Did you know that he can't actually do ANYTHING (except scare the hell out of anyone with a few functioning brain cells) until he is sworn-in as president on January 20th?
There are two ways to take control of the planet. You can destroy all opposition (and their possessions, factories, etc.) or you can get most of the money. You don't even need that much of it, especially if the population is stupid, as we saw in the last election. Look how little it took to take over the US. How much more will be needed to take the rest of the world?
I don't keep my keys in my pocket, so I always have to go get my keys out of my bag when I want to log into my gmail, etc. I don't want the thing hanging around my neck, and not sure I want it on my wrist. How do you keep the darned thing handy at all times? I think I need a NFC yubikey type thing implanted in my hand.
on TV, so as an occasional, nonprofessional user, let me say: the user interface at GitHub is awful. You click a link that looks like a binary file ( with a.bin extension) and sometimes you get html, sometimes a binary file, sometimes a text file. Trying to figure out how to grab the stuff you need from GitHub is incredibly annoying. That's all I have to say about it.
10 years assumes continued research and progress over that period. That requires funds. That requires a government that believes in science. That's not gonna happen in the US. 'Murica is in the final throws of civilization. We have become an idiocracy. Pay attention, rest-of-the-world, this is what failure looks like...
The technology for FDM or FFM printing has been around for 30 years. It isn't improving quickly. It has gone about as far as it can go. Other technologies are catching up and will eventually supplant FDM.
OTOH, the price has come down because the Chinese have recognized that the majority of 3D printer buyers, especially in the USA, don't know what they're buying and will pay $200-300 for a piece of crap that sort of looks like a 3D printer but barely functions as one. The crappy, cheapo printers and the cheapskates (who care nothing about quality) that buy them have guaranteed that 3D printing will remain a specialist product for years to come.
Makerbot didn't help by producing expensive printers that were crap. What is a noob supposed to think? If they spend $$$$ to buy a Maketbot they can expect problems and if they spend $$ to buy a cheapo pile-o-junk printer they can expect problems.
I was talking about this specific effect on the brain. Everyone knows that all sorts of studies have found tobacco to be unhealthy in many ways, ditto everything else listed. What I want to know is if this specific effect they see in marijuana is a common effect with other things or is it specific to weed and does it mean anything in terms of long term health?
someone posts a negative review of anything with "Trump" plastered on it. Then it will not just be illegal to post negative reviews, you will probably end up on the wrong end of a board with your head covered in a wet rag.
I have to take the clothes out of the laundry machine and put them into the sorting/folding robot? Shouldn't I just put dirty clothes into the laundry machine and receive sorted/folded clean clothes as the output? Shouldn't I be able to throw a pair of socks into the laundry machine and have it clean it efficiently and hand me back a pair of clean socks a few minutes later? Why do I need to throw a big pile of stuff into a laundry machine?
The need to conserve water, detergent, power etc., forces me to own a lot of clothing so I have something to wear while my dirty laundry piles up until I have a full wash load. If the machine could launder clothes as they are fed in, I would only need two sets of clothes- one to wear and one to process through the laundry. I might even drop to one set of clothing and pajamas if I could launder every night. Such a machine could create a huge change in the way people view clothing ownership/shopping.
There's no need to sort clothes if all you're washing is underwear(1), socks(2), shirt(1), and pants(1).
I don't know how old you are or when you plan to retire, but getting transmissions out and back into cars is dirty, hard, physical work - not something an older person is generally suited for. Proper tools to make it easier represent a substantial investment. I'd have a back-up plan if I were you...
automation displaces specific people in specific jobs. It happens all the time. Look at the coal miners in W Virginia. If ever there was work that was best automated, drilling and digging coal is it. We can say it's a great thing that fewer people are having to risk their health and lives to dig coal, but that ignores what happens to the people who were doing that. Jobs are created for the people who design, build, and maintain the coal mining robots, but that doesn't help the guy who lost his dirty, dangerous job to the robot. You'll see a similar scenario throughout the economy. The displaced workers are unqualified for the new jobs that the technology that displaced them produced. Now they have to educate/retrain for one of those new jobs, but a lot of them can't do that. The coal mining robots probably weren't designed or built in W Virginia. Where do they go for retraining and what do their families eat while the breadwinner is being retrained? Can he(she) switch to some other work, maybe repairing cars? Cutting hair? Maybe. Maybe not.
There are a lot of specific people who have already lost jobs to automation. Ignoring them is how we ended up with a Chump in the White House.
Objective truth is meaningless. The only facts that matter are political facts- what people can be made to believe. If objective truth forces itself to be recognized, you merely have to explain it the right way to diminish its importance. Perception is all there is.
But you see, the marketing departments of the wine and audio companies were already full up with marketers who turned fermented grape juice into something special and mere cables into active hifi components. All the new marketing grads had to go somewhere.
What's next? Socks? Forks and spoons? Bath soap? Dish soap?
That brings up an interesting point. What sort of investigation into Clinton's email did the FBI do? It seems probable that her staff handled about 99% of Clinton's email. I'm no FBI agent, but it seems to me that if you're investigating Clinton's emails, you'd seize and search her closest aide's computer, and probably all of her staff's computers on the very first day.
This election seems to be about choosing the oligarchy we've been living under or switching to dictatorship...
and goes into shock and maybe dies from exposure to the chemical. It might be the thief or an innocent bystander. Or maybe someone reacts to the chemical and backs away into oncoming traffic and gets hit by a truck. This is no different than booby-trapping your house with a shotgun pointed at the door. It won't stand up in court. The company making the lock, the principals of the company, and the person who put the lock on their bike will all be sued and probably jailed.

Yubikey Neo has NFC. I use mine with my phone all the time.

Jeez, you guys proved my point. You can't think of anything else to say but to criticize an error in word selection. We really are doomed.

Sadly, no.

Trump did to the republicans and democrats.
Sounds like a vast right-wing conspiracy to me.
