It makes sense. The Right To Be Forgotten is one of those things that just can't be enforced well, which also runs counter to most other countries' ideas about fundamental rights. It is in every way censorship. If Google complies then it puts them in a bad position forever, and also puts other web search engines (even non-search sites) in a bad position as well. We'll see how well liberté works if the internet is blocked at the borders.
The only crossover skill set between a CEO and political leadership is the ability to tell a lie with a straight face. So it comes down to what sort of liar you prefer.
No love for Carly, but HP has been in death throes for some time. Back in the 80s they had everyone take a forced vacation day every other Thursday, which was the first I heard of that sort of practice, and the locals were surprised and concerned that such a giant company needed to take such action. HP had gone previously through a lot of growth spurts and had bought up new properties to expand into. But it started dwindling away after that point. Most of the original HP businesses were ejected ever time, making it really difficult to continue calling it a "tech" company. Carly was just one in a line of executives involved in the dismantling of the institution.
It may be or it may not be. But it's a very short leap to assume that in the most Islamophobic town in America that there might have been Islamophobic reasons for their overreactions.
Problem is, if you criticize one you are automatically assumed to be a fanboy of the opposite party. Politics is like a sports game, you are required to choose sides.
There's not much control from the center in practice. The local party bosses tend to be given completely free reign, until there's a scandal or someone dies. Laws are broken left and right. It's top-down rule in name only, except before any internationally visible event.
It is shorter in China because all the designs coming from there are utter crap. It's all about saving money, cutting corners, shortening design time, ignoring problems and hoping they go away, etc. Not talking about factories here, but the actual designs.
So they don't block 100% of ads. They do block 99.5% of ads though, and they're extremely popular, so they're the ones that scare the ad makers, not the 20 people using alternatives.
I agree. Putting in product placement, promoting a product, that's all well and good. But that's not how most of the web works. They want to automatically count views, then automatically pay out cash, and the web site owner wants to just sit back and collect the caps without thinking about how the sausage is made. Treat the ads like a tattoo; you wouldn't want a random tattoo that you had no choice over, so why have a random ad that makes your site look bad?
When ads on cable TV are less obnoxious than on the web then you things are broken.
But to the cop, this visit to the school was the most interesting part of his week so far. So maybe he wanted to spend a few more hours browbeating this kid and seeing if he could get a confession.
What I find amusing is that they want judges to ignore all foreign laws. But American law and the laws of the individual states are built upon the back of foreign laws. British, French, German, even Spanish.
And this is really the most you expect at that age, even from geniuses. You need more advanced maths really to design anything new. Well maybe not that much maths of you're just doing digital stuff, but even then an original design is going to involve stuff a lot more complex than you learn in middle school. But it is the perfect age to start taking stuff apart, experimenting with ways to put them back together, etc.

Ah. The mouth piece talked big, but the bowels of the company had nothing to deliver. Sales up top, actual workers down below.
That's too Texan. Further west we use turquoise or silver.

Go here instead of the initial link. It has a longer and more interesting story.

But that was not an engineering problem that was solved. That was a manufacturing and management problem.
Can get parts over night, if they're common enough parts.
Also, if you go from prototype to finished product in an afternoon, then something is seriously screwed up with the design review and product review.

Yup, after paying for the ISP, that should be enough, especially with some of those prices.
Legislating clean air has worked. Check out the air in Los Angles now versus 30 years ago.
So it's ok to cheat during the test, but not afterwards?
If there was no consequence, I could sell you a $50,000 donkey, and claim it was a Lexus.
It's out and out fraud. Yes, fraud is illegal.
Yes we all know she is burdened with a big ass. Which is why you should never rush into a marriage.
Explain why this is a troll, and the islamophobic post above is insightful?

Facts ruin good conspiracy theories.

For the average non-technical adult, both cases are indistinguishable from magic.
