Something for nothing is a crazy idea. Tax-payer funded healthcare for all may or may not be a good idea, depending on how it's implemented. (I'm firmly in the camp that says it would be a bad idea because I know there's no fucking chance that it will end up helping anyone but the mega wealthy and the very poor.)
American Independence wasn't based on threats and puffery (as least, from the US side)
Uh, yes it was. A ragtag group of misfits with no military, no resources, and no coordination tugged on Superman's cape and said "FUCK YOU".
The American Revolution was won primarily by the French. The runner-up for defeating the British was the British. The Americans were best described as pirates or guerillas who spent most of their time freezing, starving, and hiding.
Further, who the fuck said anything about attacking random strangers?
Violent self defense is still violence. Loyalists rising up, military coming across the sea, brother fighting brother, etc. was self defense from their point of view. Just as both sides in the Civil War were defending what they believed in.
Skinner: Well, I was wrong. The predatory bacterial strains are a godsend. Lisa: But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by predatory bacterial strains? Skinner: No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the predatory bacterial strains . Lisa: But aren't the snakes even worse? Skinner: Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat. Lisa: But then we're stuck with gorillas! Skinner: No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.
I don't understand what it so bad about AMP? It looks like just another framework. In the end it is just a HTML document with a big.js blob that does stuff. Still standards-compliant. You are free to use it or not, or pick the parts that are interesting to you. You may be required to follow some rules in order to use Google's proxy service but you are not forced to use it.
Seeing how things go on the web, AMP will soon be deprecated. Perhaps with something that support gigabyte-sized minimalist pages better.
It's a subset of HTML, plus new shit Google threw in (so not standards compliant) and a big ol' feed back to Google. Ultimately, a user sees "AMP" content as a fucking compressed image hosted by Google and devoid of any reference to the original source. When a user wants to interact with it, there's a delay as the page is actually loaded and rendered (as opposed to the shitty jpg), and Google gets all the info of what users do on that page, not the actual author. I believe Google did recently update Chrome on Android to allow people to go to the actual source when viewing an AMP page, but no user is going to bother.
If you have a webpage, and you AMPify it, Google will prefer to show the AMP version in search listings. When a user stumbles upon it, they'll see a jpg served by Google. If they try to interact with it, Google serves up your AMP page directly. Users don't see the source URL unless they jump through hoops, and you don't see visitors unless you plug in to Google's shitty reporting. Of course, Google gets more data. Lots more.
I'm not going to bother visiting your link, but that's because I already agree with it. AMP is trash and is incredibly frustrating from an end-user's point of view.
The Model 3, AKA the Model E, was being teased to investors since 2007. They routinely kicked that can down the road. They're currently planning to start production in a few months, but won't be offering all models/features until at least Q2 2018.
The cars are sold at a loss if you include all the costs, such as the service and support contract, free lifetime access to their charging network (they stopped giving this out recently), etc. If you focus just on the BOM & production costs, then maybe not. In reality, they're hemorrhaging money because their costs are way too high for their sales prices, even when you account for all the luxury addons they push on you. Even Elon Musk admits they're losing money and are overvalued. In fact, he seems quite proud of it.
No. They got hit hard because many sites don't patch things.
Our IT department (at an NHS hospital) have been busy all week patching PCs - in some cases, techs were going around with USB keys, because there were "WSUS issues" which prevented the patches being deployed remotely.
A variety of IT contractors (who supply software as a service on co-located servers) have also been running around. One of the IT contractors admitted to me, that he had just patched a server (owned and managed by the software vendor but sited at the hospital) that was running windows 2012 with absolutely no patches installed. It had been misconfigured 5 years ago, and never received a single update, and no one ever checked on it.
I used to manage WSUS, and still do but via SCCM. You do not need suggestive quotation marks when referring to WSUS issues. Shit is unreliable.
The summary indicates that the technique decrypts computers affected by wannacry, but then later says this is not the case as XP machines were not affected by wannacry. To be blunt, what the hell is going on?!?
I'm not old enough to remember the 70s, but I am old enough to remember science books, articles, videos etc. referencing such science from the 70s.
There was absolutely a "new ice age" idea/theory that was given broad consideration and even acceptance. If the internet had existed and a shitty documentary had been made about it, you might even say there was a "consensus" or that "the science" was "settled".
In terms of auto makers, 13 years is nothing. They've only been hyped up after Steve Jobs died because the media wanted a new Steve Jobs (Elon Musk).
The reliability of their vehicles isn't too hot. The cost is high, even when sold at a loss. Their entire design policy involves giving users beta cars the involve absurdities like seats being bricked by wonky firmware upgrades. Their mass-market model is delayed endlessly, and if/when it comes out they will not be able to manufacture it in volume.
They're simply not ready to play with the big boys. I'd compare it to Google thinking they could be an ISP. Yeah, some people are on Google fiber but a lot actually hate it, and Google has abandoned all plans at expansion because they realized they don't have the TRILLIONS it would take to buy all the infrastructure and lobbyists needed to get in on that game nation wide.
Google did have a positive impact by causing competition in areas they entered. Tesla has had a similar positive impact, with manufacturers clamoring to get a line-up of plug-in electric vehicles that have decent range. I'm glad both of them did what they did (just as I'm glad Apple got manufacturers to care about screen resolution ever since they coined the shitty "retina display" term).
But as far as being an actual success in the market? Nope. Not unless Elon and investors are willing to ride out another solid decade of pitiful (or even negative) results, battle against the states that make it illegal to sell Teslas (since they have no dealerships), figure out a way to profit from their sales and from their charging network, etc.
An AC down below called me a hater. I'd love for Tesla to succeed (despite my actual hate for Musk), even if I end up never being interested in their products. They bring competition and (possibly) innovation. I'm not aware of any other consumer electric vehicle with such a practical driving range, for example. I'm just a realist. Established industries are very, very, very hard to break into. Breaking into them by shitting hype and bleeding money rarely works. The establishment can outlast and outlawyer your investors.
They couldn't get traction because they were investigating the (at the time) current administration and soon-to-be Queen. A certain someone at the FBI said as much.
And now you're all crying about how it's not right for Trump's administration to investigate Trump's campaign's alleged ties to Russia and alleged interference (i.e., revealing some truths about Hillary). So now we have a special independent investigation going on. Yet Clinton under Obama's administration never got that level of unbridled scrutiny.
Yes, they call it the PSP. Platform Security Processor, I believe. I think there's some ARM core at it's... core. The recently committed to taking a serious look at the calls for them to either offer a way to verifiably disable it or to open source it. This was before the AMT fiasco hit, so I imagine they're motivated to actually do so to capitalize on the matter (assuming they are actually free to do so).
Of course, only one of those two paragraphs above are true. Namely, the first one is a lie. No such recording exists, but there is a deadly important matter surrounding the sufficiency and value of "evidence" against POTUS we need to discuss now that we have your attention.
Even if they didn't admit to clickbait bullshit lies, why would you believe any of the hundreds of copycat, fake "rogue" Twitter accounts? Are you mentally retarded?

What we urgently need to do is to learn to let people die.
