I have a quite strong feeling that certain complex automated systems within financial services / insurances domain could reach those LOC levels. Including all the frontend side, internal backend logic, possible web services, internal t

There are valid scenarios for robbing during the night - for example in many holiday destinations with villas, holiday apartments etc. it is expected that when there are people inside the house, there is also cash money, laptops, tablets, s

I am sorry if this is ever discussed, but could someone tell me why "a man died" is a big news that we should care about? It's all about the context, who/what/where/etc.

Imagine that you go running with a friend. You run at 0.9 * speed of light and your friend runs at 0.8 * speed of light in the exact opposite direction. How fast are you getting away from each other?

Many of the eastern European countries have probably quite equivalent standards of treatment and facilities for lower price tag than in California. I know quite well some people from Estonia, Poland, Latvia and Czech republic and none have

I mean that Vint might have some difficulties to make their users happy, if there are thousands of people waiting for their spot. At least for me the interesting stuff is to spread my message and I have a hunch that it might possibly get re

So how many days will it take for everyone to tell their message, if there are 20 message slots per day?

If/when the cure makes it through the final tests to the market, the sad thing is that they are probably going to rip off everyone who needs it, no matter what are the real costs. But anyway, a life is worth everything(?)

Exactly... it is like a service providing just "Clothes." - I don't want just "Clothes" even though I do need clothes.

No information on coffee varieties, degree of roast, country of origin of beans. Arabica? Robusta? Blended? How dark roast or can I choose? For now I'll prefer to ground my beans at the supermarket, as I know what I'll get. Edit:

This kind of work in investment banking sector seems quite sad - you are no longer doing work for living, but the other way around. I have absolutely no experience on what particular type of tasks are done in these positions. Could someone

woowwwwowoww... now the wording is very critical, the real deal is other way around - they have used torture techniques that (too) many people would consider interrogation.

The subtitles are transcription of art made by other people. As a contrast, you shouldn't borrow books from a library and read them aloud and record it and start distributing your "self made" audio books on your website.

I partially understand the motive here; I guess that only under one percent of these "fansubs" are used with legitimately downloaded video material (never heard of this happening) and the availability and ease of use of the subtit

If the new second is found to be longer than the old second, then for example long distance travels won't take as many seconds than before. Oh wait... sorry.

Sure, thats why it only smells like it. In this case only the boy is imprisoned and beaten in jail and his parents are extorted for half a million dollars to get their son back to safety.

Wow.. This so smells like North Korea. A bad joke here and there or getting too tempered after bad game and the police throw you into jail. Of course I hope that he really was just joking - I've even heard of video game rage that has d

Do you think that it is Snowden who is hurting USA or the actions USA (NSA/CIA/etc) has taken and tried to hide?

by gerhardi 13y ago
Now my (naive?) hopes are a tiny bit higher that the American espionage suspects will get extradited from USA to Germany to face charges and possible punishments. Edit: has such action EVER taken place?

by gerhardi 13y ago
If the documents reveal who are behind this, would USA be willing to extradite the suspects to Europe for trial and punishment?

by gerhardi 13y ago
I think there is a possibility of a trick here - the document is not given to Snowden, but he somehow already actually is in Ecuador and Ecuador's officials have this document and he has been granted passage. This way Aeroflot's s
