Does that mean I can shoot the border agent and not be prosecuted under American laws?
yes. needless to say, you will be shot in half a second yourself, or more likely, disappear for an extended period of time with no laws to protect yourself either.
would the response be as muted if the OP had asked ".... I've explained, in general terms, our family's Judeo-Christian/Islamic views on the subject of creation...." ?
You mean other than the obvious one we all wonder about?
Blaaaaaang. Wrong answer.
Any activity where you use your body weight work in zero G. Thats why Sunita who ran the Boston marathon in space was able to do it.
(Taking a minute to imagine how effortless the motion is..)
Even lifting weights doesnt work, you'd have to use coiled springs for strength training.
after the first week you are no longer exciting/excited and the other people have work to do. so enjoy the first few days, and then sink into monotonous drudgery (for that is how work gets done).
I am not interested whether privacy is invaded or not.
Do people use StreetView productively? Can someone detail why a good working implementation of normal maps/directions does not suffice? I have never understood the utility of satellite view either.
To me, it simply seems like a nerdcool thing for Google to try and pull off to add to its nerdcool image - ooh, we attached 50 cameras to a truck and rode around and used some elementary (yet horribly incorrect) plane geometry.
On gas prices: According to google the current US gasoline price hovers around 3.22 dollar/gallon, though it's going up. Meanwhile, if I try and fill my gas tank in the Netherlands, I'm looking at a price of 1.55 euros/liter, which with current exchange rates translates to roughly 8.91 dollars/gallon. Why are you complaining again?
Of course the site certainly could be used to shine a positive spotlight on the great officers we also have. The last time I was pulled over was a couple months ago. It was a female state trooper who pulled me over for doing 10 over on a county highway at 10pm and I had a trailer tail light out. I only got a warning, but it was actually an 'enjoyable' event. I was so impressed with her professionalism and personable attitude during the stop that I wish I would have gotten her name so I could write her superior to say she was an outstanding officer. When I worked in media, I knew many officers personally - they too were great to work with. A site like this would be useful to post this info to.
You mean Guardianship. Humans need to discard the notion that "animals" are nothing more than property. You don't own an animal anymore than you would own your children. They have personalities, wants and needs just like us humans. I have three cats, they are family members, not some inanimate objects that act like they're alive.
Until ofcourse you fry them up with onions and tuck in.
needless to say, this is academic cheating. if the honor code says "dont do it", you do not do it.
why does it differ from three students sharing answers in the library? here there is solid evidence [1] that would be conclusive in favor of the university if the student presses charges. which seems very likely in this case.
[1] the facebook group, that presumably the teacher/TA kept for records
Am I the only person who RTFA? The scanner recognizes what you are *seeing* and not what you are *thinking*.
What's with the barrage of thought police comments?
Instead, the jerkoff Sunday Driver creeping along at 50 in the passing lane just has to be dealt with, usually by getting around him in the right hand lane, then speeding up to 90 and cutting in front of him so you can pass the traffic on the right.
Accompanied by a toot of the horn, which is what I always do. I see the horn as an annoyance mechanism, if these idiots perennialy drive this way, the combined annoyance factor should make them sit up and move into the right lane.
as noted in the related thread, the hardware manufacturers are equally to blame: for trying to pass off their products as vista-capable, and thereby increase sales.
MS made product A, Dell/HP made product B - and the sales pitch was that A and B worked well together.

Hey. When you write "Li Zhaoping" as your name, by the definition of first and last, Li is her first (family) name and Zhaoping is her last (given) name.
No no no. Factoring is not NP-complete. Sure, its in NP since you can verify a factoring in polynomial time. But the complete part is kind of important, here! Go read a book on complexity theory:)
to add to that - people are always trying to come up with new algorithms for factorization. if factoring were indeed NPcomplete, these people are looking at a much harder problem - showing that P = NP.
Perhaps you should do your customers a failure, begin documenting this, and then turn it over to the authorities. I'm sure your state's AG's office would be interested, if you've got some proof.
... or do them a success, and keep it to yourself.

At some level, this certainly is one given their close ties and MS's (dis?)interest in individual privacy.
A property is not a thing, it is what it is: a property.

In sharp contrast to the usual high-school essays that submitters come up with.

there's nothing to see here. move along.
