Consider terminating electricity or natural gas utility in the middle of winter because of non-payment. Then consider what level of service utility is necessary to maintain a functional citizen that won't disrupt society.
No man is an island. If you think otherwise please stop taking advantage of all infrastructure for even 1 month and get back to us with your considered opinions afterwards (assuming you are even alive).
I have been thinking along similar lines, not nearly so clearly as OP. As to where, declare it by fiat based on population. A new person enters society - a new potential stream of wealth is added to the national budget. Death would need to be a factor in the budget but not sure how under this idea - something like fiat currency is devalued by the UBI value (not their earned addition though) of the person, but spread out over a generation of time.
Don't let the business definition of afford be conflated with the common interpretation. The objective of every business model to obtain the maximum compensation that you can afford for the proffered product... of course they want it more affordable.
While I agree with his position, the method is (IMHO) wrong. What Elon is requesting is that the government take away from fossil fuel subsidies by a post-facto tax on awarded monies. The inefficiencies of administrative churn will impose a longer time to balancing energy subsidies. A more straight forward solution would be to simply mandate that the sum of all non-renewable energy subsides on a per joule basis be strictly less than the aggregate renewable energy subsidies with a monotonically decreasing non-renewable to renewable subsidy ratio over time. Let the administration have control of the ratio co-factor in order to satisfy the pork belly constituencies.
Of course nothing like this will ever happen as governments do not like reasonable solutions and will always look to laws that only create an appearance of solving the problem so that future
It is a pleasure to peruse the site again after its digression into... commercialism?!. I had almost given up on it. Thank you for working to bring it back.
In the majority of cases if you are interacting with the boot process then you have physical access to the machine. So unless GRUB is managing disk encryption you have access regardless of the password in GRUB. This is security theater, not real security and breaking it is not accomplishing anything significant.
Your attempt to refute my statement disregards cost associated with the simplification - a core tenet of my claim. Compare and contrast said classification of academic papers with something like patent filings, if you really want to see unnecessary obfuscation.
Or just maybe - research tends to be focused on highly complex topics that require extremely specific definitions afforded only by obscure terminology. Often the ability express these concepts in a manner graspable by an average level vocabulary is difficult - bordering on impossible. Not to mention that the time required to come up with an adequately simple representation is often not given due to the pressure to publish the next idea.

The only way I can see this working is if the computational results are non-deterministic. Otherwise, it is just people telling a machine what to say and the people who do that are in fact culpable. On the otherhand if this passes then regulation should (rightfully IMHO) be placed on what we can program computerized results to be, in otherwords we will have rules on how to make rules.
This is a classic argument made in favor of capitalism. However, it also ignores the skeleton in the closet, and that is that external cost are not accounted for and those costs include things like policing your property, prosecuting violators, maintaining records of ownership, etc. If you as a creator are willing to bear all those costs then you are entitled to indefinite profit from your work, but if you offload the cost burden onto the populace then at some point the value added to the economy by your creation is outweighed by the cost of protecting it and it rightfully should fall into public domain.
Right?! Because it is not news if I choose to subscribe directly to things like the county school board news letter instead of watching/reading commercial laden media hype.
Trying to imply that the Internet is to blame for the downfall of investigative journalism is ridiculous, I have seen more expose's as a result of rapid information spread on the Internet than I ever saw from some local yokel reporters drek on how bob's bakery was vandalized last night.
If anything this means that the FCC should be pushing the protections afforded to journalists toward the more independent sources like bloggers and whistleblowers.
I think the idea is that tidal distortions would be almost exclusively limited to the equatorial regions, this appears to be radially isomorphic, indicating that it is not the result of tidal stress.
This is the crux of the issue. First assume that a list of instructions, under normal operating circumstances, is to be executed in order. This is necessary to the test, otherwise instruction 1 may not be performed first.
1. (implicit) execute this instruction: parse remaining instructions, but do not execute....read/parse...
As you never get to execute step 5 or 6, you never perform the behavior that satisfies the implicit (but erroneous) intent of this test. The default fall back intent of an instruction set remains in effect, thus the inherent sequential nature of the instruction list is valid and should be executed in order. Unfortunately instruction 5 is now no longer meaningful, as it is impossible retroactively un-execute an instruction. The reasonable thing to do in this case is to ignore any instruction that cannot be performed and either proceed to the next instruction or stop executing altogether, but in this case the next instruction actually results in the same behavior. So the logical and reasonable thing to do is the opposite of the intended result, which is paramount to saying that the creator of this test is an idiot.
Because acronyms are just a compression scheme to pack more information into the same space as a name. If you don't like acronyms, then ignore the compressed content and just use the letter sequence as the name (many common acronyms currently are treated in just this way: when was the last time you thought of laser or scuba as an acronym?).

Which is why I still don't use it. If they really wanted to bolster security then MFA should really be standard, IMHO.
I will just leave this here...

never mind, from the DSA, they back ported the changes
For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 1:6.7p1-5+deb8u1.
In my defense it does not say that in the advisory upon install...
Thu 14 Jan 2016 :: 16:59:07 EST (-0500)
# apt-get install openssh-client ...
Get:3 http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates/main openssh-client amd64 1:6.7p1-5+deb8u1 [691 kB]
this is not 7.1p2 needed to mitigate this bug.

This is the proper place for memory, on the system bus.
Putting memory behind a drive controller is just like making your gas pedal respond to a buggy whip (OK, car analogies aren't my strong point).
