There is another reason people expect stuff to be free and it's because business people in general don't know of any other way of framing things. The last 50 years has been all about advertising and so the business culture knows how to tie

You get a job too I guess but you should get rid of the query limit.

It depends a lot on department culture. Some departments are really fragmented, the professors hate each other, etc. So if you're in a department like that then not only will you be stressed out from all the work you are doing but you will

Well I hope you make it and don't become like the academics surrounding you.

Ha, same here buddy. What department were you in?

Why don't you call the courses what they really should be called: Conning 101, 203, 301, etc.

What if you don't think in words? What if your natural mode of thinking is in terms of fuzzy images and funky metaphors? Looks like I'll have lots of gainful employment in the new dystopian future.

That's how all governments work. Keep your citizens as disheveled as possible and they won't know what hit them during election time.

They also didn't anticipate various mediums of expression being supported by very few individuals and even as a private owner of something you are still going to deal with other people using whatever you own to express themselves in some fa

This is why people make a distinction between the spirit and the letter of the law. The point is that congress represents the people and if every private citizen starts censoring everything on their property well then technically congress i

As good citizens of a country Rackspace personnel also abide by certain rules and one of those is abiding by the laws of the land. The US constitution is pretty explicit about limiting expression and free speech so I can see how it could be

by greenlblue 16y ago
Rackspace did the right thing. This is not a free speech issue since there are more articulate ways of expressing your dislike of some belief system without desecrating objects that a certain group considers valuable.

He is saying google is complicit in some kind of act he finds distasteful so google is partly to blame. Is that spelled out enough for you to see why I said he is blaming google?

Prototyping semi-trivial cases. What I mean is that a solution of a problem might require some parameter so I'll just pick a value of the parameter that makes it possible to solve the problem in a brute force fashion and evolve the code bas

This is good stuff, let me know when the API rolls out because I think these kinds of apps are better when they are on a handheld device because you can do a lot more stuff when you can carry the reminders in your pocket wherever you go.

I agree with you on this. Requiring facebook credential to log in is a big turn off for the kind of crowd that will use this service so I think you should give people the option of using other credentials to log in like twitter and google a

It's not about artificially injecting people anywhere. I guess I am not being very clear. It is important to have balanced representation in any field that is considered valuable to society and it's even more important to have balanced repr

I am not living under a rock I just prefer to keep the discussion away from conspiracy theories and petty overused arguments about how "the man" is keeping everyone down because there is no merit in such arguments and it doesn't address or

Well women are obviously interested why else would we be having this discussion? It obviously comes up and the fact that it keeps coming up means there is underlying issue that is not being addressed. Nobody is saying it's an issue that is

It's not about differences or different people having different interests. Technology and technology companies are major drivers of societal change and it is important to have as many different groups involved in that process as possible. T

Now you are just knocking down a straw man argument of your own making. Nobody said anything about conspiracy theories of the kind you are putting forth or pretended that this was feudal England or ancient Egypt. Many women feel that tech i

The military? I'd have to disagree with you on that one. The other ones I'm not sure about but I agree that women have entered those industries and it is because those industries started being proactive about recruiting women much earlier t
