Liberals are genetically prone to be douche bags! :D

Just kidding, but the I thought this title was funny ;)

To quote the article:


"Gambling, extreme extroversion, sexual promiscuity and other adventurous human traits have also been blamed on DRD4 expression."

Apparently in 10 years, most of us are screwed!

 

"David H. Autor, an economics professor at theMassachusetts Institute of Technology, says the United States economy is being “hollowed out.” New jobs, he says, are coming at the bottom of the economic pyramid, jobs in the middle are being lost to automation and outsourcing, and now job growth at the top is slowing because of automation.

“There is no reason to think that technology creates unemployment,” Professor Autor said. “Over the long run we find things for people to do. The harder question is, does changing technology always lead to better jobs? The answer is no.”"

Google Chrome & ever-hanging Google image search? Close your stumbleupon plugin.

If you are among those who use Google's Chrome as your primary brwoser, but also happen to have stumbleUpon plugin installed (StumbleUpon is a nice way to keep track of all the sites you "like" or "dislike", and is one of the fastest growing social media tool), you might be coming across an issue where your google image search results, when clicked on, just keep hanging and don't display correctly. If so, the solution is simple:

Close out (don't need to disable) the stumbleUpon plugin on the current tab and access the image again :)

Hope this helps, I know it was very frustrating for me until I 'stumbled upon' the fix! :D

If you can get me a job at an office like The Office, I'll hand you my pay check, every one of them, for life.
