It's different here - if this is able to produce a field extending out with a constant strength, you design one for 1g and put it upside down over the area where you want nett 0g.
The difficulty if this is real is that gravitational decreases by the inverse square law with the distance from its source, so you'd only have zero gravity at one point, and varying amounts elsewhere.
That's the same in any industry. If you've made it through the sift to interview, you pretty much meet the specs that they're really looking for. Putting excessive times is an attempt to weed out those who don't feel confident that they could do the job. I'm not saying that it is a good technique but it isn't unique to computers - it is the fact that languages are relatively new that makes it more obvious in IT.
I'm a chemical engineer and my current position was advertised requiring 5-10 years of experience in one particular industry area. I had only three, and in another area and got the job.
Without A Trace? A crime drama where they investigate bad things? Doesn't that kind of suggest that this episode would be ANTI-teen orgy if it's in the episode?
During the Falklands War, Argentina was attacking the Royal Navy with French built Exocet missiles. Eventually after political pressure, France gave the RN sufficient information for them to be able to order the exocets to self destruct.
We don't want to find that the Americans can do that to us.
I'm not saying I like the system - it is a right pain in the arse when you have to run everything through unit conversion when you want to work in SI because it is safer. However, when you work in us gallons per minute for flow rate, psi for pressure, F for temperature you find that is how a lot of data for pressure drop across valves etc has been calculated (US research labs), and converting it when you have fractional powers of physical units is not fun.
Unfortunately, "English units" is an accepted term for a relatively consistent set of units including feet, BTUs etc. Any set of engineering steam tables comes in SI and "English" units. And most of the time they don't match imperial either (eg US gallons)
I must admit I haven't read TFA but in chemical instrumentation you have instruments that work by basically assuming a linear relationship where there is a curve. Doing this and then extrapolating (especially this high) is dodgy as you don't know what the PV:MV relationship really is.
Chemical plants cost similar amounts to build, and a similar length to plan as Peter Jackson seems to take to make a film. A six week payback is not a long time. Even short sighted executives allow you at least three years payback period before they start to worry.
While Waterworld is often used as an example of a failed big budget movie, it had made $115 million profit as of 2005, which equates to a 4.1% annual return. While not enormous, it isn't to be sniffed at either.

Yeah, sure it is.

An oil rig, particularly in an area such as Kazakhstan, springs to mind immediately.

Sounds like a perfect job to outsource overseas to me. The fact that you have gold farmers already suggests that the staff would potentially be there.

Only if it is free as in speech too. :-)

They used Charm quarks
It's not burnt uncontrollably but it is still oxidised with air to form carbon dioxide and water.

But then they're also the least likely to have installed Firefox at all, so building it into FF won't help much there either.
It looks like you just mebi.
Or instruments that are not calibrated to measure a temperature that high accurately.
All of them. That much steel and aluminium needs a hell of a lot of fossil fuels to be burnt.
My school caretaker did that after a tour in Belfast. He got shot and decided it wasn't for him any more so ate himself free.
Slashdotting would certainly count as "altering the website" in my book.

I liked it too. It was just a comment about that sounding like a good description of Carl Denham.
King King was a disaster becasue the studio couldn't rein in the director A case of life imitating art there?

Erm - the NTSC version is 30 fps, not 24. It's fully transcoded rather than just played differently as the resolution is different too.
