   Several comments on the Youtube page say it's fake, chiefly because the iPhone jack cannot output video. Is this true? If so, is it possible he wrote an app with special drivers to pull this off?

   For mental work, sleep is not replenishment, it's prep work. Your brain is thinking problems while you sleep.

   The key to this post is that the candy-throwing experiment is not failure. It's training to become oblivious to public criticism, so one doesn't choke and fail in actual endeavors.

   I was hoping the "novel" approach would be to use realistic fiction to get students inside the mind of a programmer, using actual languages. A novel has an advantage over an autobiography because the characters can be put in teaching situat

   What do you do when that happens? Can you get a court order to let you back in the building?

    This sort of thing is fun, but it sounds more simplistic than Tolkien's universe and philosophies. I will read it with interest. Can someone comment as to the quality of the Russian version?

    Thanks. I was thinking about getting a Makerbot. I'll look into these others.

    OEM is to be installed on new equipment from manufacturers that have an OEM agreement with Adobe per the license. It doesn't matter that nobody else has used that copy. Just speaking from my experience searching in vain for legitimately che

    You might as well have pirated it because you are violating the agreement by installing OEM on a different computer.

    In these cases it is important for families to pull together. I would rather see the children get jobs and help feed the family than waste away in a school learning nothing because the parents are fighting off starvation.

    Why the downvote? Companies are priced based on potential earnings as well as actual earnings. For example, the potential earnings of collateralized mortgages were thought to be high, so the companies that owned them were priced to account

    I like garysimon.net. I'm a satisfied customer. I hope you won't use the crowd-sourced sites as they don't respect the time of designers.

    I would never trust you to make decisions for my children. That is essentially what you are proposing, since you do not say "CPS should decide whether parents may keep their children" but rather say that CPS should follow your policy. I con
