It's an uneducated american thing. The people that think they need 1500-2000 sq feet are highly uneducated as to what they actually need, they are just the "bigger=better" mindset.
They allowed politicians to be a part of the process. Politicians know NOTHING about land use, management, etc.. Your city planner is a complete and utter moron when it comes to the job they have, city planning.
None of the homes need to be larger than 850 sq foot. Making a city self sustaining is certainly possible if you do three things.
1 - gather all leaders into one place. 2 - Lock all of them in a big room with no windows. 3 - let scientists and engineers do all the planning based on real data and real designs.
Sadly most people are dumb as a box of rocks and believe they cant be happy without a 5500 sq foot mc mansion and at least 2 acres of Kentucky Bluegrass that requires 10 gallons per square yard a day in water. So eliminate the people as well, at least the dumb ones.
if you know of a NSA or Govt operation going on, get an operative to place a unit near them and start intercepting their cellphone traffic so you can spy on the guys spying.
Now imagine making hundreds of these things all placed at specific locations but with a backend system that lets you enable or disable at will. Now you have a cellular snoopnet covering a very wide area.
Call a press conference and say, "I want to shut down Gitmo but the republican assholes refuse to let me, wil you the american people help me close gitmo?"
You require reeducation. The proper response for americans when they hear the word "terrorists" is to uncontrollably urinate. Defication is completely outside the allowed response reaction protocol.
Can you please show up to the Reeducation center nearest to you as soon as possible. Bring something soft to bite down on and shave the back of your head for easier placement of the electrodes.
Very true. IT was one of the vectors how mitnick got lazy and got caught. Manning simply was dumb and was bragging about it to someone, Rule #1 of what you never do. Rule #2 is never brag to a known government mole, again another mistake he made.
It is not hard to run your own DNS locally, plus you can always use a connection elsewhere to do a DNS lookup from outside the USA via IP address.
Add one more step, high gain directional antenna. I can be 500 meters away from the starbucks and use the wifi there, or pick another open or public wireless source. Easy to fit in a backpack and works even if it's inside the backpack, so nothing is visible and you dont attract attention.
Lastly, Everyone assumes that you have to use a web browser.
Yes it is. even as simple as using a 3mm screw on one end and a 5mm screw on the other end. attempting to install it wrong will instantly cause a problem because one screw will not go through the hole.
Problem is, most places are hiring lowest wage workers, so you do not get people that have the IQ to understand that if the screw does not fit then something is wrong, they just get more 3mm screws or more likely the even more stupid foreman or manager tells them to.
Same goes if you use a keying hole and peg, easy to make improper installation obvious, until that manager tells them to grind off the peg.
But did you test it with absurd conditions? I rarely see any software testing that they say," ok let's install all the sensors backwards and see what it does" They assume that never happens and never test for what is assumed as "impossible to ever happen".

70% of the population on this planet fit's a family of four in 400-600sq feet.

Yet you are trying to force me at gunpoint to pay for technology that is not needed.
Oh the irony...
This will be as popular as the "internet ticks" crap that Swatch tried to sell to everyone.
Yup just like how no governor of a state would in his right mind talk about selling a senators seat to the highest bidder.
Ask Illinois about that.
Actually yes.
if you know of a NSA or Govt operation going on, get an operative to place a unit near them and start intercepting their cellphone traffic so you can spy on the guys spying.

Actually that is a bold faced lie.
99.9762% of all Americans want them here and on public trial. Dont know what kind of cult you live in, but normal americans believe in justice.
Default to BSD license or Public domain. Simply run a query that if one is not set, set it to Public domain.
That will fix everything.
Sounds like a plan, please post your bank account numbers so you can fund the Extra $3500 per gun for the smart platform.
The fact they are ungodly expensive.
The article is stupid, it might as well say, "BMW 725i is a failure because far more Ford Festivas are sold each year."
He does have the power but lacks the balls.
Call a press conference and say, "I want to shut down Gitmo but the republican assholes refuse to let me, wil you the american people help me close gitmo?"
Only for the Low IQ crowd.
I will cry myself to sleep nightly...
"engineers are too arrogant to walk onto the line and tell workers and managers why performing the task in a certain way is important."
Bet you it is in the assembly documentation that they are not reading.

Thank you citizen.

"There's of course the entire DNS issue"

Says someone that has never said anything of value here on slashdot.
"Wake up, the only way to SAFELY run a reactor is to put operational safety ahead of making money"
But that is not highly profitable.
Can we at least use minimum wage workers and temps?
Yes it is. even as simple as using a 3mm screw on one end and a 5mm screw on the other end. attempting to install it wrong will instantly cause a problem because one screw will not go through the hole.

The computer could certainly shut down a rocket given bad information. IT probably wigged completely out and simply shut down that engine.
When you try to make things cheaper you get failures.
