Why pay Google for an ad when you can get free publicity by deliberately submitting an ad that you know they won't run, then submitting a frivolous lawsuit.
No, free speech rights are just better protected in Oregon. You don't get any better than "no law" as unconditionally spelled out in the constitution. The problem is a supreme court that won't enforce it.
Good thing that everyone agrees on the meaning and interpretation of every word in the Constitution. I wonder why we even bother having a Supreme Court?
the top execs are always willing to accept reponsibilty and accept an obscene bonus
Who decides what is and what is not obscene? Shouldn't that be the decision of the shareholders? If the shareholders vote for the bonus, the what business is it of those who aren't shareholders? If you want a say on pay at Goldman then buy some of their shares and vote them. If more of the occupy people did this instead of screaming in the streets and voted as a block, then perhaps something might actually change. Maybe they should each buy 20 shares of Goldman Sachs instead of that Mac Book Pro? A strong minority vote at the shareholder's meeting, binding or not, can provoke greater scrutiny and perhaps lead to bonuses more in line with long term performance of the company and the value thus created for shareholders who are in fact the owners of the business.
Let's suppose a million people do what you say. That's 97.43 * 20 * 1M = $1.9B. That's 3.9%. So they all march into the shareholder meeting. Oh look, they can't . It's closed. Well how about voting on executive pay? Oh look, its not on the ballot and there's no way to put it on there. The board controls what goes on the ballot and they like things the way they are. I hate to break this to you, but companies are not democracies. And the big institutional shareholders don't care either. Why? Because GS isnt' taking their money and paying bonuses, they're taking it from schmoes who trust their money to crooked banks.
For example, a bank should not be allowed to combine with another bank. Mergers should only take place between different types of financial institutions as God intended.
Yes, out of the tens of thousands of emoyees everyone is supposed to know what everyone is doing

If corporations are people, then they're responsible for the relationships between the different thoughts in their heads.
When a corporation makes a huge profit, the top execs are always willing to accept reponsibilty and accept an obscene bonus. When the corporation does something bad, shouldn't they be responsible for that, too?
Let's see. Average 20 minutes/day * 300M people / 2 is about 2 M days/day. So you need to process 2 M calls at a time to keep up. Seems like it would take a moderate sized supercomputer to process 2M audio signals simultaneously looking for keywords. 100 Teraflops would be plenty,

Encryption for email has been widely available since the mid 1990s, with native support or plugins for almost (but not quite) every major mailer, yet almost no one uses it. That shows just how much most people care about security of online communication.
Which email client has encryption installed out of the box? How "widely available" is it if I have to go download a plugin, then find out how to generate keys, then somehow get my public key to all of the people that I want to communicate with? None of this process being standardized or documented in one place.
As an aside, I have no idea why I have to be an AC right now. I've logged in, but when I opened this article, I find myself in AC-land, and my preferences are gone. But then when I open other articles, I seem to remain logged in. ???
How about if you just allow any password and lock the account for 30 minutes after 3 failed tries? That's a technology that's been around for only, oh, 40 years. Does anybody actually break into accounts by guessing 100,000 passwords?
I tried out the Analyzer program, and discovered that it only seemed to look for *English* words. Simple, easy-to-remember phrases in Tongan or French were rated as extremely strong (taking centuries to break).

Wait.. AdultFriendFinder is a real thing? I just assumed it was a thinly veiled front for prostitution.
You are incorrect. It is not thinly veiled.
No. People on LinkedIn are generally not serialkillers. Just sociopaths.
Most of the CEOs I know are on LinkedIn.
I don't know of any republicans that want to completely abolish the EPA.
Newt Gingrich, John McCain, Dan Coats, Kay Bailey Hutchison, Orrin Hatch have all backed legislation to abolish the EPA.
Last time I didn't get any cake.

Really? I've tried using an actual key and a key duplicator and it still doesn't work half the time. Tolerances are really tight on good locks.

what the environmentalists will use for an excuse for why this is evil... maybe compressed air is bad for subterranean cave bats?
I wonder what impurities the compressed air will pick up while its stored.

Dunning and Kruger rated themselves way too high.
So who do we use for search?
Feeding cattle a hybrid between conventional bermudagrass and a cyanide-producing stargrass strain is not GM. Just unfortunate.
The stargrass produces cyanide to protect itself from insects, for those who believe in evolution.
Refurbished means that it was returned but passed the tests. Manufacturers don't fix anything broken anymore.

I'm surprised you don't know these. I learned the standards when I first started programming. For example:
Have these changed?
From the Wikipedia article:

"...encrypting your email?"

To be realistic, most people won't use more than about 3 words for a password, so let's say 5000^3 ~36 bits.
Whereas an 8-character password using upper + lower + digit + special is about 64^8 ~48 bits.
So the 8-character random password wins. A 4-word password would be equal.

Maybe your password was too weak.
How about if you just allow any password and lock the account for 30 minutes after 3 failed tries? That's a technology that's been around for only, oh, 40 years. Does anybody actually break into accounts by guessing 100,000 passwords?
