Let's say that a "non-deformed" bullet was actually suspicious and present.

Why would the conspiracy plant a non-deformed bullet? Do they lack bullet deforming capabilities? Are they blithering idiots who, despite being idiots, have somehow managed to not get caught? Is the conspiracy of people who presumably just killed the president guilty of lazy or having poor planning?

A "non-deformed" bullet is better explained by weirdness inherent in the real world than some sort of conspiracy.

Here is how a competently run conspiracy would go down:

1) *Actually* shoot him from the book depository.
2) Enjoy success.

There is no reason to throw in an intermediate "plant a weirdly non-deformed bullet" step.

I moved all of my domains from GoDaddy to Namecheap. I host my own DNS. Recently, I decided to take a stab at implementing DNSSEC, but one condition is that your registrar must support it[1], and Namecheap doesn't[2]. I'm in no rush, but it's a little disappointing. I have no idea if DNSSEC is an option when Namecheap hosts your DNS. They've also only recently added support for IPv6 glue records. Nonetheless, I'm happy to be rid of GoDaddy and find the Namecheap interface to be much simpler and easier to use (concise email notifications of logins and account changes are also nice, and readable in more email clients than the noisy upselling HTML garbage that GoDaddy spews out).

Well let's see if I can stretch my metaphor to address your points. :)

Equipment needs to be maintained to continue working at peak efficiency. Sometimes it needs to be taken offline for repairs or routine maintenance. Or maybe you realize you need to switch over an assembly line to build a different product or model more important to your bottom line.

So, yes, there are times when the software manufacturing equipment will not be manufacturing software. But you want to keep that time to a minimum and understand the cost to the business of having the equipment offline.
I've been an exclusive Namecheap user since RegisterFly screwed me out of thousands of dollars worth of domains back in 2004 with their whole fraud thing... Have been very happy customer of theirs. Great company, plus they are Anti-SOPA, having been very helpful to GoDaddy users looking to leave them when that drama went down.

You seem very (and rather irrationally) upset, so instead of responding I will just give you a (completely ulterior-motive-free) e-hug from an anglo saxon male who has so far been nearly universally told he is the "nicest guy ever" as well as the "best boyfriend ever". That said, I once got in trouble with a female superior for using the word "wench" in casual conversation. I think that's a bit extreme, but that's just me. Skins have various thicknesses when it comes to these things.

I get where you're coming from, but it's not just the privilege issue. Fundamentally youth often has the ignorance to see the path to success where the more experienced can only see the roadblocks. Usually (especially in government) they'll quickly get clobbered by reality, but every once in a while they'll do something all the graybeards thought was impossible.

That's not to say hand-wavy armchair criticism of what is obviously a quagmire isn't annoying...

Well, I took a look after posting that comment, and this is what I found: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Average_height_around_... -- sort by the first column descending, skip all the N/A items (I'm not sure why would they miss all that data for men when it's perfectly available for women) and you'll find my origin at the top of the actual results.

If we are assuming a shadowy organization of conspirators, the lead conspirators don't have to be in the plane themselves. The idea that the CIA, able to find people that are willing to remotely fly a plane into a building full of people, cannot find somebody willing to actually get onto that plane with some box cutters (or barring that, cannot coerce somebody into doing that) is silly. Hell, they could keep it simply and just find some radical muslims to do it...

Remotely controlled planes are needlessly complex with too many opportunities for failure or discovery. Any weirdness surrounding the planes and their alleged passengers is far better explained by "reality is weird". Furthermore, that weirdness isn't resolved by "empty planes" since you are now supposing that the conspirators introduced those weirdnesses while inventing fake passengers. Why would they do that? Is that them tipping their hand to the conspiracy theorists?
I regularly print coloring pages for my kids and the process is usually the same: 1) they name a character, 2) I search Google images, 3) we scroll through and pick 2-3 to print.

I asked them if they would want to use existing photos for coloring and they didn't express any interest. I think I know why -- people and places (i.e. most of the photos we have) are not as interesting to color as dragons, fairies, favorite show characters etc.
So the conspiracy decided to notify a newspaper in New Zealand in advance? And none of the many, many people involved in putting it together and printing it noticed the rather large cover story that hadn't happened yet?

I loved System 7. To me it felt like an advanced, very usable OS that could still be "understood" by the laymen.

Most crashes and bugs originated in so-called Extensions. Bugs could often be fixed by simply moving some Extensions out of the Extension folder and restarting the Mac until the buggy extension was found. Additionally it was possible to restart the Mac with all Extensions turned off by pressing the SHIFT-key on start-up.

Most of the OS could be managed by simply moving files in and out of certain System Folder directories.

It wasn't by choice. We only had $100 in our pockets because we didn't know. In most countries I had been to, its easier to use a card to pay for stuff rather than exchange cash. I figured it would be the same way in Venezuela, I just didn't know.
My favorite is when I try to take my laptop to a meeting so I can, you know, actually get some work done. And then, I'm lucky to get 5 minutes of useful work done for each hour of meeting.
I agree this is the weakest part of the analogy, as software production is so highly variable. You can have days where you see very little come out of the machine, then a great amount of valuable software come out, seemingly all at once.

I think, though, it does not invalidate the basic point of keeping the software producers on the task of software production as much as possible in order to maximize output.

At various locations, large value foreign bills can be exchanged at a rate significantly above the market here in Bangkok. (Obviously, normally a physical exchange business buys below and sells above. In this case they buy above... presumably because certain clients they onsell to want a physically compact means of storing or transmitting a internationally recognized, relatively (to local currency) stable store of value in a semi-anonymous way.)

Sounds like you're talking about old hardware though. I grew up in a Mac household and used Macs in school. We had a 128k in the 80s, but moved to the IIsi, IIci, Performa 520, PowerBooks, and PowerMacs, using various LCs in school. The PowerBooks were always black-and-white in the 68k days due to the state of LCDs at the time, but everything else I used from the 1990 IIsi on was in full color.
> What I mean when I say "lisp has no syntax" is that you effectively write out the AST

Agreed. This is a very common misunderstanding of the statement, but understanding the meaning of the statement correctly demonstrates the single reason that Lisp is so powerful: its homoiconicity, and everything that implies.

It's part of the quote. I'm not sure if there are bugs with respect to lambdas, but historically, C++ implementations have been pretty buggy. Even with all the resources that go into C++ implementations, it took forever to get ones that correctly supported C++98.

Convenience is a very important factor.

I grew up in Southern California, and feel like that might be part of why the two long grey winters in sf each year affect me worse than my friends.

I found that a good antidote to the second winter was making snowboarding a more serious hobby. It had been something I'd done a few times when I was younger, but it was too far away to do regularly.

Here in the bay area though, a weekend of sun, beer, adventure, exercise, and hottubbing are only 3 hours away. And it turns the winter into something to look forward to.

It's hard to actually know which action I take has the most effect. Vitamin D, bright lights, exercise all play a role. I've found it's important to try everything and hope for the best.

If I were to pick just one thing to do though, it would be the bright lights in the morning. I know for sure that those work. Not only for myself, but for many other people who have given it a try.

This is the reason why my productivity has gone down since going from single to having a family. When I was single, I would just cut out early on the days I wasn't in the zone, and get some errands or housework done.

When I was in the zone, I would stay at work until right before I would go to bed.

This way I would spend nearly all of my "in the zone" time doing work.

Now that I have kids and such, I leave at 6 every day regardless of my productivity level, so even though I spend only slightly less time at work, my net productivity is way lower.

private != profit.
Talking out of my ass here, but I'd assume the problem is one of resources. While unemployment may be high, demand for "smart" people (which you'd need to work on anti-human threats) is way to high. Combine that with technological feasibility, and the resources could probably have been spent elsewhere better. Today though, the technology is probably "common" (relatively speaking) enough to spend some resources on the problem.
I concur. I've seen that work well especially for community oriented titles (LWN does this, I seem to recall, as does the Practicing Ruby journal).
Remotely controlled planes is done all the time. I don't see how that's got a significantly greater chance of failure or discovery. It also potentially reduces the number of people needing to be involved.
"The whole problem is that inflation is theft"

That is like saying that if you run a lemonade stand and someone else opens a lemonade stand next to you, they stole from you. A reduction in the value of what you own is not theft by any stretch of the word.

"It's historically been very popular as a means of taxing the public without them realizing that's what you're doing."

Ah, but inflation is not truly a tax, because it is driven by market forces and not by the law. Actual taxes reduce the rate of inflation by increasing demand for money.

One thing I still miss from this and most other Lisp tutorials is good practical examples of problems you would solve with macros. Its one of the biggest differences between Lisp and other languages but I have no idea where I should use macros and where I should simply use functions instead.

For example, in this tutorial he shows a stopwatch macro but this is precisely the sort of stuff that is easy to do with lambdas:

(define stopwatch (body)
(start-timer)
(body)
(end-timer))

(stopwatch (lambda () (my_code 42)))

Very Cool. Although, I was wondering if there is any framework/library available that lets you organize such JSON data into more of a visual interface. Something as simple as getting the keys and values and inserting into an organized table with beautiful CSS3. As I was thinking of making such library which does this. I have seen parsing libraries that help parse JSON and display it in a structured manner but, haven't come across something that visualizes it in a more beautiful manner.
Am I the only one that thought that [2] from above was a clever reference to being "name.com" until I realised that name sell .io domains? So much for me being all clever haha.
Domain registration is a commodity service, where all but one company selling this commodity does so without any strange contract terms. Even if the chance that Gandi acts on their contractual rights is slim, there's no reason to give them that right in the first place. A company's brand, good will and years of backlinks are tied to their domain -- it's not something to put at risk lightly.

I deleted the copy of my comment, not a moderator, as it didn't need to be said twice. This does not "help me" in any way; I'm not affiliated with any registrar. The reasons one would point out an unusual contract term are pretty obvious -- most people don't read them, and this one's quite material to the decision of who to register a domain with.

The quality of his pictures is great for what it is and it's a tiny fraction of the cost of a SLR attachment or other type of digital camera.

Check your D3 levels

About 5 years ago, my doctor randomly tested me for Vitamin D levels. My level was about 20 ng/ml where you should be at least 30 ng/ml and likely closer to 40 ng/ml.

My doctor recommended that I start taking 1,000 I.U. of Vitamin D3 per day which I did. For fun I looked up the problems that can be caused by having insufficient Vitamin D:

http://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/vitamin-d-deficiency

Heart disease, cognitive impairment, asthma, cancer, etc. Yeah - cancer. In addition, a Vitamin D deficiency can actually cause back pain. That was my only major symptom. It's been 5 years and I haven't had a back pain episode since I started taking Vitamin D. Anecdotal, of course. But my levels are where they should be now and I just take one tiny Vitamin D3 pill per day.
