I have managed to consolidate capital punishment and the possible flaws by the following requirements:
1. Convicted of a crime that qualifies for capital punishment 2. Found guilty unanimously by a jury. 3. Sentenced as such 4. The accused is examined and found to be mentally fit. 5. The accused agrees with and signs off on the punishment (after all appeals are completed or waived)
I believe these conditions would allow for capital punishment, while ensuring a minimum of wrongful convictions.
I can't believe that someone would just go through the riders and hand them out to whomever, and not check, especially if a condition wasn't met, the whole contract would be forfeited. If they had a rider stating that the trash cans in the green room had to be changed every 60 minutes, or the contract would be forfeited, would you trust some 16 year old to perform that and not check up on them? "Oh, sorry, Board of Directors, it wasn't my fault the show got cancelled, and couldn't recoup our losses, but Andre forgot to follow the rider......I think he may have been distracted by exams at school."
In fine restaurants, they just don't give the customer's orders to the chefs then forget about them. There is a person on the line who's job is specifically to ensure that the finished product is as expected by the standards set by the guy who owns the place. There is also a FOH person to make sure that the standards of the customer are being met as well (of course, there are conflicts between the line and customer that arise, but those can be worked out)
How about paying a substantial fraction of what the CEOs get. Won't stop hacking, but while prevention is half the game, motivation would go quite a bit, I think. Personally, I am pretty sure a lot of these 'hacks' are just former employees that got screwed and was offered a whole bunch of money for very little knowledge by someone else. An NDA isn't Captain America's shield when the employee was pretty much broke anyways.
HA! I will point out your problem. You went mainstream. Years ago, I realized that all the hacking tools go that route too. So, all my passwords are only 2 characters......and only binary numbers. Hack That!
I seem to recall reading about a similar trend back in the 40's. Took quite a few "wins" over various countries until the aggressors were called on it. Wasn't quite sports related, mind you.
The hip-hop group The Coup was just about to release an album cover showing members of the group blowing up the towers. The pictures had been taken in June, 2011 and the album was planned to be released in November. They quickly decided to go with a different theme. Read more:
Why not use the same vibration tech that bugs me when my ringer is off. Use bluetooth and have the left or right handle bar start throbbing when you need to turn. Or if you don't keep your hands on the wheel then use the vibration on the L/R of your seat.....what was I talking about again?
You'd figure they would be more concerned about leaving unpackaged sharp knives around for the humans themselves considering the insurance costs.
"Well you see officer, the man was over at that wall full of razor sharp knives that were hung on those pegboard things, and he was on his tippy toes grabbing one, then the whole thing tilted over."
Just put a scoop on the front, some modified roomba software inside, and you have freedom from shovelling! Would sell millions of units in Canada alone.
Wow! A quad-quark particle. That must be as exciting for Physicists, as the quad-screwdriver drink I discovered years ago. (or at least I was told I was very happy).

Alex, The question is "Who let the dogs out?"

And like voting machines, they are infallible.

Definitely a Borg joke in there somewhere.

Robots wouldn't be so stupid. It would be much more logical to bring a gun to the knife fight.

I don't understand why those things have a good and evil switch in the first place.
I wonder how many times the camera caught paint drying in that lab?

Do you know how I know you aren't a peeping tom? lol
Maybe it's meant just to help you get over ditches, crevasses and busy highways that you come across in your travels
Look Ma, no alien!
To bad they weren't found to be over 2000 years old. Could have called that the original BC bud.
So, it is sort of like the Windows 7 busy cursor. Goes round and round forever.
Can't be Abrams....no lens flares apparent.
It would be a good idea to avoid using the bathrooms....for obvious reasons.
