The fact that most people actually WANT a government able to do something instead of a libertarian warlord-dominated hellhole leads - by means of democratic structures - to what we have. You can decry that as stupid, but that only shows your position regarding democracy.
What "tax-payers dollars"? Patent office is self financed, suing someone incurs significants costs to pay for the proceedings. Where again is the taxpayer paying?
It's always the same with the libertardians and their ilk: "I haven't thought it through (and you can't make me, that woudl be SLAVERY), also, I am an idiot and have no intention of thinking things through - therefore: THINGS BAD AND EVIL!!!!
No, they didn't. They just randomly murdered people they considered genetically inferior. There is a wee bit of a difference between genocide and genetic optimization, no?
Anyway, I suggest we hold this discussion until the "personhood at conception"-idiots finally died out....
And that, in a nutshell, is the whole fallacy of the "small government" retards. Instead of your proposal - intelligently optimizing - they go for the nuclear solution. From orbit. No matter if that leaves us with a completely deregulated robber baron economy dropping the whole middle class into wage slavery - but hey, that's the holy market. Small gubbermint, yeah!
Patent engineers and attorneys also are people. If I would make a comment regarding the judge smoking crack in an ongoing trial, I'd get my ass kicked. Hard. Not working in the US, though, so perhaps that is customary over there together with the weird legal folklore of having patent cases decided by juries.
I'd say it's part of due diligence to rather provide too many witnesses than too few. Besides, if I was involved in a case with a judge making such an utterly unprofessional comment, I'd sure as hell challenge him for prejudice.
Punch cards and old. My arse is older than that. At least it feels like it.
Throughout history, the most reliable data storage has been fired clay tablets. Get some clay, an arduino, stepper motors and assorted crap and a kiln. Build an automated cuneiform printer. Code for eternity.
You may also paint your code on the walls of a cave with a suitable microclimate. Should be good for a couple of 10k years.
We have seen a southward shift of the Jet Stream during summertime for the last couple of years, which leads to increased rainfall over UK. You better get used to it, this seems to become the new normal - Faroer/Iceland-style summers for you guys, sorry.
I didn't say that I personally didn't find it depressing. The intended message contains a discernible sliver of hope, but I, in fact, do find it depressing, if just for the fact that the only hope presented is rooted in catholic theology.
That is not close to a correct synopsis. I am as atheist as they come, but you cannot understand this book without the religious references. It all hinges on the final scene, when during the nuclear attack, the second head of the tomato saleswoman awakens. And refuses communion.
8 o'clock on Saturday, down at the monument in the English Garden. Let me know who'll be your second and your choice of weapons. I do have a nice pair of dueling pistols here, if you should be so inclined.
Einstein, however, did not have an esteemed career as batshit crazy opinion whore for sale to the highest better, as does Watts. It has nothing to do with him not being established, him not being established has everything to do with his history of outright lies and unscientific behaviour and outright slander of the whole climate science community.
No credentials like, say, a PhD in physics, multiple peer-reviewed publications in Annalen der Physik? You are not seriously comparing Watts to Einstein, no?
It would be zero-carbon if we wouldn't put a shitload of petroleum derived fertilizers, pesticides and transportation fuels into its production. In its current form, corn ethanol is only slightly less unsustainable than using oil in the first place.
Utter stupidity, hateful strawmen and sneering condescension born out of an echo-chamber reinforced overblown feeling of self-worth. The holy trifecta of the modern right wing, it seems.

No, libertarians are not legalizing against minorities - they just want all legislation prohibiting their persecution gone. Lovely guys.

On the grounds of "you say so"? Right.

Nice work. I see the outlines of the motion right there :D

Most of the books the Holy Order of St. Leibowitz preserved where committed to memory by monks during the times of the book burnings.
Yo dawg, i heard you like to wing it, so I put wings on your wings, so you can wing it while you wing it?

Wouldn't piss on an EggMcMuffin if it was on fire. You can, however, take my animal protein from my cold dead hands ;)
Because they actually understand science, in contrast to, well, others..., no?

Borehole reconstructions are routinely done and consistent with other proxies as well as with the instrumental surface record.

I thought I was the only one... Try this...
