I agree with the last 3 points, I was only responding to your previous post. Take a look at the original studies, or the Scientific American article for a quicker read. (I read it in paper form, so you can probably find it as easily as I c

Well, it's rather obvious that 10,000 hours of practicing golfing strokes without spending any time learning how to aim would be a waste of time. From what I can see, this doesn't inherently conflict with your claims about innate difference

Based on the first book, lucky is probably right. She needed the experience of danger in order to broaden her horizons and to grow as a person. Clearly, I haven't read enough of the series to comment on the last statement .... and they cou

I'm assuming you did not have group insurance at some point so it was deemed preexisting? Otherwise, how did they get out of paying for it?

For what it is worth, it's actually fiber to the house. But good luck connecting a computer directly to that fiber. Now, practically speaking, fiber to a gigabit network connection should be all you need, but it's practically not much of

But if they are willing to work for that rate, they might only be worth it. At a minimum, I'd give them a few test assignments and be prepared to back them up before sending them to anyone else under your name. Alternately, give a known qu

If you are going for a clean design, you can go in the opposite direction too. I'm fairly sure Ethernet and html evolved from a working solution. Now, granted there should be a really clean and open interface if we are going to try and mak

This data is already 10 years old. That means Detroit has already started shrinking, and therefore the new Detroit, if kept as an independent city, would be consuming more of Michigan.

Having worked on part of the E911 systems, any 911 call in an area that supports the 3rd level of E911 would automatically request and receive the GPS data. 8 Million requests is not hard to believe or surprising, as they have 48 million cu

The ratio is only referring to sulfur. I'm fairly sure the high octane required for jet fuel would prohibit most sulfur emissions. Additionally, the weight sensitivity would be an added incentive to reduce any unused components, such as su

Not sure about the final released product, but the fingerworks prototypes were completely customizable.

I had interned with Fingerworks prior to the formal release of the project. The main problem I heard about was the demand cost/issues. Outside of the proposed UI changes, Fingerworks product did all of this. I still wish I had bought one w

Sure, most people hear radioactive, and think of Chernobyl, cancer, and Godzilla. In reality, radiation is everywhere, and it's a question of levels and risk. I doubt the radiation in bricks would compare to the exposure to radon in the ty

Then she should be applying at the private schools, who still have the option of paying her less.

This is probably closely connected to why Florida is in the bottom 25% of states in terms of school quality. The red tape scares away some of the best teachers. Of course, I'm not sure any of those rankings compensate for social-economic fa

Practically speaking, at a minimum, she should be required to demonstrate an ability to student teach for a half year before being hired. There are definitely some tricks to running a good classroom, but I have no idea if the education cour

It's possible to teach a subject while not being an expert. That's where a good teacher pulls them in and helps teach the students how to learn on their own. That being said, this requires a teacher who is at least as intelligent as their

Useful link, but I think your interpretation is slightly off. I don't think that table is limited to full time teachers. Table 10 seems to make it clear that it isn't. The full time teachers that I know put in more than 40 hours a week. T

First, you should be talking to her, not us. You need to come up with an idea of what you are expecting to do with your life first, but if you want a relationship to last, it's going to be all about compromise. You're trying to decide what'

The writeup makes it sound like a bold idea. I'm curious to see where it goes. Yeah, as zck pointed out, the heavy sign up front will reduce turn over.

Sure, but the bigger differences are usually made while people are younger. It gives them more time to take advantage of them and grow with them. *addendum: In short, if they can appreciate the university lecture, odds are they've already

How are you defining a site and uptime? Are you talking about dynamically switching systems to allow for upgrades without downtime? I'm mostly wondering how it compares with the setup at my current location. I have worked on systems that w
