There ain't too many Gs-15s. In the corporate world, they would be like SVPs. Most of the technical and engineering people are GS-12 to 13 outside of DC, and 13-14 inside DC.
I would have to think through my minimal physics training that a full beer bottle would be more effective in a bar fight then an empty one. Assuming there is a cap on the bottle. If the cap is off, all bets are off.
"not that they can't make you implement one." If you know your auto legislation, there are very very very few cases of laws being applied retroactively. The classic car industry have a pretty powerful lobby. Why do you think cash for clunkers stopped at 1984? Check out: http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-clunkers13-2009aug13,0,6098269.story No legistlation for seat belts in cars that did not come with them, same for air bags, leaded fuel, emissions, and so on.
"Of course, one a tipping point for electric cars is reached, gas is going to start to rise, and then become less and less available."
So demand drops and prices go up? better brush up on your economics.
"you can feel that way but it's false. You can get a car that's mostly(90+%) recycled, and developed in plants that are extremely clean."
How about the energy to recycle? Steel doesn't melt itself? How about the energy to get the parts where you need them to be for assembly, then the car where you need it? Why melt a working car to build a new working car?
Then what about the economic cost of selling a usable car for less then its worth?
"Because maintenance and repairs has no impact on the environment?"
This is why I drive a 25+ year old car. No black box, no emissions in PA, and I suspect no milage tax in the future due to the difficutlies to implement.
Plus, by keeping it on the road, I feel like im saving the environment by not spending all the energy and materials for to build a new car. I also keep at least one mechanic employed for about 1/4th of a year for maintenance and repair.
So the FCC has started looking into unfair business practices of cell providers. This could be a smoking gun. A 100% legal unbundled phone that will only support tethering on a single providers network, that previously did support tethering.
"...it could create lower-frequency terahertz radiation." Isn't tera 10 to the 12th? Would that not be high frequency radiation? It sits between Microwaves and Infrared.
The Kaminisky bug is real, and its being used out in the wild. This is not a hypothetical academic exercise. DNS needs to be secured. Its not fear mongering, and its not for profit.
Many of these security consultants you speak of are not consultants at all, but experts working on this stuff in their free time for the betterment of the internet.
sure the NSA can probably crack PGP, but if every one used it, the NSA would not have the capacity to crack every message, forcing them to target communication, which is what they should be doing in the first place.
The last 3 jobs I've had, HR has sent me a pile of papers to sign when I started. Among the pile were papers for non-compete and giving up my right to software I have written.
All I did was forget to turn them in. All three times no one said a word.
Another option is what my friend did with a very large company, redline and initial things you will not agree to and then sign it. Hand it in. He said that his HR never even looked at it.
Of course keep a copy of anything you do sign and turn in.
So your a Senator of one of the largest oil producing states, an you hire an oil services company to renovate your house, instead of say, a home builder.
I dare you to find a public servant's computer with out porn in it. I'm pretty sure computer shipped to the government by contract are to come with porn.
I call BS. The USN knew exactly where the Thresher when down as if failed durring monitored sea trials, and knew that the Scorpion didn't go down in the North Atlantic.
From my experience EE would be the best of both worlds. Only EEs could take Comp Sci, Comp Eng and EE classes. Comp Eng could take some EE but not all, and Comp Sci, forget about it, all they did was learn how to write a bubble sort.
Um, I'm pretty sure Franklin established that lightning was electricity. He established the difference between positive an negative charge,conservation of charge, cooling by evaporation, insights into meteorology and ocean currents.
Was he as important as Maxwell, Volta, and others in the field of electricity? Probably not, but he was on the very forefront of electricities exploration, those other guys insights came way later.
While Frankin is covered in schools in the US its mostly due to his contributions in our founding, with the science as an aside.
My public school science education did not seem American centric to me, it seemed science centric. The discovers of the theories had very little time devoted to them, it was thier end result that was important.
As for "Man's basic understanding of the physical universe" and the US's cntribution to it, your comment is pretty fucking stupid.
A quick check is that US scientist have been awarded over 300 Nobels, while the UK: about 100, France: 54, Germany: 100.
Also for a long time the Nobels were considered Euro-centric.
Einstein had his cosmological constant idea in the US, which he later discounted, but may turn out to be correct if the Higgs boson is proven to exist.
Here is a little flame bait back.. What did Europe do with all the theory it developed? Not much.
telegraph, telephone, transistor, integrated circuit, electronic computer, internet, DNA, MRI, atomic bomb (yea some were europians but I'm talking implementation of theory), airplane, geosynchronous orbit, moon landing; all American.
IF its open I use it. If you don't want me to use it put a password on it.
When I set up my WiFi I know full well that if there isn't a password, other people will use it.
I lived in a large apartnemt complex that was mostly college students. I could see about 20 open wi-fi systems.
Frequently they would be unprotected and often they were stepping on my frequencies. I did them the favor of configuring, changing the channel and passwording the systems for them.
Here in DC, when the beltway is backed up, so is everything else. No amount of directions will solve the problem, there are too many cars and too few roads.
I have the Navigon 7100 which gets traffic updates, and durring rush hour(s) there is no way out of it, everything goes red.

I wouldn't want to work for a company who saw that as a black mark. Are you friends nut bag rightwing religious fundamentalists?
All emails from my "bank" get filtered right into the trash. It its important, they will call or send a letter.

The parts have been made, the cost has been paid.
Well, since gps in phones are killing the GPS makers, they needed to find a reason to start selling them again.

Tell me mr energy company shill, where do the people with solar panels get there energy at night?
Thats right the connection to the grid, and they are pay you for the electricity.
This is not how the kraminisky bug works. You can intercept and redirect traffic with a properly formed DNS label to a legitimate site.
