    Ongoing Terrorist Attack on Canadian Parliament

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The problem is that you're going too philosophical. Ideas will never be stopped. There is no way to get rid of an idea, which is man's greatest freedom and man's biggest curse. And yes, ideas often outlive the person. Here the problem is different, and it's very short termed. ISIS is becoming...

    Question Redacted..

    off topic: Great pic. Dude, I am a great admirer of Von Braun. I read many bios, seen the places where he worked etc. I actually have a pic of me similar to the one you chose as avatar, made at an unknown NASA facility in Mississippi I stumbled upon by chance (only in the US you can choose the...

    Ongoing Terrorist Attack on Canadian Parliament

    OFF-TOPIC 
    nuke the bastards, starting from Iraq. No need to give weapons to any anti-ISIS group that will fight against us ten years from now, using the same weapons.

    I am not an expert, but be careful for your reputation. After all you're proposing to do something against the guy that is currently paying you. (at least that's what I understand)

    Harassment from a Slowlane in Education

    SLOWLANE 
    Just contact as many "big heads" as possible. Board of school, Government entities etc. Just send a nice, brief letter to the professor with all the cc's you can think of (not general 'info' inboxes. Be specific), giving him the possibility to amend for his mistake or requesting further proof...

    Harassment from a Slowlane in Education

    SLOWLANE 
    If they are accusing, the burden of proof falls on them. Just preempt if necessary by replying (CCing the dean of your uni, head of dept, and State board of Education) saying that you find the accusation preposterous and lacking factual evidence. Actually be the one that requests such evidence...

    This is how much college costs

    HOT! 
    Not true. I had $100K/yr jobs without a degree. Heck, without eveng being a native speaker. Degrees CAN help, but as experience it is only the PERSON itself that can make time/money investment useful and fruitful.

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    They know who was on that plane. Instead of having people go to the hospital, can't they tell them to stay in an isolated place (house?) until someone go get 'em? I don't understand the whole "if you don't feel well, come to the hospital" thing.

    Great post, thank you. I needed it, this week was one of those weeks where I hope to be hit by some big trailer and just end it.

    Why Facebook is a Joke (And various social media/smartphone insanity)

    NOTABLE! HOT! MARKETING 
    Don't you think it's overkill? they could've kept an official FB page, and updated it just once every two weeks or so. I understand avoiding FB obsession - either for personal stuff or business - but I don't see anything wrong with keeping an account with just a few posts. It might be true that...

    Why Facebook is a Joke (And various social media/smartphone insanity)

    NOTABLE! HOT! MARKETING 
    Getting "rid" of facebook is one of the best decisions I ever made. I couldn't stand spending hours on useless crap anymore. Anniversaries, marriages, vacations and so on. It' cool if you see one or two a week, but when it's EVERY f-in' day... There is this guy that actually celebrates his...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    1) It’s Casanova. 2) Patents ARE a matter of national interest, they are not just to “gain and maintain control” of something. 3) Patents work as a protection for both the inventor and the public. Again, I agree that too often this does not applies, but that’s a fault in the application of our...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    It is now evident that you have no clue how patents work and what viruses are. You make the assumption that patent = money. Or copyright = money. It is also evident that you don't know why patents and copyright exist. Unleashed on people... Please. Movies ain't science.

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    why not? nuclear weapons are patentable, and they are potentially more destructive than any virus. The problem is that you see the virus, while the patent sees and protects the science behind the virus. Just to discover a virus there is a LOT of research that is needed, probably more than we can...

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    It's not a matter of the medical system (which, by the way, I can't stand). It's a matter of protecting science through patents. I might add that too often this "protection" doesn't work as it should.

    Ebola in the USA... Anyone Concerned?

    HEALTH 
    No. You will find many viruses patented to many entities, including CDC and non-American entities. I believe that this is the patent of the HIV virus : http://www.google.com/patents/US4647773
