I wonder who gets the water rights. Given that like 10% of California's water goes to open-air agriculture of almonds in red areas, and there is a drought, it seems like a fun fight
And all programs that are already funded as part of the federal government are also not being suspended. This is allocating more money. But, e.g. the Smithsonian is staying open through the weekend because it had two more days of funding allocated a while ago.
That's an oversimplification. They have to live up to their charter/stated aims. Pre-1970s, it was common for the board to consider effect on the towns they live in, etc. Heck, there's no reason that we as society should allow "just make profit" as a valid mission statement.
I'm not sure why you think that mil/gov contracts can be outsourced outside the country. Normally, there is a restriction that the work be done in country. Which is fine, because they'll pay the extra to have the work done in country.

A 14-year-old who stays off social media, but is looking forward to a Porche on his 15th birthday (from the same uncle who tells him to stay off social media) is not going to be a pariah. Let's be reasonable. The same rules that apply to your kids do not apply to kids who can call Uncle Tim for an internship at Apple for their girlfriend, etc.
Einstein had the brilliance and audacity to reject common sense models of the universe and ask what would it be like if the speed of light really is constant
A constant speed of light was proven over a decade before Einstein published. What he did was figure out how to reconcile that with other physics equations by dilating time and space to maintain the consistent equations.
Some of the cities/states are offering transferable/refundable tax credits. That's a fancy way of paying cash. And those property taxes would have been gathered otherwise. The land would be worth less than when Amazon had a headquarters on it, but it would be taxed.
Plus, some of these cities are promising serious cash outlays on infrastructure... Amazon specific infrastructure.
Why would the carriers want that? They can extort the big players with throttling, and then let the little guys go and claim how fair you are. The little guys don't have any money to extort...
Except because of transaction times, overhead, time until cashing in the coins, and volatility, it's impossible to accurately pay a value of X USD/X GBP/X Euro in bitcoin. Even Steam, a service that sells virtual goods and could therefore just take "tried to pay X" as good enough, no longer accepts bitcoin.
Considering 1/2 to 2/3 of food produced in the US winds up in landfills, let's not sweat the "lock of food" issue. We have tons of food. It's distribution that's an issue.
That's because the finished loading your entire 60kb page before it responded to the first paint command, maybe 100ms. A modern page loads a single pixel and a script that loads the rest of the page. Sure, it takes like 3 times as long to get the page, requires people to load 3rd party javascript (or any JS), lets Google track you (although that's part of the plus for them.)
It's also, obviously, letting them pimp AMP and punishing the people who decline to use it.
The FCC has the regulatory authority it needs to act here, so I don't see this lawsuit working.
Changes to regulations have to (a) follow a process and (b) be supported by new sufficient evidence. This is done to prevent administrations from randomly changing regulations screwing with society. The lawsuits claim that both the process and the evidence were insufficient.
There is a process to change rules, and required justification. This was omitted. Note how it would really fuck up factory production if EPA rules changed randomly every 4 years.
And, if you recall, a few years ago, in between when Verizon got the courts to block Title 1 (in late 2014) and NN (in 2015), ISPs jumped straight into some pretty gnarly shit.
It exists. However, for casual sex there is (a) a risk of STDs and (b) a distrust among women that a man has actually taken it. For longer term relationships you might look into it.

Sounds like it's harder for you to buy headphones. Why, you cannot even tell that Monster cables are better just by listening to them.
USB-C has three pins that are supposed to mimic 3.5mm stereo's electric signal, hence the unpowered adapters. Still seems stupid to me.

Well, it's not secret. They post videos of their new robots (I'm guessing once the patents are issued).
But that's not relevant to this particular topic. This Amazon facility is for the engineers, not the supply chain workers.

I don't understand why anyone would want their city to win this. Your taxes will go up to bring in Amazon, and that gets you... what?
The way the EU has structured things, with incentives for relocation being illegal, seems far superior.
It's using Netflix's speedtest service, not video serving.
This doesn't test streaming video speed. It uses the speedtests that each video site offers.
Because we believe in lazzie-faire capitalism, and will not let actual real-world examples change our mind!

Nor do I want to be coerced into carrying a cell phone everywhere to access email; a service I should be able to use from a random terminal.
An untrained person isn't pure chance. Pure chance is rolling a die. Untrained person is common sense.

Or they could be isolated and unpatched. An airgap is the best security, always.
