Internet of Things isn't even a thing, it's wishful thinking, and a bunch of random crap "visionaries" with no business plan are all pushing as the Next Big Thing.
But...but....VC funding! Synergy! Innovation! New thinking!
I also have a hard time believing that there is no way for him to leave the Embassy if Ecuador wanted to get him out of the Embassy.
When the U.S. says "jump," your only follow-up question had BETTER FUCKING BE "How high, sirs?" Ask the President of Bolivia just how far the U.S. can and will go to stop whistleblowers.
Can't be reproduced, data has to be doctored and cooked to within an inch of its life to stay consistent, ideological agenda overrides any pretense of scientific method.
The fact that you car has a Pandora app tells you that the car manufacturer doesn't expect the car to last very long. Pandora won't be around 15 years from now. The manufacturer just told you that your car won't be either.
No, I'm pretty sure that wasn't what they meant by including it.
I recently bought a new car and thought I would never use any of this fancy new tech either (just keep it simple). I was upgrading from an old car that had almost no tech.
But then I discovered the dashboard apps, Pandora in particular. Now I've went from car tech Luddite to car tech believer. It's fucking awesome. Goodbye AM and FM radio, and your shitty stations with music I don't want to hear! HELLO 21st CENTURY!
He can write a C++ compiler using only javascript. He can build a robust modern MMO with no bugs in 2 days, using only a Commodore 64 and a case of Red Bull. He can promise an application to solve all your company's problems, and actually deliver it !! And he always puts pros before hoes He's Davy, Davy Brogramar...master of all programming!
I think we just need to change the paradigm here. Ultimately, we need to build synergy with some adaptive learning mechanisms, using a community focused approach. Maybe we could come up with some ideas for an iterative development of some new models that are more learning oriented.
Comcast doesn't have any competition. They have monopolies in their cable internet markets. Verizon has basically stopped deploying FIOS. Google Fiber is deploying at such a glacial pace that it will be sometime next century before they pose any real threat. Municipal fiber is outlawed in most states. And AT&T's DSL service is weak tea even in comparison to Comcast's existing offerings.
Exactly. The only voices that really get "heard" in Washington are those that come with the gift of big campaign contributions or with the threat of a lot of bad PR. It's been that way pretty much since the beginning, though it's gotten a LOT worse more recently (with the rise of huge megacorporations, rising campaign costs, and the effective removal of all restrictions on campaign contributions).
I suppose then that the USSR's Mars 3 explorer [wikipedia.org] in 1971 must be a figment of my imagination.
YOU GODDAMNED COMMIE! How DARE you talk about anything but *American* firsts in space?!? Haven't you watched any American-made documentary on that era? Only NASA did anything in the space race. The Commies only launched a satellite, and some other vague stuff maybe that spawned AMERICA to develop the GREATEST, BIGGEST DICK SPACE PROGRAM EVER and plant a giant fuck-you flag on the moon!!

Next up, Joseph Smith got Mormon tablets from guy named Steve, not actual angel! Film at eleven!!
From the "religion of peace"?!? Preposterous!
Hope you don't get shot or blown up by followers of the "religion of peace" for your work.
If weather supports global warming, then it's evidence of climate change.
If it doesn't, then it's just weather.

Always throwing me off planes. I'M NOT DRUNK, I'M FINE!

Not such a failure NOW, huh, Atari?
Because it will keep his liberal constituents distracted and cheering while he quietly approves a bunch of new oil drilling deals there.

Yep, that's modern science alright!

Doesn't Pandora require an internet connection?
It streams through my cellphone. As long as I have it with me, my car apps all work through it.

This is government work. XP was probably the latest OS to make it through their 10-year IT software approval process.
Finally, some good comes from pain-in-the-ass government purchasing requirements!
So one can get a 4 year HS degree and 2 year AA, now combined into a 6 year HS+AA degree. Brilliant!
Keep in mind that these students aren't very good at math.
The issue is most minorities never get the oppertunity to raise to the top. They do not have access to the same sources as everyone else.
Neither does some poor white kid in Appalachia. Is IBM going to give him a job too?
It means he saw that once on a pamphlet.

The only way to NEVER be able to copy digital content is to not allow anyone to see it.
And the only way to have every studio in Hollywood pull all their content from Netflix, Hulu, etc. is to tell them they can't put any DRM on it.

A politician lying to get elected?!?!?? HOLY SHIT! Has someone alerted the press to this???
