Legal trouble? Who's talking about legal trouble? I'm talking about the physical and spatial problems of multiple tethered moving objects in a 3D environment. Are you a lawyer?
I really don't want (amateur) pilots flying swarms of anything over my head at the beach/ski-slope/swimming pool. And tethering the drones to the pilots will mitigate what exactly?
I would strongly advise anyone not to "strike it out" completely on their own, but to find one or two partners at least. If you can't convince one knowledgeable person of the validity of your plan(s) it might be time to rethink them : ).
"but then, they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much, and I kept the staples for the Swingline stapler and it's not okay because if they take my stapler then I'll set the building on fire... ".
Computers are an old hobby/major interest but my main business is event organization/production. Some DMX, PLC's, Vellemancards, 3DMax involved for light-shows, robotics or projections and such but not much beyond that (and I hardly even do that myself anymore).
There have been times (since the start of my own business in 1989) that I've had a salary, due to sudden lack of funds, inspiration or motivation, but usually not for very long.
You should change your job by starting your own business, and you should do that as soon as possible. Avoid jobs altogether if possible. Life is to short to sell your time and energy for tokens.
The relationship between the CIA and the BND predates the CIA : ) and is at times complex. This book goes into some of the background for those that are interested:
People no longer have an expectation of privacy, according to Mark Zuckerberg. Corporations are people, according to recent laws. Ergo please stop whining, what goes around comes around, much like an enrichment centrifuge PLC : ).
I generally get my ideas by thinking and reading about a subject and discussing it with friends? Here's an English article with (some of) the research that I base (some of) my ideas on;
IQ tests test a set of skills which are heavily culturally influenced. A San bushman could score 50 on an IQ test and you could score 150, but in the Namib desert you would be depending on his skills and intuitions. Neither forms of intelligence are mostly genetic in my opinion. The parents of geniuses aren't necessarily geniuses themselves, although often well off enough to supply their progeny with ample food, free time and education etc. to develop themselves. The children of geniuses are not always geniuses, even with all the advantages of having genius parents. Ergo other factors must be, if not dominant, at least weighing in heavily.
Estimates in the academic research of the heritability of IQ have varied from below 0.5[2] to a high of 0.8 (where 1.0 indicates that monozygotic twins have no variance in IQ and 0 indicates that their IQs are completely uncorrelated).[4] Turkheimer (2003) found that for children of low socioeconomic status heritability of IQ falls almost to zero.[5] IQ heritability increases during early childhood, but it is unclear whether it stabilizes thereafter.[6] A 1996 statement by the American Psychological Association gave about.45 for children and about.75 during and after adolescence.[7] A 2004 meta-analysis of reports in Current Directions in Psychological Science gave an overall estimate of around.85 for 18-year-olds and older.[8] The general figure for heritability of IQ is about 0.5 across multiple studies in varying populations.[9]
In seventy years time people might well be restoring the Utah Data Center as a monument to the War on Terror. Although unpopular (/phony) wars do tend to get less monuments I guess.
"IQ is mostly genetic, therefore heritable" Woah there cowboy, that's just utter poppycock. IQ is basically a measurement of your social/economic advantages in education and a nurturing environment (http://www.unc.edu/~rooney/iq.htm) so little wonder people from certain social/economic backgrounds score higher. IQ is what IQ tests measure. Genetics is just one small part of the picture. Trust me, every baby is born stupid, no matter what your mother told you : )
I come from game-theory so my first point is the odds: if a certain background gives you a 25% chance to achieve your goals and another background gives you a 00.0001% chance of achieving the same goal with the same nature but a different nurture, natural talent almost doesn't factor anymore. So mathematically we are NOT getting the best and the brightest, it's just a genetic lottery. Secondly pertinent factors are pertinent, whether you choose to believe something or not is not a factor. (Children's) healthcare, nutrition and available (parental) credit are repeatedly and internationally shown to effect education and thus (self)employment possibilities.

Get your cars and your guns of my ski-slope ; ).
I guess what you're trying to say is that you're a lawyer?

Are you a lawyer?
It's all like, interconnected, man.

The only thing you live to regret are the risks you didn't take.
You should change your job by starting your own business, and you should do that as soon as possible. Avoid jobs altogether if possible. Life is to short to sell your time and energy for tokens.

At this rate we should have full encryption in no time!

Stronger magnetic fields could also be used to reinforce antimatter containment, although they might not prevent an impending warp core breach.
I'm off to buy roughly 101 fridge magnets, and you'll be seeing me in the Beer Book of Bets shortly.
Dear Mr. Korbulon from Vogon,
Welcome to Earth
Please don't demolish it
We would be in dearth.
So much like the Native Americans?

I repeat "found that for children of low socioeconomic status heritability of IQ falls almost to zero", yeah, must be genetics ; ).
What is this "job interview" you speak of? You don't seriously expect me to interview people? I have a HR-department for that ; ).
