This sounds like a good way to create a security hole in the company network. I would give them something less critical to play with initially. Most companies have internal projects they would like completed, a wiki or something.
OK, so let's say the proposed change is crafted to increase competition, improve service, reduce prices, and put a chicken in every pot before 18 months are up. All these things are testable. All significant policy changes from any side should come with a test plan, a rollout plan, a success criteria and a backout plan for every stage of the rollout.
And if the effect of the policy change is too small to determine among all the other noise in the system take specific steps to address that by bundling policy changes or testing it in a smaller environment - I believe even the Chinese do that. For example, ask for state governors to volunteer their state as a testbed for policy that they believe is a great idea for the US as a whole.
how do they know how much time anyone put into making a podcast or whatever. Maybe they put in half an hour and it generates $4 each month - it's all gravy beyond minimum wage after the first month.
I just signed up for wapo via amazon. I don't mind paying the little they are asking if they will do a reasonable job of the journalism and it is refreshed daily. There are ads (there were in the paper version too). I'll be more interested to see how much new content there is each day, after all the old paper was completely new each day. I suspect some of the content will stick around online longer.
In some jurisdictions I believe that the consent of everyone present is needed if conversations are recorded. I wonder if this means that anyone with one of these devices will need to hang a sign saying audio surveillance is in progress.
It's the new company that you have not heard of yet that you should worry about. Entrenching the incumbents is a conservative value, disruptive ideas must cease. If only they had gotten to this earlier youtube and netflix could have been nipped in the bud.
If he has as inquiring a mind as he claims, and has resources and is handy as he seems to be, then I have to wonder why he isn't off to find the edge of the world, that would prove us all wrong.
I'd like to encourage him, these amateur science projects are bound to encounter stangs from time to time, but on the other hand I don;t want to be complicit in him blowing himself up, so I'm torn...
It seems like every few weeks there is another story in the press about how an achitecture student discovered shipping containers are hollow inside. Maybe now is the time to see a lot of hurricane proof housing made of steel hi-cubes.
strikes me that much of this could be solved by changing the design of the dishes, dishwasher racks and cabinetry. Make glasses, plates utensils etc. to fit the dishwasher and shed food more easily (less deep, radiused corners, better non-stick finishes designed for dishwashing)
I'm surprised whirlpool doesn't have a range of especially dishwasher-friendly crockery and glassware for "everyday" use
Also, surprised that dishwashers don't come with better removable racks that can be set on a countertop to be filled or slide directly into a cabinet to unload the dishwasher in one fell swoop
Maybe it would be heavy for dishes (unless they split the racks in half) but it could easily be achieved for knives and forks
Maybe they should flicker all the lighting at 60Hz, 50% duty cycle synchronized to the city power and let people buy glasses that can be set to pass light when the LEDs are off and block it when they are on. Then they need never see any light pollution.

Brilliant. Instead of putting a fiber in the ocean they just let the signal hop from shark to shark up and down the bay of Bengal.
That's what the stars are. void *
unfortunately it de-compiles the machine code to perl.
put a halo on it, there's probably a religious exception for the christian supremacists.

I only ever view it in EBCDIC - it all looks encrypted to me.
Maybe they'll patent a machine that can count bills - or maybe even weigh them

I would appear that 16 was the age of consent in 1979 when the act supposedly took place. reference

I think you're confusing glaciers with icebergs. invert an empty glass and put the ice on top, when it melts there will be a puddle.
That's not as scary as knowing that the robots in silent running had people inside.

IANAL but I suspect you'll still do jail time if you put a browning on your john deere and send it after people while firing blanks and tracers.

Now all they need to do is pick a sarcastic name for the declaration
