I love being a moderator now and then and I know not everyone would agree with my assessments, and I'm certain they have good reason now and then, but this consistent down-voting of reasonable observation peculiar to this thread is alarming.
It's a correct statement. I'm a coder and the people I hang with don't know bullshit from wild honey about science. They know the scientific method, because that's what it takes to do rudimentary stuff like debug.
However, the same smart people love Duck Dynasty because it's so totally real and stuff..
And, they also "believe" in a 6,000 year old Earth.
The United States came out of a depression via WWII.
That business model has been embraced ever since.
It's important that we continue to be at war because in times of peace, our youth have few jobs, and Big Business' CEO salaries are hard to justify.
Notice the drive to, "Hire A Veteran!"
The same thing happened after we lost the war in Vietnam and it's happening again after we lost the war in Iraq and we lost the war in Afghanistan.
America is in the business of providing war materials, people, and technology.
We have the best in weaponry and we invest trillions of dollars and shitloads of lives and injured.
Still, we have never won a war since that eye-opener revenue stream, , WWII.
For Big Business to continue ramping up to support CEO salaries; for politicians to continue to support those CEOs for campaign funds, and for the US to prevent economic collapse, fucking with the Middle East will continue.
Americans don't have a Plan B revenue stream.
Meanwhile, preaching patriotism and shunning those who don't embrace that farce, providing a megaphone for terrorists, serves to cement the idea that We The People must do whatever we can to support the salaries of Big Business CEO salaries.
Anyone who disagrees with me is an unpatriotic bitch or bastard (as applies) and stuff.
Shadow bubble? Of course, that doesn't mean a bubble won't eventually form in tech stocks, or that one isn't already being inflated elsewhere in world of technology.
We could make user's desktop computers much, much smarter than the user.
"We're sorry, but our predictive algorithms, which run a shitload of scenarios well into the future, indicate that the action you just chose, like clicking on a link or attachment, is contraindicated and your computer is locked, air-gapped, and nonfunctional in an operative sense and will remain so until IT, who has already been contacted, so there's no need to call, arrives at your location to reinforce your prior security training with a bop on the nose with a rolled up newspaper."
They were right in thinking that a piece of software that injects crap into and modifies web pages served via https can be considered useful by anyone.

Everybody loses everything, given enough old age.
I think you should be allowed to marry other transmutes.
Shut up.
Whoever you are, you're a bunch of assholes.
AC is right.

Exercising reading skills would suffice. We all rely on experts to supply us with answers when we are out of our wheelhouse.
The top climate scientist have issued the message.
The next time the suits question your coding expertise, remember this moment.
Why the fuck is this modded down?

Good grief.
... doesn't mean they really give a shit.
Harsh, but cryptic.
This, and it's kinda obvious:
When in danger
When in doubt
Run in circles
Scream and shout
Even if it's a useless fucking idea, it's an idea.
This.
Monopoly money by another name would stink as bad.
Yes, just like we wiped out North Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and just how we've just about wiped out ISIS and stuff.
This.

This comes at the end of TFA.
The NSA is not charged with defending the government from hackers.
The NSA is fucked up already ... let's not give them more stuff to fuck up.

whom.
... Manning and Snowden.
This.
Is the goddam US government competent or not?
They let Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden walk off with the goods and now they can't handle a breach from outsiders.
Bunch of fucking Keystone cops.
... here you have an opportunity to ask a super scientist some philosophical questions of consequence to Hawking's field of expertise and you blow it?
Fuck.
So, to boil it down to the facts, you were not the victim of identity theft and you are not likely to be the victim of identity theft.
Is that correct?
This.
It's stupid to continue having high blood pressure once a breach has been revealed.
People should change ailments at least every 60 days.
You're an asshole for leaving out Perry.
... because it is another hammer-strike on the chisel that's helping shape the body of evidence required to successfully try breach cases like this.
The plaintiff has no standing because 1.) no identity theft actually occurred, 2.) there is no strong indicator that identity theft will occur.
As litigants sharpen the evidentiary needle, courts are going to be boxed in to a decision just as soon as a victim meets criteria 1.) and 2.).
It'not, "if," it's "when."

They just got the wrong "anyone."
