  2. The future of people or taxes is in doubt! on Bill Gates: Piketty's Attack on Income Inequality Is Right · · Score: 1

    Automation/Robots will displace human labor; then taxes based on public labor/consumption a/o private enterprise will fail US, EU, RU, CN ..., IMO.

  3. US Congress says, you need work? on One In Three Jobs Will Be Taken By Software Or Robots By 2025, Says Gartner · · Score: 1

    GOPlutocrats' minions in the US Congress and SCOTUS all agree If you need work, drop dead or join the military for the robotic extinction war.

  4. A different path ...? on Why the FCC Will Probably Ignore the Public On Network Neutrality · · Score: 1

    The U$ government, congress, politicians path for the last 40 years has clearly phucked US like prostitutes, without payment, reward, satisfaction, consideration, or even money to buy vibrator batteries. Eventually we will be a nation of illiterate, homeless, diseased, hungry ... People. When you trust a politician, cleric, plutocrat, or bigot you betray all US Folks.

  5. Leon, Please shut-up. on Former Department of Defense Chief Expects "30 Year War" · · Score: 1

    Leon Panetta IMO makes the same mistake that POTUS Chaney and vPOTUS Rove made in the GWB Whitehouse. Fear based analysis of your enemy is a flawed analysis.

    Our enemy can be Sunni-wahhabist, Shia-shurh, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, ISIS ... or Russian, China, French, German hate-fanatics and terrorist .... Fear is the most lethal and dangerous weapon in their arsenal. Politicians, clerics, wannabes ... in the USA, that stress fear, are all chicken-little screaming for falling clouds.

    The greatest military powers that have existed in the world for the past 200 years have not ended US or destroyed The Constitution of US, and very few have been able to injure US. Our enemies have great puffery as do our Politicians, clerics, wannabes ... in the USA, but actually they seek to rule US by fear. FEAR is just a four phucking letter word that has no value to US and our leadership, but does impress foolish enemies of US.

    USA Politicians, clerics, wannabes ... need to grow-up and become leaders for US or they need to shut-the-phuck-up.

  6. MS or MSIE by any other name will stink. on Microsoft Considered Renaming Internet Explorer To Escape Its Reputation · · Score: 1

    MSolutions is the problem. MSIE renamed would be indicative of MS problems. Strict W3C, ISO ... Standards compliance is required.

  7. Many managers are incompetent decision makers. on Companies That Don't Understand Engineers Don't Respect Engineers · · Score: 1

    Software, hardware, science, technology, scientist, engineers, troubleshooters ... internal employees are seldom respected as experts by insecure managers; Hence, managers will contract external resources to support their decisions. The managers’ expert outsourcing provides the point for blame-storming and career-building credits.

  8. Alabama politicians are dumb fucks! on US Senator Blasts Microsoft's H-1B Push As It Lays 18,000 Off Workers · · Score: 1

    U.S. Senate Thursday, Sen. Jeff Sessions "Alabama-GOP" insults US and Alabama. He supports exporting jobs from the USA, importing foreign science and technology workers, and enslaving illegal immigrants everywhere in the USA. This is typical GOPolicy.

  11. Another rather parochial view of the future. on By 2045 'The Top Species Will No Longer Be Humans,' and That Could Be a Problem · · Score: 1

    Louis Del Monte is rather parochial in estimates that machine intelligence will exceed the world's combined human intelligence by 2045. "Most of the human race will have become cyborgs by the end of this century, is a probability. The allure will be evolution, because “immortality” is demigod hubris and delusion, because all demigods are mortal. Human-machines (cyborgs) will make breakthroughs in science (theoretical) and engineering (applied), most of the human race “MIGHT” have more leisure time, be enslaved a/o dead, and a few or all will have it better. The concern, I'm raising is that cyborgs are human-machines, but silly legacy science-fiction has cyborgs as the future Frankenstein’s monsters unpredictable and dangerous. "Human-machines (cyborgs) are self-conscious and have the capabilities to protect themselves and protect, love, help ... others and evolution. The cyborgs IMO will view us/others in the same way any human does, very naturally. "Humans/Cyborgs are synergistic species that can save the world twice over, and make us humans far better." Appealing roommates to me consider unknowns essential sustenance for synergy and evolution of intelligent species. Fear is a four letter word that is actually obscene to humans/cyborgs.

  12. Goldman Sachs core business data/info .... on Goldman Sachs Demands Google Unsend One of Its E-mails · · Score: 1

    Goldman Sachs core business data/info ..., looks like they don't own a/o act responsible for the data. Goldman Sachs should be fined for the core-business data breach by their contractor, and rehab their core-business model. Goldman Sachs has become just another brand-name that contracts out their core-business requirements ... much like many others in the .Gov, .Mil, .Com domains. They are in name only an institution without actual substance. IMO

  14. Economist are not professionals! on How Often Do Economists Commit Misconduct? · · Score: 1

    Economist/Economics is an Arts/Humanities specialty; So, They economist are not scientist, engineers, doctors ....

    In the USA/EU to hold business/economics "professionals" to a code of conduct/ethics/professional legal strictures is like considering a nude picture a misconduct by an artist.

  15. More news-fear reports ... on America 'Has Become a War Zone' · · Score: 1

    More guns sale to US ...
    More vigilante militias ...
    More dogma survivalist ...

    Fewer violent crimes and gun deaths over the past decades in the USA?

It is all just for fun, and trusting any Web-Services Providers (WSP) Google...Alibaba, or Internet Access Providers (IAP) ComCast xFinity, Verison FiOS ... is as foolish as trusting any government.

  17. I use Vudu and Verizon FiOS on Netflix Trash-Talks Verizon's Network; Verizon Threatens To Sue · · Score: 1

    IMO Verizon has congress and SC-judges on their side; So, NetFlix, Vudu, and US are the lossers.

  18. Shit happens ... then things change IMO. on Musk Will Open Up Tesla Supercharger Patents To Spur Development · · Score: 1

    Other industries, if they fail in killing innovation (by law or tricks) and fail to change quick enough, then they are out of business. Global economic complexities would side (IMO) with an eventual (though gradual) chaos cascade of industry and power away from US, EU, CN ... to places, cultures, and laws willing to nurture innovation.

  19. Big Auto and Big Oil on Musk Will Open Up Tesla Supercharger Patents To Spur Development · · Score: 1

    Both big Auto and Oil will do their best to kill innovation for US, EU .... Prior history of AC by Tesla being taken by Westinghouse, TV by Farnsworth taken by RCA many others. Just like music artist and the recording industry, innovation is corporately controlled by US/EU/WTO/... laws

    I am a small Tesla stock holder. This is good business from this stock holder's perspective. Make the market move and be the market leader.

  21. Makes prescient business sense for Tesla. on Musk Will Open Up Tesla Supercharger Patents To Spur Development · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Elon Musk wants more quick refuel infrastructure on the interstates and local roads/cities, which will advance Tesla's and others electric cars. This is not controversial but does provide probable wider support for Tesla's collection of electric car products, patents, and parts. Open up the designs for Tesla Supercharger systems — the free fast-charging stations designed to quickly refuel electric cars — creating an ISO/OASIS standard for other car makers to use makes prescient business sense.

  22. FixIT or ForgetIT by Software companies is typical on Microsoft Fixing Windows 8 Flaws, But Leaving Them In Windows 7 · · Score: 1

    Simple Reality: It is profitable to release new improved [undocumented bugs] software to buyers.
    It is costly to fix software bugs for free, because old buggy products are a an excellent free marketing tool.

    HookWare is good for US and always good for companies and greedy.

  23. Another Certified CIO?~( on Microsoft Cheaper To Use Than Open Source Software, UK CIO Says · · Score: 1

    Far too many CIOs lack adequate hands-on experience with technology to be overly qualified for more than a far too big paycheck.

    Microsoft products have failed to be innovative and user-friendly. One-fun-one is the USA English thesaurus; try the word “information.”

    One-fun-one (I think) is the Asian MS-developer for the USA English dictionary ....

    Microsoft products (IMO) have not improved since WinXP and Office98. I now take twice as long to perform task using current (Win7...Office2007) MS-products.
