I have to think that you've tipped all the wrong people, and been getting terrible service. You probably should have never tipped any of them at all. The type of service that earns a 20% tip is so good, you would never argue against it.
You understand that your money doesn't just sit there magically earning 5% by doing nothing, right?
Rethink your broken world scenario as: you are better off investing your money in growing corporations than by buying a very marginal improvement in your power generation opportunities.
Why not every citizen? It'd be cheaper than the costs we've already sunk into either fission or fusion power, and would reduce power needed by more than the output of all of the fission power plants we have in this country. Or looking at it another way, if you want to save CO2 emissions, how about we turn off half the coal plants?
But by eliminating the need for artificial lighting with superior eyes, they could get rid of 38% of the US energy usage. Frankly, nothing they can possibly do will have any substantially better yield than that.
More like creating a car door with locks that can be defeated by a slim jim. Oh wait, that's what we actually have, and they don't hold the engineers of those cars liable for theft.
They may as well accept defeat, they have no chance to survive with buzz in the market. The coolest people are already moving, and they will drag their friends, etc. Facebook probably has less than two years left to it at this point. Hope the founders got their money out.
And probably more importantly than estimating accurately, we aim to estimate consistently. Then we compare actual rate of feature completion against the estimated size of remaining features. We've landed within a single sprint of estimates over a year long release with 20+ developers.
It is an evolving, living communications medium. If the English manuals can't keep up, that's not on teens and tweeners, that's on the manual manufacturers. Just another dying industry like the cd-pressing industry. Get used to seeing a lot of:-) in your world, or be prepared to cope with a:-P

You realize that that is in no way anywhere close to how things work in reality, right?
Methane, being about the worst greenhouse gas (in any plentiful quantity), is a really great thing to get rid of. So yes, very green.

If you're infected with even one meme, you should care.

There is no deleting. Modding down to oblivion only makes things vanish for those who have /. set up to hide unpopular posts.
Just make it into a two part combo device, so you can take out half just like removing a contact lens and render it inoperable.
There's a very similar commercialized solution that involves micro-shocking the tongue.
Eliminating the need for artificial lighting = 38+% of all energy usage gone.

I've used tape to defeat a mic before, why would that be a problem?

It's both. You get money from your insurance company, and they pursue the criminals in the courts to recover if possible.
I bought my house with cash on 5 years worth of interest payments I didn't make by renting instead.
This doesn't deserve to be marked a troll.
brillant!
Sure, but the medical policy must have been ridiculous to cover all the RSIs from the scrolling.
So it's a retrospective decision to have been made based on what your success will be in the future?
I used to ask for a quicksort implementation as an interview problem, and I've received well over a hundred answers, and at least 20% of those worked.
Real managers plan and prioritize, not delegate. The assignment of tasks should be handled on a pull basis by the team.

Now get off my lawn you kids!
