Oh no! You poor thing! That would mean you can't dabble in the mind-rotting opiate that distracts you from real problems! You can't perpetuate a fat, bloated, money printing franchise that's popular because it's popular!
Congress isn't working for "the people"; this measure only shows that they're working for "the mouthbreathers" whose lives still revolve around watching the drivel they put on TV and for whom it would actually make a difference if commercials were quieter.
I don't identify with those people -- I have an IQ to protect.
No, no, no. When Ahmadinejad said he wanted to wipe Israel off the map, what he *meant* was that he wanted to wipe the *hatred in the Middle East conflict* off the map.
And when he said his country doesn't have homosexuals, he meant homosexuals don't let themselves be known in public!
And he never said the Holocaust didn't happen; he said it did, and it was _justified_.
And when he said he wants to cart all the Jews back to Auschwitz and "finish the fuckin' job", he was talking about hosting a conference hear Auschwitz to honor the Holocaust victims.
Sheesh, they always, always misinterpret what Iranians say!
Yes -- also, eldavojohn in particular is a subscriber who has no life and tends to do that a lot (write up long replies to a story beginning from the very moment it became available to subscribers).
I love that this is a site where I can tell, and people can get, jokes that require you to see the analogy between quoting an EM frequency as a wavelength, and quoting a mass as an energy. Makes my day:-)
Technology review's arXiv blog is so difficult to get any details out of. It's hard to figure out what these people have done. "frequency of 1055 nm"? I guess I'll have to go to the full article.
Yeah, and you know what's even worse? Some assholes report the mass of fundamental particles using electron-Volts which is a unit of *energy*, not mass. Retards.
This is an advanced... um, steganographic tool. It *appears* to be a colorful child's toy with pointless games, but can actually be used to transmit brief audio messages!
Bobby Jindal mocked volcano monitoring shortly before the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull and some other one in the US. No, can't find the name of the US one right now. But this was after Obama's first State of the Union Address.
Granted, there are disciplines that are closed knit to the point that the reviewers would recognize the author based on their past work
Pardon my naivete, but I don't think such fields should exist. They present an extremely hazard for groupthink and inbred rubber-stamping.
Any speciality should bend over backwards to maintain close ties with the surrounding fields of research so that others will understand how it relates and better be able to detect when bad practices are becoming standard. And it is vanishingly unlikely that this super sub-speciality will *never* stumble upon a problem isomorphic to a well-studied one in a distant field.
It's because of this "oh this is a hard subfield, stay off my turf" mentality that causes things like ecologists *just now* starting to use the method of adjacency matrix eigenvectors (i.e. PageRank) to identify critical spiecies, despite the method having been known to mathematicians for 40 years.
Hey scientists: science is a group process. You're special, but you're not that special. Please build off of the existing work. Don't compartmentalize. Good science connects, and connects deeply. Yours should too.
I was going to roll my eyes and say "conspiracy nut", and then I realized this one would be pretty easy to keep off American roads (en masse, anyway): how does it perform on crash tests?
Not true -- since the IP over transoceanic 747 method would permit a ridiculously long block length, you could have an insanely low error rate at marginal cost to transfer rate. Shannon noisy channel coding theorem wins again!

What the fuck are you on about?
You're not looking at ads, clicking on ads or buying premium upgrades, and the app isn't adding any value to your device.'
I hope he didn't list those problems in *decending* order of importance...
That's a really asshole thing of you to say about a Puritan woman who had a premature baby :-[

What do you have against black power cords, racist?
And they're having a heckuva time keeping them war-ready, I'll bet...

Actually, some climate researchers showed a callous attitude toward scientific standards in a few emails, so pollution must not be a problem in China.
No, it's more like you're not very good at abstract thought. :-)

Okay, right, I get that, fair point. What I mean to say is, OTHER than plumbing, what have the Romans ever done for us?

If they want to pick a target for Alzheimer's, target Ted Stevens. That guy is loses a part of his mind every day!
Then he should have said so: "Whatever merit these earmarks might have, but it is irresponsible to promote funding for them on grounds of stimulus."
Instead, he trivialized the idea wholesale by saying:
WTF?

Yeah! Damn him for not being proud of his heritage! Real Americans are *proud* of their heritage! Like me! I'm SO proud of it!
*burns cross while displaying massive Confederate flag*
It's about HERITAGE, not hate! Promise!
What field is that, and why is it hard to find isomorphisms to known problems?

It decrypts to "go fuck yourself".
