Not in the slightest. People own the car anyway. They have a few hours in which they would like to make some money - and now, through Uber, they can. They can sit in their car watching a movie or reading a book until a car comes and then make some money. No work. No fuss. Until there is a fare. Then you go, make some money and then go back to your book or movie.
Some people might actually like having a part-time job that they go to WHEN THEY FEEL LIKE IT.
It has its advantages. If you don't like it - don't do it. If you use the service and feel that way then tip better.
The two issues guns and no-fly cannot (due to mutual distrust) cannot be combined.
First. The no-fly rule. Make it clear, above-board, with due process. This should be done irrespective of what you and I (and others) may feel about the 2nd Amendment and AR-15s.
Then. Once we have that deal with gun prohibition for no-fly rule people.
We have the scenario where we have "no mentally ill people should have automatic weapons." OK. Sounds reasonable. Now define mentally ill. We have a growth of Imperial Washington that needs desperately to be curtailed. It's too bad that both Hillary and Trump are big government proponents.
No. Not at all. The Republicans (good guys in this rare case) do not need to compromise about expanding the no-fly rule. There is no law that could have prevented Orlando.
The shooter was approved by the government to purchase weapons even though he was being investigated by the FBI and the gun shop owner thought he was fishy. He got his guns do to political correctness.
The democrats do not want to get rid of the no-fly rule; they do not want to make the list public and YOU KNOW THAT.
The sit down is political theatre to get the yahoos riled up at the evil republicans who want people to have weapons.
Not watered down. At least not if you're in favor of due process. If you're in favor of the government making a no-fly list; able to put anybody on it at their discretion, keep this list hidden, not allow citizens to review their case; and remove liberties from individuals based on being on said list then you're in favor of tyranny.
Then how come you get tickets for less that than the printed price? (Sometimes).
Especially if it's a cold rainy day AND the concert / game is about to start (or has started).
I've bought many a Knick ticket at less than face value. I've bought some good concert tickets at below face value at numerous venues? Why? Because supply was greater than demand.
There are many good solutions out there - from lottery, to auction to combinations of the two.
I hope you keep that in mind when it comes to any form of taxation. Raise property tax and the dopes think that it's the property owners that get hit. Nope. It's passed on to the renters. Raise any tax anywhere and its the person buying the product that pays for it.
You're parsing this a little more than necessary. The point was not that people would use a AA battery. The point was that this chip was an energy sipper as opposed to an energy guzzler.
I'm 100% against applying progressive solutions such as the Farm Bill to Coal Country. But what to do?
Keep producing coal? No. We need to wean ourselves off coal and other fossil fuels.
But neither can we, with a stroke of a pen, wipe out whole communities. It's funny, that I, as a laissez-faire capitalist have a problem with this while so many progressives who pretend to have concern with the plight of the less fortunate think nothing of ruining lives. (I'm not saying that's your position - but I have heard from many so-called friends of the oppressed.
As far as "they should have thought about that possibility before basing their entire economy on one industry." That may be a legitimate point if the community planned it's growth in that direction and ignored economic realities. But in this case it's a government that in one fell swoop changes it's mind and poof, everything changes. I think the NYC subway system should remove all token booth clerks. They aren't necessary. But I don't think that these people should be thrown out of work. Put them elsewhere in the system. What would the unions say about that? They wouldn't want even that little bit of change. What would progressives think about putting so many hard-working people out of work?
What to do? That's longer than a quick post on slashdot can cover but it's not simply a f*ck you to these communities.
No. Coal will never be reestablished. But there is something very wrong about changing governmental regulations that result in whole communities being wiped out and doing nothing about it. I'm a #Never Trump but here he is talking sense. You can't simply destroy whole communities with a stroke of a pen. And the solution is not welfare and food stamps.
Nonetheless coal has been supplanted by natural gas and renewables are getting more and more cost efficient.
All the above would make sense except for him saying he was doing this for religious reasons.
Why do you accept the word of a guy going into a woman's bathroom - that he's transgender and ought to be allowed there - but you don't accept the word of someone that he is murdering people in the name of his religion?
People tend to avoid embarrassment and humiliation. Different people find different things to be embarrassing. You may not care if your nude photos are published. Others would care.
Belief in the almighty power of the state is also a toxic meme. So how does one cure progressives? Or do you leave them to rot in their misery?
The solution is
freedom of speech - no exceptions - that also means don't go out of your way to shout down your political oponents,
freedom of thought (otherwise known as a religion)
one can disagree with others but one cannot use violence.
And yes that means that once in a while a crazy person will do some crazy sh!t.
Attackers, as far as I know use a series of scripts running concurrently.
One script will try the 100 most common passwords. They will get some hits.
Another will try the 101-1000 most common passwords. This too will get some hits.
Another will try every a-z combination for 6 characters.
Another every a-zA-Z for 6 characters
Another every a-zA-Z0-9 for 6 characters ...

A 26 character password - even a simple one will not be broken very easily. Add a few funks to it and it's save.
26^26 is not crackable. There are 6x10^36 combinations.
I'm at my desk at work now
I'm-@-my-d3sk-@-work-now!
and furthermore a basic dictionary has about 30,000 words and that includes some very unusual words. It's best to combine words, get to 12 characters and funk things up.
"I'm at my desk" becomes
I'm_at_my_desk or
I'm+@t_My_d3sk or even funkier.
You've made a memorable password; it's more than 12 characters and is much better than the average password. Can you make one better. Yes. Add more letters.
"I'm at my desk at work now." It's easy to type, easy to remember and will not be easy to break.
The time has come for me to reveal the earth shattering news that you hve all been waiting for!
Ayn Rand was right and so was Carl Menger and Ludwig von Mises! Collectivism is poop and anyone who believes in a collectivist ideology has poop where they would otherwise have a brain! Open your skull, scoop out the poop, and let your brain grow back by reading AYN RAND and participating in the revolutionary movement for a free future!

the Democrats who voted against one of the bills.
I wonder if he put that up. (Need to look up if he was one of those who voted against the bill.)
"you'll see the AirBnB units outnumber the actual rental units available to people who live there."
You may be double counting units. I renter can list his apartment on AirBnB and still live there.
Of course there are people who push the boundaries. The solution is to deal with those boundaries.

Thx. You're correct. My example included a 4. That wouldn't happen. Wasn't thinking.
I've seen the 8 prefix on hotels both in Hong Kong (Cantonese) and in Shanghai (Mandarin/Shanghainese)
People tend to avoid embarrassment and humiliation. Different people find different things to be embarrassing. You may not care if your nude photos are published. Others would care.
And hotel room numbers often start with 8 as 8 is good luck.
You can be room 14 on the 6th floor and instead of 614 the room will be 8614.
