If one of these rockets comes crashing down on your head, you sure as hell aren't going to want the launcher to have special protections. And, if the shit comes down, a trial lawyer is going to be your only weapon against the megacorporations financing these launches.
IMO they seem to be an attempt to wipe history from the books and give everyone their kumbaya moment to hold hands and pretend everything is hunky dory. Unless the offended party is still alive, leave them on the books as a lesson to our children of what can happen when government exceeds its bounds.
Yeah, I'm a hard-core liberal and I just don't see what people think is going to happen (or no longer happen) with a new assault weapons ban. My dad is retired Army and said they used to use 22 rounds for practice I think with M-16s. It really doesn't sound like what this guy was using was such an exotic weapon.
I figured objects getting so close would be a very infrequent occurrence and at that range gravity would surely pull the object into us. I'm not sure if it's good news that objects have to get much closer to get sucked in or bad news that we're seeing so many near misses.
It's also doing a fantastic job of brainwashing their people. Lots of them blame the Western world for their problems. There was a NPR story years back where an embed noted that if there's a power outage, the typical reaction from people is to blame it on some anti-infrastructure American campaign. I've always said that dictators are the highest form of politician because they've got to maintain an iron grip on power with nothing as helpful as royal blood or divine right to keep the people on their side. And, usually this is happening with heaps of external criticism.
I just took my ethics final this morning and one of the questions was like this scenario. The professor has a history of incorporating current events; I wonder if this was one and the same.
They have a history of funneling our technology to the highest bidder. My only doubt is usually after they do it they tell our politicians to fuck off or AIPAC will visit your opponent's campaign office next election.
Hmmm, I'll estimate the typical pr0n scene has 1.25 women slightly skewed for gang bangs and FFM scenes. I just calculated the average scene in my collection is 559 MB, so by Stoichiometry:
woman/2 nipples X scene/1.25 woman X 559 MB/scene X 8bits/B X second/1 Billion bits = seconds/nipple = 1.79 seconds/nipple or 0.56 nipples/second. That's impressive, but not quite Burning Man speed.
We don't live in a country where most people are walking past the grocery store daily and grabbing the foods and produce they need for the night. We shop in bulk now because the grocery story probably isn't around the corner and it's so inconvenient to go daily and maybe even weekly. So, now there's a larger window between food purchase and consumption.
Damn, dude! This is as close as a geek's going to get to James Bond-esque international intrigue. I'm picturing him running through the jungle from 5-star hotel to 5-star hotel with a bad super model/actress in tow.
You're assuming that the professor has a doctorate in ethics. Ethical issues of flash trading off the top of my head:
* Flash trading gives companies with instantaneous access to the market an unfair advantage. * Flash trading violates the "spirit" of stock markets by allowing flash traders to exploit price swings not related to market fundamentals. The purpose of stock markets is to place capital in the hands of industry, not game the system. * Flash trading favors extremely well funded organizations that have the resources to create these algorithms as well has throw enough cash or credit at trades designed to profit from minute stock price changes. * Flash trading can be used nefariously to bring companies down. * Flash trading can be used nefariously to prop up overvalued stocks; e.g. the Facebook IPO where the price was held artificially high to allow profit takers to unload their allotments.

I'd quit and do what they said out of pure geek respect for pulling it off!
Well, for a programmer it's more likely to be HTTP; as in downloads for the purpose of "single-entity romance".
...or the biggest problem for me, don't engage in any electronic commerce.
Being #1 isn't some birthright bestowed upon you by God. Once you start taking it for granted and your customers for granted, it's over.
It likes to regift dupe images?

I think a hammer is technically a hash, not encryption.
Very interesting, I just figured there was a lot more force involved.

Yes, I can also write my own PIM and POOM applications and build my own cloud. I'm talking about practicality here, not what's physically possible.
I'm looking to switch to the iPhone largely because of Google's Total Information Awareness information gathering policies.

Writing shitty code in a language isn't a reflection on that language.
Well, the US tends to act like a surrogate government for Israel's interests
I take it you never read one joke
