And I suppose hydroelectric is clean and safe and happy? Their construction techniques cost hundreds and in some cases thousands of lives. Hydroelectric plants are an ecological disaster that utterly destroys the natural environment of any river they are put on.
We already have files that include their own metadata. Its called using a file type that includes its own metadata. A JRXML however will remember the zoom level and view position of iReports when it was last saved. A DOCX file stores the registered user of MS Word date of creation among other things. However every file type is different and there can be no universal metadata format. A simple text file can only contain the metadata you put in it, and there is no need to make a simple text file impossible.
Brainwashing a cold war myth? I am sorry, but the last few thousand years of religion would like to have a word with you, from birth, repeatedly, until that word subconsciously manifests itself in you at all times.
No, it did not make me stronger. Its just that I was already strong enough and lucky enough to have gotten through it where most would not. It has in fact made me weaker. If I had adequate food, shelter, health care and education from the start I would most likely be in a far better place right now. A place where modest success is the expectation rather than the oddity.
I grew up poor. I got meat on my table for the cost of a bullet and dodging the game warden in the off season. I got vegetables on my table because we gleaned the commercial fields to gather what was left over from the combine harvesters before it spoiled. We had bread because my mother was willing to buy hogs feed, mill it herself and bake it. I grew up in a house with a dirt floor and no insulation in rural Montana. I grew up getting a grand total of 2 cheap toys a year, 1 for my birthday and 1 for Christmas. I know what its like to have to choose between seeing a doctor and paying rent. I still have clothes I wore 20 years ago because I don't throw anything away. I've had to work my fingers to the bone to grind my way out of abject and total poverty. And I am a lucky one, born gifted with intellect that puts me in the 99.99 percentile.
Fuck you. Fuck you ignorant condescension and feeble immorality. And by the way, failure to provide health care often leads to death, violating Maslows physiological need to breath, and otherwise sets on the second tier of safety. Education ties in to employment and indirectly the ability to provide food, again setting in the two most basic tiers. You are just wrong.
"Blame"? They are the only demographic in the US that is expanding, that is a fact, and the anglo demographic is shrinking. I am not "blaming" them for anything. If you count every other demographic, the US has negative population growth. If you include Hispanics, the growth is positive.
"Wealth" is not static. Wealth is natural resources transformed into a useful state by action of labor and energy. As population rises, labor available rises and the rate of transformation of resources into wealth increases. Does it increase as rapidly as population? Maybe, maybe not.
I would also point out that it would only take a few percent of the worlds deserts covered in solar plants to provide enough energy equal US consumption for the entire human population.
No, in the long term population expansion will cease. The per capita birth rate in nearly every nation on earth is falling. In some cases (Europe, Japan and the non Hispanic parts of the US) below 2 children per woman. Human population will likely plateau around 10 billion and stay there.
What is described in that article does not match what you suggested.
The article has eligible people signing up for classes, getting the grant and then flunking out. 1 student at 1 school for 1 semester. They get a cut, but the person making the money is not the student, but the organizer. It looks like each student can only do this at 1 school per semester.
Or you could try to do that, and utterly fail like 90%+ of the people who do. The minimum cost of living is nearly twice the average pay of an uneducated person. You can't save if you your monthly paycheck is only marginally higher than the rent on a 1 room apartment.
I was programming at 8. I didn't need to go to university to learn to program. I needed university for the math and theory, but mostly for the fact that getting hired without a bachelors degree was literally impossible at the time.
LOANS. Loans get payed back, with interest. People who get student loans do pay it back. They have to because they can not go bankrupt on those loans. The only exceptions are those who become disabled and unable to work, and even in that case it is a decade long process.
1: grant money takes time, you don't get it until half way through the semester. Long after nearly every school closes its late registration. 2: You can't get the same grant at multiple schools at the same time. 3: It is illegal to be enrolled in more than one school at a time (at least where I went).
Speaking as a successful software developer who needed student loans to attend college. Bullshit. Student loans SUCK, but they are the only thing that allows a large number of low to middle income people get into the career they want and need.
There are alternatives to student loans: Ron Pauls solution: only the wealthy may attend college. Tuitions will skyrocket even farther because there are so few new students. Hundreds of universities are forced to close their doors and all we are left with are a lot of trade schools and the Ivy Leagues. Something rational: Recognize that state universities are state universities and have no profit obligation and should not be run like corporations. Cut administrative costs (tuition increases go almost 100% to higher administrative wages and more administrative positions instead of to professors and facilities) and offer low or free tuition subsidized by the state.
The one on the right is the Samsung, it is longer even though you can tell from the parallax that it is being held at a shallower angle compared to the ground.

I don't know, I tend to drive slower when I do that.
On second thought... it is public domain that is obsolete by their wording... And that is truly disheartening.
Was it just me, or was their response basically "it isn't in my interest to say this, but copyright is obsolete in the 21st century"?
And that happens to be graphene rolled into one.

No it is not as bad as using the handicapped toilet because it is free. I am under no legal obligation to not use the handicapped toilet.

Food, shelter, clothing, basic healthcare and education.

I have to call bs on that. I am no AGW denier, but you are talking about a 20 or 30 degree increase in global temperature.

It is insufficiently profitable, and sometimes looses money. But it isn't exactly a free money giveaway.

This is why you should buy a dethklok phone. No rounded corners there.
I tried to find a image from the metalocalypse episode where they were shown... But this was the best I could find.

Its shapes, you can't fuck it up.
We are so sorry. Does Tentacle fight work better?
