How is it that we can't afford trials for more than half of our indictments at home, but we can afford to try and inflict our domestic laws on people in Prague? Surely Microsoft and Dropbox do enough business in the Czech Republic to file local charges there, or is it just that they already have the California criminal justice system on retainer?
I have to wonder how successful he'll be when he seems to think that this "international trade globalist fiasco" was not deliberately engineered by US corporations and fatcats, but rather by foreign corporations and fatcats pulling the wool over the eyes of domestic SJWs. By directing his followers to look for an external origin, he often seems to be attempting an ideal job of keeping people from looking while the representatives of those same corporations and fatcats remove any legal hindrance to the speed of the race to the bottom.
But, couldn't the sort of control discussed in this article - building slightly different shapes to the tiny cell wall like structures that prevent fractures, etc. be used to compensate, adjusting the stress response characteristics towards a single norm? Or, just making sure that the skin is stretchier than the core (while having the same rate of thermal expansion). Of course, without the micron scale level of structural control, this would all be gibberish fiction, but if they can do what they say with the structure, then successfully achieving further goals by also varying the composition should be possible.
If they have micron scale control, why continuously print from one material? Couldn't they make a structural center alloy that makes a gradual change (in a subsurface adjustment zone) into a protective surface alloy? In the center, they could even print micro-scale collection of overlapping unyielding hard plates for ultra impact resistance joined by a perfectly formulated softer steel for macro-scale malleability.
I wonder, what is the ratio of per capita DoS attacks between sites that use the ASCII character set for their URL and sites that use other character sets for the URL? Is there a preference for victims using ASCII for the URL that's stronger than preferences based on the geographic location of the site owner?
Perhaps ones that happen during warfare or immediately after a meteor strike or a rogue wave, or during an occurrence that was beyond the capability of the human mind to prepare for in advance. Sometimes it's necessary to prioritize other goals above avoiding accidents. Other times, accident causing problems come from out of a blind spot you didn't know you had.
Most of the civilian boats on board which I've worked have a button at each station: "give control to this station right here." You don't have to find the station that has control to release it. You just take it where you stand. I can understand that the Navy might want to temporarily disable that sort of capability (perhaps using a physical key at the station from which control cannot be taken) if they had immediate concerns about hostile actors on the bridge, but not to have the capability at all seems destined to cause just this sort of problem.
On boats with this system, the "take command" button is lit on the station that currently has command. Also, they generally require the controls at the incoming station to be in "neutral" before command can be taken - the response to the change to neutral is delayed enough on changing stations that you can switch the steering back to autopilot and move the throttles quickly back to the position from the former station without hassling the course or propulsion engines.
Since it's an EU rule, it perhaps it would just only be the combined revenue of operations in countries who are members of the EU. If Hilton wants to isolate financial harm done by a separate data processing company, they'd likely want to be certain that they own less than 50% of it. Otherwise, it isn't separate.
I have read one of those "Top 50 Billionaires" lists once, and it's funny how not a single person on the list got rich selling things to the defense department. The absence made it pretty obvious that some people were able to choose not to be listed.
If you're suggesting that "personal currency" is an oxymoron for most uses of "currency," I do not find that I can argue with you at all. The singularity of its usefulness kind of interferes with the functionality of most of that concept. The personal nature of the use does avoid conflict with the National Bank Acts of 1863-66, though.
Everyone in prison must have a trial, often before a jury. If people want to see this system short circuited then demand everyone be put before a jury.
Sure, except everyone in prison awaiting trial and everyone in prison after a trial was bypassed by plea bargaining. So, according to this result of my quick search, maybe 5% of people in prison have had a trial. After you first convince the citizenry to pay for 19 times more due process, then try and sell me your other ideas.
I think the agreed-upon value is in his service, to which the currency is linked. It's like forever stamps, car wash tokens, or hug coupons. The use-specific currency purchases the same amount of service, regardless of how much the dollar valve of that service changes. In this way it could be better than (eg restaurant specific) gift cards since the restaurant can raise the price of their food after the cards are sold. It's more like stock certificates where one owns the same part of the company regardless of how the company's value changes. Of course, given the amount of ageism involved with decision making about purchasing services in the tech industry, how his personal salability compares to the declining value of the dollar might be a matter for some speculation.
It would be nice to see a device that combines the features of YuiKey 4 Nano with Kensington VeriMark. My fingerprint wouldn't get stolen, because it wouldn't leave the device, but the device wouldn't provide authentication without both my fingerprint and a password. I suppose a little more security in public places could be added by the device also requiring the presence of an RFID keyfob I'm not seen to be using.
It's pretty clear from the comments I read here that people often want to present separate identities to different groups of other people. I think that after cyberbullying news stories, Facebook took the position that none of these desires are to be treated as legitimate. Certainly, in every case that someone desires to hold multiple identities, someone with whom that person interacts will be unhappy about it. While I consider that having separate identities so one might connect with like minded people while avoiding religious persecution is a good thing, the people enacting the religious persecution will disagree. Ideally, one would be able to simply tell Facebook "I want to keep these identities separate," and they would do the rest. That would also benefit Facebook, because they would much less frequently be scaring users by showing how powerful is their knowledge. However, this immediately puts Facebook into the same boat with encryption services, because government law enforcement will want access to knowledge of connections between identities, and not always for reasons Facebook might support. The ultimate answer likely lies in plausible deniability. Facebook's AIs will need to not only learn that separate connections are by the same person (clearly getting pretty easy), but also learn why that person wants to keep them separate. That way they can not admit to knowing about the religious freedom related connections, but "accidentally" out the cyberbullying related connections. Those AIs are still learning, though. Give them some time.
I believe Sony provides access to the drivers of some of their hardware via their Android Open Source Project, which is making the release of Sailfish for Xperia X possible.
Unselfish people could lead happy lives... in a gated community whose members are all unselfish. Unselfish individualists are potentially happier, as they're less inclined to want (or expect) their generosity to change the behavior of others. There's plenty of prosocial selfish people around. I believe the term "leech" is often used to describe them.
I apologize for communicating poorly. When I used the word "governance" above, I had intended to use it in reference to the internal structure of the organization, not in reference to governance imposed by elected officials. I do agree with you that governmental restrictions on mergers an acquisitions will likely only be applied to those neglecting their baksheesh, there's no current incentive to do so in order to appease voters.

Just to watch Trump get all tongue tied having to say something nice about them.
I've heard the fine engineers like Singapore pretty well.

Anyplace people use variable speed drives for motors and don't install reactors on the drives.

I've read that the Russian government and an investor group in China have both expressed interest in Sailfish OS for reasons of improved privacy.
This Jolla Blog entry about Sailfish for Sony Xperia X and this Comparison of Mobile Operating Systems combine to tell the story. Reminds me of Linux on the desktop from some years back.

It's really the only thing that makes the US government listen anymore.
So, I could buy one extra solar panel, and it's free apps for life?
