It seems to me using a plane would be a bit of a slippery slope then. A commercial airplane's main purpose is to access somewhere beyond one's own community, and the experiences of international travel to a foreign land will chang

Yeah, and I could have Googled it, too, but I asked here instead. But you got me. I went back to work after the section where they talk about not having a car, internet, or computer.

Did the missionary eschew modern technology in order to get to the Philippines? Got it guys, the answer is no. They use technology when it suits them.

Sure, and I wasn't attempting to correct you. Merely pointing out the original premise is not true.

Ha, looks like my opinions hurt someone's feelings and got downvoted. Meh. >SHIFT-PRNTSCN? It's got a labeled key on the keyboard! Right. I meant it was less logical on OSX. Cmd-shift-3? Bizarre. And yeah, I had to google it ag

I don't really feel like Metro is going towards OS X at all, they seem to be strongly going their own way. >Outside of the "real" shell the entire UI doesn't seem to be designed for software professionals Interesting,

Well, it is easy. You just say it is, while your army of engineers slaves away in the background 6 days a week to prove you right. Tada! Pharaoh: "Pyramids? Pffft, easy."

Yeah, if you're going to do a 3d bar chart over a map, then I'd want to be able to zoom and rotate.

I have a hypothesis. And I think it applies to your comparison with religion as well. It has nothing to do with the typical "sheeple" argument. Or at least, that's only half of it. It's a matter of "forces", eq

Huh? Chinese culture (whether we're talking about the losers of the civil war or the victors) is not nearly as hierarchical as Japan's (or Korea's).

BS. Half the comments would be slamming them that it's only for Safari (just look at the comments for the stories involving Apple's safari-only streams). I think skywhopper hit it on the head. Just good ol' abuse of the word

There are some odd policies here. There's the crazy non-compete clause (if those are allowed, the former company should pay for however long the clause lasts). Then there's the "Performance Improvement Plan." I don'

Our team chose to use angular admittedly because of its popularity (it's also why we chose bootstrap over foundation, though that probably had smaller repercussions). Most of the rest of the team then ran off to work on other stuff, so

I could be interpreting your comment wrong, but it seems to put the onus heavily on the teacher, which seems a bit naive. My friend just started teaching in New York actually. And she specifically wanted to teach at a Title 1 school (i.e. p

$5. Not much but not insignificant. I'd rather AT&T just not lock it. Edit: I thought I had read $5, but now I can't find that source, so who knows.

That's pretty unfair. Should we label you the WW1 Trench Warfare Generation? Because rushing towards the machine guns might work this time. Heroic, and exceedingly hopeful, but ultimately an utter fail.

In addition to the page count people are mentioning, I don't think the Google factor is fair either. Almost anything can be googled, short of bleeding edge, very technical work. It's all about presentation/wording and how eas

I don't think this is supposed to align against Mac Pros (plus what people are already saying with the chipset memory limitation)

Exactly. If a dog views the same scene as me, and it presumably sees only black and white, did we see a different reality? No, we saw different colors.
