If you're going to bring up slavery, you must also acknowledge that part of the push to end slavery came from Christians who denounced slavery. This started well before the Civil War and all of the economic implications of stopping the Conf

Can you expand on that? I'm using Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m on Windows 7 Pro and it looks fine to me. The visual display is legible and very clear.

Why a taser? Couldn't they just slap her in handcuffs and escort her out of the store? Protocol. It took awhile before the second officer arrived. She resisted arrest for 15 minutes. The alternative at that point is to either use a club o

After the last drone fiasco, how about GPS signal overloading? Terra-forming (moving landmarks or painting hills with reflective paint of sorts) and cloud salting could also bear some interesting results to at least introduce noise into the

I agree that this will (and should) end up with 'super aware' pilots. There is a lot of work that can be and should be automated so that a pilot only does what is absolutely necessary -- tactical strategy and anticipation of human responses

First of all such employee, won't be involved in politics. They will alway try to improve themselves rather than comparing their team-members.And also it adds value to their resumes. Regardless of extra-curricular activities there will al

Who says that anyone was spying? It's not a disgusting attitude but rather a legitimate come back to someone who is behaving as if they have something to hide.

Personal background: I work in a company with ~80 employees owned by a company that totals around 300 employees that was just bought by a company that is... big. While there are some good points, many of the points seem lacking in experienc

Given that YouTube allows custom "opener" screens, why must a rather bad frame-still of Bill Gates be used? Bias, perhaps? Would this have happened if it were Steve Jobs?

It's not a stretch at all, considering it's a partial quote. Read the article before getting into a knot. If you scroll down you will see a screenshot from Ubuntu which says, "Pay what you think it's worth" which is followed with subtitle t

It's things like this which make me want to create a free, opensource, fully featured but well designed version of the various software programs I occasionally need to use. Something without gimmicks, easy to use, doesn't have a super-flash

My wife and I moved into a 600sqft condo and part of the downsizing were books from the past 10-15 years. Going forward we're going digital to save on physical space. Also, the puppy can't chew up our tablet as easy as a physical book ;-)

Console wars are far from over, and they are still duking it out whether or not PC gaming is "dead". Best to have friends who have the competing technologies to what you have so you get to enjoy all of it.

"do a barrel roll" and "tilt" weren't directly useful, but they were certainly fun. However, consider the potential ways that Google may have coded this and potentially been useful: identifying names and finding relationships with certain p

When HQ came into the office and firing off nerf arrows (no gun required) at all of us and turned Dev and Support into a mini-nerf-warzone, it was one of the best things that happened to us. Of course, it was a Friday and we lost tons of pr

You are being mocking and misunderstanding my intent. A proper scientific approach would independently and fully evaluate the effects rather than assuming it is "ok". That is not fear-mongering, it is good scientific process that requires a

Thanks for the information... that's actually news to me. In Canada I've mostly seen salt, water, and "natural preservatives".

> Fear-mongering nonsense. Irradiation doesn't make food radioactive. It just kills what's growing on the food without noxious chemicals. Is that all they're doing? They said something similar about dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT)

You may need to adjust your monitor settings or buy a new monitor. The difference between #232323 and #FBFAF7 should be enough contrast. The Trek logo is even higher contrast as #FFF and #171717.

Potentially, it isn't just support costs to respond and potentially fix bugs. Instagram stores photos. Netflix pays bandwidth and storage charges for cloud hosting. All of this costs money.

What exactly are you assuming are the costs when calculating the marginal cost of that cup of coffee? The rise in the total cost of producing another cup of coffee is not that much -- not anywhere close to the total price, or else nobody wo
