SD cards actually speak four different interfaces, depending on application. You can run them off an SPI interface if you want to, though it's really very slow. It's still a useful trick because a lot of microcontrollers have SPI hardware support (including atmega/arduino) and others can bit-bang it, so you can interface a microcontroller to an SD card with next to no supporting hardware.
The other three modes are all high-speed modes, but require more elaborate electronics.
The pledge opt-out is used by a few religious groups. The Mormon church used to prohibit taking the pledge, but doesn't any longer. The Jehova's Witnesses still do. I'm not clear on the theological grounds, but the JWs have their share of horror stories. Children and teenagers have always loved to pick on those who are different from the group, and refusing to take the pledge marks onesself as an outsider and thus a target for bullying and abuse. There's one case that became quite infamous when a class teacher, Anne Daigle-McDonald, was so offended that one of their students wouldn't take the pledge they physically grabbed the student to force them into the correct pose and informed the class that any student who wouldn't take the pledge should move out of the country. The parents had to threaten legal action to get the teacher suspended - and there was such an outpouring of support from local patriots for the teacher that they were given a slap on the wrist and returned to teaching five days later.
Four in the declaration - and zero in the constitution, unless you count the date. Religion is only even referenced twice: Once to forbid religious tests for office, and once in the first amendment.
There is some debate about where french fries were invented.
Pizza has been reinvented twice. And swiss cheese is American. It was just named swiss cheese because it bears a similarity to some actually swiss cheese.
I can see certain niche applications. Think of street lights that can call for new bulbs. But they are niches - a lot of the IoT fuss is just pure hype.
Broadcom sometimes do this with their USB 802.11n adaptor too. The same model adaptor can come with many different chips in it - if you download the drivers you get a huge bundle of all the drivers it might need, and an installer that makes sure the right one gets used.
The one-time payment approach can only work so long as the service is growing. Once it is mature you end up with no source of income, and no option but to go subscription or start on advertising. Then you're back where you started.
Given the choice between a free platform and one they must pay for, customers will run towards the free. Possibly they might then move to the paid one if they are very dissatisfied with free, but it won't be their first choice. That's why all of the biggest online services are free-to-use.
It would be difficult to show either way. To minimise potential liability employers rarely actually say why you didn't get the job - I've been turned down for many jobs, and all I ever got were vague 'your application was not successful' letters.
Nice idea in principle, but there will be lots of political bickering - with that much government involvement you can bet more than a few congresspeople will want to show their pro-family credentials by mandating anti-pornography filtering on any government-funded network.
Crisis Pregnancy Centers exist to give women a very firm push towards making the decision the center operators want her to make, and they aren't above the use of deception or emotional manipulation to achieve that goal.
Wikipedia lacks citations. Raw Deal may have citation, but I'd have to buy it to find out. The Economist article has no citation, and specifically describes the story as "apocyphal." This site does seem to have done a little research into it, with lots of citations. http://quoteinvestigator.com/2...
The earliest reference to the story is differently worded ("Fords" not "cars") and describes an exchange between Reuther and an unnamed Ford manager, not Mr Ford himself as some later versions say. Later retellings continue to embellish and reword. Even when Reuther personally retold the story it changed slightly each time.
This suggests that there may have been an encounter that started the story, but it is almost certainly did not involve Ford himself and all other elements of the story should be considered as possible but unreliable. It might be even be an encounter that Reuther made up entirely - he never stated the name of the person he was speaking to or the date of the encounter, and there is no known witness aside from himself.
"Now McDonalds is out of business because any fool can buy one and put it on a corner."
The food retail industry would lobby for extensive health-and-safety and hygiene regulations requiring all food retailers apply for a license that costs $5,000 a year and be subject to frequent inspections to ensure they comply with frequently-changing rules. Only government-certified food processing robots will be allowed, which will undergo extensive and expensive testing to ensure their price never falls below $30,000. One way or another a high barrier to entry will be maintained.
That's how the farming industry worked to squeeze out small farms.
The economics doesn't work. If the robots required as many jobs to build and maintain as they replaced then they wouldn't be viable. They are only possible economically because they replace a large number of low-skill jobs with a small number of high-skill jobs. The factory robot might take a few thousand man-hours to build and maintain, but it'll replace a few hundred thousand man-hours of unskilled labor. Even if all those ex-employees retrain, there wouldn't be enough jobs for them all - the most they could do is drive engineering wages down to minimum wage too.
Lots of things are illegal but still commonplace and largely socially acceptable. Perhaps this indicates the law is in need of revision to better reflect changes in society.
Moderate down all you want. I don't agree with the views explained above, I just understand them well enough to try to explain how that manner of thinking works.
My house is thirty years old. There's a constant slow drip of water down the side due to a failed washer in the cold water tank ballcock. The washer can't be replaced because the valve after thirty years is a sculpture of copper oxide and is sure to crumble to dust on any attempt to access the washer, so even the simple mechanical things do fail. That's why plumbers do house calls.
One day it will be replaced, but there are certain family conflicts currently preventing it. That strange quirk of usually-male psychology which considers calling an expert to be an admission of one's own inadequacy.

Kids can opt out in any school. It just serves as a signal for the other kids to beat up the traitor after school.

DOS conventions can be broken, but what about earlier Windows versions accessing the drive via network share? Could create serious problems there.

Dick.
No.
Any unbiased article on abortion would be attacked as biased by both sides. They don't even use the same terminology.

Thirty seconds of googling shows that almost certainly never happened.

How about a younger generation that no longer accepts that information can be owned in the same way as physical property?
Lots of things are illegal but still commonplace and largely socially acceptable. Perhaps this indicates the law is in need of revision to better reflect changes in society.
And thus publishers of conspiracy theories, hyperbole and general crankery feel unfairly treated because Facebook is suppressing their stories.
Is there even such a thing as unbiased news?
Simple fact-checking becomes a bias if one political faction tends to lie more than the other.
Even striving to be unbiased can itsself be a form of bias.
