For the record, I am a Christian and to make some kind of connection between anti-intellectualism with anti-satanism is absurd, but wisdom != intelligence, either (though there are many smart people who don't get this). Also, it is somewhat ironic that your quote says to be innocent because innocence can refer to a deficit in knowledge, although in this case I don't think that's what it means. Christianity has no position on whether intelligence is inherently good or bad.
Ok, significant correction: To be subject to the you have to commit (or be deemed to "pose a significant risk of committing") an act of violence or materially assist (etc.) one, or receive something from someone who commits one.
Either you didn't follow your own advice or we disagree about what it can be used for. If you read the actual order, it basically says that to be subject to it you have to commit an act of violence or materially assist (etc.) one, or receive something from someone who commits one. I don't see how participating in a demonstration falls into any category that it covers -- there's no blanket "undermining" clause that doesn't involve what I wrote in my second sentence.
Although the data sources we use are the most recent available, there is a lag between the effective data of the salary information they report and today - sometimes more than a year. To recognize that salaries increase faster than studies are printed, Salary.com uses the industry standard approach of modifying the data by applying an aging factor to adjust the data to a common date and to accommodate the movement of salaries over time. Not all salaries move at the same rate. For instance, in the last few years, salaries in the information technology field have increased much faster than salaries in other jobs (5 to 15 percent for IT versus 2 to 5 percent in general). Therefore, IT salaries are adjusted at a higher rate than non-IT jobs.
So I wonder how old the data they used to adjust developer salaries is. I wonder if anyone else can provide a link that shows how developer salaries have changed over, say, the last ten years.
I wondered if there was a petition related to this online and found it at http://www.petitiononline.com/boycottd/petition.ht ml. I don't know when it was created but so far only about 230 people have "signed" it.
Maybe he wanted people to be able to search for nsfw and find it. Sure, they're likely to search for "Not Safe For Work" as well, but it's easier to search for nsfw.
Why was the parent modded up? The grandparent said he (she?) believes Genesis should be interpreted literally although it may be figurative or symbolic. It's ok to believe something is true and yet not be absolutely 100% sure of it, isn't it? In fact, doesn't generally accepted theoretical physics demand it?
Removal of other pigeon byproducts was a greater challenge, until Page and Brin developed groundbreaking technology for converting poop to pixels, the tiny dots that make up a monitor's display.
It is better to think of IQ, not as intelligence per se, but rather as a measure that has a substantial correlation with other measures of intelligence.
Suppose that you were trying to measure height, but for some reason were unable to do so directly. You might instead measure the length of the forefinger. Now length of forefinger is not height, and you will find some short people with long fingers and some tall people with short fingers. Still, the correlation is almost certainly good enough that you could learn a lot about the inheritance of height by measuring fingers.
I think this analogy is invalid. Compared with a precise definition of intelligence, it is far more difficult to find people who disagree about the precise definition of height. A correlation is only meaningful insofar as the things being correlated can be defined.
Cracks me up that parent & grandparent were modded Interesting & Informative as opposed to Funny. Ok they may not be funny themselves, but the subjects they link to are and to me, anyway, are neither interesting nor informative. And to any Jedi -- uh, I'm just kidding.

From Hotjobs/salary.com's methodology statement (http://hotjobs.salary.com/salarywizard/docs/salwi zhtmls/methodology.html):

Maybe there could be some AI behind it that figures out what you would look good in, if anything. :)

I'm curious about how valuable experience in the previous two challenges is. What was learned that will be applied to the new challenge?
From TFA: rapidly translating their utterances into awkward programming syntax. Sweet! This will be just like my typed code!
There's a reason it's called belief and not knowledge.
I think if you ask around you'll find a lot of people who believe their religious convictions are correct, yet admit it is possible they are not.

What if it's impossible to prove whether something is falsifiable or not?

I for one welcome our new robotic drink-serving overlords.

I didn't know Google was into P2P.
