He literally said "Most women in the Bay Area are ... generally full of shit". How can you work with someone that thinks that, specially if you are a woman, say, in the Bay Area? And how can he do the job if people can't effectively work with him?

Just to be clear this is specifically about publicly (i.e. by the government) funded Catholic schools in Ontario.

Re:What's brewing? A K-Cup of Campbell's soup

At my office they have fruity tea options and I can tell you that the flavour gets into the coffee if someone previously brewed such teas. I don't want to imagine what a coffee brewed after one of this soups would taste like.

I didn't mean Mexican cartels in the US, just cartels in the US in general. I don't buy that it just doesn't show up in the news, if people appeared decapitated or hanging from overpasses in the US I think you would see it mentioned in the news. The corruption and incompetence of Mexican police makes the problem more obvious since the government has to put the army and federal police on the streets to keep some control.
I think maybe in the US the cartels have reached some equilibrium that allows them to operate without so much violence and be discrete enough that they don't get bothered so much by the police.

What I don't get is how come there are no such violence problems with drug cartels in the United States where surely they must be as large if not larger since the drugs get somehow distributed there (I'm assuming there's where most drugs handled by Mexican cartels end up).

The difference is that these apps were downloaded thousands of times before being removed. Getting thousands of people to go to your malicious website is probably much harder.
Re:All the external private APIs referenced by iBooks.app version 1.2.1

One of the benefits of this could be allowing them to drive-test private APIs in order to eventually make (or not, or alternative ones) them public eventually.

I got mine a week ago by calling the Apple Store at Eaton's Centre in Toronto on a Thursday evening; they told me they would have stock the next day. I got there at 6:50 am and was out of the store with a phone at 9:50 after a somewhat problematic activation with Fido.

Re:World's top 100 universities listed

I agree with you if you use lists such as this one to pick the University in which you go to study or work. But I would think that as a Country, or a State they might serve as a (very) high-level indicator of how you are doing in education.
Re:My Objection to Array#sum
on Thursday April 09, 2009 @02:21PM (#554860)
The difference between [1, "two"].sum and 1 + "two" is that in the second case you are passing "two" to 1's :+ method, that's an argument error, it doesn't depend on 1's state. In the first case you are not giving any argument to the method, so you shouldn't get an error. From the point of view of the array's user the array is now in an invalid state and that's not something the array should have allowed to happen.

It's probably a good idea to link to the permalink: http://startuplessonslearned.blogspot.com/2009/03/dont-launc... of the article instead of the main page of the blog.
