when you have the masses demanding that the government protect them from EVERYTHING, fomented by the scare-mongering media, and legions of lawyers to sue them into doing it.
As an aside, a co-worker at a previous job had a panic attack once at work and thought and it seemed as though she might be having a heart attack, so I gave her an aspirin and stayed with her while someone else called 911. It was good to know that the aspirin could have helped, and in the end did no harm.

When I learned CPR it was 15 compressions : 2 breaths.
How many countries have you lived in for comparison? I'm sure it's a very nice place, but Iceland doesn't count, in case your URL means what I think it means.
What is the population of Iceland? Less than population of the Portland,OR metro area, where I live.
How diverse is the population of Iceland? For example, 82.1% of the population are members of the National Church of Iceland.
Maybe you're thinking of another country. Please do tell.
PCBs or PWBs (printed circuit boards or prtined wiring boards) rarely contain nickel.
The traces are 100% copper and the other metals present are in the solder (tin/lead or the newer lead-free solders which are typically Sn/Cu/Ag) and in some cases gold (connectors and corrosion protectant finishes). Component leads may add some other metal, but again, not usually nickel.
I mentioned that the first time this story came up on/. but thinking about it more later, Benard cells form in non-rotating fluids. Wouldn't the rotation interfere with the Benard cell formation process?
Water != water-based. Typically water-based includes glycerin, polyethylene glycol, or other substances. The viscosity of pure water is much lower than that of water-based lubricants.
Of course, PV=nRT is the ideal gas law, but there is a similar relationship for monolayers -(pi)A = nRT - a 2D analog of the ideal gas law for a layer one molecule thick which is often a liquid on another liquid or on a solid. This is when the monolayer is sparse enough that it acts like a gas, even though it may be comprised of molecules which are liquid at that temperature. Pi in the formula is the film pressure and A is the area. This is not really related to the phenomena described in TFA.
I disagree - Intel, for one, has made it into the thing that drives everything they do. It's not a natural law, by any means, but they act as though they HAVE to keep on the track that it predicts. It becomes kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. I think they hate the idea of showing one of their founders, Gordon Moore, to be wrong, even if the prediction has already far outlived any expected lifetime. And because Intel is such a key player in the semiconductor industry, the ITRS follows.
Well, the data says that AVERAGE hourly earnings of all workers increased by $0.06 per hour in March 2007. That is not an anecdote. That is a Bureau of Labor Statistics statistic.
The fact that Joe Blow's salary went up less than George CEOs salary and that really bothers you - well that is a different matter, but it only affects Joe Blow's lifestyle as far he lets it bother him.
Your first link said that average hourly earnings ROSE by 6 cents per hour or 0.3% in March 2007. That's not a large increase, but it's an increase, not a decrease.
I asked for evidence that a significant group of people took a 50% pay cut - you didn't give any.
Your assertion of people taking 50% pay cuts is at best an exaggeration, at worst, well, I'd rather not use that word.
Sorry for replying to my own post, but I guess the answer is that they devised the architecture three years ago, but just now have the actual thing in silicon. I should read more carefully or not rely on short-term memory of 30 seconds ago!
That's what I mean. The link given by the poster I replied to was to an article from IEEE Computer from Jul 2004. I'm not a computer scientist so I don't regularly read those journals. But the question is, is it really "news for nerds" if it's three years old?

IANAMA = I am not a marketing astroturfer
IANAMA = I am not a metallica aficionado
IANAMA = I am not a mighty amazon
IANAMA = I am not a mechanical automaton
IANAMA = I am not a middle-aged artist
None of the above?

That was a few years ago. YMMV.
Maybe he meant that two of them are slackers. In that case , no problem: there's only about 4 senators and 8 congresspersons.
Should have just said "300, give or take 50."

9.08 * 1.1 = 9.988
It was supposed to be a math joke of sorts, but it wasn't such a good one, obviously.
Water != water-based. Typically water-based includes glycerin, polyethylene glycol, or other substances. The viscosity of pure water is much lower than that of water-based lubricants.
But the politicians are only doing it because others are demanding that they do it.
That's not supposed to be -pi*A = nRT, but just pi*A = nRT. I should have used a colon instead of a dash.
Of course, PV=nRT is the ideal gas law, but there is a similar relationship for monolayers -(pi)A = nRT - a 2D analog of the ideal gas law for a layer one molecule thick which is often a liquid on another liquid or on a solid.

Should have said:
Iff (if and only if) I suck at math, then so should everyone else. Fortunately, this conditional statement is wrong.

If it's so cool, why did it take three years for us to hear about it? I'm really asking, not just trolling.
Unemployment is down, but only because people are taking jobs that paid 1/2 of what their previous job paid. Why would they do that?
They wouldn't and they haven't.
Can you really cite any evidence that a significant group of people in the US has done this?
I agree with your perspective, but you clearly assume this thing is a zero-sum game. Is it?
No, but I've shaken his hand.
