So by that logic he's somewhat less (potentially) guilty because there's only one (potentially real) transcript of him ordering a hit? Perhaps I'm just not understanding what you're attempting to say.

Machine learning. If you also happen to be interested in finance, or think it might interest you at some point later, you could transition to quant finance (where machine learning will also be very usefull). See if this piques your interest

I'm testing an LED light currently, it's color-changing via remote, but not the expensive Philips Hue kind. I'm using it on Orange for early mornings and Red for when I have to stay up late with work. I think it's probab

Sadly, I don't think it's restricted to the U.S. I live somewhere in Europe and mobile phone contracts are always less advantageous (fewer benefits, higher cost) as compared to regular prepaid cards. The only reason I've held

I think portability is the reason why I opted for the 15-inch model originally, but in the end it seems that I don't carry it outside that much. However, I can assure you that you made the right decision if you're using it for wor

Well, I hope they nuke this one off their potential future logo replacements, because it's honestly terrible. It barely has any personality.

I think you're probably confusing it with something similarly named. See http://www.cs.umn.edu/news/news.php?id=1293 which confirms it's being offered for the 1st time.

The issue you mentioned is indeed quite sneaky, but getting a page full of ads when mistyping a domain name for example is very 'in your face' I'd say. I don't really understand how it could be interpreted as 'sneak

I think the main reason why any reasonably complex grader is not allowed to run after the course has officially finalized is cost(s). While for users it's free to take the course, the offering company probably has to pay fees to whatev
