Goddammit, you can't even get pedantry right. Sure the president has pardoned people who haven't been tried, but that was a different president. This one could, but all signals point to that not happening.
Pardon means no crime happened, no record. I can imagine some form of clemency after a conviction, but no pardon up front. The evidence for Manning was pretty much available on WikiLeaks.
What Snowden leaked is not known, especially since the reputable news organizations were asked to be careful about what was reported. The actual extent of his actions are not known, so it's hard to know what is being pardoned. I wouldn't agree to that as Commander In Chief.
One, Compelling a person to say things is kind of tyrannical, isn't it? We have completely disintegrated as a society by placing the "feelings" of everyone above everyone else's feelings. Sorry cupcake, but YOUR feelings do not trump (no pun intended) my feelings.
I feel like you're kind of a sanctimonious shitbag. I could go on, but I feel like I've made my point.
Imagine being in real life when someone like you says stupid things, and then everyone decides to agree with you and label you the sanctimonious shitbag for the rest of your life. Table for one for sanctimonious shitbag. Now attending, sanctimonious shitbag. May I please speak with raging ignorant asshole? Oh sorry, I apparently reached sanctimonious shitbag by mistake.
Sure it doesn't hurt your feelings now, internet tough guy, but you consider how this really shakes out if we go with the way you want, which is really just for *you* to be able to say anything you want.
This only makes sense if you want it to fail. Because the companies that can afford it will benefit, locking out business that genuinely needs employees, but can't afford it.
$100k minimum prices some people out, but they are probably paying close to that now, so it would be statistically insignificant. Unlimited maximum means Blue Chips and unicorns get the help they need, while everyone in price sensitive industries and services like B2B suck it.
The idea was supposed to be prevailing wage, which is a solved problem via the Service Contract Act and Wage Determination. H1B was supposed to be that for white collar workers, since salaries are fluid and negotiated. But it allows people to work where they are needed.
Denying visas to anyone replacing a current or recent employee or contractor is a better path, as well as priority hiring for people with work history and experience to replace a visa holder.
Not going to happen. Administration does not want to pardon for blanket offenses, only to learn that something really dangerous leaked, and just hasn't shown up.
Obama wants a trial with evidence, and if that shows nothing more than what we have seen, it is a crapshoot at best, but possible.
And Trumpster Fire will probably put him in a Russian gulag, so time ran out.
You idiots arguing the pedantry of possibilities ignore context and reality. And in reality, the only reason Obama has to pardon Snowden is poking Trumpster Fire in the eyeballs. Which would be great, but the political blowback for any democrat running for the next 4 years would be trouble. All of the Russian ties news would be shouted down by "at least he didn't pardon an actual traitor."
No, and you're stupid. They don't guarantee against data loss, at all. If they break your hard drive you get a replacement, no data retrieval effort.
They see a crime and report it, and follow the directions of the popo, which will typically be stop touching it. There is no chain of custody, and you are free to fight that, as well as bring up the possibility of someone wanting a quick payday.
If the prosecution decides it can't provide a basic rebuttal, you may see the charges dropped.
Everything you said applies to each case, and should be considered in each. That's why we have a legal system, instead of summary execution. That doesn't mean we throw out every case just because some armchair lawyer sees potential issues based on a summary of the facts.
Just an arbitrary citizen. You are not an agent of the government for reporting a crime. The reward is not payment for doing a job. And there is no legal decision or law that I'm aware of saying otherwise.
That will not come up in this case, because of all of the other clearly illegal things that happened. So it won't change now.
They want a software solution, so here it is. Software firewall that blocks outgoing data based on a public whitelist, and incoming connections on a whitelist based on local devices. If a severity threat is detected, disable internet.
Security threat detection function can do all kinds of heuristics, then return true.
For someone who asks nerds for advice, this is terrible. Growing a backbone isn't something you get right the first time, guaranteed. So you make noise, and give someone an opportunity to fire you. Given the slightly incredible environment, with no official channels available, firing is the likely outcome.
You could land another job, give notice, then spend two weeks verbally detailing your reasons for leaving. But I agree that the exit interview is the only real opportunity to make your case.
In a different environment, grow a spine would work, but not here.
3D means height, width, and depth, and what we labeled 3D since the 50's in movies does that. The viewmaster, and similar experiments since photography started, were popular, but inconvenient. It was 3 dimensions
Feel free to come up with a real reason, but this isn't it.
Also, the lenticular displays in EVO 3D phones, and some LG TVs kinda shoots the glasses argument out.
3D was rushed to market with low frame rates and heavy glasses, wad expensive, and had little content. I want 3D, but buying the equipment and content is cost prohibitive. It would become a lifestyle, not a hobby, and not just an alternate medium.
It will remain niche until it is nearly effortless, which includes glasses, but everything else as well.
It clearly falls under YRO, as this is just a government extension spy agency acting as a taxi service. Business getting involved with personal decisions has long been a staple in these hallowed halls.Given the age of consent, the girl was probably well within her rights, and this meddler got her age wrong by 25%. Doubt that was accidental.
So yeah, your rights are being trampled on and you don't want to know about it? Clearly you aren't a 16 year old involuntary full contact massage therapist, and you don't care about their rights. Monster!
Also, labels tried repeatedly to increase the streaming royalty, squeezing some providers out completely. The revenue surge is as much due to royalty increases, as streaming activity.
A few more years and they will look for another increase, in an attempt to kill the golden goose.
They have to accept that they lost control, that streaming is their revenue stream now. Of course the best outcome is everyone goes indie and the RIAA dies quickly, but that's just a dream.
Disk io has had priority, such that in NT 4 and above, you can watch controls get painted line by line, if io is happening. Even if no swapping is taking place.
This was discounted in NT 4 as underpowered servers, in W2K as cheap memory or HDD, and in Vista as shitty coding. But the problem remains in 7 at least.
Heavy io with minimal CPU means nearly zero CPU to spend at all. Even if io is only intermittently heavy.
Dark matter is not a theory, afaik. It's a placeholder meaning that a theory is needed. Modified Newtonian Gravity is one of many theories trying to fill in the blanks, as an example so you see the difference. I think that's still an hypothesis at this point, just being a framework for free variables that can be tweaked to fit observation.
Still news for nerds, and as long as people correct people incorrectly, someone will jump your shit for it.
I've left at least one mistake so you can learn a bit, correct me, and feel better about this debacle.
More importantly, the web browser makes the difference between recommended and not. Ignore all of the hardware, its the browser.
I'm curious now, exactly what they are testing. I'm guessing Facebook and YouTube, or similar. Ajax and video. Not my use case, but certainly a popular one.
I guess I won't make fun of Microsoft pimping their browser efficiency any more...
Anyone who starts a suggestion with "Simply" automatically does not understand the legal system. If it were simple, everyone would have done it, and no class action needed.
You worked 30 hours, how was that divided that particular week? How many days were you owed a lunch break? No way to prove it without discovery. How do you initiate discovery? I guess it is quite simple.
Oh, good, pseudo intellectual cynicism has dismissed the whole topic. No need to discuss this, ilsaloving has seen through all of the smoke bombs and has clearly articulated the fundamental explanation.
Enjoy the karma boost you get from people who only want to reward opinions matching their own.
Other than marketing and lobbying, you described how science works. Results gradually get accepted, and are hard to replace. Marketing and lobbying are part of Capitalism, take it or leave it. And poorly selected study groups are common to both incompetence and greed. No surprises there.
Prozac set back depression studies by 20 years, because it seemed to be a solved problem. Mavericky researchers had an uphill battle to prove it wasn't.
Currently, deep brain stimulation is laughed at, while researchers can take a simple brain scan and identify who will and will not benefit from it instead of pills or cognitive therapy.
It has to be published, accepted, and then taught to the next generation of doctors, because doctors are people, and people are stubborn and stupid in order to be a mainstream treatment.
The only quick way to get a treatment accepted is for insurance companies to say they will cover the new one but not pills. Or at least they demand lab analysis or brain scan to determine the potential effectiveness first, forcing doctors to learn. Because good patient outcomes are cost effective for insurance.
When you get to the end of the long post, ask yourself how much is relevant to the thing you are replying to. In this case the answer is none at all.
Which is a shame, because you made good points that might fit in well in other threads.
I only care to correct someone who thinks that a ten year implementation is grounds for never starting. The privacy concerns were noted elsewhere and self identified as redundant.
You misunderstand the summary. It will never tell you 100% safety, but it can say 100% unsafe, followed by the car reporting unsafe is clear. To alert and warn, not issue an all clear. Maybe read the article, or at least skip the editorializing, meditate, and understand.
Any affected party can separate from the class action and sue separately, if they feel it is unfair.
But really, lots of employees worked without breaks for years, and didn't take it to someone to enforce. They were part of the problem. They worried about losing their jobs, and didn't take action, letting it happen to themselves and others.
Is it fair to give everyone who was an accomplice, their actual dollar amount as calculated? The only real victim is the representative who participated on behalf of the class. Everyone else is an accomplice. This is not always true of class action, but in employment suits it usually is.
They can take their pay stubs and try to recall which days they were shorted, and provide witnesses or other corroboration for each one, because they failed to take notes.
They may end up with $1000 for six weeks of work. As always, innocent until proven guilty applies to business too, and you can't just point to a class action result and a calculator, and get paid.

One less bag of horsehit feeding the gullible. It's not clearly biased, but it is noise where more signal is needed.
Losing 50 people to win the war on facts is fine at thus point. I'll happily pay my share of unemployment insurance for them.

I make over $90k, and my house is paid off. I grew up, and it worked out just fine.
I paid off the house mostly at $55k or less, average in other words. Doesn't take much, a grown up attitude and a goal.
For a short time, yes. After that, no.
Adding child court concepts to adult court doesn't make sense, but punishing people for known, temporary deficiencies is not a step forward.
