I don't drive a car but I definitely benefit from having roads. The obvious tax to raise revenue for public goods and services is a progressive income tax. More taxes lowers the efficiency of tax collection.
In these situations, the supplies are not available for sale anyway. There isn't even food available. The nature of JIT inventory systems means that most cities don't even have more than a week's worth of food.
I don't think physical currency is going to help much after global thermonuclear war. Because that is the only thing that would collapse the modern electronic infrastructure, right?
I'm going to assume that far more often is 99% of the time in about.01% of the code. This doesn't invalidate your point; it strengthens it. But it bothers me to see such a statement which seems so contrary to my experience and, dare I say, common sense.
USA is actually fairly high on the amount of R&D spending. I don't know where you find numbers for spending on fundamental research, and I'm not entirely convinced it's more relevant than combined R&D.
How is reviewing the content more time consuming than creating the content? If someone really thinks they deserve to be a gatekeeper of what people share with others, then why wouldn't they have to put actual effort into it?
The terrorists the TSA is trying to stop don't exist. This is the reason that after all the money spent trying to secure air travel, the terrorists didn't move to softer targets such as shopping malls, cinemas, etc.
They don't have to share with the whole country, just the region. Transmission loss is a big factor in how far electricity is distributed. The Pacific Northwest has lots of hydro power capacity, and that's precisely the reason it is so cheap.
Many restaurants can prepare better food than people can at home. Also restaurants can afford to stock a far greater variety of food than a normal pantry/fridge.
Orbital solar seems pretty smart as a long term energy source. But it's not so nice here on earth where there's an atmosphere and plants that would also like a little bit of sun.
If Greece didn't "own" the EU, then it wouldn't get hardly any assistance. It's not humanitarian assistance that the EU is providing; they're attempting to limit damage to their own shared economy.
They state that it takes 400 transistors. Intel fabs a 2 billion transistor chip. I don't think that really means that 5 million of these artificial neurons could be put in one die, but pretty I'm sure that they aren't planning to put millions of chips onto a board.
With wafer-scale integration, and some long range signal propagation to emulate 3d, there's reason to think that fairly large systems can be emulated.

I also wonder about the Netherlands. In many places cash isn't accepted, and you can't even use physical currency in banks.
I'd like to see some numbers for that bullshit.

I'm afraid you wasted 4 years. :(
Funny you should say that, I no longer live in America.
It's idiots without legal departments that make the world worth living in. Being too afraid to speak your honest opinion is just disgusting.

Software engineers must be able to keep up.

Because the other portions were written in x86 assembly? I just don't get it.
Where do you come up with that? Standard of living is reasonably difficult to measure, but there's the UN HDI.

Moldova has the lowest, but perhaps you meant EU -- in which case it's Bulgaria.
That's not spam. He's just doing what he can to make the world a worse place.
They don't actually pay as well. YMMV
With Bulldozer, you're not going to be happy either way.

Yeah, looks like he forgot the "sleep 18000000 ;" part of his command...
They consume a lot of power because they have a fast clock rate. A neural net shouldn't need a high clock rate.

Nothing at all. Anonymous Coward seems to be getting less intelligent as he ages.
