That reinforces my point that the news media/journalism is completely disconnected from reality.
Dissemination of facts is no longer about vetting and varifying information, it's about how many SJW's you can get to follow your posts and give you likes. There are no 'traditional safeguards' that work on the 'reddit' format. That's not how the mob fucking works.
"When WiFi can let people dig faster I'll might reconsider your perspective."
Considering communication can allow you to call in more people to certain areas of the disaster, and not having said communication is a bottleneck to that. Point made, was entirely obvious and should have been even to the most cynical 'rescuer'.
If you want dickish I can give dickish. Use your god damn brain and stop being an engineer for 15 minutes.
If you want to argue governmental 'refund' policy on data caps go fucking nuts I guess. What you're doing is letting so called 'perspective' get in the way of common sense.
1.) Maybe this isn't obvious to you, but the military ops are generally way better equipped than the Red-Cross is, especially if you're coming from a US/UK background. You guys are bringing your own radio equipment in by helo if necessary with a nearly unlimited budget.
2.) They don't really have the time at this moment to say 'oh we did this wrong' or 'we should have put more money aside'.
What, you need a peer reviewed paper with analysis or something to point out the obvious? I can't point to any actual research on the subject other than being able to communicate with large dispersed teams quickly is more efficient than not being able to communicate quickly.
If the responders are asking for something they quite obviously feel that having said service will assist them in more efficiently doing their job. Since speed and efficiency are the ONLY factors in rescuing as many people as possible in this situation
They don't need it for fucking selfies, if you actually think that then I have no idea where you're brain is. Either a complete useless cynic or just out here trolling people.
They're in their fucking vacation house, they know the fucking address.
And if you were actually someone who responds to emergencies, you should be plenty fucking aware that any small probability is a better chance than certain death. So you take the damn chance that ONE person has all those variables lined up and it works out for them.
This is in the Italian country side up in the mountains currently in ruins, super difficult to get to even before an earth quake cut off most of the routes.
Do you tin foil hat wearers actually think the 'criminals' are going to all of a sudden walk up there in droves when they can just as easily drive around Rome looking for unlocked wi-fi to do their 'terrible cyber crimes'?
No argument here. The entire 'UN' deal is just politics anyways. Bill Nye is more politician than scientist these days.
That's not necessarily a bad thing though, I mean I can see you've made up your mind on that one since 'it's all about grant money' so I won't argue that point any further.
Some people like to study, most of us that do actually enjoy things like eating and owning a house.
The entire crux of the article is 'we don't make games like we used to', and the counter argument in this particular post is 'I use Unity, so I do'.
My point is no, you really aren't. What you're doing is licensing the work done by said team and forgetting they exist. Work done specifically to game development, as in 'stuff these AAA big companies are hiring staff to do' as mentioned in the article.
Honestly I thought it was pretty clear from the context. Jumping to 'integrated circuits' and 'what about those guys that invented binary' is just arguing from a point of stupidity, or trolling, I don't know which.
I think you're forgetting Unity was made by a pretty substantial 'team' of people over the years.
I'm not saying it's bad for a great tool to exist, but you do stand on the work of many people to get your 'one man game' done. In much the same way big studios rely on in-house internal tools to create what they create.
If you actually think this is a trade war now you've lost all sense of reality. I mean that's literally the only way to frame the 'arm chair' presidents in this country.
It's akin to somebody who served stateside during Vietnam saying they've 'seen the horrors of war'. It's that level of asinine.

If Facebook is considered a 'mainstay of democratic society' you know the news media is complete fucking disconnected from reality.
They were pretty honest to me. Get a CSC degree and have your choice of jobs.
Maybe you just didn't actually read what the job prospects for your major are/were?
"If someone offends you, ignore them."
That's exactly what such a tool would allow you to do. It just allows a user to automate the process of avoiding post by racist/bigot dipshits.

"We need to move some of staff to part time to save money"
"Let's brand it as a new pilot program."
"fucking brilliant"
It's unlimited data not unlimited resolution.

My normal non smart phone battery will last for 4-5 days, and can connect to wi-fi, and send an email.
This phone would last longer on it's battery than I would underneath rubble.
"knowing your location"

Unless you're shit poor at your job anyways.

You're joking right? Nothing gets as much traction on /. than windows bugs.
You're implying a perfectly efficient heat pump. Those don't exist anywhere but in an undergraduate text book.
They even mention that fact IN said undergraduate text books.
That's because it actually existed and people did a SHIT TON of work to solve it prior to it being an issue.

You realize of course that it's possible for both things to be true right?
Industrial Revolution caused by the start of global warming (end of the minimum, little ice age), makes perfect sense.
Global warming period being exacerbated by widespread industrialization, also perfectly reasonable given the data and observations.
These two events aren't mutually exclusive.
People who call it 'flip-flopping' have a specific term reserved for them, they're called 'Politicians'.
If that's how you view it, that's fine, but don't pretend you're taking a scientific approach to the problem.
Probably because those things you're talking about aren't predictions, they're possibilities.
When people write articles and papers they'll bring out something like 'there's some models that predict this with a certain % liklihood'.
Idiots like you will take that as gospel, when it is not a hard and fast 'prediction', it's a possibility.
Autopilot on a Tesla might solve the problem on it's own.
Anybody who can't bother to understand what autopilot actually means will end up removing themselves from the gene pool.

Mostly stops at the 'this thing is directly related to that thing', which is what I was saying oh wise AC.
But bring on the ad hominems. I'll stand by what I said.
Do you actually take yourself seriously here?
That's apples to oranges. Unity is specifically tailored to game development.
I think you're forgetting Unity was made by a pretty substantial 'team' of people over the years.
