More worrying, what about instead of taking out satellites and drone control towers, an enemy takes over them with a virus.
Sure the average foot soldier might not use or encounter very many networked devices. But what if the guidance system in every smart bomb was redirected back at our own troops, ever Predator drone was reprogrammed to search and destroy all humans.
OK. I do not know much about the details. But I imagine one you come back from a long extended maternity leave pregnant and indeed close to term, that does not mean that maternity leave will make you get an abortion or give you absolutely no time off when you have the baby.
I really do not see fanatical creationalist teachers not slipping in some creatonalism, and I would say the same thing about the evolutionists but for evolution.
If you are a teacher who teaches biology, you would pretty much necessaries either know that evolution was true, or know that it was false and the bible true.
Then quit your job, or ask your boss to let you have some unpaid time off. I am no Republican nor a capitalist but it is not the government's job to raise your child.
Ya, I know someone who collected wages for years and just had to go to work for a few weeks inbetwean, In some cases maternity leave can be as long as 52 weeks here (Canada).
The warm water in the air condensates on the container, and warms up over time. Their is no instant where water suddenly appears and releases all of its heat.
Except there is actually an engineering organisation that actually owns the word Engineering, and if you take an actual software engineering course instead of computer science you are learning quite a lot of difference skills.
I was in one for a few years. If I had graduated I would, for example, been able to OK the blue prints of a bridge, I was told. When you are an engineer you are considered, legally, to know what you are doing, and can practice in any engineering field (because if you say you know enough to do something, that is supposed to be considered enough). Similarly, if you are an actual engineer, doing actual engineering work, you are held far more accountable for any damage work that you OK does. If some company builds a pacemaker, at some place in the project there will be an software engineer, and he will do a job and be held responsible in a far different way than the code monkeys.
Well that thing about comparing designing an object for 3D printing vs building a mould. You could just print off the mould in a 3D printer, guaranteeing a equal built time.
Yes, but like my post mentioned. I am sure this is just replacing plastic crap with metal crap. Making something out of a material that is classified as metal is one thing, actually producing something with the exact some properties as a properly forged blade, the strength and flexibility of a Samurai sword, or something that would work as an engine in a huge industrial machine is another.
Well I am not even 100% sure what a milling machine is. But I imagine that if you wanted one that you could plug into a desktop that would follow any design you input into it, like say the design for all the parts of a AK-47, then it would either cost 500K (if it was possible at all).
Well, like milling machines, as long as they cost 500K and years of experience to use they will not have to outlaw it.
But it will never be a product that is hooked up to your personal desktop, where little billy (after he is finished printing out his assignment), loading up a underground website and prints off a AK47 with the click of the button.
Which is why they will never be allowed to go mainstream. There is not a single country on Earth that would be ok with allowing its citizens to have the ability to produce weapons.
That is the thing. How hard is it to just make a mould to mass produce regular plastic stuff. Really, it is going to take the same effort to design an object to be printed as it would take to make a mould to more easily and cheaply mass produce something with normal materials. The only benefit 3D printing has is potentially one off custom stuff. But how many people actually want an action figure of themselves; which is the only use case I have heard thus far that seems legitimate.
Printing plastic and printing metal is completely different. And I do not really see the latter being possible in the same extent. 3D printing is printing plastic crap, that is not not going to change.
And sure, 3D printing something out of some type of metal seems realistic, but metal is a whole lot more complicated than plastic. When you forge something metal many many factors go into the final product and the exact type of metal and exact formulae are important. There are thousands of different types of steel, and thousands of different ways to go about forging something out of them.
How does it even make scene to consider this evidence in the first place. These are files that the plaintiffs submitted from their own computers. They are testimony.
A gun with fingerprints is full blown evidence. A written statement from a witness is testimony.
No, it is just that all literature that English teacher force their students to read is objectively awful. It is the tradition to only assign mind numbingly horrible books in high school.
But is their not some requirement that all books that teachers can make you read in English class have to be incredibly boring? That is the only way that any of the assigned reading I got would make any sense.
Or there is a necessary resource that is not abundant enough...
If you have a city and only enough food to feed everyone on starvation rations for the next 4 months. A incorrect solution would be taxing this food beyond reason (and we have many laws that prevent this), the top 1% would buy all the food, but you did solve the "too much demand" problem.
Sure in any situation preventing anyone for using the roads unless they shell out $1000 would fix the problem. As 99% of people would simply be unable to afford even occasional trips. They would also be excluded from the economy. We would not have solved any problems, just came up with a way to shift it around and hide it.
If travel demand was a liquid as you thought that congestion would be a self fixing problem. You would pay this extra tax in time and frustration and before long demand for the road would go down to reasonable limits.
But like I explained, we are already paying market price. Widening the 405 in this market costs 1.1 billion dollars, and we paid it. Why would you want to tax beyond what the market asks for?

Because the government is firmly stuck as democratic, it would not be easy to change that now.
Does it really matter what the law is?

The same could be said for the results of promoting child birth.
Promoting child birth is considered good for the community?

"refuse to buy games that require internet connection" So basically the options are No Games or pirating all your games?
People crave purpose, like plants crave Brawndo.
Many small time indie studios have launched entire movies exclusively through bittorrent.
If Hollywood was going to fret about Indies embracing bittorrent they should of started a few years ago.
