That's not data mining, that's a clear and expected result from lowering your admissions standards. If the problem was the test, than everyone would have done worse.

There are plenty of dumb lawyers out there that passed the Bar just fine. What it sound like is that the law schools have lowered their standards to keep admissions high to compensate for the lower applicant numbers, with pretty much the re

It's comparable to the other top home commercial routers out there, like the Airport Extreme or Linksys 1900AC.

He now, I'm not attacking her character, and I'm not calling her weak. What I'm saying is that there is no possible way anyone in that position, in that span of time, with all the personnel changes going on, could possibly un

So move the dates. These things aren't set in stone and part of her job is to convince the board and everyone else what is realistic and what isn't, convince them that X requires Y budget and Z time and what the risks are and that

What's the point of being a Chief Engineer if you can't even get some software (the mod tools) written? That seems like an awfully low bar for someone in that position, and to throw in the towel after she barely started seems to s

Catching Fire, by Richard Wrangham, is a pretty good read for those interested in the impact and importance of cooking in human evolution. I really enjoyed it.

That's because the researcher didn't do that on an actual plane. In fact it wasn't even a simulator, it was a virtualized simulator where he put the systems all on the same bus. On top of that the guy was only able to listen

So it's clear, Chris Roberts was referring to tests conducted in a simulator , not a plane. In fact it was a virtualized simulator at that, and one where the systems were purposefully put on the same bus in contradiction of what you&#

Because the vast majority of the bribing related to FIFA isn't happening in the US. That's the entire point of bribery, that you are more protected in the areas you are bribing.

I know exactly what you're talking about but "broken beyond imagination" is pushing it a bit. I agree it's not obvious how to use that portion of the UI, and the UI is far from ideal, but once you understand how it switc

Wait... you think a terminal emulator, which by definition has almost no graphical UI at its heart, is crap because of its UI? Really? You think the entire program is crap because, what, you don't like how the Preferences panel is laid

Clock speed by itself is no longer a relevant measuring stick for modern CPUs and this will continue to be the case for the foreseeable future.

This is up to the VM provider. I haven't seen a list yet except that this doesn't affect VirtualBox (if no floppy is mounted, the exploit is not possible). One would expect though that there is no issue if a floppy drive is not at

I don't think you have to worry about the chip getting too hot unless it turns out there is a serious manufacturing defect. This chip is quite unlike the ones in earlier MacBooks and is closer in efficiency and thermal performance to a

Well, to be fair, any prolonged, heavy computing will also kill the Air's battery. And the fan sounds like a freaking plane taking off.

The screen and form factor and software (web browser in particular) and touchscreen beat the crap out of everything that wasn't already a mini computer. I mean, the state of the art in smart phones in the US at the time was an HTC 2125
