OK, so you do this, then they say give it to me in plaintext, and then you're back at square 1. No means no, and face the consequences. Alternatively no means burning down the entire email service, which he did and I respect.
there is no law that says the specific employees must rewrite the phone. Only an obligation that the company do so. Employees are free to quit at any time.
I always feel bad when the people try to kick over the dog robots. I understand the point they're trying to make, but they seem to be doing it with too much glee.
that's interesting. i've often gotten that error message, but I assumed it was a browser fail and used a different browser. Can I wait it out and then the add starts? that's a dirty business on goog's part. do no evil!
you should care, cuz this year the olimpics are in Brazil, and the worlds best athletes will be traveling to Rio De Janeiro, contracting Zika virus, and spreading it back to their home countries. That's how this kind of shizz gets started!
i think you're making this too complicated. Consider the hyperbolic press. you could take some low level radioactive material, like leftovers from an xray machine, tape them to a bomb, drop it off in the middle of manhatten, and boom. people would flip a bitch. then, consider the EPA, and the task of doing a cleanup of any nuclear stuff in downtown manhattan. bitches flipping everywhere. doesn't take a big complicated setup.
do you have any reason to think the statement is even "mostly" true? to my understanding they kept turning back the doomsday clock, and in a bid to stay relevant they made it the nuclear/climate change doomsday clock.
worst case the engine is 33% efficient, which is 15kWh, not 4. Also, that's still 30x more better than batteries. a kg of fuel + a kg of engine/alternator would still be 10x more energy than 2kg of batteries. It's clear that you need a bigger drone for this to work, where the weight of the drone itself > the weight of the engine. Maybe tabletop sized? or car sized? there's a size at which it makes sense.
maybe you're overly focused on the radio shack drone world. there's more to explore than that! once you have a drone the size of what I say above, you can start to do more interesting things like search & rescue, supply drops, hunter/killer, all sorts of stuff.
Batteries have 0.5 kWh per kg, and gasoline has 45 kWh per kg. Depending on the weight of the engine and alternator, there's a size where the engine is a better choice than batteries.
As an American, I think the scientists are blowing this out of proportion. In US we're going to ban all Muslim scientists from entering the country, and nobody is worried about it.
8 oz of fuel would get you 9 kWh of electric energy. considering this is enough to drive an electric bus 4 miles, i'm sure it would be fine for some drone work. people forget how energy dense fuel is.
I don't think the noise would be a big deal. have you ever been around a quad? they're noisy as heck from the props.

pilots land and take off manually.
it's very much the point, because goog's argument in the summary is that the us shoudl legalize automated cars with no steering wheels or brakes.
the space also counts as a character. so that's 7.

that's not really fighting back. that's just being a douche. fighting back is saying no.

he didn't say anything about nazis.
also, they're such troopers even in the face of adversity. You just want to root for them, you know?

Maybe they'll be hacked to death by a mob with meat cleavers in public in broad daylight. Oh wait that only happens to bloggers.

this has been america's go-to strategy for 15 years...

once i took the initiative to count, and the best I could narrow it down to was "greater than ten". I had limited time.
> You are not going to get an efficient gas powered quad that's any smaller than a large dinner table.
ok fine, build one the size of a dinner table! that sounds awesome! give it like 12 blades and call it a dodecacopter. that shizz would be dope.

right, but the noise from a RC plane is mostly the prop anyways. youd be getting rid of that.

it's notable if they're using stainless steel instead of platinum as the catalyst, but otherwise it's just a SOFC.
