What, that they had a human interest in Swartz while planning his blackmail? No, that's not at all plausible . "Plausible" means "likely", not "tcuk positing something that can't be proved impossible". The term you're looking for is "clut

If we exclude stuff like OLAP and spatial databases, there are only 3 types of database: relational, pointer and logical. Relational means something that accepts Codd's constraints, more-or-less. Pointer is something that doesn't, and which

How about you give up on your mind reading powers for a while? I'm sure you can read the psychology of Ortiz and every other prosecutor, and determine that their opinions of Aaron Swartz are exactly like normal people . I'd rather believe

Wow, personal attacks already It is dishonest to say you are checking if someone "is a cultural fit" when what you actually mean is "will take my crap". God forbid you do your job and try to work with "difficult" people; you'd rather pa

There is NO reason for thinking that someone who walks away from the "weakness question" would walk away from difficult or tedious work. That is a dishonest rationalization that you have bolted on to hide your real motives. You want t

How was Steve Jobs "big"? The man was an asshole who became what he was by exploiting other people and taking credit for their work. That's precisely why any nice guy is "bigger" than Jobs. (And probably any random hacker was more technic

The degree is there to show that the candidate is qualified. One can't tell by mind-reading a candidate. Unless the candidate was too poor to afford the school, or born in the 3rd world, or something like that, there's not much excuse for

Absent massive political change, the only way the price will come down for humanities degrees is if people stop signing up for them. Supply and demand. It is the logical next step to tell the colleges: "No, I will not pay the same for your

Sorry no that's an obvious Americanism (American right-ism). Nobody else on the planet says SOCIALISM with the Bill O'Reilly sneer and think that's a debate-ender. Try to imagine a Chinese or a Frenchman saying that. Doesn't work. That's

This is such bullshit. When AIG and Lehman went down, the crisis had already hit. That's what was meant by "financial crisis". The government actions to abilout AIG only happened after . So you have your timelines backwards. And the NINJA

Because your views are stupid. Easy example: a homeless tramp dying of ebola. (You can substitute a bunch of other diseases naturally occuring in the USA if you like) You'd normally want to pack that guy into a medical isolation unit pronto

No, Greece could have defaulted completely on its bonds - which were held by the German banks. Then Greece would be OK, and the German banks about to fall like dominoes. Then the Germans might have become more reasonable about a bailout. Af
