The notion that it's possible to have a portion of humanity protect us from the rest is statist utopianism.

What the detective did was, obviously, depraved and indefensible under any circumstances by anyone. What the hell is "statist utopianism?" From where I sit, it's a bit of gobbledy-gook rhetoric lifted from a poli-sci textbook. The notion it's possible to have a portion of humanity protect us from the rest is part of an honorable and old-fashioned idea called the social contract, which...

An ipad 2 only has a half gig of ram? I didn't realize how primitive the table devices are.
How does one jibe claims about the subjective nature of reality with claims such as "there's no way that the reactors in Japan could explode" or the determination of guilt in a court?

Second, that gear, why do you put it where you do? You have a physical gear covered with adhesive that you throw at the screen while blindfolded after spinning around a few times and wherever it sticks is where the gear goes in your app, isn't that right?

Actually, we know why the gears and stuff started appearing in odd places - you're stealing interface designs and software from one culture and using them in a different culture, figuring you're less likely to have your misuse noticed that way, right? Some UI designer in the right to left world is probably putting major stuff on the left, copying from normal convention in my part of the world, driving my far off counterpart mad, just like me.

Go ahead, admit it; you've thought about starting a company with an abnormally capitalized name, like matchBook, haven't you? You bastard!
