I can find a song in 12,378 rows on paper in a few seconds by hand. And my eyesight isn't that good. The limiting factor is how quickly I can flip pages. Give me a minute with your full database. OCR and a robotic page flipper could probably speed that up. If I stored the scans to disk, I'd be able to cut that down to less than 1 second.
And laws like gravity and thermodymaics aren't Physics, they're just descriptions of practical applications of Physics. Stuff like black holes, super string theory, and unicorns should be taught at university. If you want to know how the universe works, or what formulas you need to use to build a bridge, go to some vocational school where they teach small engine repair and word perfect.
It'll never happen. Africans as a whole inherently lack the obedience and rote memorization abilities that made the Indian labor market what it is today. I'm not saying all Africans, but the best and brightest will invariably move to India where $400/month jobs abound, and superior Africans will be comparible to mediocre Indians and work for $200/month. Because even though the standard of living is higher, everyone has rick-shaws and you can live on sorghum way cheaper than lentils and rice with curry powder.
It just so happens that "banner", "navigation bar", "links", "headings", and "columns" are some of the most common categories of tabular data used on the web. Just because the only information you, personally, want to display happen to be multiplication tables, doesn't mean you're the only one allowed to use a bunch of rectangles to display your content. You should be forced to use a linear display in the form of a spiral from the inside out for your "scientific" information, and only online newspapers and corporate portals should be able to represent their data in tabular format.
What about the other multibillion dollar oil company that runs Apache and has contributed money and code to the Apache project, but hasn't contributed a cent to Linux kernel development (which the first multibillion dollar oil company happens to host a high bandwidth mirror of, and has contributed bug reports to?
I haven't seen a plaster cast in the US in years. I call bullshit. Unless you're not in the US. A $1000 cracked forearm is going to be broken down where less than $100 is the cost of the cast, and it represents less than a $10 difference cost to the medical provider.
I expect a decent enough society to want to care for people who actually need health care.
Do you believe society can only exist as part of the government? Form a society and help pay for people who actually need health care if you want to. I might join. Especially if you hire administrators who are motivated by personal profit to administer the business as effeciently and usefully as possible.
But why argue with someone like you? You are essentially saying "I want to force other people to pay me money, let their children die, it's not my problem." And you are also saying "I am both too stupid to comprehend, and willfully ignorant of ethics to bother thinking who the money I steal comes from." Forgive me for wondering if your DNA is worth contributing to the gene pool.
Do you spend more than $12,000 a year on medical bills? You might consider keeping the money. Even if you do, most people don't, and a savings account is a better investment than insurance. I doubt your insurance company will keep shelling out big bucks for your son, and even if they do, most of the time, they will find a way to drop coverage ASAP if any major bills come up, or better, just refuse to pay for the medical care and keep charging you.
With a signifificant percentage of the biggest corporation being insurance companies, another major portion being health care providers, and yet a third significant number pharmaceutical companies, there isn't much of a margin for those willing to take the insurance gamble to come out ahead. (Gambling companies represent another major corporate interest.)
No, loops and functions were created so you didn't have to trace and repunch. It took about 10 minutes of punching card to realize that addresses and jumps (gotos) were gonna be very useful.
No, their bombs are mostly surprus Soviet artillery shells. It wasn't the pilot lessons or the boxcutters that brought down four planes and three buildings. It was a careful study and creative analisys of policies and procedures of the air traffic control & airline crews, and the structural integrity of the buildings, and of the enconomic and command structures of our country. Stuff that most people wouldn't know how to find or utilize, though much of it did in fact come from libraries. Once it was done, it could probably be emulated by a score of nutjobs with boxcutters, but that's like saying flight can be accomplished with some bicycle parts and canvas.
Slashdot Mirror
and featureful? Threads (even linux threads), SMP, Java, X, and all sorts of drivers
but what did you do with the cage?
Whoa! A professional programmer on Slashdot!
translates into definitely legal. "Might" and "possible" placed together encompasses everything that everything that is not.

Your raid controller for a Pentium 2 had to have been more than the price of a new computer.
Don't the .com root servers run on a flat file? Flat files must be better than PostgreSQL

The accent.
a theory that does not translate into job skills is empirically false.

"quite philosophical and verbose"
Anthony Edwards, stupid
You have never seen Top Gun. Or does the corrolary, "any movie that Anthony Richards dies in is a good movie" cancel it out? Did he die in Gotcha?
If current Microsoft offerings are "good enough" that doesn't really brook a desire to switch to Linux.

Sure, use Goering to defend your point of view. He's right. There's no moral difference between the American democracy and the Nazi dictatorship.

Have you seen the new money? We don't have greenbacks anymore.
