    "If there were no God, there would be no atheists

    An interesting assertion, but by extension anything one wants to not believe in must actually exist; in particular: "If a universe without God didn't exist then theists wouldn't have something to not believe in".

    So I stuck a thermometer inside an apple

    May I ask what prompted you to stick a themometer in an apple? Also you might want to try some vegetables too (I have always imagined a turnip would be relatively warm).

    If you were to learn / teach someone a programming language?

    I doubt you're stupid. The"OCaml geek" on the other hand I am not so sure about.

    If you were to learn / teach someone a programming language?

    I think it's a question of ensuring you use the right tool for the job. There are a lot of benefits to the OO approach, and a lot of benefits to the FP approach too (hence my personal like of Scala which combines the two). That said though branding people as "stupid" because they do not choose...

    Contractors who suck

    I empathise, but it's fair to say that a little patience for idiots can only help you career. JMHO of course.

    POLL: Has the ET neighborhood gone to hell?

    Yes. But there are probably worse places to be (in particular I am thinking of the unutterable dullness of purgatory). Hell is quite warm too.

    The Big Inflation Scare - Oooooh, How Scary; Prove Him Wrong

    I've often wondered what deflation meant. Just one question though: what is a "wage"?

    How about this Level 1 trading strategy?

    Level 1? You are too modest! The fact that you've stated this strategy so clearly and concisely in no way detracts from its inherent brilliance. You sir are a genius, and of the first order.

    Tent Spotting

    When I saw the title of the thread I thought you meant tents as in those used by soap dodgers camping overnight during the current City protests!

    Immortality

    What makes you think the mutants will have died out in 5000 years? They may have just grown stronger and mutated even more. Or, you may regain consciousness only to find yourself alone on an empty planet.

    C'mon you Nation of Cowards

    I know what you mean, I'm forever finding bits (crumbs, hairs etc) in my hood. But, and this might help you, if you are careful to shake the hood before pulling it over your head you should be OK. Of course the only problem with this approach is if the rain comes on very quickly and you need...

    If by "place" you mean drop from a great height, then yes.

    Being happy with life....

    I do not think there is any meaning to life. Unfortunately. But that's not to say you shouldn't enjoy yourself.
