How civilized to live in a country where criminals enjoy gardening as much as everyone else. I'm guessing that you live in England.

That's right kids, two hands on the desk, feet on the floor, barking orders is a stress reducing a yoga pose. It's called kicking the dog. Feet up on the desk, hands clasped behind the head is called the kicking back dog. Don't forget to fl

If a restaurant goes under, whoever provided funding takes a big hit. Losses = value destroyed. Liquidation values on fixtures and equipment are low. BTW, here's a good rule of thumb for investing in restaurants as a non-controlling partner

Seems like we need something like vmware on phones. Then I can run the company's phone on my device. They can wipe, er, administer it any way they must. And I can still have one phone.

There are a lot of knuckleheads in the world. Best for all to just ignore them. This one called it off because he already got what he wanted--lots of attention.

Have you tried Google Scholar Alerts? Works well for me. If that doesn't suit, consider it as a baseline for functionality.

Easy. Because their parents don't suck to hang around with. In contrast, the "greatest generation" hit their kids, hated their hair and music, and didn't know how to party. They were easier to love from a distance. The current crop of par

The one example I could find on their web site used sudoko which really requires only logic, possibly with backtracking, in order to solve. I wonder what probability calculations they have put into hardware. Bayes Theorem? Expectation? That

Not the right question. Human nature works like this: If you think $5mm net worth is enough for you might get $1mm. If the figure is $20mm, you might get to $5mm. If you happen to achieve your goal, the figure will rise. Guaranteed. If you

I will take your question seriously and give a very personal reaction. (You are obviously not a flamer, despite 1 comment here.) I haven't tried modern Perl. Maybe you could lure me back to perl. I programmed in perl for about 4 to 5 years

I'll be more specific. In microeconomics (aka price theory), a monopolist is the sole supplier of a good or service at a time/place/condition. The monopolist faces a downward sloping supply curve. In a competitive equilibrium the supply/dem

Depends on how you define monopoly. The analysis is intended to cover any business that faces a downward sloping demand curve. That is, any one who is not a price-taker. A monopoly certainly does.

Nah. A kid will keep you sane. Best cure for a bad day ever invented. Also, kids don't get cheaper as they age. Might as well get the task done quickly. Just make sure spouse is truly on board. Your stress is their stress and vice versa.
