Why the hate? This is a meaningless fanboi (or is it hateboi) post. Still in search of clicks?
Perhaps there is hope for you yet, as a political correspondent/stenographer/hack.
Harm? What a joke. This is governments trolling for free money, nothing more. The worst emissions are from the do-gooders who think they are saving the world from productive members of the human race who actually build things.
When expanding highway 75, the main North/South artery that passes the downtown Dallas area around 1990, ground from an old forgotten cemetery was disturbed, and some of the construction workers were getting sick. Here is a few details of what they found. http://www.cemeteries-of-tx.co...
That this "idea" comes from Seattle should be one of your first clues that this is a bad idea.
I was away from the computer when I heard about this. It is such a laughable event and yet I saw no American media coverage after minimal searching a week later. $2.8 Billion doesn't buy much anymore. I guess this seems like a good idea when you're spending someone else's money.
We used cassette tapes for other purposes too... http://www.oldcomputers.net/hp... We'd save off a program to cassette for storage, and it usually worked the next time you tried to load the program. Follow the link and check out the three people in the picture, ready to get to work!
The first time I found ample access to a computer (HP 9830A desktop calculator) was at Texas A&M in '76-'77. Its hard to believe that I spent entire nights from dusk to dawn in the math building on campus, learning BASIC, including a Star Trek game. There's no telling how much thermal paper I ran through the printer.
Dude, You need to get out more often. I want to post a stinging response, but I don't even know where to start. I work on FPGAs on a daily basis; they are powerful devices, but I have no desire to know the most subtle details. The work of 100's of engineers goes into the development of this year's best devices. Do you propose to gather and employ their combined knowledge somehow? You'd never finish a project.
Your template comparing FPGAs to the GCC compiler is flawed. There is a great economy of scale for FOSS compilers. There isn't one for FPGAs.
Administration policies are anti-tax? Really? The GDP suffers due to the heavy load of higher taxes and regulation.
The real story is that things like NASA, NIH, Roads/Bridges, border enforcement aren't important to dear leader, so the budget for those entities suffers.
Now make the case that NASA has suffered due to the anti-tax movement. I'm listening.

What, this? http://www.zerohedge.com/news/...
Taxes never go away, especially in MA.
Polls are a means of guiding and crafting public opinion.
They both will be around forever

It only takes one good EE to keep about five software types busy. Been that way for years.

Nice rant, wrong topic, IMHO.
Lol
Consider the possibility that women just aren't interested. Don't apply your feel-good agendas to it and expect it to be magically transformed.
And for the record, I noticed I was getting semi-symetrical service close to a year ago.
So I'm a Verizon customer, etc. How is this anything more than free advertising? What is the compelling need for this to be all over the media, etc?
These jokes are easy, but they're still funny.
Corded phones didn't cost $350 - $500 either.
AC gets it. No more complicated than what is written above.
He also forgot to say "let me make one thing perfectly clear."
If it isn't funny, you just haven't been there ...
Mod parent up. He speaks absolute irrefutable truth.

On which planet has the anti-tax movement won?
and it would be the final nail in the relevance coffin ...
Your argument would be more effective as a horse/buggy/whip analogy.
