Amateur. Everyone knows you can only get the real flavor your after by collecting the fresh scat from wild animals in their native forest. I've bought half a small country and employ most of two villages to gather the beans prior to roasting them in the heat well adjacent to turbine in my private jet in the near vacuum of my 45k transpacific flights.
And I'm not even half as particular as most of the regulars at CoffeeGeek.
"parents feel they can't help their kids with homework."
That's true, but also a bit by design from what I've seen. The cc methods tend to take multiple approaches, realizing that not every child learns the same way and, in a way, shotgunning the approach in hopes of finding a method for everyone. Some of the math - the stuff which has be severely ridiculed by (mostly) politically conservative groups - happens to be exactly the way I do math very quickly in my head. It's not any method that's typically taught to students, but is more physical rather than theoretical in nature. If you learned (and still only know how) to do the theoretical versions, the practical ones will throw you. And that *should* be okay, but only if the teachers understand it. And many of the teachers are old and set in their ways, too, which results in teachers who can't teach it and parents who aren't in the loop. And that will always lead to friction.
If the computer had been in control, it might have been able to avoid the accident that the human was unable to avoid. But in the rush to find fault with the computers, nobody is considering that angle.
As a bonus, these drones will cost more per unit than the threshold for a felony in practically every state. Getting caught will pretty much get you a felony rap sheet and time in the big house - either for theft of destruction of property or both. And there's a very high likelihood you will, given the monitoring which will be required to fly under FAA guidelines.
It will be a non-issue I suspect.
Plus, Amazon will know immediately if there's a loss of a drone and can dispatch a replacement to keep the end users happy.
I might have bitten, except for this. A year in this product space is pretty large. And I'm sure DX will have a clone in their shop by July or August 2016 that's $5-6.
There's a band of error to all operations; I would expect a suitable band could be chosen for automated flight. For non-automated flight, a list of requirements to provide an experienced pilot a reasonable chance of success. And fail safes for problems - such as automatic recovery deployment in the event of an critical flight sustainability error. There are no perfect methods, but there are acceptable risks.
I should add - it's not illegal to decrypt your own media for personal uses which are allowed under fair use and other laws, but it's not legal for anyone else to help you do so. It's like locking you in a cell and saying that you may leave any time, which is your right, if you choose to unlock the door. But you can't hire anyone to unlock it for you, give you a key, or even teach you locksmithing. It's a fucked up world.
Code can be a weapon (stuxnet, et al.). It isn't, in this case, of course - but it can be.
There are several tacks to take on this particular file. From the point of view of the State Dept, it looks like they are regulating this similar to encryption and weaponizable technologies which are regularly embargoed. For example, it's not unusual to be restricted from selling a project which contains encryption technology the NSA can't break. It's also illegal to sell - or even give away - a program which removes encryption from encrypted media (DVDs, BluRay discs).
Of course, he still has to show he has been harmed in order to have standing. It will be interesting to see this play out.
Wouldn't these be considered trade secrets and under the responsibility of the sorority to guard against disclosure? If the physical pieces are not trademarked, nor the written contents or acts copyrighted as a performance. Note that a quick Google shows they were founded in 1913, which would make all of their original text public domain.
If they do (and it's unlikely as there's a *lot* of legacy that stays in the tax code regardless of changes for future options), having a Roth is no worse than having a regular savings account. Actually, its better because all of the gains and dividends are tax free while they're in the account. Worst case is you roll it into a non-retirement account and pay taxes on the gains, probably on an extended time frame for capture.
Yeah, but it always happened when they were gone...it was like those god damned aliens *waited* until lunch time to pull their stunt, and no matter how fast the scientists rushed to get back - sometimes not even waiting until the food was done - it always happened right before they got back.;-)
(btw - I naturally didn't rtfa, but if they worked odd shifts from time to time it would have show up occasionally during non-work hours, throwing them off.)
"One would need to start with a giant wrecking ball and remove everything ever built there and then set a population cap on an entirely new city to be built in its place.
I asked about a procedure with my ENT a while back. He actually didn't know the total cost (though it was fairly common). He thought his fees would be in the 2k range, but he didn't know what the hospital would charge for a few hours of a room, operating theater, and support. So I called the hospital - and they didn't know either.
MSAs (medical savings accounts) already exist, but are limited to people who choose HDHPs (high deductable health plans, with special limits) and to about $3k/yr for singles and $6k/yr for families. It's your money, going pre-tax into your savings/investment account and able to be withdrawn for medical uses tax free. It's not federal government.
What we need is a way to ensure that services are not billed to private clients (individuals) for more than large corporate clients (insurers). If I pay cash for a procedure, I shouldn't be charged 5-10X what I would be charged if I were insured.
"Mind you, I'm not advocating that we halt technological progress, but we're coming up on a time when there just aren't going to be enough jobs to go around, and the economy is going to have to adjust for that in a way that rewards people who work but doesn't starve people who want to work but can't find jobs."
I've been saying this for years (decades, really). In the 1970s it was said we'd all be working a 10 hour work week. Except that humans are regularly willing to trade 40-50 hours a week in return for [more] pay [than their peers] and as a result the number of jobs is dropping. Couple that with the ability of computers and robotics to take over a large swath of jobs at the "bottom" of the workforce and there's going to be a reckoning at some point.
That's just temporary. Soon the "drivers" will be remote, with the feeds to a central terminal where a team of virtual drivers are available to take over in the event of conditions which the computer cannot navigate, and for parking/docking/interactions. An office of 50 drivers will be able to monitor and control 1000 or more vehicles in service.
Because the plain old internet doesn't make much money for anyone.
You're talking about putting infrastructure into places where there is no expectation of the local population valuing the connection enough to pay for it. And infrastructure doesn't pop up for free.
Philanthropy is wonderful, but it's not generally part of the business plan for major corporations. Especially when that philanthropy would allow competitors direct access to users.
There was no such ambiguity within the residents of Blacksburg. Most students currently at Tech were not students when the original shooting happened, or even know students who were here. But those of us who live here remember, and remember quite vividly. There was no question that this was related. Asking some kid who probably 12 when the shootings happened probably isn't going to get you much response.

An espresso maker doesn't just make espresso, though. It's an entire hot-drink station. At least, that's the way I use mine.
So, if we just add wifi we can have the Internet of Keurigs?

I think that would be just to hillary your hard drive, not rehillary it. It may take on a life like Robert Bork (i.e. to be borked).
You can't just do this without insider help. And by insiders, I mean government officials.

Works poorly because of operator limitations?

If it were all about money, they'd hire all women and only have to pay them 78c on the dollar. Amiright?

Your proposal is acceptable.

That's where your real savings will come from.

I'd like to ensure that both sides of this suffer maximum casualties. Ending up with only one bat-shit crazy fundamentalist cult doesn't help.
