I'm in the last year of my Masters degree looking at stochastic models of epidemics (a probalistic model using statistical calibration). I assure you that 2% is inconsequential.

I apologise - replace flirting with little clothes. I feel you are trying to miss the forest for the trees. I do not wish to put heavy emphasis on appearance. I want to put emphasis on the intention...
Booth babes are payed to be scantily dressed. They do it for my benefit. Cosplayer's dress scantily because they want to. It is they who reap the benefit.
A clear example of why I find this an...
But three years is still not long enough. A 2% shift in the gender split would be statistically insignificant and would be written off as yearly fluctuations. No one expects the world to change...
Sure it will. The whole industry has to shift. The ban at PAX is a small step that forms part of a larger shift. Give the baby time.
That's not really the issue. The Cosplayers do what they do for their own benefit. Booth babes do what they do for my (supposed) benefit. I would like the organisers of such an event that I have no...
I feel there is another way to view this issue, putting the important issue of women's representation aside for the moment. If someone organised for a stripper to come to any event I had anything to...
But really, you are actually being an arsehole and I hope that between all your sassy retorts you find the heart to reign it in a little.
Don't be an arsehole Nalano.
You can do as you wish, but historical evidence would suggest that RPS only hire when they need to.
You are being seriously patronising. I had no idea from your initial story - this `See Spot Run' version cleared things up for me.
Dear lord. Dear lord.
I am glad it is trivial for you. Stop wasting your time posting on trivial things and go about your life. Farewell!
I think it is clear that some people find this to be a larger issue than you do. Could you please stop trivialising it? We are telling you that we have a serious issue with it. There is nothing to...
I am over it. I am not angry. I am just sick of it. Now I am politely asking you to stop defending the inappropriate actions of others.
Please?
We don't hang blacks from street signs anymore. People change when they learn that their behavior is inappropriate. Please, stop shrugging your shoulders and declaring that old dogs can't learn new...
@Hypernetic.
I don't understand why this grow a thicker skin argument is kicked around. Women clearly have thick skins, since they suffer greater discrimination than men on a regular basis. This...
I think the real issue here is that the forums are full of the usual grumpy internet people. Sensible people tend to read the articles and move on. It is certainly my most visited website, ever since...
Interestingly this is exactly what I like about it. There is no clear direction and the difficulty level doesn't increase, instead it changes depending on your character and play style. When I start...
It seems like Western society is yet to come to full terms with rape: what it is and how to deal with it. There are still current issues, like victim blaming and "they didn't say no", which sit...
Max Payne is a great FPS. Pity about the guy that runs around in front of you all the time, mimicking your movements.
FOV doesn't make me ill, but can cause me serious annoyance. It's like walking through the world with a set of horse blinkers on. How am I going to appreciate the scenery when I can only view small...
I bought a cheap PS3 this weekend and my first question is: where do I find credible and useful news and reviews for the Playstation?
I tried RockPlayStation and RockPlaystationShotgun, but was...
How does TA:Kingdoms hold up? I've never bothered with TA since Supreme Commander is generally viewed as an updated version. Does Kingdoms offer something else?
I think you're all being to logical about this. Alan Moore created Watchmen. It is his piece of art. He felt it perfect and complete.
Now there will be other people tinkering with his design. I...
