If you created this huge of a disaster you would have lost the contract, and most likely have to pay back any payments made. You would also be on a virtual blacklist as being completely incompetent.
But here in the federal government.. it doesn't work that way. You get rewarded.
On Obama to do something he doesn't like? Get real.
Regardless of ones views on his piss-poor performance as a president, and his ongoing anti-American agenda, he is a lame duck president, so he really cant be pressured into anything.
No, its not a skill required, for most jobs. Math, you use in daily life so its a bad comparison. Besides who said you have to LIKE something to do it?
While its nice to know what coding is, as it helps make the magic box do things, it wont enrich most of the public to know how to do so.
Hate to break it, but 99% of the public really don't care how most things work, they just want it to work when its turned on. Knowing how an appliance ( yes, that is what a computer is to most ) works doesn't really make it work any better.
My gold ring costs more. My car costs more. ( WAY more ) A new house costs more. ( older homes, are less only due to the market collapse that has not recovered yet, over time its increasing )
Seems that in general durable goods increase over time, while IT goods decrease.
This is one of those long-term sources of energy, like the sun, that will last forever, in practical terms, as when that power drys up, we are moving off planet anyway as we are in bigger trouble.
Not sure if this is good or bad in the long run. Its good the order was lifted but it may pave the way for more invasive ways to restrict your access to the net and monitor where you go...

Not if this technology actually delivers and makes the workforce more efficient
Nothing at this level of draconian motoring will deliver. It will only breed rebellion and sabotage, and in the end, self-destruction.
That would be flushed on the first day, as i walk out the door.
On a new bill, perhaps. Not hard to fake, but yes i agree its an extra piece to replicate.
On an old bill? Not so much, and how many people refuse the old bills? Not many, as its still legal tender.
And ultimately, that is all you really need to do. Fool the guy at the store counter, which isn't all that hard.
Once it gets back to the bank and is detected, you are long gone.
What is that? It wasn't on my tv so at least in my case it was a waste of dollars.

And your point? Its called freedom. Now, you can get back on the bus.
For the the modern joe-job.
Unless its an actual officer with an issued camera, the picture means nothing.
Where nearly everyone spied on everyone else. You never knew who was watching and reporting, so you assumed everyone was.
That is the math i was speaking of.
Keep dreaming. When automation hits that point, the number of programmers needed will actually be reduced due to advances in technology.
Most people will be out of work at that point.
You clearly don't have a clue on is going on here. Time to turn in your geek card ( which i suspect is forged anyway ) and get off the net.
People like you only clutter things up for the rest of us.
All this does is confuse matters even further and create a total cluster-F.
There should be a limited number of TLDs, and be 'regulated' like they used to be ( such as no commercial entities on an .org ).

Soon to be less popular.
Now, try to log my actions...i dare you
It isn't just about the financial aspect, its also about the cruelty part of experimenting on living creatures that cant say they are suffering.
At least a human can say something: ' hey, i don't feel right '...

To have the money to buy the laws and take out your competition at the legislative level before they even have a chance.
FCC, where are you??????
The world has gone nuts, i want off at the next stop.

And tablets? Phones? ... not so much.
