1. India's Rupee is considered less valuable than the USD because the USD is the world reserve currency amongst other currency manipulative tactics.
2. India neglects basic protections we take for granted in the US. No unemployment insurance, crappy schools, and a lack of a requirement to pay for "pensions". Hence it is more "expensive" to pay a US worker.
American companies want to pay workers Indian salaries with a massive currency disparity while not bothering to pay for the things that make America great such as a highly educated work force, paved streets, social welfare, food/drug safety, and other items.
Is it a safe bet to reason that Nintendo picked this hardware because of its mass availability in the supply chain?
I don't doubt that it is possible to make an NES with classic hardware today, but it looks like they went the easiest way to use whatever current teams they have already using off the shelf parts in a quick and dirty manner. Easy cash to be had on nostalgia.
The hormones that were injected are Norethisterone enanthate and Testosterone undecanoate.
It's been well known in bodybuilding circles that anabolic steroids make you infertile. I'm curious if they were checking the blood work of these guys.
For the men who were still sterile afterwards, i'm wondering if they referred them to an endocrinologist. A round of injection the folicle stimulating hormone may resolve their low sperm counts.
Make no mistake about it gentlemen, this male "birth control" is very much a cocktail of anabolic steroids. It sounds like a few of the guys very much had "negative" roid experiences.
What the hell do they need that many people for? Twitter at best could easily function with under 100 employees. 10 in sales, 1 engineer, 1 developer, and 88 managers./sarc
Realistically, the company could downsize by 80% and streamline their system. They don't need that many people for "microblogging".
Growth at any cost is the human way. When humanity stagnates we start getting antsy and when we start getting antsy people start to do things that are destructive.
We need to figure out how to navigate space. We need to figure out how to colonize other worlds. There are asteroids out there filled with all sorts of lovely minerals for the taking.
Saying, "There's no financial incentive to go up there" is a defeatist mindset. It's the logical next step in our cultural and technological advancement as a species. Self driving cars, smart phones, and even the internet are small peanuts compared to the veritable gold mine that space is.
These problems are really systemic of a socialist culture and governmental system. After living in Europe for almost a decade now, it's obvious that people who are born into their class stay there indefinitely. This is especially so in Spain and other Med countries where children end up living with their parents until their mid 30s. Onerous government meddling in business and regulations that destroy job creation (the real wealth distributors) are keeping people from moving into the next stages of life.
It's only a matter of time before the infamous "European" social nets collapse due to the lack of growth in population and economics. Between tenth of a percent GDP growth, terrible demographics from educated people, an astounding increase in welfare recipients from migrants (northern Africans are NOT refugees), and negative interest rates from the European Central Bank Europe is on a precipice. If the dollar increases strongly in value, Europe along with the rest of the world will face a damning dollar shortage and sovereign debt defaults making their welfare states collapse.
Europeans will face this reality soon enough. Personally, I expect civil war within Europe as folks get fed up with the lack of economic opportunities in the face of increasing taxes to support the over burdened welfare and pension systems.
I'll get modded negatively for this, but it's the truth and it's time the music gets heard.
They also created the 2nd amendment to put the fear of God into the political establishment so they wouldn't be so inclined to try and bilk an entire nation for all that it is worth. Is it irony that the very same establishment is trying to do away with that special little "check"? I think so.
Also read up on faithless elector laws. Any sort of attempt at using this to throw an election against Trump would lead to a civil war. The establishment knows it's on thin ice.
A nation is only as good as its ability to defend itself. Until a power like the US or China comes in and dictates its will, this is nothing more than show.
Personally, the double slit experiment is all the proof I need that something is controlling the world we live in. How else would those damn particles realize something is watching them?
One day, science and spirituality will meet and the answers that science seeks to answer may very well in fact startle and scare us. Quantum theory may very well help us break through the confines of this matter filled prison.
I've flown 3 of those airlines and used my bluetooth headphones for the flight. I didn't have a single stewardess ask me to turn it off. Break the rules and learn to love being a bad ass!
The US government could easily militarise Icann in an instance if it wants to. Don't think for a second this wouldn't happen if push came to shove. The US still has control over the entity so long as Icann rests inside US borders.
No one will use this. Linkedin already has this niche and people are loathe to try new platforms. It will end up just like Google+
That's leaving off the horrendous privacy and UI issues facebook has gone through year after year. I'll leave my professional and personal life separate, thank you Zuck.
Am I the only one here who thinks this "lawsuit" is pollitically motivated? How in god's name are they going to prove otherwise? Who has the burden of proof here?
The issue here isn't the materials cost of the epipen. You don't even need an epipen to deliver the medicine, just a syringe and an epinephrine vial. Any school nurse worth her salt will know how to use a needle. If school districts wanted to give a fat middle finger to the pharma industry on this they could go and purchase them.
The issue here is that Mylan (the makers of the pen) lobbied the FDA and government to require its purchase be done by school districts and then jacking the price up to gouge the taxpayer (ie you and me). Now school districts have to purchase the pen instead of going the route I outlined above.
The only way to hack the regulatory process is to donate a retarded sum of money to "charity" of a specific presidential candidate and various other lobbying groups. Though that isn't really hacking. Just, "business as usual" in the fairy tale land known around that stretch of highway known as the beltway.
Will we have flying cars too for all of this robotic automation? I seriously doubt it.
At best, we'll see maybe 1 or 2%. CSR jobs aren't going anywhere especially when people immediately hit "0" to speak to a real person. It'll take a lot more time to get self driving cars to become a real thing that don't crash or require a person to have constant attention to the road.
Others have said it, they're seriously going to check each device before take off? I almost want to buy one, take a picture of it with me on an Australian air flight, and tweet it to the world. That should become a thing.
When I found out that Whatsapp was owned by Facebook, I expected all of my conversations to be polled and mined for data. Are there folks who are surprised by this?

It's cheaper for a two big reasons:
1. India's Rupee is considered less valuable than the USD because the USD is the world reserve currency amongst other currency manipulative tactics.
2. India neglects basic protections we take for granted in the US. No unemployment insurance, crappy schools, and a lack of a requirement to pay for "pensions". Hence it is more "expensive" to pay a US worker.

The rest of America wants to know why it should care what the rest of the world thinks about its elections.
Get back to governing yourselves and stop bootlicking world super powers.

This is called investing in your country and people. America, its government, and its corporations should take note.

Do they want us to stop the modern movement of goods and revert back to the 17th century? Isn't this a good thing?
I look forward to the day i can shoot these things with a slingshot and a rocks. Wear a ski mask and avoid getting caught!
Where's the hydrogen coming from? Last I checked, making the hydrogen is an energy intensive activity.
Call me when this is in micro sd form. What handheld devices use SD cards? Palm OS and Windows Mobile? Photographers will see this as a god send.
