I'm not much of a biologist and I may just be spouting what I've heard in the past, but I think all the water soluble vitamins and such are totally safe and impossible to OD on, it is the fat-soluble ones where there's the potential to OD.

Apparently you didn't bother to click on them and view the image - the first one clearly shows online as a fraction of the total revenue for 2011 - sitting at around 10% of the industry's $24bn.

Self-imposed exile is still exile. I'm not a rubyist but I believe your reading of the saga is correct.

I've never been a console gamer so I wasn't really aware of this distinction - though I guess I do have some vague sense of it. I'd just assumed that the big titles were all available on all platforms. However, it appears you're absolutel

That's how I read this too, those whimsical (childish?) games are still around now (don't ask me to list any ... i'm all growed up!). My son's 17 so let me look through some of his old PS2 games... Kingdom Hearts, Ratchet & Clank, Jak

Did the people from the 70s forget how to read now its 2013? ;) I was born in '79 so although I was alive in 70s I wasn't really part of the whole free love movement or anything :) I'm not sure its even that popular of a book for that cohor

It isn't really about motorcycle maintenance. Pirsig uses that as a common example in various places throughout the book. Its actually a philosophical novel, the subtitle is "An Inquiry into Values" His later work Lila - is similarly sub

You're right, that is an interesting theory. It doesn't appear to be supported by anything in reality though. Personally my expenditures go to primarily to housing, utilities, travel and food. I'm not sure how any of those boost China's e

Bosses don't "give" employees raises? Let's not argue semantics. Using your line of reasoning it doesn't actually matter whether the rise in wages is "artificial" or not, your argument is simply "wage rises will not help" As a former reci

I'm pretty sure that giving lots of people more disposable income will increase demand. Which will in turn increase revenues and allow successful businesses to expand, increasing employment numbers, creating a positive feedback loop. In re

It is obvious you take exception to the GPs quotes but you've not done a very good job of explaining why. Do you believe the quoted statements from the GP are false? Or do you not care if they are true, and rather believe that that kind of

Yes it is mainly in the US, but I think calling it "pretty rare" isn't helpful. For 2008, for example, the government had previously tallied 935 confirmed instances of sexual abuse. After asking around, and performing some calculations, th

wow lots to address here and I generally have a policy of avoiding political discussion on HN, so I'll refrain. However I'd just say rather than looking at maps and guessing about wealth distribution you can just look at the exit poll data.

It is a poor choice of word. I'd suggest the reason for calling them "logic" is that the process by which you explain what you're thinking and why to the interview gives them an insight into your ability to use logic. The puzzles themselv
