My perception in having visited Paris, Barcelona, Milan, Grenoble, Firenze is that a fair amount of the road pollution comes not from cars but from Vespas and similar scooters and small-engine motorcycles. Lots of people living within these cities rely on such vehicles, and just judging from my nose, they are big contributors to smog.
I'm not sure about this, but I think those vehicles burn oil by design as part of their operation. The lubricating oil is mixed with the gasoline before it enters the piston.
FISA claims it's to hold for court purposes, but the NSA can still search this data while they hold it.
I would think that holding this data:
works against the NSA, as its surveillance utility decreases as a function of time,
works for the litigants, as long as it contains evidence against the defendants usable within the statute of limitations for any wrongdoing it reveals.
You can't just eliminate the laws of supply and demand.
3) Not sure what the going rates are, but considering $50E9 would buy all the plants themselves, would that get you enough lobbying to solve the problem (although it's not completely clear to me who's working for who in this instance)?

The fact that they weren't familiar with "common knowledge" technologies before encountering them in court, or haven't chosen to incorporate them into their life isn't.
"Common knowledge" is the key point here. Could the same argument be made about electricity, or the auto-mo-car (see item 3), 30 years after their invention?
And to be safe and scrub out all the inconsistencies, run it back and forth through the English <-> Francais translation a few times. Even better, run it through a few different languages. That should improve the quality significantly.
You may want to see if yoga or the like would help. A lot of yoga involves maintaining and improving hip and shoulder flexion to either substitute for decreased/supplement existing range of spinal motion.

The default sort coerces the array items into strings before sorting.
Which then leads to this point. Admittedly, this is a cross-language issue, but considering Javascript's origins are in the browser, it's hard to argue that this was a decision and not an omission.

"FizzBuzz is way too trivial to select programmers for basic competency."

The draft law mentioned in the article is in relation to the original common External Power Supply recommendation from 2009.

I think ogres have a similar rep.
If they give it a face, preferably with puppy or kitty eyes, finding continued funding for it should be no problem.
So you're suggesting:
It sounds like you're saying that something like that would be better than what we have available to us now.
That's ridicu ... anyone have Neil Young's phone number?
Not true -- I found a great tutorial on how to be a ninja and now I'm an expert. I am now able to totally dominate any enemy.*
*Note: Enemy must be shaped like a fruit.

In effect, the government has become primarily a massive money-transfer machine, taking $2.6 trillion from some and handing it back out to others.

Not to be cynical, but at least one of these doesn't quite make sense.
I'm sorry, I couldn't find 'phrog' in urbandictionary. Could you add a proper entry for those of us not in the know?

Incredibly, though, this one is still working as a riveter as of about 5 months ago.
Wait, Clippy is a chick?
I can't provide a proper citation for that one way or the other, no :-)
... it offers loads of little "this code block can be refactored this way for this reason" hints - shows you just what can be done and why.
Oh good -- I was worried if and when Clippy would find work again, what with the husband and little staples to feed.
I'd like to see them run whatever experiments with two otherwise identical robots -- one with, and one without a head/face.
I think we're a little late to the game on this one.

It makes it seem like the residents' exposure to potentially toxic smoke is worth nothing more than a coupon for free pizza.
It is insulting. Maybe they should actually pay to send out some doctors or some other meaningful assistance for the residents.
Assistance such as, you know, actually sending out the pizza itself.

You're more likely to die from choking on a piece of meat than you are to be killed by a terrorist.
Fuck that. I'll take my chances with the terrorists [and I'll learn how to clear an airway if someone chokes on a piece of meat].
Are you sure about that? Pitch that to PETA for their next marketing campaign and that might look pretty impressive on your resume!
