Most crime situations that young people are involved in are emotionally arousing situations -- they're scared, or they're angry, intoxicated or whatever.
And other people do it because.....
America is great at retarding its children and we love our excuses and justification for our actions. Mostly though we just love to hear bullshit from so called specialists
What's funny about this is all the gullibles on here who are going to shout man made climate change.
The truth is we've only been keeping record since the end of the 19th century. Yes ice and earth core samples can tell us something but the truth is science is really just best guess in a given situation.
We've had cyclical climates since earth formed. Assuming we are the cause is so unbelievably arrogant it's baffling.
Whether or not we are responsible tho, the earth will be way better off when we're gone.
seriously +2 insightful. sounds like rhetoric to get attention. The Chinese aren't innovators, they copy, steal and are tbh just playing catch up to north America. They come over and buy up companies and we let them and then they turn around and stab you in the back And north American companies let them do it.
It's time to wake up people, the real 'red coats' are coming
Exactly. I forget the program i was watching but it spoke how the theory unravelled as well at really large scales. I've forgotten the type of star mentioned.
The point is einstein did a great job, no question. However, scientific theories are only good until a more refined one comes along.
A lot of people seem to equate "distributed version control" to "git". This is incredibly short-sighted (See mercurial, bazaar, bitkeeper, darcs. Raise your hand if you're fluent in any other dvcs than git).
Git is the C++ of version control: it's incredibly powerfull, but needlessly complicated. It's the result of piling unrelated features while trying not to break the workflow of existing users.
The issue is, that after monthes of learning to master this complexity, you become convinced that it's necessary. It's not.
And yes, git can also be seen as version control for hipsters. After all, it's designed around letting people diverge from the accepted path:-)
+2 for Insightful. I've said this time and time again. Down with RoR, Node, Git...just...down with it all, please. #hipsterSoftware #hipsterCoder
...maybe it's that our brain deteriorates as we age and thus memories are not stored as effectively. Same thing goes for the 'celia' in our ears, we start losing them from birth, plain and simple.
...sheeple...too bad it didn't start with a P. smh. It was a sad day when I learned that for all their training to think logically and to seek out truth...Scientist were just like everyone else. They want to stay in line, they don't want to buck trend...god forbid someone proves the great god Einstein wrong. That would be blasphemous!
I'm not saying neutrinos don't follow the cosmic speed limit, I'm just asking: would any of them have the balls to step up and claim it?
Every day that passes I lose more respect for my fellow natural philosophers. every day.
Yes, I'll be modded down, yes some will think this is flamebait but the next generation wont.
This isn't news. There is already strong evidence indicating that circa 1970's/80's US pollution played a key part - if not the cause of - the 1980's Ethiopian Famine. I think people forget that we live in a fish bowl. Excuse the expression but what I shit you eat...and vice versa.
Maybe dotcom was approached by studios...maybe he wasn't. What I do find hard to believe though is that these studio execs - if they did contact megaupload - didn't have a standard Non-Disclosure agreement between them before they started talking. This would prevent Kim from talking about this stuff or sharing it with anyone else. Find that very hard to believe...
I think Ekirch's research is obviously correct but his conclusions might be a little off. it's well known already people tend to lose productivity during the afternoon in the modern day workplace. This is why the Europeans have their siesta . Prior to the industrial era and the advent of lighting yes, we may have had our circadian clocks synced to this pattern prof. Ekirch talks about. However, it is Post-Industrial now, many countries around the world have constant non natural light and many individuals work around the clock and have varying shifts. As a result, the need for sleep - or "power naps" - hasn't changed, our clocks have just synced to a different schedule. Where you are in the world and the personal schedule you have will determine the optional time for that cat nap needed to recharge.
Again, it's not that we don't need to "sleep" twice in a day, more than likely we do. there is evidence that points to its benefits, however as we are finding out with medicine today, it would be and should be tailored to the individual and their schedule.
Only time will tell my fellow canuck. The recent census put us at 33.5 million but give us a few more years and increase in population. Our politicians btw are just as corrupt as the states and civil liberties erroding just as fast. U can keep your face in that beer and ignore the reality of the situation: canada is just as bad as the states, with as much ambition. We march lockstep with them, for now though we're content to let them be the bad guys while we work on our own nefarious goals. Just ask Harper:)
With China rising and everything that comes with it, the U.S and Canada will realize they'll have to step up in order to maintain or become world super powers. The same rule applies here as it does in business. Competition is good for everyone.
while English and Greek speakers are statistically poorer and in worse health than Germans.
Greece is in serious financial trouble and Quebec (primarily french) is going the same way and has been called the Greece of Canada.....interesting....and of course Germany is a economic powerhouse of the EU.
Of course, if you don't take the Tiobe rankings seriously [timbunce.org], than all of this is moot, but I guess it's something to talk about on a Friday.
It's so funny to see so many taking the Tiobe index as an actual indication of a language's true popularity. I remember a few years back as a noob, when the site hackers.com was still around. I used Tiobe to show just how popular C was... circa 2002 - and I was laughed off the board. One senior member just systematically tore me a new one and why Tiobe was a crock of ish....sigh. sure wish that site was still around.:/
I think it highlights the importance of a common labelling for software in the same way that other consumer products have. In the past I thought it was important to have software labelled for "phones home", "displays adverts", "closed source", now this would require "has government mandated backdoors".
Yes, but you're still trusting the goverment to do this and the point that should be seen here is we can no longer depend on elected officials to look out for the people. All this simply reaffirms is what Richard Stallman has been preaching for awhile now. It is up to the people to educate themselves and take the proper precautions. Of course the 99% won't and cannot and thus this is the reason we will soon see an event like Arab Spring spreading to the west. Sounds a bit crazy but the revolution will be here...soon.
...and start coding my ideas. First itunes, then fb and now p2p search.
Just goes to show ideas are a dime a dozen its just who implements it first. Can't wait to see how this turns out though. P2P is really how the internet should be structured as much as possible.
Its funny. My knee jerk reaction to this is that like the bedroom, the goverment has no right on the internet. However that might not be entirely right....maybe....still thinking.

The obvious question is; what's a DLL?

It's understandable science has to do it's due dillegence but seriously, i wish they'd just take Sitchin a little more seriously.
jesus christ this is retarded! really?

No Perl is. Real scientist use the Python programming language with Numpy and MatPlotLib :D
...in a world where mathematicians patented their Ideas and when after violators with a vengeance.
