for me, D2 is the better game in that it is fun and addictive to play, while D1 is much more atmospheric.

Unless I'm misunderstanding your point, I think it still works out equitably regardless of the existence of a VAT system.

I'd be curious about Oil and Gas. I'm familiar with the other fields, but that one seems to require even less training for around the same amount of money. Or if you get into petroleum engineering - I remember in college that was

As an aside, what happened to makr.io? The URL seems to go to something completely different.

Red Hat, by the way, deliberately obscured their kernel code in order to stop Oracle from simply providing support for Red Hat code. Probably the correct business move, but also probably against the spirit of FOSS. http://www.h-o

Two thing come to mind as a starting point: Negotiation and focusing on building Hong Kong's economy. Negotiation: The truth is, HK politics is very much like American politics. It consists of people blocking any progress on anything b

In my opinion, that's a very good question and one that demonstrators rarely think about. Frankly, and until somebody convinces me otherwise, I think that Occupy Central was and is a strategic failure if the end goal is gain a better f

I was very surprised when I found this out. It makes sense though - just like in any negotiation, you don't start with what you're willing to settle for, you start with what you want. In general, there are always two sides to the

Could you elaborate on the level for programs like these? I am familiar with a kid who was writing proofs regarding tensors (this is how it was described to me, my own math skills are extremely minimal in comparison) in the 5th grade. His f

It's also worth mentioning that this behavior exists on OS X as well.

Gross cost is basically irrelevant when you are talking about pricing in a perfect competition. The point is that producers cannot set their price because if they set it any higher, somebody else will undercut them. I think the correct main

HoMM is not a dead franchise - 6 was released in 2012, though perhaps not with the same kind of cultural impact as the first 3 (or 4 depending on who you ask) games since the studio change.

To take two examples, Blackboard costs at least in the hundreds of thousands (maybe a few orders of magnitude more) while an individual license of matlab is 3000, so perhaps with a group purchase it's more like 1000 per student? School

Nobody said that side effects aren't useful, as Rich Hickey would be the first to remind you. Clojure has full support for side effects and mutable data structures if you need it for efficiency. The point is that in Clojure, there are

China is not Communist... maybe your question is can be restated as if China will adopt democratic system eventually? I personally believe the answer to that is that is has to, and yes it will probably be more stable compared to the collaps

If you make that comparison, I would say Singapore has been a much more successful economy. Hong Kong is stuck in it's role as a financial center, of which it's competitive advantage is getting eroded. Plus that 'competitive
