You have a wife learn to read the signals its not the noisy machine but the fact your spending too much time gaming. Or like a former friend of mine you will have the best gaming machine but No wife or kids and quite likely no real friends
wish I had mod points but came to say exactly that, it has nothing to do with climate change those words just make some people feel better its all about reducing the imported energy and reducing reliance on what is becoming expensive and unreliable energy supply. The silly part I believe if they said the truth the conservatives would go great idea but the green and left wing would still demand imposible taxes to achieve goals that will come anyway
Money is part of it, but it's important to look at it from the other side too. Just getting started in iOS development costs quite a bit of money. The minimum you must spend is $600 on a Mac Mini. You could spend a little less and get a used Mac Mini, but you'd still be out close to $400.
Find another business where startup capital is less than $1000 and running costs near zero this is not the problem your paper route or burger flipping job could have got you the startup money
The problem is as others have said its crowded with crap competitors who spoiled the neighbourhood and it doesn't suit in particular, high end software that costs $1000's requires support agreements and has only a small number of potential clients . in essence the app stores have become a race to the bottom where angry birds will rule because the person looking at the app store is now one of the masses not the person who spent $20k on a computing system for there business and then budget $10,000 for software they need
If you are offered a free product you will say either say thank you or no thank, However if its jammed down your throat you will gag and maybe puke. its the method of the offering here no choice, just here you go jam that into your hard drive, even if its not to your musical taste
Additionally the motive I'm expecting Bono to now come out and say "Songs of Innocence" the most downloaded Album in history but I would give more credence to a torrent stat at least someone deliberately wanted that
How any automated system will know if the phone is used by driver vs passenger is a challenge, I imagine.
The solution isn't to hard and just got easier with NFC place drivers phone in this slot if phones are detected and none in slot don't start car, once in slot all distracting functions disabled or postponed other phones can operate
Still won't stop the idiot driver with 2 phones, for this one a death penalty is appropriate when caught
Now go out and lift it once per minute for 3 hours and see how you feel.
True however family business is construction a little experience here
aside from OHS concerns where everything comes in maximum 20Kg packages (Australian OHS rules noticed some stuff from the US is 25Kg) 25 years ago most of these packages came in 40Kg particularly cement
moving 20-40Kg at a time with a little practice and the right food you can do this all day and you won't like like a steroid taking gym junkie which BTW are useless at this kind of work
What I can see this helping with if they do get it to lift 100Kg or this awkward/hazardous items where 20Kg even unbalanced can be very difficult to manage
A movie not released yet only available to those who have a stake in it is released seems to me someone doesn't believe its worth it or doesn't like their boss
BTW I believe a movie ticket DVD or blu-ray is over priced
Blame the parents and their classmates in school. My 6 year old Daughter does have her Barbies and doll house she also has meccano, blocks, lego, working solar system models, microscope, go kart etc these items she has already learned not to talk about at school because they are not girl toys. So girls are conditioned from an early age to stick to girly subjects. I encourage my girls to do more of the boy things and make it quite clear that they can do anything unfortunately I dont see many parents doing the same
Even the first lady and will tell the president where and when to shove it in and he will listen so whats different about the founder (sounds like DS9 a bit)
is not always the one with the knowledge about the product but the one with the people skills to manipulate the situation to their and your advantage these people usually have a very knowledgable person beside them who has poor people skills due to their single subject focus
At 43 (now 48) I took over the family business as well as keeping the IT business going family business being Construction of mainly Swimming pools I've since added seawall repair and construction while I like IT and that it is nice to sell something that people see and go WOW I love it !! at the end part of what I do can now extends to plumbing tiling carpentry concreting. and doesn't fit on a USB key.
But the point is the job is enjoyable because of the result and the people in it whether it be IT or construction or farming or whatever
If the people around you suck or if the job is a pain or pointless you will hate it. I get customers in both areas who want the near impossible and I have employees and contractors in both that are so stupid you are constantly looking for new ones (Shooting them while it may be more humane, is currently illegal) but then you have the others that make it worth it
Not Just Managers unionised worker with benefits and salaries and benefits that far exceed their skill level. IMO if your job can be mastered in less than a week, your job is not worth 100k plus a year.
It will also kill off the entire replacement parts industry. Cars, washing machines, fridges, etc, etc.
Not that I'm complaining, but it's not always an easy transition.
Not Likely however it may make it more efficient and able to produce parts for a longer time. It was explained once to me that when a manufacturer makes parts they estimate how many spares they will require for the future, manufacture them, then store them. The storage cost is incrementally added to each part hence why they are so expensive. 3D printing would go some way to eliminate the storage problem but it would not eliminate need for special materials used by the manufacturer or the precise specs which they could have in their own printing machine. Also when the last part is sold then your product is obsolete and no longer repairable with genuine parts. 3D printing could also make your product last longer in that parts would be available indefinitely.

Up to 10% of those could be gainfully employed keeping the rest in order. By which I mean beating the shit out of them, mostly.
Robots would do a better job here too and maybe perform some quick depopulation or surgery to stop the useless ones from breeding
I've seen this movie for humans it doesn't end well

I want a home that cooks and cleans. Cooks and cleans. I can take care of the rest.
you know they already invented that, the only payment is you gotta ram your dick into their pussy from time to time.
Basement dwelling slashdotters have that already including laundry and ironing and they shouldn't be doing that second bit to their mum

They were just applying th eold Question "What would Jesus do?"
The answer is obvious - he would have looked at Janet's tits.
He also would have flicked the paste off

1) very dangerous 2) very noisy 3) extremely expensive 4) unbelievably inefficient 5) plain stupid
6)enviromentalist think its a great idea
Local politicians just found their perfect solution

not just report to the police what about their own benefit if they can read it regarding child porn they can certainly check for stock tips
they are hacked/cracked and the outcome of the game is changed

It's now in a bag add a needle for delivery and this coders dream is a reality
How would you respond if someone tried to convince you to become a nurse because "there aren't enough men in nursing"?
Women go into nursing to find doctor husbands. get more female doctors and you will attract more male nurses problem solved
