Well yeah. The bailout terms were heavily slanted towards the unions. Of course Ford preferred the bailout to competing against some company which might buy all the assets at bankruptcy prices and then hire workers on much more favorable te

GM was in trouble long before the 2008 crash: http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2008/06/general-motors-deat... (in June 2008, they were already up to part 181 in their series) Also, guaranteed loans for automakers might be excellent compar

Well, if you only like Madden, you probably are. It's like if you collected art, but only art with football players in it.

It is still around! Except for the fact 90% of my friends have abandoned it for less-featured platforms, it works great.

Either way it's an issue. Now that it's known, how many minutes will it be before some high schooler retrieves sexts sent by their now-hated ex, and distributes them to all their classmates? I suspect the number is negative.

Hm, I suspect you will get a lot of "$0" answers from folks who have only been out of school since 2008, and much higher answers from folks who were in the Valley pre-2001.

How is it better than Octave ( http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/ ), which runs most M-files and is free? EDIT: Okay, someone posted the website, and it IS Octave ( http://www.vectera.com/howitworks ). So, all the advantages are from the c

I would say there is some good: * a program with 0 lines doesn't do anything. So there's a positive correlation right there. * "Code golf" code is typically hard to read, change, and debug, so this sets a lower bound on how much code you

Neat. After reading that I had as many neurons in my gut as a cat has in its head, > a network of neurons that line your stomach and your gut. Surprisingly, there are over 100 million of these cells in your gut, as many as there are in

I see a lot of comments here to the effect that this means debt is a free lunch now. Would that it were so - we could get rid of taxes, as well as Medicare and Social Security withholding. And nix the Obamacare penalty. And, of course, buy

Plus, the pedophile drug dealer puppy strangling wife-beater can also walk across the border (north or south, your pick) and probably not get deported, like the 11 million illegal immigrants who are already here.

“Martha is the key,” he wrote in an October 2011 e-mail to himself. How did this make it into the article? Was it a company-wide mail headed, "Open Letter To Me"? Is this his personal note-taking strategy, and he let the Times read it?

But if you don't do the 0th bit - shooting awesome rockets across the solar system and dropping rovers on distant planets* - lobbying would be useless. Do you really think this is debatable? What do you think NASA's outreach budget was in 1

From the article: the cuts are "hitting where it hurts: in education and outreach". Is that really where it hurts for NASA? What about space exploration and research? Aren't those a little more important?

i agree with you about how nice it is to have targeted ads (although Google still hasn't gotten good enough that I have ever clicked on anything). The dangers for the government are when it uses its powers to stay elected (Nixon), or spy on

You should probably clarify that this is not intended a legal contract and violations will be dealt with socially (if that is indeed what you intend).

Holder's letter doesn't concede any limitations from a non-military context. So you are the one pretending and puling things.

>Only Congress can bind the Executive on such matters. This is probably the root of your misconceptions. The Executive has enumerated powers, not enumerated limitations.

Don't you think there should be legal limitations on the President's ability to order someone's death? Note that Holder's letter recognizes no such limitations.
