It seems none of these companies knows what people really wants.
1. Reasonable Rates. Data plan should be an extra $20 a month unlimited... Or at a rate where we can use our phones without worry about hitting the peak. Unless we are crazy and do a lot of big downloads, say 8 hours of streaming video a day.
2. Family plans that give us value. The more people the better the value. So for an extra phone $10 per month added.
After paying hundreds of dollars for a phone. A family of 4 shouldn't expect to pay more then $100 a month for phone service.
Wasn't the big reason why we didn't stop the 9/11 attackers was a lack of cross departmental sharing of data. Public or Private systems, it seems like they are going back to the old ways of doing things again.
For electric cars to work we need the following technology/infrastructure.
1. Range of 350-500 miles per charge. 2. Charge speeds under 15 minutes. 3. 2 and 3 must be attainable, on mid-sized trucks. 4. A grid that can handle the increased demand (or some other power infrastructure that will give us the electricity), we loose power when too many people turn on their AC's on a summer day. Think of what will happen at 6:00pm when people get home from work and plug in their cars. 5. Such new cars will need to be priced starting around $20,000 (in 2012 US Currency) 6. Electric cars should be able to give similar or better performance as current cars.
Right now the market advertises Electric cars as your second car/commuter car. That you use on a daily bases to go to and from work. And you need a "Real" Car for further driving. The problem is not everyone can really afford/choose to have a car designed just for small driving. Where they need a car that can take the large rides when needed.
We often think of using the school level of grading.
60 F (0.0) 60-69 D (1.0) 70-79 C (2.0) 80-89 B (3.0) 90-100 A (4.0).
Of course school grading has gotten corrupted to just mean. Less then C you don't go to college. C-B means you can go to a normal college, A you go to a well known college.
However it should be the following... F is a Failure where they should take the class over again. D They can advance to the next class... However they are at high risk of failing the next class, you should have the option to retake the class over again C They passed they should advance to the next class. B They Mastered the content in the class, and show a strong understanding in it. A The class was too easy for them they should be advanced to a harder system.
I have found classes I got a C in are the ones I learned the most in. the classes I got A's in I already knew most of the information and I learned very little.
The problem is a lack of agreement on what the median should be.
A normal distribution works when we know what the average value is (The peak of the distribution bubble) However we need a normal distribution on what the people think the normal is first to come up with the best median for the distribution of grades for a product.
They will take a public statement play it out of context, and they will think that guy is pure evil, or grossly out of touch. To run a government you need to work with your competition, and with groups who you are not a big fan of.
Right now the far Right, is far more rabid then the far left. If Romney wins the elections, and if we get a republican lead house or senate. The Right, will actually become more moderate, after they do their big push to get out one of their big things out. The Left will become crazy nuts, and bitch and complain about everything that the right does. However right now the Right is the Crazy ones, because they are trying to radicalize their core, to go out and win.
Slowly over time, being a technical person has became from a socially award activity to something more socially acceptable, and well recognized. We need stories like this to increase or "Anality" towards the general public, because we just can't go along being socially accepted.
But... How much work on the internet do we do outside normal HTTP/HTTPS protocols? Most of our email clients are now Web Based. Cloud Applications tend to communicate via Web Services, On your local intranet at work, most of the stuff is Web Based... So if I found someone who mixes Internet and World Wide Web I am not going to correct them, unless we are talking in a very technical level.
I had more issue back in the 1990's where people thought AOL was the internet. And the Only Way to get on it.
It is kinda funny, when MSNBC started it was considered a Right Leaning, new organization, then Fox News came out, making it seem much to moderate. So to survive, it went to more left leaning then the other stations. So in terms of Cable News you have these options... Fox News, News for Right Wing Nuts, Fare and balanced if you are right wing nut. CNN, News for those people who really don't care, in an attempt to be moderate it doesn't really go into any depth. MSNBC, New For Liberals, Hard hitting on the liberal agenda.
I am a political moderate myself and I don't care for any of these sites, I seem to switch to NPR, While it is left of center, and I am right of center, I found that NPR puts a little more depth in its coverage compared to the others, and doesn't really jump on the insanity.
He is going on the Assumption that the Rich People like to drive fast.
Rich people tend to buy Mercedes, BMW, Cadillac, Lexus, Audi... These cars can Go Fast, But they don't always speed in them. They often buy them for other reasons too, as these are Luxury Cars not sport cars.
I think a lot of Rich CEO types would love a automatic car where they can sit back talk on their phone and send emails and in general do work while in transit. If there is a reason why they are rushing, it is because this driving time, is time they are not working on making money.
Yes it did. I was supposed to be sarcastic. But I guess with a lot of the Anti-Capitalist Everything point of view that is popular, I guess you would think I was being serious.
The point is if you are going to get free stuff from the Apple store... Apple is going to cramp down fast and hard, as you are directly taking money away from them.
Also I wouldn't publish or use his findings. Because if you are caught you are in trouble. There is getting pirated material from an other site (The Site owner takes some (usually the bulk) responsibility for the failure) is one thing. Actually trying to get the data straight from Apple Store, is stealing. If caught you are going to be responsible. Being that this is costing Apple Money, you will bet if they are nice they will charge you for the Apps you downloaded, if not they will fine you a much higher amount for stealing from them. If they are really going to be bastards about it they just may send the police to knock on your door. Just pay the freaking couple of bucks for the app. It isn't worth the risk of getting caught.
If someone could read it. They will just think, this is just a warning from a primitive superstitious civilization, just trying to keep away grave diggers. Our test show that this was made from the period of 1000-2500
So you are saying the only way to make humans to involve is to create a super bacteria, that will wipe out 75% of the population, because the genes have been dormant for so long that we have no resistance to the new mutations.
Or perhaps you work for Gorilla Grog and you just want to devolve the human race to Gorilla's.
Ether way, you are walking into super villinary territory.
No it is because my Pinky finger isn't being utilized as much as my other Fingers, while typing. Besides, I like to capitalize Nouns, it seems more German to me.
We come from the government trust us... We are the best of the best...
Having done work with the Government, it puts my mind to ease about all the conspiracy theories out there. These people think they are Top Minds, while they are the biggest idiots out there. I doubt they would be able to handle any of those Conspiracies out there.
"You can find any number of PhDs commenting regularly" 0 is a number right?
Kidding aside, I actually like it if I post something, and someone disagrees with me, or proves what I though was a fact wrong, and gives me references to check out. There has been a few times I needed to consed my opinion, just because my facts were proven to be wrong.

Governor Cuomo is a Registered Democrat.
But if you are truly and expert, you will do incomprehensible babble from time to time, we don't need stories to try to make us go further.

Yea, the PR department is really good at Making statements that Relate to the Public.
However my organization just Upgraded to IE 8.
There isn't any plan to be going to 9 in the near future as there are too apps that have issues with following Open Standards.
