The facial recognition software isn't really to compare with your photos in public, it's primarily so that can check within the system whether you're getting licenses issued for yourself under different names.
Yeah, lots of the comments were opposed. The judge looked through them, and saw that all the reasons people/groups/corporations were opposed weren't illegal or anticompetitive. So, no reason to reject the settlement.
Sure it does. And I'm no fan of homeopathy. The areas listed in the "Mote Prime" article are areas strongly influenced by the placebo effect (pain, fatigue, depression, anxiety, etc.). I assume that Homeopathy would have the same influence as any other placebo in treating those problems.
I've done work in GIS software that definitely used my Calculus and Linear Geometry training (for surface areas and distances and intersections on a sphere, for example). The times you need the math are when there isn't already a "package" available for you, or when you need to do something efficiently (optimizing calculations). In my current job Statistics is shaping up to be more useful.
Then again, I did also have a math minor and gravitate toward technical jobs, so some of that stuff is expected. But I'm not in gaming or rocket science or statistics.
Good luck getting any of that reversed when elected politicians eyes are like looney toon cartoon characters with dollar signs rolling and a cash register caching. They won't ever vote to strip themselves of unlimited secret campaign funds and a third party candidate would just take a seat at the trough with the 600+ other pigs.
Who do you think passed McCain-Feingold before the Supreme Court struck down the provision? It wasn't a referendum.
Since nearly all the content people want to watch needs to be licensed willingly be the major studios, this should be no surprise. They'll just keep raising their rates until Netflix goes out of business. This is the inevitable failure of a permission-based service provider.
At least with DVDs they weren't existing at the whim of the studios. They could make them horribly angry and still operate legally. With streaming they have no such independence.
I looked it up prior to my other post, and I am not, but it seemed unlikely to be your intention (which seemed closer to Merriam-Webster meaning #2, "showing or marked by a lack of familiarity with language and literature").
Misplacing an apostrophe hardly seems like it would represent someone unwilling to read. But if that truly was your meaning, I salute you.
Thank you. "const" modifies the thing that preceded it. Iff nothing precedes it, it modifies the first thing that follows it. It's not terribly complicated.
I pin always-running applications so that, even if I restart them, they'll always be in the same place on my taskbar. Since several of our internal apps have the same icons, I use position to tell them apart.

In my state you can opt-out of having your picture saved. The DMV worker tries to talk you out of it, but you can do it.

Homeopathy doesn't.

Jury Misconduct. Plain and Simple.
Agreed. Having served on a jury, this is the kind of thing a foreman is supposed to prevent / report. It turns out that they chose the wrong foreman.
I noticed the summary conveniently forgets to mention that there are also several hundred boxes of paper evidence.
From the summary:
In addition, information associated with the case had managed to fill 'several hundred boxes' of paper documents
Next time you decide to bash the summary, read it first.
There's a Stephen King book with a similar situation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald's_Game

Luckily I've never had a problem with stoop theft though.
That's because they're heavy and generally have little resale value.

"Unitied Nations", seriously?
In response to your Subject, which is the comment version of a headline, "No".
Not to mention that the U.S. also wasn't around in the Mesozoic. It's not even 250 years old.

Oh my God! Did you warn them? About Haiti and Japan?

Maybe they are being made for the same people as the original Xbox controllers?
I loved my Xbox controllers. The "S" controllers for Japanese children with vestigial right-palm-fingers were ridiculous.
Damn it, you two aliterates
Please correct correctly.
Independently owned stores pay better and treat their employees better than walmart.
I worked at Walmart for a summer. To what poor treatment was I supposedly subjected?
Old testament reference, perhaps? The lions didn't eat Samson.

I was going to make the Leibowitz connection, too. Thank you for saving me the trouble.
