I doubt it was a fish tank thermometer only, it was probably a fish tank controller that had a thermometer as one of it's functions. On something like a saltwater tank where you might have thousands of dollars in corals and such the controller is used to regulate temperature, chemicals and so on. One tiny slip up in parameters and thousands of dollars are down the drain. IOT for that sort of things makes total sense.
Network isolated and all that for sure though.
On the other hand if the casino's security were properly setup even an IOT device wouldn't be a concern as it would have required at least two weaknesses to got to this point. In my opinion you have to treat an internal network as if it was public anyhow.
Most signatures are just chicken scratches anyhow. I learned cursive in second grade and never used it again after fifth, it was a complete waste of time.
Office is essential to your typical office worker. I use word/excel daily and powerpoint at least once a month. Being able to read those documents on a phone/tablet is interested... not sure I care about being able to edit them though.
Based on my experience I disagree with your (often cited) theory. Of the cities I have lived in that decided to build roads vs ones that did not the only thing that has been a variable is the quality of life and drive times. People actually prefer to live in the suburbs and will still chose to live there regardless of traffic.
I am a developer. Why would I waste my time on the the tiny fraction of people who turn off javascript? Easy answer I wouldn't. It isn't about being lazy at all it is more along the lines of why waste my time and limit page capabilities to satisfy a nonexistent demographic of tinfoil hat wearing basement dwellers who turn of javascript?
Who cares what it is called if it works. Just have a mindset if continual process improvement. If something causes pain and isn't offering value remove it. Don't be afraid to try new stuff etc.
If you don't care what the people on your "team" are doing you aren't actually on a team at least as far as your work goes you are working independently on a project. So yea daily meetings would be pointless.
Wouldn't altitude and velocities in geosynchronous orbit have to be exactly identical by definition? Otherwise it wouldn't be geosynchronous orbit and stuff would drift forward or backward.
I don't like windows or linux all that well (they are just tools) but for a user desktop I far, far, far, prefer windows to anything linux and I run quite a few linux machines as novelty (they are fun to mess with). If I had to use linux as my desktop I could but it is buggy.
Common linux distros break far too often and due to how the popular distros work require re-installing more often than windows (the upgrades break fairly often).
I understand it just fine. I run linux on a server and have it installed in various VMs to mess with. I wouldn't dream of running it as my main machine as I feel Linux just isn't ready for prime time on the desktop.
I have no problem fixing various things when they come up but they come up far, far too frequently for a consumer level OS.
Whatever it does RDP is far, far faster and more versatile than X forwarding. X forwarding is slow and buggy to the point that I use vnc on my unix servers and vnc is awful.
I live in Olathe and we have had fiber to the curb for a few years. I had 25 up/down for a while and downgraded it to 10/10 to save cost. I didn't notice a huge difference other than large files. Of course the difference between 25 and 10 is pretty small maybe with gb I would find new ways to use the internet that I had not considered before.
You don't understand reflection evidently. Reflection is a core feature of languages such as C# and java. You simply can't get rid of it without completely redesigning the language.
This isn't a problem with reflection as much as sloppy programming. There is zero reason why a competent development team couldn't make reflection perfectly safe.
Reflection in C# is used all the time. If you have written anything more complicated than hello world you have definitely used it. Not directly but the APIs you call use it.
Do a serious calculation on what you pay in vs what you get back. Also consider what you are likely to get back on eventual medicare spending. Insurance will eventually drop you when you get old.
Believe it or not most middle class people break even. Now if you don't have (or don't plan to have) children you are correct.
My experience has always been the opposite. Linux for me has been far less tolerant of bad hardware than windows but honestly both have done well for me over the years.
In my area the jobs are looking for "software engineers" when they mean developers. To get past HR drones the resumes need to reflect this. They could call the role turbo monkey chicken designer and I would claim that title as well (provided I was qualified for it of course).

It has mechanisms to lock you out until you sync with itunes or erase your device after 10 tries. It depends on how you have it configured.
Every uber car I have been in was far, far, far nicer than cabs.
I have used urber many, many times and each and every time the car was nicer, the person was less scary and the experience was MUCH more convenient.
For me it has zero to do with price (I am not paying, my company does).

That is actually a common anecdote in agile training/books.
You describe a bad team and bad management. No methodology will help there.

Saturn V program had payload to LEO of 120,000kg. Falcon Heavy 53,000kg.

It holds it own on a road course with a professional driver.
My experience has always been the opposite. Linux for me has been far less tolerant of bad hardware than windows but honestly both have done well for me over the years.
The perfect game for me would be a KSP + Orbiter Mix.
For those looking at orbiter be sure to get the directx plugin. Windows 7 pretty much requires it for decent performance @ full screen.
