  1. Oops! Are there MANY Africans involved in the CA DMV?? That explains it. I dislike Uber for a number of reasons. The objective one is observing in the nights that save taxicabs there is almost no transit in the streets, so taxicabs are just noise not letting me assess how crowded or ghost town a city night is. Taxicabs seem to be doing a covering lately (all points covered at regular intervals, no random interval without taxicabs showing up, etc.). I feel it dangerous, and then they have many Indians (a kind of Africans) driving, so it is double dangerous. This gives me the impression there was NOT a conflict of interests between Uber and the DMV BUT between Uber administration AND the public vs Uber workers AND the DMV. We want self driving cars, in fact if ALL cars were self driven... I am sure cyclists can be handled different ways and they will STILL cause accidents because cycling is freeer movement than car driving.

    This is standard save-of-face. The assumption is that there ARE such x and y and z observation YET to be observed, and new at that. But as we advance degrees of freedom go down. I like particularly the black matter idea, but it is still sounding like all explaining Aether that cannot be felt, cannot be seen, but it explains _it_ well... I see dangers in both lack of consistency and full consistency, because we CAN have a set of theories supporting each other and still be missing the point. The point here does not seem to be a scientists matter but a matter for meta-scientists, because as far as I could see the drive does have some theory behind (EM theory proper), so what is missing is an encompassing theory, not a working theory. No one is yet using Einstein technique of jumping up to a(n intuited) principle then falling down with explanations and matches. Can we be VERY sure a Chinese working EmDrive is a real proof of facts or just a ploy to attract people in and maybe hide some budgets for a while in all sides before it all ends in just an accumulation of errors? What did you say are the predictions of theory+EmDrive we have to be looking for?

    But we are still not yet experiencing the benefits of emdrives. Think like biologists do, in vitro is not the same as in vivo. In vivo is to have it working and running, in vitro is just any lab. I see very suspicious that China copied this discourse also and has it all confirmed and nearly working but Occident discoverer is just asking for smooth theory and frowning. I did grow up when these kind of Science Fiction news were classified material and the core of a thriller novel and governments were always involved and the big public unaware, so these news make me feel uncomfortable. Arent we losing some kind of technological career again and again and again? Or since when these kind of block careers are no longer relevant? I do not think this helps give credibility to the drive existence but rather makes it all suspicious its turned into a budget area very similar to what happened with convenient-AIDS research for which there is not yet a cure nor vaccine but only some PrEP (surprise!), after all those millions... See how we not only fell behind in technology but ALSO theory lost credibility? Theory was the Reason we were Occident and China a place lost in Communism! Technology was the Reason we were Modern and China was Antiquity in extenso! NASA at least should be running like crazy about this, on pure chauvinist reasons. It is how this whole shebang happened ad was _started_. No guarantee modern state of affairs will lead to something BETTER and not a step behind.

    I see... that is schizophrenia rampant. These guys do not understand it is no secret and it is no mystery world nor an alternate Universe. I think they signed some paper, right? There is also a distinction between bona fide and ill will, when propagating information. But what these people do want is to keep taking value away from Google, or decapitalizing it, which is NOT good for a company that is expected to continue into the future and some day be inherited. They must have a hidden agenda if willing to get such values off the place then keep working on it, but such is schizophrenia: take value out and away, disintegrate it till you reach zero...

  10. Re:So Twitter is now actively doxing people? on Twitter Will Hand Over Data On the User Who Sent a Seizure-Inducing Tweet To a Journalist (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    I have a different interpretation: all these people are schizophrenics. The video is not seizure inducing but was confirming the journalist *heard* something specific, and the realization it was an objective signal induced some shock, so he is naturally blaming the video, not the facts. The person who sent it MAY have been hearing the same messages, or be the one who was being *heard*. In the first case there is no problem, they will ALL go against the source of the signal and will probably miss it. In the other case, whoever sent the video is in trouble because schizophrenics are very stubborn believing if they suppress some people they will be **cured**, which is not possible and for many not even desired, and they will not miss because the system was de-ex-centrified purposefully, but still the sender can deceive them into believing it was not him who is the source. In any case, court will bring in even more schizophrenics who may tuned or not, but at least the sender can prevent some volunteer schizophrenic (twitter s?) from sending himself against the sender just on pure positive tropism...

    People are hunting people with all kind of smart witty arguments and maneuvers, but I am finding acquaintances and relatives in those sites I would not find any other place, as well as information I would have been denied but for rumors and lies. Information suppressing is not the solution, never. Problem is, there is now way to locate the people in there! THAT is what a bill should ENSURE: the means to contact credibly the people in videos and pictures. There are ways to handle the issue with procedures so that information flows, because it is not ALWAYS about having the same sex movie enacted in your life.
