What would be a polite way to say "I didn't hire you because you have no idea how to program?" I mean I've interviewed people who we didn't hire for that reason... You can't say that though because its mean...

The thing is - almost everyone lacks any sort of critical thinking skills. You see this everyday with all types of stuff that's why these things spread... Perhaps humans are just bad at critical thinking and skepticism or it is cultura

Found this on wiki- Opioids are being used more frequently in the management of non-malignant chronic pain.[9][10][11] This practice has now led to a new and growing problem with addiction and misuse of opioids.[3][12] I saw a documentary

After personally meeting quite a few people (the unusual suspects...not teenagers) develop a serious addiction to the opiates that were prescribed to them... I would have to say we might want to reevaluate how things are done.

I don't understand how someone can not "get" twitter but use instagram. Aren't they basically the same thing except instagram is pictures and twitter is text? That's what I thought, but I never used either.

My opinion on BuzzFeed isn't relevant. I was asking if it was sarcasm or not because I was interested in looking into it myself if it wasn't. Wasn't going to waste my time if you were trying to make a joke.

I was just sharing what I read about what people have said about police tactics. I lack the expertise to evaluate the factually of them. I thought the comment about the mere presence of riot control can escalate the situation was pretty dam

1) society is not falling apart. 2) the average American does not commit 3 felonies a day. We have found that small rewards for not speeding reduces speeding - so yes, driving behavior can be modified by externalities. http://www

Part of what was said was that the police (in Ferguson) seemed ill trained to use this fancy gear. With little oversight on how and when it is used. Allegedly. http://mashable.com/2014/08/14/war-veterans-fergu

It is very common (almost required) when reporting on companies/startups (and even people) to mention their location. Doubly so if the location isn't where the reporter is located or where you may assume a different location not g

Right, you can buy them now. I just mean if it becomes required/acceptable to plug in all your devices whenever you see a usb port, we WILL start seeing malware transmitted that way. These things should be thought of ahead of time.

Power button definitely shouldn't be mixed into the keyboard with the other keys where its easy to hit on accident. On the other hand it probably doesn't do anything unless you hold it down.

Plugging your phone or laptop into a random usb slot into a wall to charge it isn't safe from a security standpoint. Since data flows with power, it is very easy to load up some malware while charging or steal data from the device. Unl
