    You need to calm down. I made that statement based on personal experience and that I find laughable the idea that women are somehow too incompetent to kill themselves. What does th…

    The women I've known who "attempted" suicide weren't really trying to kill themselves. It was either attention seeking behavior or an attempt to punish people in their social circl…

    That's why they call it "climate change" now, instead of "global warming". This way if it gets warmer - climate change. If it gets cooler - climate change. Bad weather? Climate cha…

    >But making the leap from that to "my code can't harm people" is a bridge too far. Meh. My application is an internal app for a large company. It's basically scheduling software fo…

    My ethics are my own. I see no reason to make a public spectacle out of it one way or another.

    It's odd that we never heard about that when the polar bears were supposed to drown.

    >1) This is going to be used, fast, by the climate change denial camp to show "everything is OK", sad but true. Seems pretty fair, doesn't it? I mean, any decreases have certainly …

    I love the World Service. I just want to hear the news without gimmicks.

    I'm not sure I would call herpes a benign virus. There are strains that will kill you.

    That's a terrible example. Those John Doe investigations were a great example of prosecutorial abuse. If I had been Walker I would have had the state AG indict the prosecutors invo…

    Most people who own a house or have savings or have family can scrape together enough money to engage a lawyer. How much that actually costs depends on the charge. So many cases ar…

    Statistically the rich don't do any better than anyone who can afford a lawyer. The people who get screwed are the ones relying on court-appointed counsel. They do significantly wo…

    It's really past time to get rid of the qualified immunity doctrine. It's yet another "law" made up by the supreme court from whole cloth. Prosecutors should be fully liable for il…
