We can look at the Reno air races as an example. It's been going on for 49 years and prior to today there were 19 deaths, none involving spectators. I've been going to the races for a lot of years though we decided not to this year, the cou

This is really good advice and I hope the survey creator takes it. For question six specifically there's a big difference between "I only use free tools" and "I'm not interested in paying for the service described."

I see all of those things on Google+ all the time. The thing is they are all posted to specific circles and not publicly. A 41% drop in public posts is only somewhat meaningful. Of my family members that post on Google+ most of them moved f

He may have simply thought he didn't need to do anything since the police are obviously aware of the situation.

Right, he was on medical leave. He retained the title and was involved in all major strategic decisions. Tim Cook was left to handle daily operations and was essentially acting CEO. While I would be surprised if Jobs didn't know about a los

Sure, if any of this is true it's very likely that Jobs was kept aware of the situation or even advised on how to proceed. At the end of the day this happened under Cook because Cook was the acting CEO. edit: I don't know of a better way to

Jobs has been on medical leave since January and Tim Cook has been acting as CEO since then. Jobs just stepped aside completely in August by resigning.

Not really, if he honestly thought that the people that came to his door were police officers he would initially have had no reason to reach out to the police. Even after it's brought to his attention by the reporter, he might still think h

Sort of. Rackable bought SGI the last time SGI went into Chapter 11 bankruptcy, then announced that they (Rackable) would start using the SGI moniker.

The last two or three releases on the dev branch of Chrome seem to have cleared up all the Chrome crashes for me. It was however unusable for a few weeks right after the Lion release.

If the Apple TV wasn't stuck at 720p I would probably consider it. I have a friend currently doing a similar setup to what I have with the PS3 via a Logitech Revue and if that ends up working out well I will probably pick one up. The additi

I can't recall the last time I actually used the PS3 to play a game. It's probably been more than a year. We do use it every day however to watch Netflix or Hulu. It's used a couple times a week to stream content using DLNA and Twonky Serve

We can expect this to not impact how the parties work against each in the least. The ratings agencies said up front what they were expecting to see in the debt deal and congress didn't come close.

Where you do run into problems is with people that have one name, or more than three names. Splitting those up wrong or putting them into the wrong fields can constitue a technical error on the forms, with the I-9 that means accruing civil

by ktsmith 15y ago
I think the pattern is that if the name is relevant data to what the form is used for it's broken out, possibly to aid with data entry. When the name is attached to a signature then it's just so that there's a legible version. With the I-9

This is true in most cases but not all. I deal with data going onto government forms, see lots of work visas etc. The U.S. government is more than happy to tell you that your name is invalid, or data enter garbage into their databases to ma
