is the reality of two Americas, one on par with most of Europe and parts of Asia, and another no different than a third-world nation with the United States placing 41st on the 2008 CIA World Factbook list, behind Bosnia but still edging out Albania
How much of that is due to homicides? How much is due to car accidents? The study does not seem to control for these factors. It's pretty much rubbish. How much of that is due to selection bias ?
I too can take the distribution of age at death, cut it in half and argue that the lower part's age expectancy is dramatically lower than the upper half.
People doing these studies are quite often bozos which start from the answer (we need socialism and redistribution) and work backward.
In this case you bitch to your friends about their lack of discretion and if they don't get the hint you consider not hanging out with them, at least not where cameras are around. The third party (in this case Facebook) has nothing to do with it.
People who really care about their privacy do not yell about privacy law. They use secure systems, they keep their life private.
I think people who are vocal about privacy are just trying to signal that they have interesting lives. If your life is boring and common, it has very low information entropy. By hinting that you have some private information, they're often trying to imply their life is interesting. And when they're done yelling, they twitter what they had for breakfast.
We need comprehensive data privacy laws, protecting our data and communications regardless of where it is stored or how it is processed. We need laws forcing companies to keep it private and delete it as soon as it is no longer needed, and laws giving us the right to delete our data from third-party sites. And we need international cooperation to ensure that companies cannot flaunt data privacy laws simply by moving themselves offshore.
And snazzy uniforms for the global information police I guess...
No, he said that the real Azincourt was on flat ground, gp said that the game Azincourt was also on flat ground so the OP's error was not induced by the game being inaccurate but because he misremembered it.
would remove the freedom users have to gain access to source code by eventually allowing its inclusion in proprietary products
This is not freedom, this is a possibility. Labeling possibilities as freedoms is essentially a marxist trick.
If I download GPL code without the GPL license from a torrent, I am not agreeing to any restriction on my freedom, I am not signing anything. The GPL uses a copyright to force me to disclose source code if I distribute derivative products, yet I never agreed to the GPL in the process.
The pirate party is right to oppose copyright, and Stallman understands correctly that this is a danger for the GPL. The GPL uses copyright to force people to disclose source code while traditional copyright uses copyright to force people not to disclose information. Both of them restrict freedom.
High frequency trading, millisecond holding period mean that traders are able to bring more liquidity to the market. A floor on holding periods will increase bid ask spreads as limit orders will become riskier and increase volatility. In this story, Broadcom shareholders were able to sell their stocks for a higher price
In promiscuous species, a male has a seminal fluid budget to spend carefully, there's every reason in the word to weight the amount produced by the expected fitness of the offspring. Humans are not that promiscuous, which is why our testicles are not as big as say bonobo who need a large sperm budget to go through their day.
The other major reason is the vast majority of video games sold in the United States have only small amounts of sexual content because of the Electronic Software Rating Board.
Maybe the term can of worm was improperly chosen. I welcome this development in biotech, but if it happens, it will have a lot of unforeseen consequences and not all of them will be good. I for one favor individual liberty and a proactionnary principle, so go for it.
You can design them to be wiped with an EMP, or to stop working when they're out of a specific magnetic field (and have such a magnetic field when you want them to work), a bit like some laboratory bacteria are made unable to synthesize proteins that they need so they can't survive in the wild. You could also make them solar powered and use a solar shade when you're done.
With the price of pollution so low, economists say, industries that generate and consume energy have no incentives to change their habits; it is still cheaper to use fossil fuels than to switch to technologies that pollute less.
What part of cap and trade don't you understand ? The point is not to change habit, it's to cap emissions at a certain level. The success of this policy is measured by weather or not the cap is respected and what the impact on production is.
There are three kind of people, normal eaters, under eaters and over eaters. Left unchecked, the first will become dangerously underweight, the second will remain normal, the third will become obese. Being slightly overweight may mean that one has a tendency to over eat but is concerned enough with one's health that one overcomes it. Therefore, the slightly overweight people are just health-conscious would be obese.
No it's not. I've was born and raised in France, moved in the US at 23, 4 years ago. The only unit I'm still uncomfortable with is F (also one of the stupidest) I have no problem thinking in inches, miles, gallons, ounces without converting.

Reminds me of a similar idea I had around high school, package a condom with each canned drink in the vending machines.
This is not a troll, this is informative.

I didn't say anything about layer of participants. I didn't imply any form of layer in my analysis.
It's not the holding which is risky, it's the price offering. Any liquidity provided is a sitting duck for people with more information.

She must float.
Interestingly, this opens the door to biological children from homosexuals couple. Sure it's been foreseen for a long time, still big big can of worm.
And more to the point, do we really want to ?

I'd go see that movie, seriously, but I know I'd probably be disappointed.

Possible explanation,
There are three kind of people, normal eaters, under eaters and over eaters. Left unchecked, the first will become dangerously underweight, the second will remain normal, the third will become obese. Being slightly overweight may mean that one has a tendency to over eat but is concerned enough with one's health that one overcomes it. Therefore, the slightly overweight people are just health-conscious would be obese.
Literally of course. He will return as a pop dancing Zombie.
