Maybe it's neither for God nor for us but rather for the benefit of those claiming to speak on behalf of God.

All of these things, although unpleasant, can be worked with except one: "Does not pay properly or on time." There is no option. You owe them nothing. Quit. Immediately.

Eh, I always want one of these secular communities to take off and flourish but they never seem to. Possibly the principals of "think for yourself", "relative and perspective", "freedom of association" are anti

Well it's not anymore. There is a very clear picture of torn off arms lying in the gutter.

Maybe when the delivery drone thing kicks off (if ever) they can make a slightly larger one and deliver people also. For that matter, if they can remote pilot a drone load of missiles to Afghanistan I don't see why it can't be don

Where is the word lazy mentioned or even implied? I do like working. And this is a traditional characteristic of Americans. With all the America bashing that goes on (some admittedly deserved) this is a thing I'm particularly proud of

What's the difference? Work. Bees don't do it.

I'm actually 44 years old. But sometimes I feel like I'm still in my early 20's. I credit it to staying interested and staying moving. I'm not single either. I have a great girlfriend I've lived with for over 10 yea

I don't think trolling. I'm just saying I like being busy. I don't want hour and half lunches at the cafe. I don't want 6 weeks a year off. I like working, I like making stuff and I like making money. I like resting too.

Any smart boss with decision making power should instantly give workers an additional 2 weeks off for a 10% pay cut. (Assuming the workers work more than 20 weeks a year and their duties can be taken up by someone else). It's pure prof

I'm a little surprised by the negative reaction. You people don't derive pleasure from working... from the process of building things, from molding reality? I damn sure do. But then again... I'm an American.

So do it. Do what makes you happy. If you aren't happy working or you don't get enough time off... change the situation. But don't spend a bunch of your life unsatisfied.

Yes... there is something seriously wrong here. If you don't enjoy your work, quit! I work because I love it. The money is a nice side benefit.

More money would make me happier. I'd give up a few Saturdays for it. One day a week is enough rest. Besides, few pleasures compare to productively working.

Well... at one point the loser in the cyber war might decide real bullets can compensate for a loss in cyberspace... I wouldn't count on China coming out on top at that point. But more than likely it will stay just short of that and be

R.E. the suggestion people are going to work longer... Doing what? It's hard enough to get hired at 55 never mind 75.

I was hoping for an explanation of how they are able to pinpoint exactly which direction to dig and come up. I mean.. coming up into a 2 foot square from 35 feet underground from a mile away isn't something you guess at. GPS signals do

Don't you specifically have to configure Apache to allow access to dot directories in the first place? (disclaimer, I didn't read the article... but if access to dot directories were enabled.. ya, .git would be exposed, but I&#x27

Probably some cops say (or at least secretly think) exactly the same kinds of things you are saying about black people . "If they would just act right... until then, fuck em. They don't deserve respect." What exactly does ac

Oh, don't misunderstand me. I'm not suggesting bad cop behavior should be "cut a break". I'm just saying cops are humans... just like you and I. For this alone they are worth a certain measure of respect. Also, they

So what? We probably also have a legal right to walk up to random people in the mall and tell them to go fuck themselves. But why would we? There is a police problem in the country sure. A startling proportion of police are probably abusive

How Academia does not resemble a drug gang: 1)Drug gangs don't have an excess of lazy administrative support staff. 2)Drug gangs actually have to deliver some drugs at some point. 3)The politics of drug gangs are less vicious and there

A person who thinks at the level this article was written at probably isn't going to have a business to fire the victim from in 9 months. That is, assuming they find someone smart enough to do all the heavy lifting but foolish enough t

10,000 years is long time in a freezer. I throw even hamburger away after a year or so. The only way I see it happening is a multi-generational trip. Or sending some raw material with instructions and a platform to reconstruct DNA and grow

But what if the citizens of Squanderville have a bunch of guns and aren't afraid to engage in ruthless activity to prop up their lifestyle?

I like. It has easy to glean information and no extraneous clutter. I personally have grown weary of pages with little to no information and half blurred pictures of people in coffee shops. And don't get me started on the scroll bar tr

Other way around. You need 64bit to use more than 4GB ram.
