There is the right of free association, and the right of contract. The joint-stock corporation as we know it today is a government creation, but the same terms could be obtained through contract with any parties doing business with a corporation.
Not they can't.
Not having all the business income count as personal income for someone can't be done with private contracts between the owners and those doing business with them.
Limited Liability can't be created with such contracts either, since it applies to parties not doing business with the corporation (their neglegence does damage to me, no contract they've signed with those doing business with them is going to stop me from claiming against the owner's assets, for example).
Because the US was business friendly then, moving stuff elsewhere would have been stupid. Now, however, the US has changed to being highly regulated which might be good for the people (though that's certainly arguable) but is certainly bad for business.
"Do I setup my public company where I need to meet Sarbanes-Oxley rules? Or where I don't?". "Do I setup where taxes are high? Or where they aren't?". "Do I build the factory where I have to meet environmental regulations? Or where I can dump toxic waste in the river upstream of the town?".
Your forgetting opportunity cost. If the investment they make produces less profit than the same investment would produce in some other area of their business, then it was a bad move - from a "make as much money as possible" point of view anyway.
But I agree that CISCO isn't doing anything obviously stupid with this, they have a good chance of making a dent in the market.
NNs have the huge draw back that when you find a situation in which the AI does something completely ridiculous that ruins the game it's really hard to fix especially if you need to ship soon. Your small tweak will likely mess with some other situation. This is more likely in a video game than in a game like checkers since there's more factors at play (interaction with the path finding, etc).
Backgammon is a better example than checkers. TD-Gammon not only plays the game very well, but changed the way people play the game. There were a number of situation where it played differently than the traditional expert recommendation of the best play, and it's play is now the one the experts use.
Some games won't be so great at the "learning by playing against itself" NN approach. Anything in which getting stuck in a loop is reasonable will be problematic since the if the game doesn't end there's no result to learn from. In an RTS, this might be the case where you can build a defensive structure that is effectively impenetrable, neither one is going to win even though it could be the optimal strategy (if not losing is the goal, as opposed to winning).
Especially when they couldn't enter my number into the damn computer to call me when a table was ready because my phone number was foreign and hence required a country code that the form didn't like.
There are lots of laws that require you to do more dangerous things than you would otherwise - that doesn't mean they are there so that people will break them and hence be easy to arrest. It just means the powers than be have decreed the costs (probably yours) worth the benefits (probably theirs).
And since some vehicles are speed limited and accidents happen causing people to have to slow down I suspect you'll manage to drive at the speed limit without being read ended as soon as you leave the on-off lane.
Of course he could have also been studying and working on assignments instead of downloading crappy movies and infringing on the copyright rights of those that hold them.
Well aside from the fact that it's not difficult to drive under the speed limit. But you'd really have to do without essentially all modern technology (including driving that car you aren't speeding in) to not be in control of a device emitting RF.
But the point is correct anyway, there are so many laws that there's a 0% chance you haven't broken one in the last week.
Except that when I have that grouping by site makes little sense.
There's a slashdot article, the link from the article (no, seriously), maybe some additional links open, maybe a wikipedia page if something was interesting enough, a google search page and maybe a couple of result pages open if it was *really* interesting.
Then there's a google maps page, a google search page, some real estate lising pages.
Then a bugzilla page, a calendar, some task pages, a google search page, some search result pages, maybe some mailing list archive pages, and the damn documentation for the obscure library function I actually was looking for.
The groupings are not by site, they're by activity with multiple overlapping sites in each activity. Of course at some point multiple browser *windows* makes sense...
That's clearly an artifact of lazy mock up screenshot generation. Screenshot of browser, move the web page part across a bit and stick in the new "frame". Note, no scrollbar at the bottom.
There is a minimum width gmail requires to not scroll horizontally, but that's google's fault (since it's bigger than what is actually needed).
It is too wide in that mock up, but usually there's more space across than up/down - though my browser is in a pane that is 837x1028...
If you bother to RTFA you'll see it isn't a netcraft server count, but a mention in their SEC reported earnings something they are unlikely to just make up.
The comparisons are with netcraft numbers. And those netcraft numbers are explicitly not IP address counts and have rackspace as way under 50,000 (which you would expect since many machines wouldn't be web servers (database backends, mail servers, etc) and many would be firewalled to not allow public access.
And given that the population of New York is 20 million that's less than $20 a week per person or under 5% of the per capita income (given a household average of $53k and an average household size of 2.6).
Slashdot Mirror
Bullshit.
I've heard many native English speakers who have never set foot in America use "could of"

Could predict todays our current economic difficulties and spend 18 minutes playing with the abacus.

I love those phone number validation forms.
Especially when they couldn't enter my number into the damn computer to call me when a table was ready because my phone number was foreign and hence required a country code that the form didn't like.
Americans would scram if there was Canadian influence in the affairs of external corporations?
Yes very quiet.
That 2006 first nuclear test was when Obama was President.
It's transferring data from a database to a calculation/reporting tool.
It better damn not be needing randomness...
Was anyone talking about "hard"???
They had a warrant, they would take them by force and arrest him as well.
That sounds good. Not sure it's worth upgrading from Ubuntu to Windows in order to run it though...

If the other drivers can't cope with a car on the road slowing down then they're destined to have a pile up when someone has mechanical issues.
Might as well speed up getting rid of them.

People like "treats" as such. 90% of what I drink is water (ok, so half of that is has coffee in it...), but I still like a glass of juice...
Are you claiming that a head of lettuce feeds a family of four for two meals? Or agreeing that pasta is cheaper?
Surely that's not the comparison.
The lean meat cuts are significantly more expensive than the 30% fat mince. Pasta is cheaper than vegetables. Soda is cheaper than juice.
Try $20 billion.
And given that the population of New York is 20 million that's less than $20 a week per person or under 5% of the per capita income (given a household average of $53k and an average household size of 2.6).
Go try web browsing in North Korea, let us know if you still feel that way.
