You're a big giant asshat with no understanding of the real problems border towns face. We've had two close business owners in the area kidnapped, ransomed, and murdered in Chula Vista by MS13 within the year. More have happened throughout the community. Police find sex slaves chained to beds in canyons for migrants. Jerks like you keep saying they deserve to freely commit crimes because of something you seem to think skin color causes.
Here's hoping it doesn't have to happen to your family or friends before you get a fucking clue.
But the fact remains that color blindness is a disability, even though it is a lesser disability than most.
You're an idiot. When someone registers statistically perfect scores on entrance exams and is then told that due to colorblindness they can only work in data entry, it is a disability.
When someone is completely removed from any opportunity in biology or area research, it is a disability.
We don't all aspire to be hip-hop thugs.
What happens when DoS is the least of your problems and a botnet group subverts the DRM turning every installation into a SPAM or bank-assaulting criminal?
If I were on a steering committee assigned to recommend funding I would most assuredly appreciate your insightful distinction and ability to use pant wetting as empirical proof of opinion./sarcasm
Maybe you should use less ritalin, mate.
The AB32 thing should be scrapped if people cannot work. A solution in the hands of Jerry Brown includes the state locking citizens into serfdom in order to feed his government gullet.
Just so we understand each other, AB32 will not let anyone mix concrete. It was written by a research assistant with a fake Internet doctorate. But it is being implemented anyway by state employees that have no regard for the status of the governed.
Fixing problems with solutions that leave millions of people without work is not a fix.
urging the United States Environmental Protection Agency to immediately halt its carbon dioxide reduction policies and programs
Um...whether you think global warming is bullshit or not, why would you want to halt carbon dioxide reduction policies? I mean, modify them, sure...but why completely halt them? Global warming being real or not, there is no denying that we as a species pump way too much crap into our atmosphere. Regardless of how much this affects our planet, you can't honestly tell me that it's a GOOD thing...
People always seem to follow one extreme ("We're ruining our planet!") or the other ("We aren't doing anything to the planet!") when it comes to global warming. What's up with that? Why is it so hard to find people with a realistic point of view ("We pollute too much, but we aren't dooming ourselves.")
It just floors me that supposedly rational people make statements like this sans substance. Listen, AB32 is gutting 1,000,000 jobs here in California. We cannot legally mix concrete under the new law.
If you're so hell bent on reducing CO2 I invite you to jump into the nearest predator's gullet and aid the cause. If you cannot make this small sacrifice how can I give standing to anything you say about what others must give up?
More to the point, it's not actually true (the IPCC is made up of climate researchers who are asked to participate based on their research on, yes, climate). And who does Utah want researching climate issues, if not climate researchers? Shoe salesmen?
Yes, like that great climate scientist, Rajendra Pachauri, err...
The models are wrong. Big deal. That doesn't make the planet cooler. It just means we're unclear about the causes. (Which is all you global warming deniers want, isn't it? Can't you just attack the science based on the actual fact that root causes of warming are difficult to pin down and not outright lie and claim that the planet is not significantly warming?)
Well over 1,000,000 jobs are being eliminated in California over this "big deal". Since the rest of us get to pay those share of the tax burden, plus any other carbon taxes, I would like someone to explain conclusive proof that it isn't some sham to get more grant money.
Let's try a couple of simple things first. Why does every bill require destroying anything that works?
Bill 1: Insurance companies shall not be restricted to compete only within state lines.
Bill 2: Insurance companies shall not be forced to pay for uninsured patients.
Bill 3: Insurance companies shall not drop customers who pay their fees.
Bill 4: Insurance companies shall display all policy information in 12 point font and online for customer reference at any time.
Bill 5: Insurance companies shall average fees on an actuarial data publicly available for comparison by potential customers.
I admit 5 starts jumping past the construct but it certainly appears smaller than 1,000+ pages of tax code rewritten for health care.
Blame the victim.
And people wonder why the 'social sciences' are so despised.
Exactly. A better strategy is to blame the parents and administrators who continue the bullying cycle. A call to a bully's parents/teachers/administrators with a carefully worded suggestion can make all the changes in the world. Just phrase things, correctly.
California's farming industry (the largest in the United States) is currently severely impacted due to a lack of water. Not enough snow over the last few years means not enough water for the crops. It's a bad deal.
California's drought is due to infrastructure and the EPA, not the lack of water resources. SoCal's water infrastructure is even further affected by litigation that the farm valleys.
This is the traditional way that science is done of course. Someone publishes a radical idea or discovery, and others try and reproduce or show flaws in it. This has never required the keeping of raw data (though it may be good practice) or publication of analysis code. The whole point is that it *doesn't* depend on any individual aspects, or something specific to a particular scientist. This is why I feel that all the demands for source code and raw data are barking up the wrong tree - science already has a better way of verifying results.
I hope you never get a job in CM or version management with that attitude.
My publicly funded organization has archives of project data back to the late 1920s. It may be in punch cards, but it's archived. Beyond that, every document we have mandated for control is available for review by appropriate authority. Scientists and engineers enter service understanding their responsibilities. Why do you suppose that another other publicly funded medium would not have the same requirement?
Honestly, I can't imagine a reason that the contract wouldn't have gone to a company with you as their poster boy. Keep dropping that ritilin! I hear it helps with those people skills.
A person in California can go to jail for life for stealing a slice of pizza. But the government cannot seemingly develop a law enforcement group to track down these ad creators/placers that seem to be doing this in large part to subvert connections into bot resources.
I vote for spam and malware being capital crimes -- all forcibly tried in the state of Texas.
Citation please for Govenor Palin being kicked out of office for ethics violations?
Please list the exact ethics violations and their conviction?
Oh, you can't? Ok. STFU then.
Whiteface is traditional clown makeup.
Admittedly, there are some hysteria based upon clowns but the contemplative viewer might -- might just consider that the rhetoric is based upon the Joker's indifference to any social norm or consideration within his ever action or goal. Just a thought.
Spore made me cry. So much potential but when the DRM news flashes hit I took the same stance.
I will not pay for DRM anything for this same reason. Ever.
This is the biggest crap of interleaved revisionism I've seen so far. All weapons are now capped, there is no achievement to craft the finest ever again. I don't understand how any sane player of the system can say that the Character Level system does anything but utterly ruin the game. THEY HAD TO REMOVE WEAPON CERTIFICATIONS FROM THE GAME TO MAKE THEIR CL SYSTEM ALLOW PEOPLE TO GRIND A SECOND COMBAT PROFESSION! It was that poorly thought out and implemented. Now Smedley has jammed this down our throats and the game is so broke I cannot level my padawans, which took two years to achieve. I took so long to get them because my game was building communities, not running away because a "revamp" affected me. This CURB has gutted the playerbase, and when my 480 member friends list shows 12 people online something is wrong. Roll it back.

Being alarmist gets you book sales. Being alarmist gets you photo ops. So does denying scientific consensus.
Sorry AC, denying scientific consensus keeps one employed, IMO.

"So why are we trying to implement policies to combat that change?"
We're not.
We're trying to combat OUR changing of the climate.
Or do you think it's fine if NY is under 200ft of water or half a mile of ice and we caused it?
Taxing me more is not combat. If you're so combative go shoot somebody.

You should ask Al Gore where his family wealth actually was begot. Patriarch Gore is on record doing exactly what you deny for Armand Hammer.

Wow, I'll try that on my next program submission. You can't handle the truth! Trillions of dollars NOW! Hand it over you denialists!
