Like every large software project it deserves a rewrite from scratch because it's full of cruft, but nobody will ever find the time to do it. At least some refactoring and de-crufting is done from time to time if some dev gets pissed off enough. Not something that happens in commercial SW development unless the code is hopelessly broken.
Mod parent up. What you eat determines how many calories you eat. Your digestive system senses volume, not calories. So if you eat easily digested simple carbs, you'll be empty within an hour and your stomach tells the brain "Feed Me!" Hence eat fiber, protein, good fats, no simple carbs, yada yada.
Nice ad hominem. I just happen to agree with the 97% of climatologists who say that global warming is man made. And how does 200 years vs 120 years make a difference about the hockey stick?
Sorry if you need to argue at the level of an 8 year old. If you're unable to comprehend the original science and need your science spoonfed with a big dose of Kool Aid by The Register you should probably go back to WUWT.
It is always about the dose. A small amount of oxygen in the air is necessary for us, but too much oxygen will kill you. A small amount of CO2 has prevented a Snowball Earth for the last couple 100 million years, but the recent rise has already reduced crop yields.
It makes perfect sense to refer to atmospheric carbon because all carbon (CO, CH4, other hydrocarbons) emissions are oxidized to CO2 with a half life of just a few years.
Temperatures were lower than in Roman and medieval times, and falling... until the recent warming kicked in. This is yet another hockey stick. I can't see how the Register is turning it into anti-AGW propaganda. Read the Nature article, not the Register.
Haha. Baby. I started shaving when I slowly became a graybeard but I'm still running circles around the noobs. It has everything to do with motivation, health and education/knowledge and nothing with age.
Now if only they fixed the basic interoperability issues with Exchange... There's not a day that I don't get an email where I don't see an attachment, or when Thunderbird tells me there was an error sending while in fact the message went through just fine. I know those are probably Exchange bugs but it doesn't help to say "Microsoft isn't adhering to the RFC, go tell Microsoft." Just add an " Exchange Quirks" setting. And I won't even get started about the calendar integration.

"Sony" and "cheaper than" is usually an oxymoron.
No.

Marriage is a civil contract, generally for mutual benefits and the benefit of (potential) children.
As such, it is governed by laws and courts.

+1. GP's myth has been debunked many times.
Of course, if you eat or drink sugary junk it gets converted mostly into fat any time of the day.
Sounds like some really old Kodak stuff dug up by archaeologists.

Did you look at the original graphs in Nature?

That's a correct viewpoint.
All I do is follow the science. You'd be well advised to do so too.
Did you read the Nature article and look at figures 2 and 3? The trend is only down until the 19th century, then it's a steep upwards trend.
Slowly FALLING temperatures... up until 200 years ago or so, then sharply rising. There's your blade. Look at the graphs in the Nature article.

Or wait another 20 years until those maxima are also clearly surpassed, and then we're back at square one.

I prefer orientificated. Sounds way bigger.
You're going to get fired by HR if any of the old guys here
