Protip: It works on people too, so they probably want to leave the grate on. Especially since people are the only animals that will actually try to find the hole, which would increase the likelyhood that they would fall in it by a severe amount.
"Hey, Bubba, didn't you say there were bear traps around here? Ya think you could show em to me?" "Sure, Truett, they're right over heaaaaaAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!"
Yeah, some smarts won't be acceptable. The advice "Stop getting involved in so many fucking wars," could probably improve our national security a great deal if followed, but probably wouldn't be seen as "smart."
Einstein had trouble with basic math as a child. His teachers thought he was an idiot. You have to wonder how many "smartest" never happened because they got beat up on the schoolyard and gave up on their dreams.
Another thing we could is invest 100 billion dollars into African agriculture. You could grow a huge amount of food in Africa, it's just the initial investment that's the problem, building roads, transferring farming gear, etc..
Give it the ability to back up? Why the hell would we want to waste our time doing that? We'll just figure things out after we make the whole tunnel. We made double-doodly-sure that there's nothing in the way, so we're set to go.
We really need to find a way to start over with the US. Don't know how that could work without being worse in the interim, but we are in dire straits.(sp?)
Maybe pay $2-$3 an hour and have access to a game library the size of the Steam library. The creaters get paid according to how much each person actually plays, which means they'd have to deal with the inflated numbers you get when someone is in a game and simply walks away. Or not, if they want to be assholes about it.
I predict it will be DNA and/or RNA similar to that on Earth. And I'm a Jesus freaky Christian, so I'm asserting God put it there and Jesus is Lord.
Of course, if nothing's found there, ignore me. Otherwise, if it's truly alien DNA, I will be very shocked. Alien DNA would definitely screw with my Christian belief system. Especially if we didn't even have the same nutrients in common.
Technology is always advancing, and one of the things that's being worked on is buttons on touchphones that physically exist, but only when you need them. The first iterations will probably be dedicated buttons(still capable of being transient) for, wait for it, QWERTY keyboard setups. Later on, you'll probably be able to customize it to different games and needs, maybe something that lets you navigate tv shows by touch so you don't have to squint or turn on a light. I know some remotes kinda work like that, but a customized version would be spectacular.
Researchers know the problem exists, their solutions just aren't profitable yet.
Sure it can, we just haven't discovered the formula yet. Even if there's randomness involved that can be described with a formula.
The problem comes when you try to describe things mathematically. Chess has simple rules, even a child can understand them, and yet chess still isn't "solved."
I don't understand the appeal of transparent displays. Sure, it looks great in scifi shows and movies, but what happens when you want to do something without people seeing what you're doing? Now, instead of just worrying about shoulder-surfers, you've got the additional problem of people simply reading backwards print.
I'd be happy if they just hover. If they can fuck, going from hard to pliable would not only be a good thing, it would be an incredibly necessary thing.

What if we call it a barrier beyond which people read the story and say to themselves,"That's so frickin cool?"
Symbolic barriers are just as real as physical barriers.
Not to be offensive, but do you have autism or OCD? Because this conversation has a rather pedantic topic.

It's funny no matter what political party you belong to, or it should be.

and might give a bit back to the rest of the world's economy, especially where electronics are common.
The US is pretty evil lately, but if this tech pans out, I'll be thrilled. Might make things so cheap they're done locally.

So you're saying someone has literally seen an American birth certificate from Obama, and not a copy or an assertion that it definitely exists?

I think they're bad enough as it is without adding unwarranted accusations.
If we had unlimited fuel we could travel at near the speed of light through space.
Seriously, though, just because it hasn't been implemented yet doesn't make it news.
I've never understood the mouth-breathing insult. How does my having an odd nasal passage affect my intelligence?
Upgraded laser tag that actually works properly?

lol, maybe you just have a dirty mind, I didn't "get it" til I saw your post.
Even wrestlers can occasionally make good movies. Bizarre, but true.
This is true. Whether you're arrested or taken into protective custody, it looks the same to the neighbors.
