It's more like the feds raid some organized crime boss' Italian restaurant and shut it down because gangsters hung out there. The business itself hasn't been declared illegal.
right now the Evangelicals are paying, in the form of votes. There's no hypocrisy here on Trump. He's just a businessman. As for the Evangelicals... well, they've got an agenda and an "End Justifies the Means" belief system & religion so I don't see any hypocrisy there either.
Call a spade a spade. These are not good people. Sad thing is they're leading a surprising amount of good people by the nose since they control those people's social circles.
lots and lots of it. Amazon is on the forefront of retail automation. Store fronts, warehouses, delivery. You name it. They're being allowed to bleed cash because $23 billion is peanuts compared to a retail future without retail employees...
when you have an industry to protect. We don't really. Even the Steel industry is almost entirely recycling at this point. We'd have to completely rebuild our manufacturing base. And even if we do Automation means we wouldn't see very many jobs.
Cell phones have taken over so much tech. Plus with modern logistics and analytics there's a lot less surplus. Companies know much sooner when a product's a dud. Sometimes before it hits market.
I've spoken with several of them (used to work in a call center) and they stopped using them to save money. I've had several people suggest this to me as a tactic when I got sick (I knew better and admonished them for it).
When I was poor ever doc told me to finish my meds. When I got some money and started seeing docs in the better neighborhoods that stopped.
either wait until we can pack the Supreme Court with left wing candidates (good luck with that) or call a Constitutional Convention. And my God, good luck with _that_. The same folks who bribe everyone bribed the State legislatures.
The only real hope is to show up to your primary and vote for Bernie Sanders style candidates who refuse corporate PAC money. Your votes count in your primary more because so few people show up for them. And yes, this means voting for the Ds. I don't know of a single Republican who's refused corporate PAC money. Well, there's this guy.
for crooks first. And while people hate the crooks in other states, they seem to like _their_ crook.
I'd like to see a movement to get people to refuse to vote for anyone who takes corporate PAC money. But then we just elected a Pres who in turn handed the FCC over to a guy that let one media company buy up each and every local news station.
Also, I couldn't even find the original video for the above link. I had to settle for an article on Vox.
and to Trump's credit he's put some tariffs on some of the cheap panels China was dumping here (to be fair those tariffs were proposed during the Obama admin).
don't forget that. I'm genuinely scared after what happened (and is still happening) in Flint, MI. The fact the America shrugged it's shoulders when it happened is even more terrifying. I've started filtering my water, and I'm hoping I'm just being paranoid. Here's hoping the Dems win in 2018 and kick Trump out in 2020. Screw partisanship, if your party can't even be bothered to give me clean water you can go to hell.
We Have a winner takes all political system instead of a parliament. This is by design, it makes it easy for the ruling class to maintain an illusion of democracy while having a practical oligarchy.
Anyway, we have what's called an "Electoral College" where if you get a majority of the votes in a state you win the entire state. Most states can be counted on to vote for a certain party's candidate. For example, California always votes for the Democrat. Arizona always votes for the Republican. Etc, etc.
There are a handful of "Swing" states that decide who gets the presidency. Ohio is one of them. Winning Ohio was instrumental in Trump winning the presidency. Trump spent a lot of time appealing to a handful of coal miners there (and in a few other states like Virginia) which pushed him over the edge. It was also great "optics" (e.g. it made him look good) for the other swing states; who have similar problems with job losses.
tl;dr: America has an incredibly fucked up political system.
cards are back in stock and the major source of demand for GPU mining, Ethereum & it's offshoots, are about to get ASICs that are about 5x faster than a GPU for less power (still 200 days to the break even point). Prices'll go back down to normal as more ASICs hit the market.
is my guess. I remember Blackberry touting their vibrant app store until somebody pointed out that one company was responsible for most of the apps and was generating them with some kind of script (there were tens of thousands of them).
but it's sort of a moot point since a real computer science curriculum is mostly about math and math can be done on paper just fine.
I suppose if we still had programming vocational schools, but between the H1-Bs and the offshoring they're really just scams at this point. You can count the number of jobs available for that kind of code monkey on one hand of a retired shop teacher.
half the reason Trump got elected was desperate coal miners. This is an utterly impotent gesture on Apple's part. He's got to do something to appease them or they're not going to come out to vote for him next election.
would be a good start. Following pro terrorist accounts exclusively. In otherwords, shill accounts designed to raise the visibility of the accounts that post.
who ran as a Democrat. He moved the Democratic party hard right so he could forge an alliance of economically right wing social librals and so he could get that sweet sweet Wallstreet money. The worst thing is that when he moved the Dems to the right the Rs had to follow suit in order to maintain their identity. That's how we got crazy shit like the Tea Partiers (well that and a ton of money from the Koch Bros.)

The "Uber for" moniker is used to describe gig economy stuff where you're workers are paid piecemeal instead of in wages & benefits.

about what India's ruling class does to maintain their status. Or what any country's ruling class does to maintain their status.
in only 10**192 years. I can wait.
they're not supporting Unicode just to spite us.
Attacking two politically sensitive countries? There are no air quotes big enough....
