Letting them fail would have been a disaster. This isn't an Obama thing. Previous administration new it, economist knew it. The problem is banks are allowed to have their fingers in too many pies.
You could have bank collapse and take a whole serious of commodities with it. Five the price up, and/or collapse of several industries. At the time I though they should just fail, but I know some experts in the field, and talking with them gave me some information that made me reevaluate my position.
OTOH, all the loans sold under false pretenses should have the loan done away with and full ownership returned to the person who borrowed.
That would have been a long term market force that would have made the financial institution police themselves in the future.
It's not becasue we don't work hard( 60 hrs does NOT equal working hard), it becasue we have less money over all and a huge wealth disparity. That's the problem.
What good is it being one of the richest, most powerful nation if we have cities that are disasters? If we can't fix out infrastructure? Whole cities get wiped out and very little is done to bring them back? If we have area with people without representation?
"I don't doubt there are people (young, single, apartment renters) who spend 60 hours a week at work, but I suspect that all those 60 hours aren't spent actually producing a work product."
So you argument says 'You don't believe it, and if people say it is happening, it's not happening"
Well done, sharp thinker!
"There's a lot of time spent in IT waiting. Waiting for builds. Waiting for downloads. Waiting for installs, updates, restores, data transfer from box A to box B. And waiting is just one category -- there's yakking with co-workers, Google searches for work-related information that end up in some Wikipedia page 6 times removed from what you started looking for. Trips to the cafeteria, vending machines, smoking cigarettes." Sound like you are projecting you lazy ass onto others.
Who the hell doesn't nothing else while A build is happening? A) Builds are really fast. B) There is documentation to be done C) This isn't 1985. You can build and work on other code. D) Yes, there is some communication between workers. This is a great way to exchange information. So what?
I was in the private Software Industry for over 2 decades. 60 was almost always the norm. In at 8 out at 6. Nights, and weekends. I got sick of it, and went into the public sector; where I am treated like a human being.
Software professions, hell mos IT professionals, should NOT be salary, it should the hourly. Every time that comes up to the IRS, or courts, the courts have agreed. They don't qualify as salary. But the industry like to spread there lies, and misinformation. Of course, the industry is full of moron who think getting together to be treated like a human is evil and socialist.
"..that takes personal offense at the very utterance of a declarative sentence." Yeah. we should let me move on and make decisions with bad information. Nothing says good engineering better then bad data!
None of which has anything to do with litigation or the type of donuts.
" neither intellectual, nor property, nor rights. " don't be daft.
Writing software isn't intellectual? writing a book? making a movie?
Property is something that belongs to someone. IN this case the legal right to distribute works.
Conseptually, It's good and needed. Implementation is a little out of whack, but that's a different issue.
"Audio, Video, and/or Textual information can be represented as a number. To say someone somehow "magically" "owns" ones a particular sequence of bits is asinine.
That reasoning is..well.. stupid.
You can be represented as a number, does that mean you have no rights?
Oh, and it's not the number, it's the actual work.
They are open. In fact, if you got off the high horse, brushed the chip off your shoulders, and then read those agreement you might note that this is actually a very good thing.
They are taking step to prevent the manufacturers from using the apps to limit the users.
I think you need to get over it. You seem hostile. Nothing in this agreement can be construed as 'evil' by any rational person. In fact, there are clauses specifically in there to prevent others from being 'evil'.
BTW: It's that language that makes women uncomfortable, grow up.

No, be SURE it's in ear shot.
His point is it should be the norm, not the exception.

Get a hobby? Vacation doesn't need to mean sit around and do nothing.
Build something.
we aren't anymore.

by 'all the time' you mean 7 months a year? right?
They don't do it all the time, and they get summer off.

You are the ass.
I've know a lot of really food engineering managers.
I've know a lot of really bad ones as well.
Managing includes a set of soft skills, as well as not being passive aggressive. So you need those skills as well as engineering understanding.
Strikes again!
supposed to be boycotting?
I guess linux isn't open becasue I can put Windows kernel code in it.
I don't know how to write it more simple then " It's that language that makes women uncomfortable"
Which word is too long or hard for you?
"you can't put any other third party search or location services other than google"
You absolutely can. you can not modify the Google apps.
Actually, that's a valid way to use wood screw. Hammer then in, turn them out.
". shapes are wildly different"
no, they aren't. most of them a slightly different. Plus the font is identical.
The argument is that King used his lawyers to make 'Candy' a trademark name and stop preexisting entities from using it.

Hedley Lamarr: Qualifications?

Hedley Lamarr: You said rape twice.
Applicant: I like rape.
I hope a crusher company crushes King.
Except it's not usually 2 bucks. It's usually something like 19.99 or 349.99
Incorrect. It must just pain you when things go well simply do to good design.
Even if you were correct, you are not, it would Still Be a Design Goal to get there.
or the writer got lucky.

Remember, it' about apps, not android.

It does not. Of course the Sherman act isn't a law, so you can't violate it as such. It's what and when the government should look at trust issues.
