Probably with the abolition of committees. One genius can come up with a spec and even make a program that uses it all by themselves, they do not need committees that invite NSA operatives and corporate representatives in. One person, can come up with the best way to do something, and then just do it. Creating software is not that hard.
I assume this guy is trying to toe the line between free speech and being branded a traitor and jailed for the rest of his life. If I were in his shoes, I do not think I would want to out an undercover NSA operative.
OK, but defence is 100 times harder than offences. It would be relatively easy to plan a security hole that is implemented only over a 2 month period in completely unrelated parts of the problem.
And if you have the authority to arrest anyone who does not comply, it would be easy for the compiled binaries to be different than the source code in one or two tiny ways.
Done right, by security experts, it would be impossible to spot.
Open source is just one more whole that they can insert malicious code into. They can still go up to the head of the open source organization and says "you must include this back-door in your program, or go to jail". Or/and they can just just hire someone to contribute code that has security flaws.
And in the extremely unlikely event that anyone spots the bas code, just replace it with something else 2 days latter.
So you are saying that drones are a cheap, easy, and incredibly effective way to oppressive your citizens, and you are wondering why everyone is worried?
But that everything. Probably is "beyond a reasonable doubt." in the eyes of the law.
If your gun is used in a murder, you better be well liked in the community, look innocent, and have a super awesome alibi, because otherwise you are going to jail even if half a dozen other people have access to that gun.
The courts sent people who look guilty to death row when they can proof that they could not have done the crime. Any decently circumstantial evidence is really enough.
Hell, even DNA evidence is not any better than a 1 in a thousand chance that it is actually your DNA. So entirety circumstantial.
No one is perfect. MLK was a great man, but I don't personally like him, and I would not put it past him to care more about his personal fortune than the black community.
"For example a program to increase 7th-grade math teachers' understanding of math increased their understanding but had no effect on student achievement." Well if achievement is measured in grades received for that course, well of course not. They all have bell curves to maintain and everyone must still pass. If a teacher gets better at teaching, they will teach better and grade harder.
It was worth going there a few times, but it is just a pretty boring piece of static rock hovering far above our heads? Why not actually go to a planet or moon where we might actually make new discoveries and expand the limits of human space travel?
I guess you will always find some attention seeking idiot, but who would even want to go to the moon simply to take 30 more samples of things we already have samples of, while receiving deadly doses of radiation that will possibly shaves decades off of your life.
Only as long as those woods are located inside your country and you own them and pay taxes on them.

Make sure to tell your local US government official so that they can direct you to your designated free speech zone, and prepare the riot squads to come in and beat you and arrest you.

100 Watt LED? Would that not be like as bright as the sun? Would that not be bright enough to blind you, as it gives you a tan from 50 feet away? That has to be equivalent to at least a 250 watt normal lightbulb.
OK, but then the prefix will be dynamic and change every week unless I pay them $10/month. I guarantee you, ISPs are not just going to remove a source of income, for absolute no reason.
"None of this would have happened if IPv6 had been deployed by now, and everything had a static IP address. Then peer to peer services just work."
That does not make any sense, IPv6 is just more address space. The reason I do not have a static address is because then ISP can charge more for a static address, this will not change in IPv6.
OK, and how? The reason anyone counts lines is because there is no way to accurately measure anything else closer to success. The only way I see to "Measure accuracy in meeting objectives.", in either world, is for a teacher/supervisor to occasionally give you feedback on how well you are doing, where you need work, and your outstanding areas.
This is not a measurement, because there is nothing to measure. There is no magic number that captures success, but yes a superior can critic you and give you helpful constructive advice.

I disagree, completely.

Which would implying that torrenting is inherently illegal, as uploading small parts of the latest linux distro is providing a service.
But that everything.

Tell that to Snowden.

And is this CEO a Confucianist?
Actually all the empirical evidence seems to point to it being harder.
I had a young university friends a few years ago who worked at one of those hip new tech companies, and they got a keg every day at launch.
And don't forget to call them all grandpa or grandma, they like it when you do that.
He is right about one thing, they should not be on your WORKPLACE desktop.
