I think the point of the original post wasn't to say that scientist shouldn't make money, but to say that he doesn't want people to go into science purely for the money. He says that scientists should be interested in doing science for science, with the money being an great benefit.
Now, whether or not I agree with that statement I will not say, but I just wanted to clear up the apparent confusion.
(Pre-note: I am a rabid Zelda fan, and I thoroughly enjoyed WW through and through.)
Remember, the dev team wanted to improve the triforce piece hunt, but they rushed it out the door. I, for one, am glad that this game is being delayed if it means that it will be the best it can be.
knowing that they can divide 5904 by 249875 in their head in under 10 seconds is useless information.
On the other hand, it's nice to know that they can do it by hand. I don't know about you, but I don't want a mathematician who only knows math by calculator. (Yes, I realize that it is a fair assumption that all mathematicians will be able to do so, but is such a test to be sure they can unreasonable?)
Spell checker? Doesn't that eliminate part of the purpose of his test? I'm speaking, of course, about the part where he tests whether the potential hires can spell correctly without computer aid.
You forget that tabletreasures.org is a site specifically for GMing (in the PNP sense, not the WoW sense) tips and whatnot. The term GM is expected to be used without explanation.
Now, as to why the/. submitter didn't explain it, that's a whole different ballpark.
What it does do is establish that, in the past, they have given numbers that have seemed absurdly high and they were real, increasing the likelihood of the case this time.
Whaddya mean "Linus Torvalds"? Didn't you know that Bill Gates created Linux to make sure they couldn't be considered a monopoly after they crushed Apple?
When did I say anything to the contrary? If you read my post, you will see that I said that the second screen/touch screen doesn't *inherently* make it better. A game isn't suddenly good only because there's suddenly a second screen that you can touch. The games are good because they are good and fun. Many accomplish this by use of the second screen and touch screen capabilities, but the mere fact of having them doesn't make it instantly better, which was my point.
Being a Nintendo fanboy myself (notice the name), I'll tell you that the DS's second screen/touch screen do jack to inherently improve gameplay, but the games that have been made for the DS have thusfar been superior to the alternatives in my perspective (the alternatives obviously being PSP games).

You mean it's not intuitively obvious based entirely off of the phrase "Zend Framework" and the word "PHP" in the summary?
If it were an inherent right, Nintendo would have to send it to him directly. Ergo, privilege.
Never said that. GP only said that the kids most likely have Windows PCs at home one which they are partaking in said activities.
With Ray Bradbury, of course.
If I hadn't used all my mod points yesterday, I would definitely give you one right now. I have great respect for all fans of Tom Lehrer.

I can let that by. My problem is the "from whence" at the end.
Are plan is 2 make a bilding bisnis lol
You'd be lucky to find anybody who will read further than the second word.

It's essentially a 64-bit Windows XP skin with a few added security features. Whoop-dee-fricken-doo.
Honor's English I, freshman year. The test was over Greek & Latin roots.
(on the other hand, my friend passed a final for a class he never took because of Star Trek, so I guess there's something to be said about TV...)

You mean Sony isn't the Universe?
Is it worth a worldwide audience if the fees eat up any extra profit and then some?

If you can't appreciate a real website, please do the rest of us a favor and leave like you're saying you will.
[yes, I am aware my karma is about to plummet, but some things just are more important than karma!]
By definition, if it were obvious, everybody with knowledge in the field would have made it, not just two people.

Congratulations, you figured out the obvious meaning of the GP's post! You win!
