I'll speak from the perspective of an occasional visitor there with relatives and friends who live there. Yes, it's a great city, the absolute best one of its size in the US. One of the few with good public transportation. There are fantast

Also the 25% number is from the article itself and represents measured empirical data from that pretty large sample set. One could say with more precision, 25% of hooker hookups in Manhattan come from Facebook and there is just cause for

Actually I was thinking about both situations. Others as well but the sex slave trafficking and migrant slavery are two of them. http://www.naplesnews.com/news/2010/mar/03/farmworker-slaver... and http://www.tampabay.com/opinion/columns/

What are you doing about the non-hypothetical slavery in the US right now?

He is not making the decision. Uncontacted tribes are extremely aware of the western culture outside their area. Many tribes choose not to make contact, and when contact is forced, they might even kill the enemies who refuse to leave them a

The uncontacted tribes are not unknown and they are not ignorant that there is a world outside with airplanes. They are uncontacted because they choose not to make contact with non-tribal outsiders. This is in part due to violent conflicts

Since they have never paid for the site, copyright and ownership of the site remain with the developer.

Yes, it gives them someone to blame for the imaginary "loss" when this abomination is cancelled. There are a very small number of criminal underground businesses that are not declaring income, but those purchase are not made with check or c

I find it more depressing that corporations conspire with despots to destroy freedom. By providing material support to the agenda of despots, they identify themselves as enemies of the people. They have taken sides. Let them reap the conseq

Good. It would be a huge costly hassle and wouldn't raise one cent in new tax revenue, despite their wild eyed hallucinations to the contrary.

This is about undergrad work, correct? Since ownership of grad work by university is already defined and accepted. What was the written policy for undergrad ip previously? There wasn't one, is that correct? And since there wasn't one the un

Regarding the specific question of "[how] is this legal", the answer is that students have to have signed a contract at some point agreeing to university policy which includes such a clause. This might be something as simple as "I agree to

They'll either ruin it or shut it down. Match sucks just in general design as a site compared to OKC. I do agree with those saying that this might be the best way for the OKC developers to cash out and get paid for their work. Perhaps it wa

Yes, it's important to understand that policies with terms such as "funds, space, personnel, equipment or facilities" uses "or" and not "and". Space, equipment and facilities means that if you are sitting in the student lounge or in the dor

Years ago when I was in undergrad at a top engineering school I had heard about this situation with grad students but it was not clear what the policy was with undergrads. Before starting classes for the first semester, I met with the provo

The federal government is now using taxpayer funds to buy equity in promising startup firms, on the same great terms as other early angel investors. Isn't state ownership of the means of production called Socialism? Well don't answer real

I question the judgment of all the bloggers I have seen commenting about this given that not enough information has been given in any article about it in order to say hardly anything. It has been several days of discussion. There is little

I read the article and it is not censoring. It's just not including these sites in the instant results. They do turn up in the search results though. It's like the library putting the Playboys behind the counter and you have to ask for them

Your claim that I was analyzing is quoted at the beginning of my response. It is your statement: "The game's up for organized religion as soon as people see that there's more than one, and that those other believers aren't evil." By referri

Interesting post. I'm not white and yet I also am skeptical of laws banning private parties from renting or hiring who they want for whatever reason. I do agree though that if there is public funding involved, such as with public schools, t

I took his comment to mean that Einstein didn't initially believe in it and it was an intellectual exercise at the time, not that he didn't believe in it after evidence was built up. Kind of the flip side of the Michelson-Morley experiment

You speak of ignorance. I don't think this theoretical ophthalmologist is ignorant of descent of man theory, nor does he deny that populations of bacteria will develop resistance to antibiotics, nor does he deny that ape and man, like man a

You make a good point that a claim to creationist belief might be in terms of a belief that God set in motion the Big Bang. Noting of course that belief in the Truth of the Big Bang is as scientific as a belief in the Truth of the existence

Definitely a lot of eye surgeons out there that believe in the stork theory of reproduction, it's much more common than people are lead to believe. Good example. Last month we turned down a developer candidate because his weblog said he was

I agree with the criticism. This OpenID stuff was promoted as single sign in. That is not what it is at all! You are forced to give write permission to every app out there before being allowed to sign in to their site to do trivial things,

Thanks for asking this, I had the same question about high density CCDs, space telescopes, and signal processing. I think it is a reasonable question to bring up.

Or "Arrays have disadvantages in .NET." Arrays are useful in many languages. I like C arrays quite a bit and will return a huge amount of data with a single allocation. Allocations are expensive.
