Test it on the mice, so to speak. My suspicion is, people who work will strongly resent those who don't, and this will ultimately kill the whole thing.
He lost the right to be treated as a human the moment he killed the first kid on that island. Lock him up and throw away the key for all I care. I could understand the protest if the veracity of his guilty verdict was in any doubt whatsoever, but it's not. He did it. He's even fucking proud of it. He does not deserve to live, let alone receive humane treatment.
Do you really believe they actually read any of the stuff you write? All I ever got back were obviously canned responses with not even a passing resemblance with the things I wrote about.
I too believe global warming is real and man made, but I also recognize that scientific "consensus" means absolutely nothing whatsoever when controversial ideas are involved. At one point the scientific consensus was in favor of earth being flat, and not washing hands before surgery. If you want a more recent example, look up the discovery of heliobacter pylori as a cause of ulcers. Dude almost got laughed out of his scientific field because "consensus" at the time was that ulcers are "because of the nerves, or something you eat". I'm sure others could come up with many other examples of varying vintage.
So don't beat people over the head with "consensus". Show them the data in a way mere mortals can understand. Appeal to their belief structure. That's really the only way to make a real difference.
It was obvious from day one that she wouldn't last long. Google is a hyper-competitive place with _many_ of its own ambitious, type-A people fighting for opportunities. This is an extremely difficult environment for an outsider. Adult supervision in the form of the new CFO didn't help either.
This should literally be like a 3-line code change. if (not logged in) {// don't log the cookie } Give them three weeks and a stern look to ensure compliance.
The important bit there is the barrel, by far the hardest thing to make by hand. The barrel is not considered to be "the gun", and you can buy it online without any regulation. If you can then print a decent lower at home, you have your own firearm.
Not that there's anything wrong with having a firearm, of course. If you really want one, you can build a shotgun out of $30 worth of parts from your local Home Depot.
The only device manufacturer that makes money off Android is Samsung. Good luck "pressuring" those guys to do anything, and without Samsung Android is basically fucked on the high end where all the money is. So I fail to see how this could possibly work.
Project Loon is what happens at large companies when you want to retain very senior people who can no longer be bothered to do the real, actual work. You come up with a bullshit project for them and let them spend years of their life to build it only to cancel it in the end.
With enhancements, of course. An email would be sent to your boss daily: "Joe Blow used his computer for 2 hours and 30 minutes today, 2 hours and 20 minutes of which were spent browsing Slashdot and Reddit."
I'm also cancelling all my purchases of Italian supercars until 2025 due to budget constraints.
There's no story here folks. Russia is still flying designs from the late 60s. Even at the height of the Soviet power they did not manage to build a rocket with enough lift capability to take humans to the moon. They sure as heck can't do this now. Their space exploration has been confined to LEO for more than a decade. Old guard has retired and/or died off, the best and brightest are leaving the country in droves. It can't be done there. Shit, it can barely be done over here.
I'd even extrapolate further: in the vast majority of cases paople complain about X because they learned Y first. Except when it comes to Windows, which is a pile of garbage in absolute terms.:-)
Would you rather live with shitty application ecosystem that has to support everything down to the lowest common denominator of Windows XP? They do make a significant effort to make this low impact. They only download over a wired connection, and deprioritize this traffic.
But I'm glad Microsoft is shedding legacy so aggressively. There's no way the OS will install itself automatically. It'll merely be downloaded to your machine (or machines). Install it if you want to, or don't, you still have choice.
IIRC diesel engines are extremely efficient when idle. So much so, that unlike with gas engines, it doesn't make sense to shut them down if they are going to be idling for a few minutes.
When was the last time a Christian, a Jew, or an atheist flew a plane into a building full of people while praising their God? Fuck them. This shit keeps happening over and over again, and every single time some idiot comes out and starts telling everyone that "they're not all like this". I don't care. A sufficient percentage of them I so ass backward that we need to do something about all of them at this point.
Ubuntu, which most people use nowadays, has privacy-invading features too in default install. See those Amazon links when you search for something on your machine? That means your query was sent to Amazon.
As a developer, you're typically not in a position of power. In large companies as long as you're obviously not going to leave, you're pretty much universally perceived as a cog. Sometimes as an expensive cog, but a cog nevertheless. The most power you can have is when you vote with your feet and go work elsewhere.
To a company this means they'll have to replace you with an unknown dude, who is difficult as heck to hire, and they'll likely have to pay quite a bit more money as well. So some tactical effort will likely be made to keep you (assuming you're valuable). This never leads to any kind of long term improvement though, so whatever irked you before this tactical last-ditch thing will continue to irk you in the future, and you should leave anyway.

Sen. Feinstein is in a rather rabid opposition to this idea. She's been proposing one gun ban after another for as long as I can remember.

Why not just buy a Windows 10 stick for about as much? At least Microsoft won't abandon Windows.

By the _government_? Really? Or by Finnish taxpayers?
My last Dell laptop sounded like hair dryer. Never again.
Dart and Go are being developed by two completely separate groups of people, and they've been all along.
