I agree, though it's partially AC's fault for using those complicated words, clauses and sentences and suchlike. Much better to express it with diagrams. In powerpoint. With clipart - you can't have too much clipart.
Which is why the court assumes the evidence showed the worst case reasonably possible for the destroyer.
What next? If there's no witnesses to a murder, can they assume the "worst case reasonably possible" - namely, that if there had been (say, you'd waited till someone came along), they'd have seen you doing it?
Now write out 100 times: "innocent till proven guilty".
What you're saying makes no sense. If the defendant is guilty beyond reasonable doubt without the evidence they destroy, the evidence destruction doesn't matter.
For the court to be able to decide that the destroyed evidence was sufficient to prove X, they'd have to know what it was. Which is pretty difficult if it's been destroyed.
How do you know that they aren't reinvesting the extra profit into the company in terms of R&D and thus passing on the benefit to consumers in terms of newer/better products or faster cycle times?
You must be right. If you were wrong then we'd see the rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer and the middle class all but disappearing as a few go up and most fall down - that's crazy talk!
To call living in a near-wild state, hunting & gathering your food, a "comfortable" lifestyle is a wonderfully romantic notion, but it's false. It's survival... it's NOT "comfortable" living.
Of course it's comfortable - if it's what you're used to. Do you think a traditional Aborigine would be comfortable working in an office?
That 40 - 60 hour work week gets you a lot more quality of living than the alleged 20-hour work week of a hunter-gatherer.
It certainly does if you think quality of living == material things. I suspect it also gives you more heart attacks, ulcers and mental illnesses.
The whole Chinese work ethic has been nurtured way before any foreign entities became involved. [...] so it's not like the evil foreigners took away the luxuries of the workers.
You aren't allowed to say that. Better go and re-read the history books and find some white people to blame.
The fact that we have tendency to kill other members of our own species through hatred is a major cause for wars and national conflicts (WWII is a good example).
Well yes. I think one of the "W"s stands for "War", which is a bit of a giveaway.
Wotcher guvnor, don't you know. Lovely weather isn't it, what? Now would one of you colonial blighters kindly explain to me what the gorblimey 'eck "boogers" are?
SAP uses them too. ABAP, the language it's written in, is sort of a pascalish c0807 with objects nailed on the side. Early versions of SAP ran on IBM mainframes.

I thought a person who acts unsportingly was a cheat. Whereas a cheater's sort of like a leopard.
I don't agree with your any of your use of italics. Which are belong to us. Or something.
What's to learn? Other than ditch the floppy eared amphibian who sounds like he's speaking ebonics on helium, obviously.
so, just how many shares do you have for sale?
Sorry. We're talking about real jobs here.
Er, is that you, Steve?

And that thing beginning with a C (whose name I will not utter here) isn't? RPG and dialects aren't?

Do you have any calibrating evidence for what you just wrote?
Seconded. It's like hypnosis (even self hypoisis) in a way.
