The English pronunciation of Nicholas is actually neither of those two sounds, and you would be surprised how much Nikola is pronounced incorrectly with the same sound as Nicholas.
That's a good strawman argument. I said nothing about teacher salaries. I said per student spending was up, which says absolutely nothing about teacher salaries. You should learn some reading comprehension.
Besides that, salaries are not incentives to performance when they are based on seniority and you cannot be sacked for performance.
Apparently your good school never handed you a copy of Strunk. Uck.
Also funding is entirely irrelevant. Throwing money at a school system does not work. Don't believe me? Look at California. Per student spending is up some 40% in five years, number of students is down. Not a god damn thing to show for it.
If you lived in the US, you would be sitting in a jail cell right now facing felony charges FYI. Never help anyone with their computer in the US. It's not worth it.
It is generally expected that as fixed costs become a smaller portion of total cost that average cost will fall. That is to say that: C=F+V*N Where C is total cost, F is the fixed cost (rent, machinery, things that don't scale with increased production), V is the variable per unit cost (raw materials, labor per unit) and N is the number of units produced. Average cost is then A=V+F/N As N becomes larger, A becomes smaller. This is the economy of scale.
Of course, in reality V is not orthogonal to N, and as N becomes very large V will also begin to increase. This is known as a diseconomy of scale. Examples of this include cases where increased production drives up the price of raw materials (i.e. the firm has market power as a buyer), non-linear increasing maintenance costs, or ballooning beauracratic costs.
No such law is necessary. It is already on the books. All it would take is to convince a judge that failure to vaccinate constitutes endangerment. That is the way common law systems (like the US and UK) work.
As Berners-Lee pointed out when he wrote that version of gcc, your only real solution is write your own disassembler that will not be recognized by the tainted compiler so you can test it to try and catch it in the act of inserting the exploit into the binary. Time to brush up on your assembly language.
If the compiler is compromised there is no other solution because any tool you might try can be compromised by the compiler in compiling it. It's a vastly more sophisticated version of a trojan that disables your anti-virus. All you can do is write everything in binary yourself.
There should not be any list of scientists opposing global warming. A scientist would never be opposed to any interpretation. They might consider the interpretation incorrect, but that is a VERY different thing from being opposed to it.
As an example: I think intelligent design is incorrect, I am opposed to teaching intelligent design as science. I am NOT opposed to intelligent design itself. That would be stupid.
I'm sure you'll accuse me of being pedantic, and nit-picking, but if you do you are missing my point. Linguistic laziness and poor communication skills are the source of all flame wars and I am god damn sick of them. People need to learn how to speak.
Local monopolies still exist everywhere in the continental US. Had AT&T not been broken up, I'm willing to bet it would still be a national monopoly on phone service.
To be fair, sometimes they added a twist where there was an obviously disgruntled minor character AND an amicable minor character. The gang would then always incorrectly pursue the disgruntled character (who likes a grumpy gus anyway?) only to be shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU! when the disgruntled character proved instrumental in helping them catch the real culprit, the amicable one. Also, the disgruntled one was usually an under cover cop.

You clearly don't know very much about how windows works. Incompetence by design.
No one ever accused MBAs of having a brain.
N = 'ee' type sound.
Anyone who uses terminology like 'pro-evolution' thus feeding into the delusions of creationists should NOT be modded insightful.

You wanna know how I got these scars?
Um, welcome to decades ago? This shit isn't exactly new.

They're only stereotypes if they're wrong.

He's my number 1 for being a genius AND a manwhore.
Correction: I did say they couldn't, I meant to say IF they couldn't.
I didn't say for a fact that they couldn't, I said IF they couldn't.
My point was simply that the ability to spot the problem is not itself a solution.

Now you've got me all paranoid.
I'm pretty sure that they have the option. The consequences might just be unacceptable. Then again, who wants Virtual Studio anyway?
