"The total amount of natural resources at our disposal isn't increasing, why should the money supply?"
Because there are more things than natural resources that have value that people represent with money, and that value can be more than the value of the resources consumed to make them.
Under your economic theory, working is useless. Why do you hate capitalism?
From what Moore actually wrote: "Certainly over the short term this rate can be expected to continue, if not to increase. Over the longer term, the rate of increase is a bit more uncertain, although there is no reason to believe it will not remain nearly constant for at least 10 years."
Oh, it's definitely predictive, hence the predictions. What is lacks is a fundamental theoretical basis, but that is not a requirement of a scientific law. Plenty of good scientific laws got their start without any theory, and even drove the search for a theory.
Consider Kepler's laws of planetary motion which were developed without knowing that gravity was supplying the force to create the orbits. Also, there is a law of centrifugal force, despite the fact that the force is fictitious.
Moore's law is about the increase in transistors existing per area. You have assumed an equal increase in transistors that are doing something per area, which is not in evidence.
That's what a law is in science. More precisely, it is a relation between observations, in this case device density and time. It is perfectly valid to apply the term to something purely historical and empirical.
It tried to transliterate, just like it does for any other language. So this is not evidence that Klingon is any less complete than any other language.
The US Constitution quite clearly does not require spending bills to originate in the House of Representatives, only revenue bills. This should matter to strict constitutionalists.
But that does not matter since this is not even a revenue issue. It is a recognition of the right of states' to collect state taxes that are already levied and owed. This should matter to states' rights advocates.
(This is assuming, of course, that you have access to strict constitutionalists and states' right advocates of actual principle.)
Do you have any factual basis for thinking that in this case BT did in fact sit and wait, as opposed to attempting to negotiate in private before resorting to the courts?
"Wasn't that long ago that running 1280x1024 on a 17" LCD was pretty damn nice,"
How long is "not long ago"? 10 years ago I had 1600x1200 on a 14" LCD on my ThinkPad for work. (I now have 15" 1920 x 1080. I'm note sure if that is an improvement or a degradation.)

"They could start killing babies and it wouldn't affect their bottom line."
Of course it would affect the bottom line. Do you think they'd be killing babies for free?

In other words, a prediction.

Every word he said is wrong, including "and" and "the".
Since Moore's Law is silent on "minimum feature size", then no observation of that metric can be contradictory to that law.
"you know something is fundamentally wrong"
And that wrong thing is your understanding of microeconomics.
The point is still irrelevant, since they are not stopping investigations of sudden disappearances.
Normal people, who have experience with the outdoors, have no trouble with such a comparison.

Now you've solved two problems.
Could you please direct us to the factual basis for your claims that Apple deliberately leaks information as a marketing tactic?
I'm sure Michael J. Fox is very ashamed of the jokes he's made about Michael J. Fox.
Inclusive caching vs. exclusive caching are not very different.
It was a joke, except for not being funny.
"We are also not taught the difference between a true democracy and a republic. (The US is not a democracy). "
This is true in the same sense that your mother, being a whore, is not a true slut.
Incorrect and irrelevant.

Damn you, Gene Amdahl!
People like you forget that the same man who wrote _The Wealth of Nations_ also wrote _The Theory of Moral Sentiments_.
"he quit and I was given ownership of the ball of mess"
I hope you've learned your lesson.
Is that anything like getting the Nobel peace Prize for ending the Vietnam War in 1973?
