As a kid growing up in the 70's and 80's we still had a few of these types of guy. I recall learning from one old guy how to carefully stretch ( I think it was stretch ) the copper wires in a portable handheld radio to listen to the airplane pilots, rhymes to learn the stars, use a vacuum gauge to tune up a car and all sorts of non important things that now that I am older, I use a lot.
gee, how to bend metal in all 3 axis was something of a trick but you learned, drill a hole in a rock fill it with water every day for a year, it will crack ( ice will form in the winter, and it will split the rock on the bore hole
heck, powdered (not regular) sugar+vitamin E pill liquid, mix into a paste in the palm of your hand, slab it over a wound, heals faster and will leave no scar ( I'm proof of that, I have no scars even in stab wounds).
I know but I got a clear answer and I was overjoyed... silly I know, but if you can recall wiring an s-100 bus and making it play a tune then you'll understand the happiness of it.
Why is this interesting... I am in real estate by trade but this problem ( solution ) has some wonderful idea's that might benefit everyone
This is something crazy BUT taking medicine ( this was my first thought )
SIDE NOTES: Sadly my Grand Mother was a huge pill popper back when she was alive to the point that I dislike any medicine until I read it entirely, and ask lots of questions. to this day I can name every prescription I've ever had since childhood ( I'm 51 )
I think the average older person take 5 to 10 different pills a day. two or three times in the day what if we could discover an order in which they could take the pills that reduced the number of pills but had the same effects and outcomes. this could change the world or even better, discover something that would advance the worlds health.
My grandma lived to 96 years of age. last 4 years were the worst. tough old lady with a steal trap mind.
I don't have to, disclosure and breaking the rules have been done, he kept disclosing.
the first time, he was given simple punishment. the second time, if he is found guilty as a traitor, his information should prove some value, therefore if he wants some freedom, he will have to cough up everything he knows. otherwise, it's a very long and slow time for him.
and the crime is treason, the highest crime in a nation, can't do much worse than that. murder is an offense to the state government, treason is to the nation.
and since he wasn't accused of treason, he felt safe to try ( which he did ) now he might have opened that. fed courts title 18 ( I think it's constitutional law article 3 ) is death or another 5 years
it happened in NY and I don't think NY or NJ have treason laws. I know ( or knew ) that Illinois and Rhode Island have them but not sure of anywhere else.
NY has this as a reference but I can't find the place where you can be convicted of treason in the state https://www.dos.ny.gov/info/co...
Sadly you are correct, but along with the bad, good can happen. Many publicly noted changes have happened in the NSA, FBI and CIA and other government branches. This guy caused change, and that was fine, but now he wants revenge, and this requires a new change in the position of his imprisonment. while he can no longer be sent to an off-site, he can be placed in full confinement for 23 hrs a day for the rest of his charges.
We should have learned from the election that good and bad things happen. sadly the bad might have eroded all the good he might have done.
I vote for 23 hr. solitary confinement for his entire stay in the prison system or a manual prison where there are no electronics ( just books ). except for the PA system.
that's funny, but we are talking about scientist which should always be above politics. and yes, the current president of the USA is a known user of bankruptcy and other tricks of the trade so as not to pay and has even said "we need to print more money"
there is not one society that I know of that really will deal with a known welcher and will actively shun him...
problem solved
Oh don't get me wrong, his "comrades" will laugh onhow sharp he was to fool the other scientist, but slowly as the influence move away, he will be sidelined
As a kid, I was friends with a true Indian Family from the wilds of the midwest. I knew more about how to live off the land than I could ever imagine, learned some real weird shit that to this day, I never worry about camping, I just know how to do things.
about deer: I learned how to deer tap. I never had the courage to try that with a bear. deer tapping is the art of stalking a deer in fresh wood in the autumn while they are rutting and mad as heck. the goal is simple, slap one in the rump and run for your life and not get raked. fastest I've ever done was 3 hours of stalking.
While some of you will look at me like I am crazy, a simple yet observable fact can be noted ( and I believe already documented in Yosemite ). Before the wolves introduction, river banks and the plains that lead up to them were lacking in tree growth. Once the wolves were established, grazing animals had to look for water in other locations or drink quickly from the past location. Wolves hunt in the grazing areas.
This, of course, needs to be revalidated since it's been at least 10 years since I've paid any attention to wolves growth and habits. But I feel that it should still hold.
if someone finds a citation to help validate I will be very grateful.
and you are right, Wolves and Humans should not mix. but the loss of cattle is minimal when you look at all the deer around. and good wolf policy should protect the rancher. Besides, who the heck goes out on a ranch without a sidearm. every rancher I know has a gun holstered just for the sake of protection from cattle or human or critter.

and ???? weapons manufacture is the lifeblood of the last 400 tech growth... Watch Makers designed a better trigger systems in the old hand cannons to matchlock's ( that's in the1600 ), that's one of the direct few that I know. 1700 we saw basic working rocket's to scare the enemy 1800 artillery shells that exploded and cause shrapnel as the outcome 1900 ( not sure of the date of this ) but better armor for ships ( I think it's called Krupp steel metal ) 1900 radio waves and proximity fuses from this point on you get the concept....
like medicine, profit from weapons design and manufacturing is huge, but it also requires a huge investment of brain power.
I believe Patton said it best “No bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country.” and he said something else like this also... perpetual peace is bullshit
I don't think the entire generation born after 1986 has a clue about the nasty normal violence I grew up with, outside of the newscast that was reported.
I do recall seeing 5 on 5 fights where it was bat's, chains and knives. blood on your hands from direct violence. Using a gun was a simple equalizer for those who could afford one.
some guy in NYC became a hero because he whipped out is short nose revolver and killed 2 muggers and left 2 more wounded. violence was common. and you strove to live in a good place.
now people are walking around thinking the world is all roses and gardens, let them feel what it's like when you have to work hard just to defend yourself as part of the life struggles ( which I don't desire for anyone )
personally, I would love to see a star-trek universe where we can live somewhat equally and get a good education and possibly expand the worldwide culture.
because I don't know, What's considered a critical mass. I read a little bit about the how many people at google protested but I'm more interested in the body count and rank.
I mean, if it's top coders in the 450K pay range before stock options then that has more weight than multiple 125K coders
in google's case, as i understand, the pay rate is somewhat related to your skill set at solving problems, so higher paid coders are a vested interest to keep in the company.
Now why I think they won't quit is not so simple. a secure job is a secure job. the job market is easy for a good coder ( which I am guessing are the one's protesting )
Problem is the letter in your file when a reference is asked and the reply is given "Fired due to Non-participation in government contracts". ( which you can say ) along with,
they were always on time and the other required stuff.
That might stop a career for many people. and thinking like a business person, I need to generate revenue, so why am I going to higher someone that MIGHT cost me a contract. NOPE... I'm going to go to the next candidate that has i higher chance of NOT costing me a contract. What's an extra 30K in pay when I got a programmer that knows how to work within the rule and apply for contracts.
that is a great response, While I don't think you were trolling, it's just a statement of what the underlying truth might be. As when at a bar, and you mumble about some news cast, you are not angry, you are reporting what you feel...
With the above said, A few things we have to note, Americans ( in this case USA ) have for A very long while not experienced massive losses of troops. WW2 was the last there I can think of 8000 dead in a 2 to 4 days
Being that I am 51 and a slight perspective buff, I asked this question to those that fought or were stateside during WW2 - Korea when I was in high school
my favorite was, what was the news you heard, ( I liked to understand how information was spread). the replies I can still recall vividly were... "I was angry when I found out more than 1000 were already dead in I-owe-Jei-ma (spelled the way they said it )" "they all died on some fuckin beach in France, 5000 of them" "jap's are sneaky, killing 1000's of our boys, on those islands" "chink's, they come at you over and over, lost 300 of my men as the sun rose"
so imagine, we have not seen death at high numbers since Korea. most of these developers are most likely Ketchup death players.
these weapons we create are designed so that we can keep the death toll down.
Now, business perspective me states' that shareholders need to file a lawsuit against firms like Google when employee cost shareholders opportunity of profit that huge, it has to come out of someone's hide. Imagine Boeing saying something dumb like that.
While the desire for destruction might seem appealing, the long-term damage to the brand would be very huge. no advantage and people would start to be turned off by his work. No, he's a great artist, he know's what he's ( or she's ) doing.
While I would like to agree with you, I feel that the first blow to corporate profits was hit when a tiny protest at Google about somethings that help the USA government. I really don't expect this to stop anytime soon... Small observation
it's very interesting to note, ( and I cite from my logistics and real estate background ) how many software and hardware firms are moving to Texas and other employer-friendly states. And I'm even seeing it happen in Florida.
Before you mention it cost so much to rent on the west coast, yes it does, but not exceeding the 38% income for 52 to 57 minutes of transit time ( bus station to office complete ) rule, the closer to work the more it cost, the longer to work the cheaper it get's. and I discovered that around the 52 to 57 minute mark is where most people feel most comfortable with public transit.
Slashdot Mirror
that was a great link. thank you
Live in the crazy street's of NJ. Knife fights were common, ER's could patch you up in no time. more slash than stab wounds
As a kid growing up in the 70's and 80's we still had a few of these types of guy. I recall
learning from one old guy how to carefully stretch ( I think it was stretch ) the copper
wires in a portable handheld radio to listen to the airplane pilots, rhymes to learn the
stars, use a vacuum gauge to tune up a car and all sorts of non important things that
now that I am older, I use a lot.
gee, how to bend metal in all 3 axis was something of a trick but you learned, drill a hole
in a rock fill it with water every day for a year, it will crack ( ice will form in the winter,
and it will split the rock on the bore hole
heck, powdered (not regular) sugar+vitamin E pill liquid, mix into a paste in the palm of
your hand, slab it over a wound, heals faster and will leave no scar ( I'm proof of that,
I have no scars even in stab wounds).
I know but I got a clear answer and I was overjoyed ... silly I know, but if you can recall wiring an s-100 bus and making it play a tune then you'll understand the happiness of it.

THANK YOU ... Such a simple and clear explanation. I was so happy to understand it properly.
I wish I had mod points so that everyone would get the concept clearly.
( may many of these opportunities happen to you again )
