    Well, just taking the last two there you could use them as a sort of binary.

    But how much energy would it take to get it into space where we could use it there?

    Just to point this out in case you were blindly republican about it.

    Jimmy Carter achieved peace in the middle east when noone else could. He is responsible for the recent ceasefire between Hamas and Israel.

    If that's the "damage" that he's done to us...

    That's because the article is somewhat like Schroedinger's cat - it is both read and unread at the same time, up until the site is slashdotted.

    It looks like you're trying to make a left turn. *your windshield is covered up by a giant talking animated traffic cone* Would you like to make a three-point turn, a regular left turn, or a U-turn?

    Show us the percentage of republicans who voted for and against and the percentage of democrats, and point out the democrats who are only democrat in name, like Pelosi.

  12. Not open on Ivy League Computer Science Curricula Exposed · · Score: 1

    If it's not open source, it's not computer science.

    There are countless web sites out there with valuable information related to CS, and simple searches for common things usually net you a hit or two on google that come straight out of a lecture or textbook - to put it bluntly, if your in-class materials can't stand up to the kind of community vetting that those sites do, it's not worth teaching.

    At TWU, our CS teachers took nearly everything related to our programming from the net and told us it was better to be as open about your work as possible so that you could get help when you needed it and not just when you wanted it.

    It was the first time I could really say that my teachers deserved praise for their work in CS, and it was a welcome change from teachers that were either not experienced whatsoever, or completely soup-nazi about stringent (and ridiculous) programming practices, like putting constants in a seperate text file and never using a single numerical in any program.

    I'm now sitting pretty with a very nice programming job, and I can guarantee you their teachings helped me the most out of any of the Universities I attended.

    go figure. I have a huge photoshop on my wall, that has that earth picture where the other would be.

    on the other hand it might be that there's more than one picture named "earthrise" since the title of my wallpaper when I got it was called the same thing.

  18. On the internet you can't push anyone around... on How To Deal With Internet Bullies? · · Score: 1

    ...any more than they can push you around.

    The only thing you can really be judged by is your words.

    Give your users the ability to ignore other users and make their posts disappear, and you'll see that the trolls' behaviour is curbed since it's now more inconvenient to continuously piss people off.

    Then the trolls have to either keep making new accounts, or they have to contribute some to the discussion to actually participate, and either way you've won.

    "Earthrise" is the name given to the famous picture taken of the earth from the moon. You have most likely seen it, it's the most famous picture of the Earth.

    Africa is prominently visible in the picture, if you're curious.

    I think the movie did fantastic by hiding just about every single drop of blood.
