It's simple to find IT personnel if you set wages properly. The only ones having a hard time attracting talent are those with 1990's-level pay. That's what a booming economy is supposed to do.
Another amazing thing about the US Constitution that shows the brilliance of the Founders is that it contains within it is the very means by which it can be amended. If there is so much support for a new method for electing the President then you should get right on that. I suspect you won't though.
I understand that very well, as did the Founders of the country. That's the wisdom of the Electoral College. Without it a handful of high-density population centers would run roughshod over the other 90% of the country. A presidential candidate would only have to campaign in 3 states at the expense of the other 47 if the election were to be decided by popular vote.
How can she not win this time if she would've won last time without The Russians! meddling? If not for Putin she'd be running for re-election in 2020. Right?
I'm not sure why this is being modded as funny. She has to be the nominee again because of what The Russians! did to her. To deny her the 2020 nomination would refute the entire notion that the 2016 election was interfered with. Only one of Putin's trolls could be against this.
Now that we know Putin stole the election from Hillary Clinton it goes without saying that she must be given the Democratic nomination again in 2020. All potential challengers need to step aside. If it weren't for the Russian meddling she would've clearly won so she has to run again.
What's the easiest way to block the auto pop-out of videos when you scroll down? Whoever came up with that needs to be drug out back...
"Hey, I want this annoying video at the top of the page to follow me when I scroll past it and block the text I came here to read." - said no one ever.
We're far from the tipping point. The institutional operators have different classes of hardware. They shut down the inefficient ones, but have plenty of newer ones to handle the network until the next difficulty adjustment. The price would have to fall far and fast (even for BTC) for a mining difficulty network collapse to take hold.
Wait, so "institutional operators" basically control the space now? What happened to that decentralization thing that was supposed to be the entire purpose of bitcoin?

"You think they can steal dollars and not change votes? Even when basic security measures are not taken? Even when you don't even put the printed audit trail on the voting machine?
Seriously?"
I'm in favor of going back to mechanic machines with hand-counted ballots but I suspect you would protest at having to wait a few days to learn the results of such an election. I also suspect that no matter what level of security is implemented in electronic voting that you would still dream up an excuse for how an election was stolen when it didn't turn out the way you wanted.
The fact is that election equipment is very expensive and rarely used. It would be absurdly expensive to implement a secure electronic system that would last 30-40 years and remain secure, not to mention the level of expertise required at every polling place in the country for the 12 hours they are used every 4 years.
I'm not the one making extraordinary claims. The idea that PcAnywhere being installed on a management system 15 years ago has fuck-all to do with anything is the extraordinary claim that requires evidence, and there is none.
I'm not defending electronic voting by the way. It's a horrible idea.

I just realized these machines were known as exploitable and decertified years ago. Nice clickbait though.
This is why voting machines on not connected to the internet.
Or maybe leave your politics at home? Nobody is paying you to be a political activist in the office on their clock.

It's overwhelming.

Anyone trying to steal the 2020 nomination from Hillary is kompromat. Period.
Trump won 304-227.
the Watergate break in was in 1972. Nixon resigned in 1974. 2 years.
Ken Starr was appointed special counsel in 1994. Clinton was impeached in 1998. 4 years.
Why make up dumb shit?

You keep bringing him more votes with every post. You know that right?
That's one of those Russian trolls sent here to discredit Democrats.
Our local library even has a small planetarium that does monthly shows/lectures, and this is in BFE middle of nowhere. I was shocked.

Nobody believes you.
Ironically Russia created the discord and chaos by funding Leftist causes like BLM and various SJW movements. Who are Putin's stooges again?

Yes, and that was done in 2002 with the Help America Vote Act.

I have no problem with the state providing a free basic ID to everyone.
