At-will doesn't mean that. Sure, the principle that they can get rid of you for any reason at any time is the gist of it, but only just so. I've seen some of the worst employees be immune to being shitcanned even though their boss doesn't want them. Where I work right now, boss only managed to get rid of one off those after he was snoring loudly in a meeting. And yes, my state is completely at-will in addition to being right to work, and my employer only has offices in this state.
It reminded me of one of those prison visitation posters reminding you of everything that's against the law. And WTF is a dead name? Like I can't say my dad's name because he's dead or some shit like that? No really I only just now googled it and it's retarded how like every fucking week there's a new word describing some kind new (completely nonsensical) gender or some new sexual orientation, or some way of identifying properties therein. Too bad the book was already out of date at publication.
Though seriously, this is a really good way to piss off developers and either they become interested in something else, or they just fork it.
Microsoft simply felt that it's UI wasn't modern enough, so they needed to modernize it. Modern meaning 50s era Scandinavian magazines, of course... Kind of like windows 1.x/2.x, only with a smaller color palette and no divider lines, this way it has to be really bright and contrasty colors, like a Fisher-Price toy.
A TV box? You mean like one of those POSs you buy on eBay that advertises free cable for life and is otherwise built like crap? That's not Google's fault that you bought one. And why on Earth are you using a keyboard and mouse on a TV? That's retarded unless you're sitting up close to it like a computer, in which case, why not just use a computer? Besides, Android isn't designed very well for keyboard and mouse. Hell, the apps themselves aren't either (hence the lack of scaling windows.) That's what chrome os is for.
I personally use a shield tv and I've never had any problems using Google play.
But by all means, go fork Android to your heart's content and go rally a community behind your idea of having a version of Android designed for keyboard and mouse. People do it all the time, though I've not yet heard of one with your specific goal, and I think most developers will find it a rather pointless goal since few applications work well that way.
SJW is a term coined by SJWs themselves, and at the time it was meant as a compliment. But at some point, people who aren't activists realized just how smug they are and how entitled they feel, (see the Hugh Mungus lady, and just how bitchy she is when she misconstrues everything as being an affront to women) and just how they're favored topics (identity politics, for example) are really a load of total bullshit.
Antibiotic resistance doesn't come from raising livestock, it comes from hospitals. They also don't abuse antibiotics either, rather they only use them when the animal is sick or was likely exposed to infection. Antibiotics for big animals are expensive (you need lots of it) so contrary to popular vegan urban myth, they're not used indiscriminately. The purpose behind antibiotics is to be humane, otherwise you let the animal suffer out the infection. Doing otherwise is abuse, which it seems that the movement to end antibiotics seems to want. Not that it makes a difference anyways, the antibiotics have to be out of the animal's system in order to be legally slaughtered and sold, as per FDA rules.
No, in fact I prefer to avoid labels altogether because they just encourage you to join echo chambers and participate in group think. Because of this, you're extremely unlikely to find another person whose views are similar to mine, and IMO we could use more of that, and less of telling people to vote just for the sake of voting. I'm also not a moderate or a centrist as I have some very strong opinions, nor is there any such thing as these. These are stupid terms, along with the equally useless notion of comparing how left or right two people or countries are compared to one another as if political viewpoints are only one-dimensional.
If you do insist on giving me a label however, I think "classical liberal" would be the most appropriate (it doesn't quite fit though,) and that has few things in common with today's liberals. Today's liberals are willing to do away with free speech if it means that they can stop people from ever being offended, they can avoid exposure to opinions they disagree with, and they believe that physically assaulting people who do these things is acceptable and should be legally sanctioned (including stealing a MAGA hat.) There isn't anything liberal about that.
Similar examples can be found elsewhere in tech. You took up CPUs; the first commercially manufactured microprocessor by Intel, the Intel 4004, was designed under the lead of Frederico Faggin [wikipedia.org], an Italian. 2 indian engineers, Vinod Dham [wikipedia.org] and Rajeev Chandtasekhar [wikipedia.org] were part of the core team that developed the 486 chip. And so on.
Keep in mind that I'm talking about recent times, as this penis size comparison began by ranking of the US at #11. If we want to go by raw innovation, and in recent times, the US would be #1 with China at a distant #2.
While I agree with this sentiment overall, something I'd like to point out: you're the wealthiest country at the moment, and will remain so for another decade or so at least, China's inevitably going to bypass you on grounds of size, but in terms of per capita GDP you're going to remain on the top.
Keep in mind I'm not comparing the US to any one country in Europe, rather I'm comparing it to the whole EU.
Stand alone, fire walled, etc. NO communication back to anyone one. No logs, except those kept locally.
Most of the random questions you ask are answered using search results. Most of the other questions (i.e. weather, "skills") can't feasibly work without connectivity for reasons ranging from not enough CPU power on the speaker to needing live information to needing to communicate with other devices.
People I deal with all the time I recognize by facial features alone, but I've had people come up and talk to me like we've met before and I have no idea who they are. That is usually only people I spoke to for less than an hour or so, except for people in memorable circumstances, like interviews.
In my case, it could be that I usually don't look people in the face when I speak to them, because when I hear a particular name I mentally picture their face and nothing else. And if that is why, then this 1 in 50 statistic could be overblown.
A think a good test would be whether you could see a picture of Donald Trump and distinguish it from any other bleach blonde old guy with a spray tan.
They are correct in that the federal government is a de-facto republic, though when you examine the US as a whole and include state and local governments, particularly in the case of referenda, we can be considered both.
He is acting on behalf of the guy that was elected. That's pretty much the way all government jobs work. Joe Dirt doesn't vote for the clerk at the DMV, who can make decisions that have significant legal implications. Joe Dirt also doesn't vote for SCOTUS, which in many ways has more power than the president.
Other than the lack of a widely used multi-site micropayment service that respects viewers' privacy.
Actually, coinminers could do that easily. The problem is sorting out how much of your cpu usage is fair. I would argue that anything that uses roughly the same or less than the energy that it takes to stream an automatically playing audio ad (no video) in real-time.
Killing or forbidding an invention or industry because a government decides that it is bad for society is perhaps the most defining economic element of fascism.

In other words, it's not an alphabet at all, rather it's a syllabary.
Interesting... Have you published a white paper on how such a feat might be accomplished?
I made plenty. I just sold the shit when I noticed it had an absurd $16k price tag, and now some other hapless sap is holding that bag.

Well some people have to stay in Detroit. If you die you have to go to hell, and if you die in hell you have to go to Detroit.

That should depend on the game. I could see 6000 if the score was counted in increments of 50 or some other multiplier. It's not unheard of.

Realize that I'm not a Republican first.

Oh and something to add before you reply:
Killing or forbidding an invention or industry because a government decides that it is bad for society is perhaps the most defining economic element of fascism.
And who decides what is a benefit to society and what isn't?
