that only works for some languages - as someone else mention chinese is quite a conceptual language. I've read 3 different translations of Tao Te Ching, and there have been some wild differences. One of the copies that i have has the authors translation, and then the remaining 2/3 of the book devoted to explaining the different possible meanings of each and every sentence

if anyone hasn't seen it, the movie flash of genius is a great story about the patent battles of the guy who invented intermittent windscreen wiper.

obviously you've never worked in any industry that has regulatory obligations. I work for a bank, on the team that looks after blocking all of this. We don't allow linkedin. We don't allow installing arbitrary software. We don't allow accessing personal email from work devices or vice versa. Regulators can, and will, fine you for doing these things without consulting them.

Checking the about page is pretty terrifying... Wade is founder of SeekingArrangement.com - the leading sugar daddy dating website, SeekingMillionaire.com - a millionaire matchmaking website, WhatsYourPrice.com - where singles bid for first dates, and MissTravel.com - the first travel dating website.

i'm pretty sure in both Australia and New Zealand immigration they have signs saying no photography/audio recording devices/cell phones. Honestly i've never had a problem with this, the only thing worse than waiting in line for immigration would be waiting in line for immigration behind someone having an overly loud conversation on their phone

coincidentally i had almost the same situation happen to me (hired as a dev, project kept getting pushed back and back, had no work to do for 4 months). i spent my time reading books from project gutenberg, one ofthem being The Trial

i tried watching this on my work laptop which forces me to use IE8. i got a grey screen, without even any text

thats a fantastic explanation, thanks

my first thought as i read that sentence...

i don't have the greatest understanding of how speakers work, so correct me if i'm wrong, but wouldn't an increase in energy efficiency (making the speakers easier to drive) mean that for the same volume level on a source, the graphene speaker be louder? i sometimes find that at lowest level my headphones can be a bit to loud in some quiet environments, so graphene headphones would be even worse

~8 years for me - definitely agree about the sluggishness, but i can't say i've noticed any problems with the sync feature.

or rather than having real beans, have fake beans at the bottom. I'm assuming that at some point the real beans in the reservoir would go off

as little as this adds to the discussion, i think the title of the article is a huge exaggeration - uploading a geotagged image to a photosharing site that then displays the geotag in a user friendly format is hardly "stealing your data"

do you have any case studies / articles to back this up? i had fairly bad scoliosis when i was younger which was corrected by chiropractic, and i got back every few months for a bit of preventative maintenance. i'd honestly like to see if it's justified or if i'm just waisting my 20 dollars...

i can't say i know of many companies that exclude people because theyre not members of the ACS. I work for an investment bank, and i have friends from uni who work everywhere from the IT department at one of our supermarket chains to the big 4 audit firms, and i don't know of any who actually have ACS accreditation

Korean names are in the order Family Name then First name. They refer to him by his family name, so its easy to confuse him, his brother, and his father

for some reason it would continuously flick between on and off, even when i had it disabled, so i just gave up on it too

I used to work in a supermarket in Australia, and we had a very similar problem. We'd lose $10,000 a month in Olay products, virtually all of which would end up at the local markets. It's not as uncommon as you might think
