Isn't the worst case global warming scenario a sea level rise of a few centimeters over the next thirty years. Flooding of major cities sounds highly unlikely.

It's liberal doublespeak. They support wars until they're started, then are shocked when they aren't over in two weeks, and people die. Clinton voted to enter Iraq.

That's a technique used to gauge your alertness/nervousness and truthfullness. He probably does know a lot about it.

I don't doubt their story at all. A few weeks ago my girlfriends car was legally parked and towed. I know that it was legally parked because the night before, I parked next to her and noticed that her parking pass was a different color th

Bingo. She's not asking for more because she's trying to make it cheaper for him to just pay her, than it would be for him to fight her. Why does she deserve anything for his work?

I use chrome because it's fast, and the multi-process browsing is a game changer. I would much rather have to restart a tab than restart a browser. Graceful crash handling is important.

Not on the iPhone. I'd trade performance for garbage collection. Memory leaks are very common.

At a certain point economics would dictate that fish farms would be cheaper than commercial fishing due to scarcity. Plus you could probably charge a premium to gouge the hippies for their compassion, desire for 'clean-water' fish, saving

Can anyone in algorithmic trading/investment software suggest a good place to start reading and learning about the subject? In particular, I'd like to learn about investment strategies and algorithmic trading. It seems like many of you wo

Interesting thought. Could be a killer iPad application if you could partner with a hardware manufacturer to produce a cash drawer dock. High quality, capacitive touch screen and a integrated cellular modem for trade shows. Cost wise, it

I'm sure this will do what I want, but I think it's more complicated than I need.

I think I'll probably end up building something, and if I publicly release it, I would have to charge something to cover the risk from fraud, and the transaction processing costs. My initial thought is to charge between 5 and 10 percent of

I took a look at node.js for my latest project because it could seriously benefit from the asynchronous nature. I found that the ecosystem was too fractured for me to be able to quickly determine what would work best. What's the best node

Boating in general. In particular, I love wakeboarding, and I have a stand-up jet ski. The stand-up is my favorite. An 800cc, 80hp engine producing 700lbs of thrust in a <400lb fueled vehicle is pretty intense. There is nothing like

Unfortunately there is more to this than server support. IE6 and every browser on XP, including firefox and chrome, don't support the tls extension. Even apache doesn't ship with it. For all practical purposes, name based virtual hosting

Quickbooks sucks in a major way. If you could come up with a simple accounting system that didn't take three full minutes to load, even with an SSD, 4 processing cores, and 8GB of memory, you'd have a winner. Even if your software was rea

I can't get firmware updates for two year old servers because of the Oracle takeover. My company will never purchase an Oracle product, they screw their customers.

My area has very lax telecom regulation and we've had fios available fir years, and two competing cable companies. Prices are some of the lowest, and speeds are some of the fastest in the country.

Oracle has been extremely hostile to former sun customers. I can't even download firmware now without buying service contracts for all my servers. If they won't even provide proper service to hardware customers, I think they will be downri

This whole premise is stupid. We don't seem to have a problem with the lack of female linesmen, plumbers, construction workers, electricians, HVAC specialists, or garbage men. There isn't a pest control or sewage treatment Barbie. There

I took a look at your book and was interested in the subject, but found the page off-putting as the grandparent suggested. Looked kind of scammy to me, so I assumed it wouldn't be worth the time.

This is a huge problem lately. In the last two weeks we've seen hostile action from Apple, Facebook, Ning, Stack Overflow, and Twitter. Building something with other peoples tools is too risky at this point. If you're successful, they'll

Maybe you're looking somewhere I'm not, but the 0.8% figure under the 'Other' Category would seem to support what I'm saying, since it excludes people knowing sleeping with people that are known to have AIDS, Needle Drug users, and gay male
