Na, the Jersey tough guy would probably just rat out some accomplices and soon be living under an assumed identity in Arizona. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammy_Gravano Unlike DPR, this guy had a lifetime of criminal

If there isn't difference in ability (which I think there probably is), there is certainly difference in inclination. I work with a couple of guys that want to learn to program. They try. Sort of. They took the same online classes I di

He seems like a smart guy and a good guy overall...(yes, I know he allegedly attempted to hire a hit-man and we can't tolerate crime etc. etc.). It's a shame to see his entire life wasted for an (admittedly rather large) youthful

I'm sure the first book was very good but I never read it and feel negatively about it. Why? Simple. Because it was on the high school required reading list. I looked around at the teachers, looked around at the town, looked around at

I would argue that having offspring with the best chance of surviving and prospering is the most pressing problem and always has been.

And then they try to make up for it with free meals and a "family" feel while underpaying his work ethic and loyalty. It's a common trick.

Does anyone have any a recommendation? I've been wanting to get a mechanical keyboard.

You would still take a job if you had 10M in the bank? I might.. but it wouldn't be for the money. It would be out of interest (which is already what I do).

Maybe it was the banks idea? Keep the society banking rather than seeing it destabilize and Russia come in with an "answer". 31 Million isn't much.

I wonder if this has anything to do with attempts to tamp down Russia's influence in the region. Poor people without a lot to loose are destabilizing force in a society. 31 Million is peanuts to help insure order. Maybe banks and corpo

I'm surprised someone has time to play with kids like this much less blog about it. Wish I had that much time.

I wouldn't even say eye candy. More like eye abuse.

I'm thinking this fellows opinion is a minority one, and his psychology degree must have come in the mail so he probably isn't licensed to diagnosis people in my state. Not a fan of Windows8. The 10 preview I played with was an ab

Traditionally, discipline was often "improved" by a third party. Sometimes I'm really grateful for my Dad who insisted chores were done and done properly, I was out of bed on time, and that homework was done to spec. I resent

Why stop with professional sports? How about auto racing? Square dancing? Championship wrestling? Rooster fighting? Would it be elitist to have a disinterest in those things? At some point you have to say... this is not something that inter

Why in the world would I try to take an interest in a topic I have no interest in in order to fit in with people on a level I have no interest in fitting in? Life is very simply to short to be excited about these kind of things. As it is, I

Throughout my career I have met more than a few semi-professional meeting attenders. They are usually the worst type of people to be in a meeting with. And like a lot of people with stuff to do, I find most meetings a waste of time and gene

Agreed on rarity of the ability to logically break things into steps. I'd like to add... I've met a few construction project managers that appear to have it.

This sounds similar to being an IT guy in a big organization. They have 5 minutes, they think they know better (and occasionally they do), they might listen to you and you have to beg them to do so. Except the ending. That sounds like someo

I think capitalism will kill artificial intelligence. Just look in boardrooms and classrooms and senates across the world and see what it's done to the real thing.

Sounds like the group that is more of interest is the .01% or .001%. Love to see a map of that. Because nickle millionaires with $800,000 of home equity probably aren't the global movers and shakers.....

Yep. I think that's exactly the kind of thing they look for. What I didn't realize was better stated above. 80 cards handed to TSA agent 10 of which contained "alarming" words in Arabic. I thought there was more to the s

This is horrible, and the abuses of police and security personal in the US are egregious. In addition, US foreign policy as of late (late being the the last 150 years or so) is also pretty lame. That said, I often suspect there is more to s

For me, lines of code per day varies depending on what is being done and how. If it's a meaty problem that is not well understood, or a language or framework I'm unfamiliar with, or I sense the situation is complex enough that an

I would love to own absolutely nothing, but have a portal follow me around, and anything I needed appeared through the portal, then disappeared as soon as I didn't need it anymore. I bet something like this is one day possible and it h
