I can provide a link to Chicago's law stating bicyclists don't need licensure. All I'm asking is that if you want me to believe somewhere else does (nowhere I've ever lived has) that you provide some evidence of this claim.
Try flying with custom/prototype electronics (I was, for a while, couriering updated versions of a prototype transmission control unit back and forth between Chicago and Detroit). The best was when I was going down for a day trip (in in the morning, out in the evening) and my carry on contained:
One (1) portable oscilloscope. Two (2) scope probes. One (1) prototype TCU, with wires hanging out of it all over. One (1) cable harness for said TCU. Laptop.
And that was it. No clothing, no toiletries, just a bunch of electronics.
This TCU, for the record, was just a black metal box filled with electronics. I cannot imagine it looked like anything more or less than an explosive device to paranoid security screeners when it was being x-rayed.
I'm not aware of any states that won't rescind that fine if you supply proof of licensure; the ticket is provisional (much like the tickets for failure to provide proof of insurance and certain mechanical difficulties, like a dead tail light) - if you provide proof within X (usually 30) days that you have a license, insurance, etc, the fine is dropped.
Religion is not a visible quality, and Israel is a fairly multi-ethnic society. There isn't really auto-screening.
It probably does help that each and every one of those air marshals was a member of the Israeli armed forces, though; I don't believe there's a similar requirement here in the US.
Oh, come on. In Florida they know it doesn't matter if the kids can drive well or not, since all the grannies make the roads more dangerous than the kids could ever dream of.
(I have lived in Florida. I know of what I speak.)
I carry a driver's license. However, *every* friend of mine who doesn't possess a driver's license (for varying reasons, ranging from medical reasons to no desire to have one - being that I live in a city with usable public transit, that's not that uncommon) has valid state ID or a passport. An epileptic is likely to have one or the other; how many circumstances can you think of that require ID that don't involve driving? I can think of quite a few, ranging from purchasing cigarettes/alcohol to, in some places, using a credit card.
His disability has nothing to do with him having, or not having ID, and your assertion does not make it so - an epileptic is *not* excused from having to identify himself, and as such there is no valid ADA claim. If the requirement was for a "driver's license", the epileptic would have a legitimate beef, but an epileptic has no significant difficulty in obtaining ID as compared to a non-epileptic; go down to the Sec. State with adequate documentation, request a state ID, and you're set.
No, he was saying that if an epileptic weren't allowed to fly, he could sue under ADA. Which might be true, if the epileptic were denied flight because they were epileptic, but he was just being an idiot and assuming that saying "I'm an epileptic" immediately before denial of flight privilege (interestingly enough, privilege comes from 'private law' - exactly the issue we are discussing here) would be enough to get an ADA case made.
Basically, he was an idiot, but not for quite the reason you're thinking.
That guy cannot have, in good conscience, voted for either major-party candidate. There's a difference between sacrificing on minor issues and selling out on core ideals; voting R or D for that fellow would have been the latter, judging from his list.
TSA agents, who are *government* employees, are telling him he has to show ID because it's the law.
Airline officials are *not* saying that this is company policy; they are saying it is US law.
He is asking to see said law. No one will show it to him. Private laws are *not* something we should be saying "Oh, well that's okay then" towards; they lead in exactly the wrong direction.
Adults aren't any different; put them in a room without a TV, they can have interesting conversations. Put them in a room with a TV, and watch those conversations end as everyone's head turns to the TV.
You'd better stay the fuck off the highways then, because they don't meet everyone's needs. Don't even think about going to a public park, unless you want to be a hypocrite. Don't expect the cops to help you, the fire department to save your burning house, the sanitation department to get your trash, all because it doesn't meet your needs...
Nothing meets everyone's needs. We all pay for the social system because it's better than the alternative.
In the state of Michigan, the per-pupil support figure is usually quoted as around $8k per year, so that's $104k right there for K-12. You're not getting screwed as badly as you seem to think.
Especially since you won't be working for 62 years, unless you plan to work into your 80s. Even being generous an assuming you retired at age 71, I get $40,000, and thus a total (using your 30%) of roughly $120,000, which would imply that there's 15% overhead in that money paid; not the best, but not out of the question, more so when you consider how much slop there is in this estimation. And hey, if you have more than one kid, you'll come out ahead!
I'm sorry your school district sucks, but many of them don't. Find one of those.
Jamaican culture, you insignificant fuck, uses the word "riddim" to denote the basslines and drum beats that are used and re-used as backing tracks for vocalists.
Grand parent was correct, and you are a twat. A very, very dim-witted twat.
Actually, most of the hip-hop kids at the shows I go to know about the album. May not know about mashups, but they know about the record. Most of the indie rock kids at those shows know too, pretty much because they're indie rockers and knowing about semi-obscure things is what they do. Basically, a pretty good portion of dedicated music fans are aware of the record, and a decent portion of those like it.
I'd say it succeeded quite well based on that. That, and the fact that its about ten times as good as the Jay-Z record he took the vocals from.
Embedded sometimes does have OS overhead, for the record.
That said, we still do *not* write processor-specific code for the main program, unless we absolutely have to. Any processor-specific init code is shunted into a seperate init file. For a lot of projects, it winds up being cheaper to just pay a couple extra cents per chip in order to not have to pay the programmers a ton of money to optimize. Maybe if you're working on a 5c processor you have to, but that's increasingly rare these days.

I got some *strange* questions.
Airport security screeners are government employees. TSA, baby, TSA!
Name one. Provide a link to the relevant law, if possible.

Buying cigarettes and whiskey both require ID.
Walking into a live concert venue may or may not require ID, depending on if its all-ages or restricted.
There are lots of reasons to have ID.

Sopranos. The Wire. Oz.
How many people subscribe to HBO these days, again? The market just isn't on the networks anymore.
You would be correct, except:

Airline officials are *not* saying that this is company policy; they are saying it is US law.

I understand that you're not a fan of the Democrats, but given your stance, how the hell can you be in favor of Bush either?

$150-200K.

There's a difference between having an exam in your course and taking credits by examination.
Good.
Funny, I think the people at the library would disagree (as would I) - there's still a hell of a lot more information in books than on the Internet.
Nyquist can't do it on his own. Nyquist can tell you your sampling rate; you'll need to add Shannon for sampling depth.

I still like "translator" for software mimics software implementations, as opposed to "emulator" for software mimics hardware.
