Ha, you think that's bad. Now throw in Aspergers, where brain disconnects from vision and you don't even register that you're being perceived as staring.
While feminist organisations and politicians are fighting the Safe Campus Act which explicitly demands that rape accusations are referred to the police for a full and thorough investigation to assure justice for the victim I think it's reasonable to suggest that feminists are very much in support of false rape allegations.
It's the only interpretation for their insistence that the accused get no opportunity to defend themselves, for their insistence that a proper investigation shouldn't happen, and for their insistence that the police shouldn't be invited to arrest and prosecute the alleged rapist.
If it's a rape, it's crime. Let the justice system handle it. Or can you explain why feminists are so scared of that?
..and yet: the stuntman successfully did actually do it. That was real, so clearly it can happen.
The article is referring to CGI bridge failures. If they built a scale model and wrecked it the behaviour could well match reality - even though in reality Godzilla just isn't going to walk through the Golden Gate.
This is why films which still use physical stunts are inherently superior to those that rely on CGI. The Blues Brothers wouldn't be a classic if they hadn't set a world record.
I stated it, and you claiming there was no plot doesn't change his behaviour, his intent and the illegal nature of plotting to commit murder through use of an accelerated reaction.
No. The supposition is that if the prosecution can prove the defendant's guilt beyond all reasonable doubt in a fair trial then the verdict will be guilty.
Actual guilt is irrelevant, or you lack a justice system.
Ok, they were warned by Turkey. Was the warning the only one the Turks have ever given, or is this one of sixty a day? Are the Turks reliable or do they give a warning for anything? Did the warning includes the names of the attackers, including the names they were using in France or Belgium? Did the warning include a date? Did the warning include a location? Was the location 'France', 'Paris' or actually useful? Did the warning include the time of the attacks? Did the warning include anything fucking actionable at all?
Or would you like to assume that everybody in France is malicious and/or incompetent, on the grounds it's easier than thinking?
Isn't the US army job spec now, "Sit in an air-conditioned office in a comfy chair playing flight sims in which you can rack up an awesome kill/death ratio"?
I think it's very reasonable to assume that the French did not want an attack to take place, and that they would have acted had they known it was being initiated.
There's no leniency, just communication and resource challenges, and (even in France) a dogged insistence on mostly obeying the law by not (e.g.) rounding up all muslims and feeding them to pigs.
8 people with the benefit of surprise, automatic firearms and explosives died to kill 129. I'd say that's pretty stupid, they could easily have managed that many and survived, then done it again in a couple of weeks.
Or killed 224 with 1kg of explosives.
No, ISIS is supported by a lot of stupid people. Shit, most of them are fucking delusional believers in some mythical gay sky fairy.
For people that do strict Agile that means nothing can be worked on unless you can verify it in the UI.
Now there's some utter bullshit. I've successfully used an agile methodology to deliver a server application that had no UI beyond basic log files and working downstream systems.
For us, it means we can't work on problems that cause bad data that isn't exposed in the UI.
Of course you can. You're inventing weird difficulties without trying to resolve them. Sounds like work avoidance to me.
Agile is not a process. Agile is not a methodology. Agile does not dictate to you. Agile does not prevent your software project from being completed.
And if it can't be broken down into something that can be completed by development, tested by QA, and verified by stakeholders in a single sprint?
Then get a new job with a new career because programming clearly isn't your thing. This is a pretty basic problem solving challenge and if you can't solve this one, you're totally fucked when it comes to meaningful programming challenges.
It is fragile, and it is limited. That doesn't mean it can't be successfully used to add value.
The issue is people doing it badly then blaming the methodology, not their shite implementation of it. Any fucking methodology is going to collapse when faced with the average programmer - see also: IT project success rates
What's politically correct about pointing out that ISIS are a bunch of murderous selfish thugs that qualify as 'evil' by almost any definition of the word, and mocking the fuckwit that claimed otherwise?
Sure. The MOD will tell you the Typhoon is multirole and I guess they could do the Lightning II testing over Syria.
Reality is that the Tornado remains the only viable ground attack aircraft capable of dropping more than Paveway bombs. Shit even the drones carry a more flexible anti ground payload than the Typhoon.
Maybe since technically the Hawk has ground attack capabilities you're suggesting we deploy the Red Arrows?
A first world country like France? What, like the UK, which spends more on defence per year than France and would struggle to even put 12 ground attack aircraft operational over Syria?
Maybe France has spent more wisely than my own government though. Maybe.

The 4 in 10 statistic is the fucking awesome one from that study.
It directly compares to the 1 in 5 statistic falsely claimed by feminists as evidence of a rape culture.
So 20% of women suffer unwanted sexual interactions and that's an issue? How about the 40% of men then, you ignorant fucking feminist misandrists?
Ha, you think that's bad. Now throw in Aspergers, where brain disconnects from vision and you don't even register that you're being perceived as staring.
As a man, the risk of a false accusation is infinitely higher than the risk of me raping someone.
Personal evidence : I've been falsely accused of sexual assault. I've never sexually assaulted someone.
It's not a small risk to me.

The college administration will lynch the guy on the college green.
Metaphorically speaking, yes. Have you fucking seen the way men accused of sexual assault are treated by college administrators?
Shit, a lynching would almost be kinder.

He was plotting.
I stated it, and you claiming there was no plot doesn't change his behaviour, his intent and the illegal nature of plotting to commit murder through use of an accelerated reaction.
Clearly you are not a Jack Higgins fan.
But was he going to push the button or was he manipulated into it.
If the button had set off a bomb, that had killed people, would the manipulation defense have any standing?
Surely there's space in the world for a conspiracy type charge?
He was plotting to set off a bomb. He tried to set off a bomb. You're suggesting that shouldn't be illegal?
No. The supposition is that if the prosecution can prove the defendant's guilt beyond all reasonable doubt in a fair trial then the verdict will be guilty.

I do. You forgot to mention the lace though.
Sadly society disapproves.

I'm not buying that millions of people are trying to get into Western Europe because they're refugees from violence.
They could stop in Israel, or Jordan, or Lebanon or even Turkey, and be safe. No, they're either economic migrants or have malicious intent.
ISIS isn't stupid.
8 people with the benefit of surprise, automatic firearms and explosives died to kill 129. I'd say that's pretty stupid, they could easily have managed that many and survived, then done it again in a couple of weeks.

Hmm. Forced haiku. I like it. I like it a lot - brb, off to change a meeting invite..

taking out a conventional city that ISIS wholly controls in a Dresden like firebombing is now perfectly acceptable
No, it's a war crime and can be prosecuted under international law.
