What a crass comparison. "He said that his beliefs would not change the way he managed the company or how employees were treated at Mozilla. “I’m supporting all of the same benefits we’ve always …

Roaming charges: I predict the telecomms will be increasing their general charges to make good losses on roaming. "Infrastructure and spectrum are expensive, and these costs need to be recouped s…

Any chance of you expressing yourself without the seemingly obligatory 'fuck'?

You sound like Basil Fawlty comparing Fascist Germany to his hotel guests. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFMpySg_UrM and your comment invites the same response. There are plenty of …

No article stifles innovation unless some idiot reads it as scripture! Meanwhile what do you know about the average Daily Mail reader? Presumably you've researched the around 70 million readers (…

There are plenty of gays who don't want and don't approve of gay marriage on theological grounds. One example: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/10729717&#x…

Indeed! To expand a little, can I also download a text from Gutenberg public domain classics, convert to pdf (via LibreOffice for instance) and read on this machine along, as you say, with all the pub…

This is an interesting question. If you look at the literature the word 'evidence' really means 'observations purported to lead one to the conclusion that ....'. Definitely confusi…

Intolerant! As someone put it, toleration is not toleration unless you put up with that with which you will not put.

Poorly-worded heading! Net gain of one person every 16 seconds while the World Population counter ticks merrily away at around two or three per second!

Overkill to let him off. 'psychopathic' almost implies internally generated impulses beyond conscious control. I suspect 'asshole' sums it up nicely.

"....willingly tend towards a common political entity". Willingly ? European Constitution (2005) France - 54.9% against (29 May 2005) Netherlands - 61.5% against (1 June 2005). No one else…

What is a right? How are rights established? From BE's point of view, was a right a right, prior to being argued and established in law?

Not inherently wrong? Laws are there to protect established businesses? I thought they were there to protect consumers and indirectly, of course they protect properly run businesses. What's …

'Why should we let people whose only qualification is money try to decide what's important?'. Let! Gosh, lovely implications. What constraints do you have in mind to fetter the lawful…

Possibly most readers know this but if you want to check the validity of this and all the other predictions, the parameter to look for is climate sensitivity. Notoriously difficult to estimate, key to…

'I cannot report electronically to the authorities!' - I am amazed. In the UK, individuals and virtually all companies and organisations must file their Company Tax Returns online.

This is the kind pointless opining we get from too many abysmal contributors to the Guardian comment columns.

i.e., it could be explained better (or for some, 'explained period')

What is the problem? Someone has to be paid for the time they spend on the installation. Bearing in mind it takes a minute or so max. for this job, hourly rates (or profits) at Dell must be mouth-wat…

Excellent point though it is worth nothing that glyphosate does indeed chelate metals whereas it's difficult to see US electricity consumption having quite that effect in vivo or even in vitro.

No mention of what extras we get in meat courtesy of the feedstock for the animals. "Most U. S. beef cattle are implanted with synthetic hormones in feedlots prior to slaughter. On January 1, 1…

"its own ..."

What about the extensive British investment interests in Russia? They have little to do with an exile elite. Reading around, a number of sources point out that sanctions in general are highly unlikely…

monkey's?

Don't bother to back up you cliched attack on a popular tabloid newspaper. Much more fun to recycle the old epithets. What amuses me is that way hypercritical folk evidently read the Daily Mail (…

And none of these poorly put together computers even have a glimmering of how to simulate themselves. Meanwhile the presumably even less poorly put together computers perform amazing feats in ocean ai…

"has its disadvantages as well". Its!

So how many Americans will be described as X American where X is any other country? How about European American? If not, why not?
