The Internet worked on the assumption that a provider would be both a content source and sink. Comcast is just a sink. It doesn't have to worry about its behavior damaging its ability to distribute content on the Internet, as it has virtually none. Yes, I know that some people host on Comcast Business, but that accounts for a small percentage of the traffic flow.
if an engineer, who designed the B52, would have imagined, in their wildest dreams, that the B52 would still be a major weapon of war over 50 years after it was built?
Huge libraries of FORTRAN code have been formally proven. New FORTRAN code can be formally proven. Due the limitations of the language, it is possible to put the code through formal processes to prove the code is correct. In addition, again, as a benefit of those limitations, it is very easy to auto-parallelize FORTRAN code.

Here is a sample to give you some inspiration:
"It has become time to classify Internet Service Providers as Title II Common Carriers. The possibilities for abuse are just too great otherwise. Failure to do so will cripple the future economic well being of the United States, stifle innovation, and limit the freedom of consumers to choose the content they desire."
Unfortunately, non-profit hospitals are, in many cases, a sham. Yes, the "hospital" is losing money, while all the doctors working there are pulling in substantial incomes at the same time.
I guess you have not been paying attention to the drought in the Central Valley of California. You will, when food prices shoot through the roof this summer.

My HP-97 is still running like a champ.
For quite some time now, according to data from the NCTA:

"Now it's possible that Russia is so corrupt that there's no meaningful difference between Putin's money and the government's money."
How else do you think Putin attained a net worth of $70B?
the other white meat.
Ideal for a quick layover when exploring the back waters of the Milky Way.
The probability of it being a friendly encounter has got to be pretty low. I am not sure we will ever be ready.
You can still change this!

I was going to write exactly this, but you beat me to it. 2 days if we were lucky.
wasn't so downright negligent in their race to adopt new technology, most of the problem would not exist.
Gary's contributions in the early days of microcomputing were very significant. Few have contributed nearly as much.
Unfortunately, non-profit hospitals are, in many cases, a sham. Yes, the "hospital" is losing money, while all the doctors working there are pulling in substantial incomes at the same time.
My HP-97 from 1978 is still working fine. Time for some new rubber on the card loader, though.
Of course it is Liberal, anything having to do with facts or science is Liberal these days.
Not a single security exploit reported in over 50 years.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... Tinney's image was a logical evolution from this.
Intelligently designed vaccines.
That's what we said about 1984.
This will become a more common occurrence. Why do you think the rich want to spend so much more on Police and the Military?
Which is still minuscule when compared to the chances of dying in an auto accident.

A great move in a difficult situation.
