So why isn't desktop software purchased the same way as every other item a school buys? Just put out a spec saying what it has to do and the level of support expected and take the lowest reputable bidder. If the spec says: "must have email, spreadsheet, word processor, email, etc." then OK, but if it is written to say "must be MS" then something is wrong. If they were doing that, there would be no need to have to "review" whether they did the right thing, they would have done that up front.
So far as I know, "tab" has always meant "Advance the carriage to the next tab stop" and has never meant "advance a fixed number of spaces". The default tab stop setting varies from program to program. In Word its on 1/2" boundaries, and in most editors its on 8-character boundaries.
There's something interesting about the Drake Equation [go ahead, look]. Multiply the terms and it is supposed to give you the number of civilizations that we might be able to contact at any given time. However, it assumes that any habitable planet will only ever have one such civilization. Although as far as we know, we are the first technological civilization on Earth, it is not impossible that after we are wiped out by global warming, or the comet of 2016, or the Star Wars project, that in a hundred thousand years, the octupus civilization will appear.
Though they may be killed by barbarians before they finish developing triremes.
Would you happen to have the name of a reputable scientist that claims solar output variation is responsible for global warming, by any chance? Note that even over the 14-year sunspot cycle the variation is less than 1%.
I am kind of worrying about what a group of agents might learn to communicate while wandering around in GTA: San Andreas. Maybe in the interests of society you should limit this to Kirby.
It's one of the logical fallacies to present two sides to a question that has more than two answers. Federal regulation requiring net neutrality vs. Telcos charging certain users more. Other options could include, for example, telcos can charge what they want but lose their monopoly on providing service. They would have to provide access to the home for any competitor on their wires at a rate no higher than they charge to their own internet business.
Title of article: Hang up your cell or get hit by lightning
Evidence presented in article: 15-year-old girl who was using her phone in a park when she was hit during a storm
Now if only they had discussed the other deadly things she was carrying:
Just pretend that Microsoft is the hunchbacked dwarf who smokes Turkish cigarettes and ODF Foundation is the conjoined twin albinos who wear patent leather boots.
What the telcos want is to be able to charge a different amount based on the type of traffic. Less for html, more for netmeeting, voip. Extract the maximum possible that the user is willing to pay for any given service. Since I can hide my voip traffic by tunneling it on port 80, for example, the only way to do this is to charge more for guaranteed latency and then slow everything else down and deliver it out of order.
From the article you cite:
12,000 ulcers / 24 million wearers = 1 per 2000
Lasik has several risks, but just counting
flap complication rates = (0.1-0.5%) = 1 per 200-1000, which doesn't include some of the other side effects mentioned by the FDA.
Lots of stuff on WP is put on there by people who either never read or have no intention of following the guidelines for giving references. Also, it seems strongly biased toward the web, as though nothing done before 1980 counts. I see articles citing total crap websites when there are widely available and respected books out there. Take a look at the laughable references for Unix.
You are overreacting. The primary purpose of this is just to look for the terrorists who are buying wood matches and lighter fluid in order to burn American Flags.

Editing /. articles is a good idea for a distributed project! It could run as a screensaver ...

One grew back.
Never turn on an MRI machine in a hardware store. Trust me.
I'm missing 3 fingers, so I always write numbers in base 7. Really.
You wanted to server, but you found out you were just a client.

Unfortunately, he recently committed suicide.

You just keep your eyes on me and ignore the guys coming up behind you with the straitjacket.

Personally, I plan on switching from zippers to buttons based on this article.
Remember that a class A contains 16M addresses.
Yes, but it has to be properly worded. It should say:
"Thank you for your interest in Falun Gong. Information
is being mailed to you."

The article totally fails to take Lorentz-FitzGerald Contraction into account.
