Of course cops outside of casinos wouldn't do that as it would destroy the local economy. I'm referring to getting pulled over at a traffic stop.
If you get pulled over and a cop finds out that you are carrying $10-20k, there is a likely chance it will get seized. Just google "cash seized on way to buy car". Boats, planes, homes can be substituted for "car".
Then why aren't these people complaining about how easy it is for local law enforcement to obtain a warrant? Why aren't these people complaining about how most companies will voluntarily share customer information with local law enforcement if asked?
Why aren't these people complaining about how civil lawsuits can be used to circumvent the unreasonable search provisions of the 4th amendment?
They names of photos of those arrested aren't "buried" on a department's website.
Police departments also provide the information and photos for newspapers to use in their "police blotter" sections. The newspapers make these available online - just like twitter.
Regardless, cops have always argued against any expectation of privacy.
The miner is volunteering to add nodes to the bitcoin network. No one is requiring it, there is no central authority saying MINE NOW.
Using that bizarre definition of "volunteer", employees of Google are also volunteers since there is no central authority saying that they have to work there or even work at all. The same for a real estate agent listing a property for sale.
Like a real estate agent, the bitcoin miners are not volunteering their services. They're providing the service in the hopes of financial return.
If the cops tweeted out the names of people arrested for crimes they would go ballistic.
Police departments have been publishing photos and names of people arrested on their websites for years. How could you not know this?
Regardless, cops actually get preferential treatment when it comes to due process as it is almost impossible to find a prosecutor that will try to convict a cop - especially not in the same jurisdiction. Even if cops are caught with overwhelming evidence of criminal acts, the usually face firing where non-cops would face years in prison.
Henry Ford was very resistant to adding options to his cars. It had nothing to do with efficiency, but more of a moral outlook.
He felt that options or additional features were wasteful extravagant luxuries. When customers started buying the more feature rich GM cars, he often complained that Americans used to be a frugal people.
Please explain how natural selection cares not about those born as my little brother to a 35 year old mother and a 45 year old father.
The OP didn't mean for the age of 25 to be an absolute maximum.
As humans evolved, having children after the age of 25-30 was pretty rare. The point still stands that longevity beyond reproductive/rearing age is rarely an evolutionary advantage.
As written, the phrase "everyone will get cancer unless they die of something else first" is a tautology and therefore meaningless.
It's not meaningless because you can't say the same thing about other diseases or causes of death. That's why coronary disease and cancer are in a special group.
ATMs don't store meaningful account data. That data is held by the banks and transmitted via the processors. That is why ATMs don't work when they aren't connected to the network during a communication outage.
The game is the same, just with different players. If peers are the ones doing the evaluations (doubtful), a person adept at office politics would thrive. A person with truly exceptional abilities would be at an extreme disadvantage due to other employees feeling threatened by them.
Netflix is basically mimicking the environment of Survivor.
The risk doesn't seem like it would be worth it since it doesn't seem like Netflix has any reliable way to determine who is an A player. Remember, it doesn't matter if a person truly is an "A player" - it only matters if you can convince your superiors that you are.
In an environment like this would be full of backstabbing, sabotage and attention whoring. The A players that are already entrenched have most likely survived due to their office politics guile rather than by merit.
Why would a true A player subject themselves to such an arbitrary and demeaning process?
There is even more incentive for Snowden, Russia and China to lie about it, because it hurts the US.
I think the point is that the reciting of a 555 number is jarring to the viewer because we know it is a special movie/tv thing.
An alternative would be to reword the script to not require a phone number to be recited out loud.
What was her problem with genetics in Gattaca?
Your colleague probably just has the most common commands in "muscle memory". I doubt that he could type a letter very fast at all.

Better not let cops know that you carry that much cash with you or it will get seized.

I think you're missing the point that judges pretty much rubberstamp warrant requests made by local law enforcement.
If you don't understand how big that problem is, you don't understand how American law enforcement and civil litigation works.
Probably because most people have much more to fear from local law enforcement and civil litigation.
NSA, FBI, CIA, other TLAs or the Police, any could show up and DEMAND the information.
Or an subpoena for a divorce case or some other civil case.
Well, until they show up with an NSL, in which case we'll supply the data forthwith. But don't worry, we'll still have to maintain we really don't.
It doesn't take a NSL. A subpoena in a divorce case or a warrant from local law enforcement would be enough.
Why does everyone think that the NSA is the only entity capable of obtaining private data?

Not really sure what point you're trying to make.
I'm am certainly not in favor of "public shaming", but if it is good enough for non-cops, then cops should be subject to it as well.
Do you know why all those financial services commercials on the radio and TV always include "past performance is no predictor of future earnings"?
They have to for legal and liability reasons.
To be clear, I agree with your overall point.

Yes, but at the same time they would be putting most of their friends and peers out of a job.
And saving themselves and their families from a painful death. Which do you think researchers think is more important?
Cash can also be seized by law enforcement. That is why it is dangerous to carry around cash to pay for large purchase.
Any cash that a person carries can be seized by law enforcement - whether they charge you with a crime or not.
