    Oh, and she broke the law, here is the law she broke:

    http://uscode.house.gov/view.x...

    Now the problem is actually prosecuting her for that. She also emailed classified information, it was unmarked, but as an Original Classification Authority, she was one of the people at State that was the source of classification declarations, and so should have known if information should have been classified even when unmarked.

    Except that that was a lie.

    Rice didn't use a public email server, and Powell by all accounts had a public mail account, and a State mail account that he used.

    As Secretary of State, she would be considered an Original Classification Authority. This means that she would be trained in recognizing what should be classified information, and what should be protected.

    http://www.politico.com/story/...

    According to that article, the number of classified emails is in the range of 400. Some of those messages should have been obvious that they were classified, especially for someone who is supposed to be the one determining the classification of information (an Original Classification Authority's job).

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/the...
    http://www.archives.gov/about/...

    Saying that she didn't send or receive any emails marked as classified is a lie of omission. She should have known that certain things should have been classified, so even without the markings (which is likely to land someone in Federal prison), she should be able to identify classified information and handle it properly, including reporting the release of classified information onto her home email server.

    The laws she broke have to do with "Official Records". At the time she did it, it was illegal to not maintain official records. She only handed over the emails later when she was called out on it, but even then, there was a 3 month gap in the records. Can you imagine any possible way that the Secretary of State would not send an official email, or even reply to a work email in three months?

    She also broke the law by emailing classified information on an unclassified email system. This has been proven, she claims the information was not marked classified, but as Secretary of State, she is an original classification authority, meaning she should have known the information was classified, and therefore should have reported the spillage of classified information immdiately, instead of letting it fester for YEARS.

    Also, the server was wildly insecure, this information isn't new, and was on Slashdot previously:

    You can keep your head in the sand if you want, but what she did isn't much different than the crimes hanging over Snowden's head. If it were you or I that did these things, we would be in Jail awaiting a federal trial.

    Even funnier about the classified information thing is that as Secretary of State, she is an original classification authority, which means that even if the information isn't marked classified, she is supposed to be able to say something should be classified.

    She emailed around classified information, and she should have known it was classified, that is a serious felony, and if it were you or I, we would already be in jail waiting for the federal court to hear our case.

    You are correct, I was wrong, it appears that the initial reentry is computer controlled, but after the air braking portion, it is manual control. However, there are still many automated spacecraft such as the cargo haulers and the new X37b that are completely computer controlled. Also, apparently, after Columbia, a remote control option was instituted, but not used, in case the orbiter needed to be brought back without a crew due to risk of death.

    His comparison of other modes of transportation such as space, submarine and airplane, is also flawed.

    Hmm, it sounds like he doesn't know much about space travel and air travel. Planes can now take off, fly, and land all on their own. There are fully automated spacecraft now as well, in fact the shuttle was widely considered to be impossible to manually land as it is pretty much a flying brick.

    the manufacturers are very successfully integrating robotics to tie humans more tightly into the decision making progress

    So the manufacturers are adding things that take the decision making out of the stupid human's hands to more tightly integrate them into not making any decisions?

    All of the automation systems are taking the stupid human out of the picture, not integrating them more. Park assist, accident avoidance, lane departure warning, blind spot warning, backup sensors. None of these more integrate the human, most of them augment the human to prevent them making stupid mistakes.

    If you think I am wrong, prove me wrong. The robot to flip burgers was invented, it is just a matter of time until McDonalds thinks automation is cheaper than people. When they decide that, it means half the people are out of a job.

    When a machine can make the food, you need one less person. The McDonalds in my area put in a fry machine, now there aren't fry cooks. When they replace the person flipping the burgers, and the people making the sandwiches, that is 2-3 more jobs gone. If the machines are setup right, you don't need the front counter person, because that job is easily automated. The only person you will be left with soon is the guy loading food into the machines, and the maintenance technician.

    Apple isn't your typical company. That $200 billion is because Apple knows what it is like in the lean times, so they are saving for those times. Most corporations invest profits into buying new businesses or expanding their existing business as it reaps more profits to do so.

    Walmart pays more than the federal minimum wage. So if you need food stamps on a Walmart paycheck, it is time to improve yourself and find work elsewhere. $9 now, and $10 next Feb (2016), nationwide, is nothing to look down on. In many places, that is the best paying job around.
