Don't get me wrong, the TSA are constitution breaking assholes, that do a million times more harm than even the theoretical good they could do.
But, they are searching people for guns and other contraband. And when they find some, what are they supposed to do? Ask the criminal carrying a weapon to calmly surrender to the unarmed TSA agents (the most hated people in all of the USA), so that you can be detained without trial for the next twenty years and tortured for information?
I bet that incorrectly labelling tax is a felony. You cannot just collect a tax, and then keep it for yourself because you charged more than the government required.
But that is not a word problem. There is no right answer to that unique set of words. You can only understand that question if a teacher explains the template to you before hand. As that is a meaningless set of words, by itself.
But that is stupid. You either know maths or you do not. Every single person in the world uses the same icons, technical wording, algorithms, and first principles for a reason.
Questions need to stand alone, and be understandable and solvable (if you are similarly proficient in maths) regardless of which country, state, or school you learned maths in.
Maths is not about teaching kids to recognize and understand one set of strangely worded sentences as a maths question.
I had no idea it was that close. I had never read anything about when the sun would be significantly effecting life, just that in 3-4 the planet would unlivable.
1 Billion is pretty small in planetary time, we are in the twilight of earth's life supporting existence, you could say.
You are hired by your employer to do what they say. You know that person who gives you your paycheck?
Why would you disobey an order from any or your supervisors?
Your job description requiems that you go to those meetings, and it also requires that you answer text messages while in those meetings. Failure to do either is likely to put you in trouble. You cannot just not show up to required meetings, and you cannot just say "oops, I was in a meeting." when all of sales was without network access for a half hour. Which just happened to overlap with a scheduled video conference call with a multi-million dollar potential client.
There is nothing contradictory or confusing about those things.
I think it is safe to assume Google saw this coming. Which means they believe it will cost less than 4.4 billion to win (I assume their ability to serve ads, and android, both are not something they will willingly give up on).
HUD designed to compliment your driving of a vehicle, given to trained professionals, are not that same thing as monitors that have internet access, and are designed to access Wikipedia and chat with your friends, strapped to a civilians head while driving.
But just because you sign that, does not mean that the manufacturer/programmer will not be held responsible for the bus load of kids who drove off a cliff.
The scientists can refuse any study they want to. And if they had reason to believe that the same people asking them to do the study would turn around, and hold up their study as still more proof that GW does not exist, than that in my mind is a decent reason to refuse.
It is hard to hate someone who provides such a great service.
And I do not see any Monopoly like actions, like MS has done in the past. just peerless competition.
I have not seen them stifling other competing services, just competing and winning against retail. It is not their fault that retail does not seem willing to change to compete, and that no one is decent launching Amazon-like services.
It is like Steam, sure they have a monopoly, but it is not their fault.
I very much doubt that a search warrant for guns prevents the police from taking files that very well might have to do with the purchase/maintenance/use of guns. And I very much doubt that they need to read every single file they confiscate before they confiscate it to guarantee its relevance (as that would take months in some cases).
This article makes it sound like it is illegal for the FBI to confiscate journalists notes with a real bona-fide warrant. Is there some law that prevents the seizure of journalistic notes?
So basically this author just proved that spanking, caning, and wiping are the best learning techniques, and positive reinforcement is a baseless pseudo-science.

And they get summer off.
It all ends up being a decent job overall.
Going to school had far less to do with your genius than your parents finances.
Every single person in the first world now has every advantage and more than those school kids of yesteryear.
This is what you would get if you let the author of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (the text adventure) write your tests.

Speeding? really?
This guy bought and likely used equipment to block, foil, and escape from police.
This goes so far beyond speeding, there is probably enough here to put him in jail for life.

A lot of the technical people have job descriptions that have you on call, at least, the entire work day.
These job descriptions do not list paying attention at unimportant meetings that have nothing to do with you.
So, of course you read/respond to texts in meetings.
I would say that proves he was an over-hyped idiot, not an artist.
I think it is safe to assume Google saw this coming. Which means they believe it will cost less than 4.4 billion to win (I assume their ability to serve ads, and android, both are not something they will willingly give up on).
You would thing the best and easiest way would just be to filter/treat cow blood in some way.
And how did that work out for him?
HUD designed to compliment your driving of a vehicle, given to trained professionals, are not that same thing as monitors that have internet access, and are designed to access Wikipedia and chat with your friends, strapped to a civilians head while driving.
I am sure they will, and they always would have.

Easy Germany had fewer nukes and other weapons of mass destruction.

Well they are not going to read every file they confiscate right there, they are going to confiscate everything and decide latter if it is meaningful.
And a drawer full of files can include a gun/bullet receipt, plans to shoot the president, gun operational instructions, etc.
This article makes it sound like it is illegal for the FBI to confiscate journalists notes with a real bona-fide warrant.
Is there some law that prevents the seizure of journalistic notes?
I know of no rights that prevent a warranted search and seizure.
