That is also very puzzling. It gives the above quote but it does not say whether these odds were actually displayed on the screen of this particular game, and it does not say which odds were displayed (the ones with using autohold or the on

Really bad article. Goes to great lengths to glamorize that Curzi person, yet does not provide some of the most crucial information on the subject. For example - does oregon law require that the machines have certain winning percentage? And

(1) People will die if they haven't already. Nuclear related deaths are drastically under-reported, because all governments try very hard to make nuclear look safe. When people die from Fukushima they will be reported dead from cancer

Yes, it is an expression usually used to refer to relatively poor innocent people. This does not apply here, poor people are not getting into the private funding rounds of top tier start-ups. So even if you use the expression figuratively,

Yes he is wrong. This is a non-sequitur. He is offering a conclusion that does not follow from his argument. Why should the lack of liquidity cause a bubble? Usually lack of liquidity acts in the opposite direction. It causes prices to go d

So Cuban is essentially complaining that the market for small time ipos is dead. Maybe he is right, I do not know. But I am very much against any attempts to lessen the reporting requirements for IPOs. What people complaining about the SEC

You are absolutely right. I don't know what widows and orphans he is talking about, but it is very unlikely that anyone of the people pushing hundreds of millions of dollars into start-ups today has any problem affording repairs on the

Just curious did you actually want to fly to new york? Or was it a case of "wow it is only 1.86 to go to nyc, i guess i am going".

This does not mean much until we learn how much spectrum they used. We need more efficient use of spectrum not raw download speeds.

It looks good, but they have to get rid of the out of focus photo. Photos that are entirely out of focus are really annoying and give a lot of people headaches. Usually out of focus areas should be used to bring the eye to an object in the

No need to be baffled. The start-up graveyards are full of companies that have promised a mesh wireless system and have failed miserably. It is not fear of the unknown, it is a very healthy skepticism towards unsubstantiated marketing claim

The first and easiest thing you should do is make sure that you are clearly labelled as the project's author on the website of the project as well in the source code. If any investors get burned on this (as they probably will) you don&

An error of what magnitude? IBM has not said exactly how many people will be laid off so we do not know what the magnitude of the error will be. Furthermore, they can certainly perform a 110K layoff by splitting it into multiple layoffs of

I would very much like to laugh at Andy Tanenbaum and we all should. He deserves to be ridiculed because he was being an a-hole. He was putting down another programmer based on a theoretical mumbo jumbo when he could have proven his theorie

This is not true and this type of fatalism is just not warranted. Malaria deaths have actually been decreasing the last 20 years or so. And that is impressive because population has been increasing. http://www.who.int/gho&#x

The solution is to make nets weaker so they break if used for fishing. You do not need a strong net for mosquitoes but you do need one for fishing. Also, maybe if there is real hunger provide food relief as well.

This is a limited time promotion. The Muni price is a long term price. After a while, lyft and uber will bring their prices back up. It will be a shame if any muni services are lost in the meantime because people stupidly believe that these
