Hopefully, in the future, infants will think twice before enjoying Prince's music unlawfully.
Especially since formerly, infants were not considering the ramifications of their behavior when enjoying the artist formerly known as Prince's music lawfully, or otherwise.
Well, your Android's bluetooth-connected heart rate monitor will probably notice that you're dead and call ahead to your original destination.
v2 will have it identify, call, and redirect to a funeral home en route, at which point your body will be transferred to a self-driving hearse.
After that it will reroute again to bring your body to the just-in-time scheduled wake at the church.
v3 will first defib you to keep you alive long enough to repent your sins before you actually pass away.
This way when you die, you'll die like your own grandfather, who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all his passengers. [with apologies to Will Rogers]
Many of the "old " assignments--implement three different sorting algorithms and compare their properties just seemed totally archaic to his students
Possibly because they predate the existence of Google. Maybe the professor should come up with situations and algorithms that Google doesn't have an answer for?
Anyway, it's not a real problem... But an annoying thing that's developed since he became 'very comfortable'...
There's your solution right there. It takes effort and luck to be financially very comfortable. But returning the favor by annoying someone back? That's totally free, and triples your investment in entertainment value after the first couple times. You just have to be creative about it:-)
As a power Excel user, you'd be a great person to create/reference an Excel/Google spreadsheet/Libreoffice Calc/others comparison table, grouped and/or sorted by the more useful spreadsheet functions. It would help people discover the more useful functionality and avoid the fluff and distractions added in recent years.
Exactly -- immigrants will more than likely get tossed into a truck, then end up at a doorstep or loading dock fairly quickly, with a couple corners bent and at least a few smears of dirt on them, and in very rare cases, with some minor water damage
I know it's fictional, but the campaign that Paul Atreides used to take command of the galaxy was mostly peaceful, right? I don't remember any Muslims being involved in that one.
Well, it's not 'just' shrugged off -- this is the great US legal system. If a Federal appeals court judge should shrug, it is because s/he shrugs with the shoulders of giants.
I've noticed this too, and recently started to wonder whether this attitude towards failure varies with cultural or other social factors. But then again, I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to those kinds of things.
What was the best reading/watching this year? The nominees, or some stuff that didn't clear the nomination cut? This whole thing seems kind of confusing.
Could a different observer identify the universe as being much older than us, by the same argument?
Also, less seriously, if the rest of the universe is travelling away from us at light speed, but there's nobody on those planets to observe it, is it actually older?
Cool! I want privacy for my Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram, and text messages, how do I get that? I use email to communicate with my grandparents, but how do I get it for the stuff I use, like, every day?
Did your opinion about equating/similarizing scientific research with 'toying with things' increase or decrease (or stay the same)? Just my opinion, but my suspicion is that someone smart enough to do research would have to either directly consider or consciously set aside the (frequently culturally specific) moral implications of their work, especially in the life sciences fields, to be able to get anything done.
Through history, scientific research has always conflicted with someone's sense (at least on the fringes) of right and wrong. These are what you, the newest member of your family, and all of us are confronted with for our era. They aren't easy questions.

Wow, you people really are ahead of the times.

Depends on what his environmental policies would have been, I guess.
A lightweight and small phone means a sealed case.
Add "waterproof" and you have my extended attention.
Repairing stuff isn't as complicated as they want you to think.
I wonder how far off we are, though.

If they really wanted you to stay, they'd offer an on-site laundromat with wi-fi and free dinner for you and the family.

Well, no, because people in other countries know the U.S. does that stuff mostly for fun. Now it's getting real.

I was able to spin up an instance of Etherpad Lite pretty easily. It's not very rich text, but does have programming language syntax highlighter and other plugins.
why do people think it is acceptable to ... pee all over public toilets?
Because they're (see item 10) dainty and/or fastidious.

What kind of job? Perhaps one where the fact that a human is performing it is part of its value -- e.g., entertainer, or something else?

does not mean the government gets the right to give me a rectal exam every time I set foot outside my house.
Of course not. That would be socialized medicine.

Two words: President Schwarzenegger.

P.S. Congratulations, by the way.
