If you have a good policy. The money doesn't run out. Because it isn't spending money but investing it.
Say this project cost $10,000,000 a year, and it allows say 10,000 families to use these services that allows them to get jobs, or make an additional $10,000 a year additional funding. Then their taxes would go back to pay for the project, these people otherwise wouldn't be making the additional money, their income tax wouldn't be paying for such a service, as well they will need additional services such as food stamps and Medicare.
Policy that help people gain wealth, in general pay for themselves, even if not everyone can benefit from it, but a small portion can actually pay for such services. Thus not run out of money.
Also being if we can live longer, that means we wouldn't be in as much of a rush to reproduce. There is a 20 year 20-40 where it is the most healthiest time to reproduce (for females) past that age there are complications. So there is pressure to get hooked up by those ages. If we can live biologically younger for longer. There isn't as much of a rush. So we can wait until we are in a stable life style, before having children, as well being that is less risky that the child would die, the urge to have multiple would be less.
Also eternal youth, isn't eternal life. We are exposed by random stuff that can kill us daily. Young people still get Cancer, they still get into accidents, They get ill. The longer you live, the higher chance that something will end up killing you.
Also if there is too much strain on resources, we will just end up fighting and killing each other off.
I don't think the SAT is really that useful of a test. However colleges seem to use them for entrance criteria, as a number is easier to evaluate than judging a person on the whole. But if they are willing to cheat on the SAT test to get in, I don't think colleges really want people of such questionable moral caliber to enter the school.
My experience with Chinese students, this isn't too surprising, they are far more willing to cheat, than take the consequences of getting a low grade. That is why when they show statistics showing where China is succeeding, I really question it, because their culture seems to want to win, with the actual objectives of the grading as not important. A Sr.Year computer science major the student was the curve breaker on the tests. Went to me asking how in C++ can he use decimal numbers (the answer was using the float data type, which we learned about on day 3 in the freshman class, and had used such a data type all threw the program. Made me realize, this student was either cheating technically (threw nefarious methods), or cheating himself (Only test prep, once the test is done, it brand dumps out of the system). Because in anything practical he was useless.
If you are competing to be #1 there are two strategies. Make sure you perform better than the rest. Make sure the rest performs worse than you do.
If your goal is to be #1, the easier strategy will be the one taken.
If say the US is more focus on just advancing then being #1 then our efforts will be to build up other countries, and at the same time we will grow much further.
Health care system give too much power to the Doctors, and they get their hands into everything. They figure because they went to medical school they seem to be an expert on all thing. But because they are in such a position of power other non-clinical departments need to kiss up to them. We can get a 5 minute pitch to say why we may think it may be a bad idea (usually out of the blue as it becomes a surprise change) but if it technically can be done it will end up having to be implemented. And they want it now with no patients for testing, and way too cheap to setup a good testing environment. Then we have issues because we were forced to implement a bad design, then it is a case those IT guys screwed up again! Even the fact it mostly worked is a near miracle that it even works.
We can have better and safer health care IT if the doctors shut up and take what we make for them. They can state there problems on the high level, but they will nitpick into a crap system.
Disrupt no, change yes and it always will. Globalization will also change it. When they started to make drums they found a way to make music louder so it can be heard hundreds of meters away. So music changed. Additional instruments created new sound so the singer wasn't always needed. Then we have forms where the singer emulates the sound of the instrument. We get to the point were instruments can be fine tuned then music can be played as written allowing wider distribution of music.
Streaming will change music, being that the artist are not bound by media lengths. They can have a short 30 second song or a 3 hour long song.
Also the fact that music is now listen more privately over headphones, increases the music diversity, you don't need to feel guilty that after some heavy metal music you can switch to music theater without people looking at you funny.
Government is rather good at infrastructure. Companies are not so good at it. Why do you think Cable Companies are so bad in terms of customer support. Because they need to manage this infrastructure. That means they will keep the more profitable zones in better condition, or zones where they have some competition with. But in other areas where it is a profit loss zone, or they know customers don't have an alternative, they will just do the bare minimum. Government infrastructure seems to value the last mile user a bit more. Making sure they get their coverage as well.
Not necessarily. Pay may be part of it. However there are other motivations. The degree of artistic control, Sometime a fancier title means you get more say on your ideas. Creative types are known to take positions for less pay where they have more control of their work. Inclusions at the C level meetings. Sure meeting are boring, and most of us really don't want to be there. But it is sometimes nicer to get the information before it becomes a surprise, and have the power to shoot down stupid ideas earlier. Sure Apple is a huge player. But Google may want Ives, or Samsung, or Sony. Perhaps some little known startup company will get him.
"Publish or Perish", Degrees that require new original ideas, Strict hierarchy structure... Academic institutions are culturally stuck in victorian times. So if you want to work up, get the choice projects and research, you need to publish. The more your publish, the higher the chances you will move up. Because there is so much published material, people don't read it much, so they found that they can get credit for half ass work. Your name becomes your brand, so when you try to get a grant your name+institution you will work for will get you the grant money. There isn't any reason why Say State University of New York Buffalo can't get a grant to study seismology, but chances are it will go to University of California Berkeley not because they will do a better job, but because of the name. Finally institutions haven't learned how to deal with today's political climate with the attempt for breaking news. Every Hypothesis is sold to the public as a new Theory... Then if that Hypothesis is shown false (as it is common in science) then the media who may have a political slant will go and say see Science is Wrong again, just like our political stance has predicted!
Science for the most part is quite work, collaborating with like minded people, with checks and balances to try to filter out strong egos. But it has gone commercial so these checks and balances are weaken as strong egos will win out.
Now now, environmentalists only live where there is a temperate climate, thus have no need to consider the finer details of real world application. Those who have real world needs are just wrong or corrupt.
Scale: charging your phone with 5 volts compared to a car at 120/220 volts. Safety: that much current floating around means if a child wanders in the wrong area they are fried Efficiency: If it is half efficient to charge our phones. No big deal its conscience makes up for the cost. But to power a car you will feel the extra cost. Besides you get a electric car because it is better for the environment and if we need to create extra coal plants to power these cars its carbon footprint gets bigger. Reliability: a car goes threw a lot of stressed. Rain, snow, ice, wind, salt, bugs, animals nesting in it.
It isn't the same as making a wireless charger to charge a 2 ton cell phone.
There is a New York state law banning male daycare teachers from changing diapers. There is a strong preference in custody cases that the child will end up with the mother, even if she isn't nearly as fit to parent.
There is actually more of a written inequality against men then woman.
There are many cases where even republicans go on record stating man made climate change. It is basicly the Oil industry who is trying to keep the doubt about it. So the politicians Democrat or republican (mostly republican) who come from the Energy Producing states. Will play onto the spew to keep themselves elected.
Politics are not Pro- or Anti-Science. It is weather the science is political useful for them or not. Otherwise they will be happy putting their head in the sand.
DRM codecs are a feature, it allows you to access more sites. Some people are out to make software and not always a political statement. However adding custom adds doesn't seem to help the end user out in any way.
Wasn't the fact that Opera when it released a free version, use to have a spot for Opera based adds. Which was one reason why it never really got any serious interests.
I find a better IDE for different and I was like, how about that, this makes it easier for me to write code for the language.
If back in the day where you had GWBasic Ok LIST 10 PRINT "HELLO" 20 GOTO 10 Ok 15 PRINT "WORLD" Ok LIST 10 PRINT "HELLO" 15 PRINT "WORLD" 20 GOTO 10 Ok 15 PRINT "WORLD!" LIST 10 PRINT "HELLO" 15 PRINT "WORLD!" 20 GOTO 10 Ok RUN HELLO WORLD! HELLO WORLD! HELLO WORLD! HELLO WORLD!
If we had that type of IDE today the program will fail miserably. However you take the same language and give it a new IDE then you could in theory make an Enterprise class application in GWBASIC.
Well Oracle killing off Java was one of the biggest fear after it acquired Sun Microsystems. MySql was open sourced so it could fork like it had. VirtualBox we more or less kinda allowed it to die. Star err Open err LibreOffice had forked so many times that people probably forgot the Sun Acquired it as StarWriter. The Sun Servers Sparc based were declining in popularity.
But Java was the important thing we couldn't let die. And it isn't open source so the community couldn't steal it away from oracle.
It is, just as long what you are doing is similar to what everyone else is doing. Sometimes, you may need to break the mold. But that is actually very rare. And you need decades of experience to really know when you really should break the mold.
It is about politics. In the public sector it isn't about your wins, but how bad your losses are. If you report a problem, it gets escalated all the way to the top, where you get your elected officials who got there because they talk. Where then it goes back down to find the person to fire because of the issue. The general public will not be happy until they fire someone for the issue. Granted the person who made the mistake are probably the one who will not cause it again. But you fire them, shame them, make sure they will not work in that field ever again.
So yes if you see a problem you are better off to claim ignorance, then have fingers pointed at you.

My view is they should split up the infrastructure and the content providers.
Perhaps the municipal governments having control of the infrastructure, and we can have a choice of ISPs and other content providers.
