Recidivism rates are high for a reason. Until there are special tax credits for businesses to hire convicts (similar to hiring vets), his life is pretty much over.
Not to mention the potential military application of some of these software... no wonder why DHS was involved.

And to the eye's of a normal MBA, this is same as "laziness". It does take some extraordinary management skills to activate these people, at least for STEM PhD's are concerned. Liberal Arts PhD's are much easier to motivate, they willing to do a lot for cheap.

The Octopus Card is a contact-less card used for payments on stores and public transit, and a large number of schools and companies as a mean of tracking check-in / check-outs and attendance issues in various countries since 1997.

This kid (and their family) probably has listen too much to Alex Jones.
and also those who have the most DEBT will benefit the most, as the debt drops in NPV (net present value) because of their relatively-fixed interest rate.
The law specifically defines the dimension and denomination of coins made of gold, silver and palladium, along with the composition of base (common) coins that are going for circulation. It happens that they didn't define such constraints with platinum in particular.
I am sure some sort of GPS is inside the coin. If not, we know that there is only one such coin per the government. If someone go shopping at their local Neiman Marcus or Tiffany & Co. , the first thing we will know is either:
#1. The coin is stolen. #2. The coin is counterfeit.
Either case warrants a call to the Secret Service.
Nobody was taking PCS (Platinum Coin Seignorage, the semi-official name of this loophole) seriously, but once this guy come up and say he is trying to propose a bill to ban PCS, everybody is looking at it and come to the conclusion that this might be a legitimate option.
You are not getting food or fuel at the right place.
You are not clipping coupons.
You are not exploring available options such as SNAP or food pantries.

As for boot time, not everyone is using SSDs. Back in windows 7 it takes about a minute for a pair of WD velociraptor raid-0 to boot it up. In Win 8 it takes 20 seconds, catching up with SSD speeds while having a much larger real estate.

Slavery is banned by the 13th amendment.

Lying is saying one thing had happened but in fact another thing had happened.
Omission is not lying.
People are ignoring or not willing to admit, but politics is where the real big money is.
