when the USA asked the Afghanistan government to extradite people they claimed were responsible for the 9-11 attacks, they didn't offer any evidence and there are good reasons not to do so anyway - capital punishment, like you mention, and also barbaric treament like the running joke on this site, prison rape.
The Afghanistan government understandably refused,
Right. The Afghan justice system is widely regarded as the standard to aspire to.
How experienced are you with Indian developers? Dealing with one or two companies isn't an excuse to write off all the developers in a country as a bunch of scam artists.
They aren't necessarily[1], It's a cultural thing, it's considered impolite to ever say "no", even if you ask "do 2 and 2 make 17". Hard to blame them for that - in fact that's exactly what the big consultancies send their people on 4 week training courses to learn (they call it "communication skills" or something)
[1] though a lot of them are (they "skill pool" - one gets a job in some thing his mate hs experience in & vice-versa - the giveaway is he's on the phone all the time going "mbud bud bud mbud budbudbud").
As for 9/11, it is pretty clear that the loss of human life was the explicit goal of the terrorists. To say otherwise is pretty indefensible.
I'd say it wasn't. And that's plenty defensible.
If the terrorists had heard of the concepts of "at night" or "weekends" when office buildings tend to have considerably fewer people in them, then that's the time they would have chosen to crash planes (with no passengers in them, of course - after all, Islam is a peaceful religion) into them. To make a symbolic statement, or something.
Well, that or you're spouting total fucking shite.
Maybe it's clear to you now, but you merely adopted that knowledge from modern science.
Not really, it could have been an experiment. Shoot the person from a distance, and ask him if he heard the gunshot. If he doesn't answer then either the bullet really is faster than sound, or he's deaf. Or indeed dead.
Speaking of 1940, quite a lot of things were whizzing around supersonically - mainly these.

If the physical medium becomes damaged (baecuase I have to have it in the drive to use it), why do I have to buy another license?
I find that they often aren't cut out for the job. Some are too stuck up, or I've felt they're too attached to their backgrounds. Others were only interested in material things. [That's enough - Ed]
We can either create our own, separate artificial ecosystem designed to recycle our inorganic waste, or we can engineer our products to fit into the natural decomposition/recycling process going on all around us.
We could all go and live on Mars and fuck that up.
Small amounts of non-toxic metals should break down easily in the environment
Can you explain what these here metals break down into? Let's take copper for example. It being an element, I didn't think it could break down into anything. Maybe I'm just stupid at chemistry or something.
Besides, it doesn't even have to be anything fancy like Plutonium or Uranium. It could be sufficient quantities of radioactive dye or other such materials.
Doesn't need to be radioactive at all - it could be chemical or biological.

P.S. Renault Twingos didn't make it to the UK because they look like a frog on wheels.

Nah, you should use lawyers as fertilizer.
I am intrigued by this "VMS" of which you speak; tell me more.
