Until you realize that 22% of Norwegian GDP is pulled from the ground, their model would not work here as we only generate 7.6% of our GDP through oil and the greens want even less of it going forward. We should stop comparing ourselves to norway, we don't generate money in the same way.
This is from a digital marketer trying to convince you that your life will be better through digital marketing, until you think about the dangers of it. First off, more than 50% of americans think its wrong for the government to monitor others, and the 2nd most thing that people try to avoid while online are advertisers at 30% (and all bet that the rest of them don't know that their every move online is being monitored. If you were talking to your friend on the street, and a third person started listening in on your conversation, how many of us would tolerate that? Most of us do this every day on line.
The organs word in the article also stems from a book called 'Gulag Archipelago' by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the word organs refers to the intelligence network setup by the Soviets which they used to throw 66 million people into jail. Why you would use this word in a marketing article is sheer stupidity. We are only scratching the surface on abuse of what should be private digital information, and someday the axe could come down hard on us.
If the marketers really 'knew' who I was they would quickly realize that I've only clicked on under 10 ads a year. They wouldn't even display them on websites because they would know that I find ads unappealing. They would realize that it is no use to show me digital ads. I guess they don't know me well enough yet, and that's a good thing.
I had a drive like this, I took it down after it appeared to be making transfers in the middle of the night when all of computing equipment was shut off.
Because the first thing the president should do to open up the internet to rural america is fire the entire FCC board and get some sensible people that aren't propping up companies like comcast, qwest, Att, verizon ect. That want to offer crappy service and charge people through the nose for it.
The only reason why 2017 was notable is that hurricanes decided that the best places to mow down were wealthy US cities. Worldwide costs were up, disasters and deaths were down.
Guess I'll stick with twitter, the bots are only going to rehash social feeds anyway. I refuse to read regurgitated news for the similar reasons I refuse to eat sewage burgers.
I run hundreds of tabs, I use noscript to whitelist all the good stuff. Adservers almost always run stuff on thier own domain so its easy to blacklist. Now I just want this feature for firefox
Since we could already obliterate every square inch of north korea, why would putting nukes in south korea be any different? Sure it might be 20mins faster but why would that matter?
Maybe Kalanick will wake up tomorrow to a news story that all this bad PR is all a plot by Lyft to destroy Uber. Oh wait, all of the bad PR is actively being generated by those associated with Uber.
Lets be honest, most of our innovative ideas are pure tripe. Why? Because it needs to be good for everyone, you, your department, the company and the customers. How many ideas are going to be good ideas for everyone, not many.
I moderate an SE forum. There are major issues with n00bs. The user base could easily be divided into two groups, the users that want to stick around and build the community and those that do not. The users that don't want to build the community get on and do one or more of these things.
1) Expect an answer to their question, even an instant answer, and don't want to do any work or research. A lot of new user questions could be answered by google, but people wont take the time to learn how to use it. 2) Don't read any of the guidelines\rules 3) Fail to communicate 4) Get offended when people ask them for clarification
On this forum some of the new users are chased away, I don't have a problem with that. If somebody is going to contribute, they will get answers to their questions and they will take the time and present their questions in clear way.
If your new user to a forum, your a sycophant. Its your job to make sure you have a good experience, get to work. Most forums have moderators, most forums have rules against aggressive behavior, but your to lazy to figure out how the rules work or how to get help if someone breaks them.
People are taking their valuable time to help you, respect that, when you do you'll get some respect.
Trump doesn't even know what his platform is any more, he got so caught up in himself he doesn't even remember why people used to like him and his supporters can't remember either.
If there are more crashes and they change public opinion on safety of autonomous driving, then it could delay the adoption of autonomous automobiles for a decade or more.
I designed some spacecraft. We were limited on what we could use for a microprocessor because we needed something with history. We almost used an 8051 variant. Same goes for engines, lets say you invent an awesome engine, it even makes you toast in the morning amongst other great things like saving you fuel. You take it to one of the manufacturers, and they love it, because it saves their customers fuel and it give them more incentive to buy their products. Then they tell you, we have these things called warranty's that we offer on all of our vehicles can you tell us the MBTF? Most of the parts are new so you go back to your lab and run it for 5-10 years.
I worked with an indigenous group in Canada, where each person receives approximately 1500$ CAD every other week. They didn't have to do anything to receive that money. There was some interesting things that went on at their reservation. Most of the houses I visited were halfway destroyed. I watched them build new houses and within a week or two they would be missing windows and the doors would be torn off the cupboards. I heard stories of kids that would get a brand new xbox and it would be rendered nonfunctional. If there was a new window anywhere, and I mean anywhere on the reservation, a rock would be thrown through it with in two weeks. They had a school, the school was surrounded by a fence so people couldn't break in and vandalize it. Vehicles, same thing.
I'm not going to judge, but I can't help but think that there has to be a link between the money they received and the value they placed on everything. Most people there place little value on material things that they bought (or were given to them, it was my understanding that their organization bought them their houses), I observed that first hand. Was it because of their culture? Was it because they got money? I don't know, but I know that the money didn't help them out any. If you were given a brand new top of the line alienware laptop (or mac book if you like turtlenecks), what would you do with it? Probably keep it and use it or sell it. If you knew you were going to be given the same laptop every hour, and I told you to smash one of them you would be receiving, would you do it? The answer would probably still be 'No', but it would be much easier to persuade you to do so. Its all about value, if you have to trade your resources to get something (like your time) it becomes much more valuable.
The author of the article must have been running around the street, naked, screaming "fusion is here", "fusion is here". I'm not that excited. For one nobody has said anything about efficiency. Its easy to maintain a plasma if your dumping enough energy into it, so how much energy did they dump into it? Nobody knows. You have to confine the plasma, and get more energy out than you put in. I'm not convinced that they did this. Congrats for producing the longest lasting plasma "flame". But I can make a plasma "flame" in my microwave for minutes at a time. So tell me how much energy did they produce? I'll bet they didn't break even or everyone would be running naked through the streets.

Oh, yeah, the other 100 or so targets promised by Musk and not delivered on time. It's all a big PR sham.

IBM and SCO have been doomed to eternally fight each other, we will see another legal battle every 4-5 years for the rest of eternity.
So your telling me the efficiency of the Chinese experiment was 0%
Yep and you can still give me efficiency numbers with how much energy they put in and how much the plasma produced. But they didn't
Until you start turning every webpage into a freaking tabloid.

Disney was too stupid and released it on a busy weekend in the US, it did quite well internationally.
