You should avoid dangling prepositions if you are speaking in Latin. Then again if you are speaking Latin, ALL dangling prepositions will intuitively sound so wrong that you'll never make them.

If you are speaking English, they are perfectly fine. Some people a long time ago decided Latin was the bee's knees and English grammar ought to mimic Latin grammar. This is nonsense.

But you can keep up the nonsense as a way to show off your education (superior social rank).

1. Manufacturing parts and then selling them throughout the life of the aircraft model has a high margin of profit. Assembling an aircraft form parts has the lowest margin of profit.

2. Outsourcing requires more coordination form HQ, not less.

It seems like those two were pretty big and important. Especially #1, what kind of an executive does not understand the value chain of the business he's in?

This is why I don't think CEO are stupid, but I do think they act economically rationally (perhaps not ethically) by increasing their compensation by pumping up the stock price in the short term.

In this case the CEO raised stock prices in the short term by appearing to create cost savings. His compensation goes up, he leaves the company, cost savings turn out to be costs, but the old CEO has already been paid and is gone, this is the new guy's problem.

Never credit to malice what can be explained by incompetence.

I personally believe that pretty much all democratic governments are slipping towards fascism, not because any one or any group has that as a far vision, but because all have short term goals which create the emergent long term effect of a slow slide towards fascism.

Ever bigger law enforcement in the name of "Save the Children" is a prime example. I really do think the motivation here is primarily to help, not drive America towards fascism. The secondary effect is just not something the prime movers want to bother their minds with.

And medical care is not by any means new. Cesarean section is named after Cesar, and it was a well established medical practice before he was born.

He sleeps on a mattress.

Well golly, call the patent office, tell them to shut down and go home, we can't possibly improve on this.

Honestly, where are all of you present defender coming from? Is the future too awesome for you? Sour grapes over the fact that you too get sick, age and can die?

Dying, aging, being sick, drinking, eating and breathing pollution are not trivial problems. We ought to demand solutions for them.

I no way see this as men or cs specific. It is to me very specific to any extreme performance. Let me rephrase it:

The rub for new entrants in X is that the dominant X culture does not venerate balance or multiple interests. Instead, the singular and obsessive interest in X that is common among X practitioners is assumed to be the road to success in computing.

Extreme tennis players, think kids drilled from a young age to be champions, read Andre Agasi's bio, have exactly the same attitude.

As do piano prodigy's. Any group performing at an extreme has this, because it is TRUE! To be in the top 0.1% you have to devote your life to it, you won't have balance!

Do medical students, those headed towards surgery have balance in their lives? Incidentally, surgery is another one of those male dominated professions.

So please, stop making this about either men or cs, it is not.

I have to disagree. You would win if your position was not absurd. But if you, like Scientology, or for that matter politics and most religion are yourself preaching something quite absurd, then ignoring them is not an effective defense.

If you are a naked king, and there's a crowd that keeps shouting LOL, you gots no clothes on, they are winning.

Silly and most prevalent in America. Curiously also in America we have Fox news which clearly does not abide by objectivity even as it advertises itself with it.

My point is simply that pure objectivity is an impossibility.

Attempting to reach pure objectivity can lead you down a wrong path, just look at how American journalists contort themselves in order to be nautral, facts and reality be damned.

In Europe it is much more prevalent that everyone has a bias, know what it is and keep it in mind as you read, watch, or listen to them.

I'm hoping that Al Jazeera, which is accused of having copied the style of fox news if not the substance, does not follow American journalism down the path of a bias free utopia.

I hope Egyptian journalists who show any kind of emotion at this news, are only jokingly reprimanded. As long as it doesn't turn into a soap opera, bias ought to be expected of mere humans, even if they are journalists.
