they're richer than sin considering their government paychecks
No way, man. $174,000 is hardly "richer than sin."
They are richer than sin, but it's because they constantly accept bribes (under various euphemisms) and rotate out to highly lucrative private sector positions bribing other politicians.
the rest of the world is bogged down navigating them
Yet at the same time we're incentivized not to navigate (research) the existing patents by the willful infringement rules. Not only does it make a mockery of the patent system as an avenue for "disclosure," but you're trapped between the rock of due diligence and the hard place of triple damages.
Deputy Attorney General James Cole also issued a three-and-a-half page memo..."expectation that states...will address the threat those state laws could pose to public safety, public health and other law enforcement interests"
Hmm, bet we can guess those "interests." Like keeping their hands on their drug money and free labor.
Look, I'm sure your anti-intellectualism flies in the local pub or around the office but some people actually value the repartee advanced language makes possible.
Too bad you can't even see that the conclusion of your own attitude is nothing other than Newspeak itself.
The authoritarians who don't respect the personal choices of others are the same as the ones who drive the endless march of war.
As for you, you are just another wannabe authoritarian whose futile wishes for control over other folks' genitalia will be relegated to the dustbin of forgotten history.
Stop slandering Manning. He did exactly the same as Snowden, but one of the Guardian's employees foolishly left an encryption key on a publicly accessible site. Only after that key was already out in the open did Wikileaks (again, not Manning) release all those documents.
Minimum income or a jobs guarantee (which would be way better than unemployment insurance anyway).
However, whenever I wonder if society will re-organize to avoid that future, in which automatons provide a life of plenty which can never be consumed because everyone is unemployed, I think back to The Grapes of Wrath.
It's not the argument of a Luddite. The author isn't railing against technology or the component of technology that is software. He's railing against the industry that prioritizes useless ad delivery and photo-sharing over 1) new tech which is actually useful for something and 2) deployment of existing (useful) tech to new regions.
I'm not sure why the self-contradictory platitudes of the anti-sex league are expected to convince anyone of anything.
Marxism is the delusion that one can run society purely on altruism and collectivism
Marxism, it aspires, overtly or covertly, to reduce social life to economics
Pick a way.
Consider pornography: libertarians say it should be permitted because if someone doesn’t like it, he can choose not to view it. But what he can’t do is choose not to live in a culture that has been vulgarized by it.
Interesting. Actually, first incentivizing consumers at the expense of utilities, and then later doing the opposite, might make sense from the perspective of a revenue constrained country like Germany.
The trouble with California is that the rules depend on when and where you bought in. Some people are only allowed to earn back up to the connection fee.
Subsidies and negative externalities of the fossil fuel and other non-renewable energies and future return to scale of the solar energies are distortions to the economic picture and must be excluded for an honest discussion on the topic.

No, but this isn't about resource exhaustion, it's about current production levels.

Do you think the moderation would be any different if I had logged in
Yes, when you're logged in your comments start at Normal: 2.

I'm sorry you don't respect others, too.
He's trying to retroactively justify his own hiring I think.
To get rich you only need to impress chumps; to be smart you have to impress other smart people.
because they have experienced being smarter than others and thus having to think for themselves
That's actually a good insight. You literally have to be thinking for independently of someone in order to experience being smarter than that someone.
Obviously never heard of SELinux.
Don't forget, she leaked "collateral murder." That is whistleblowing if ever a whistle has been blown.
Yeah, now that everyone has seen our guys gleefully murdering reporters and civilians our operational security is compromised.

It appears that the judge ruled that even if the driver texts you, you might be liable!
There is no relation even between established companies and solid code. As far as I can tell there are maybe 3 good software companies total.
Sorry, hating on big words doesn't cut it as literary criticism.

Gimme a break.

I'm not so sure about your plan to let ~150 W / sq. m the sun is beaming down here all day be completely wasted forever, either.
Is AES immune to such attacks for any message/crib size ratio?
