This whole problem will go away when recording devices become so small that police will not know who is filming them and who is not. Eyeglasses? Could be a camera. Contact lenses? Camera? Glass eye? Camera. Third button down on the shirt? Camera.
Here they could have the key to warping space/time, and the first use is to putter along in orbit cheaply.
You know someone is a small scale thinker, when they miss the bus, and wish they had a Star Trek transporter device, so they could beam themselves to the next bus stop.
I don't remember the author, but I read a short story long ago about a man who invented time travel and only used it once a week to go back several decades and buy pork chops because they were really cheap.
You underestimate the rigid control HR departments now have over the hiring process. The days where you could call a friend with a job opening and hire them the next week are gone. The HR consultants have sold the modern corporation on a model where they are the gatekeepers and your professional scientific input backed by decades of experience is irrelevant put up against their liberal arts degree and HR after their name in the Outlook address book.
Funnily enough, Darwin followed the scientific process when he went to the Galapagos and attempted to DISPROVE his own theory. What he found there REINFORCED IT. THAT is how science of discovery is done!
Well, since evolution is wrong, and Darwin couldn't disprove it, that proves that he was a bad scientist, which proves that his theory of evolution is wrong. QED.
Reminds me that the Japanese Navy and the Japanese Army functioned as wholly separate forces who were jealous of each other's influence and successes. To the point that the Japanese Army had their own submarine fleet rather than ask the Navy for assistance.
Apple is trying to move away from being perceived as the hardware of choice of nose-ringed tattoo-sleeved hipsters. This ink incompatibility is not a bug but a feature.
Bernie Sanders the man that brought on the housing crisis with his misguided anti redlining legislation ? Pro Tip here, if you can't afford a loan you can't afford a loan.
Yes, the elderly Senator from a small state with no party to back him up literally took control of our entire economy and wrecked it single-handed while Wall Street executives and billionaires stood helplessly by wringing their hands.
The woman apparently has said that she will not be demanding any support or anything more from the father.
Except that her agreeing to this now means nothing if circumstances change. If she falls on hard times in the future, the state may then go after the father for child support no matter what the couple agreed to previously.
In college you could have a professor
that was terrible and EVERYONE told the dean he was terrible but even then they didn't do anything about it.
Because professors are there to do research and bring in grant money for the university. They are not hired nor are they evaluated on their teaching skills. Tenure is determined by funding.
Hi, all you citizens making an annual salary of $100 American eeking out a living on the coast of the Indian Ocean. Sign here to authorize delivery of your $50,000 pod you can use to escape that 1 in a 100 year event!
"Yahoo still struggles to define its place on the modern tech scene...."
Maybe, just maybe, Yahoo has no place, and investors would be better served if the company was liquidated and their money returned.

"If you want the job, make yourself able to get the job"
I wanted the job so hard I tried to get my DNA to change so that I was Indian but my damn lazy American genome would not cooperate.
Everyone's broken some law.

Can't we warn those poor people?
The kids that stare at a computer from age 5 onwards will suffer immeasurably and be very lonely later in life.
Borderline Asperger patients like Gates and Zuckerboig think that is a feature, not a bug.
you mean exterminate us like roaches before our monkey brain insanity can infect them

"That federal law protects individuals who are 40 years of age or older from employment discrimination based on age."
HR drones everywhere are rolling on the carpet laughing. Ever tried to get HR to pass your resume along if they spot any clue that you are 50+?
Do I have to pay the shipping cost, or can I come and pick it up?

if the USA officially endorsed the philosophy that "might makes right" your ideas would have some standing. But we do not.
Have you seen our national seal? An eagle with arrows and olive branches. We dictate the terms of peace because we have the weapons to do so.

a deeply entrenched belief that the fighting spirit of the Japanese soldier would allow him to overcome any hardship, any adversary.
Similar to the belief in the South ca. 1861 that the Confederate forces would win because they were gentlemen.

No - flight sharing.
parked the car and got on a plane.

The class that was too big to fail.
Man, I never even imagined seeing a time when we ran short of Mexicans.
