I am not interested the least in what John McAfee has to say about anything, nor reading what will ultimately be spun into a John McAfee publicity puff piece by the Dice Masters.
TPB has absolutely DICK to do with BitTorrent or its creators.
TPB is a site that aggregates links to torrent files that pirates created, much to the chagrin of the BitTorrent and users who use it for legitimate purposes.
But, again, to describe TPB as a "BitTorrent site" is patently false at best, and a thinly veiled attempt at associating TPB with the creators of BitTorrent at worst.
Sure, I have lots of objective data. I've owned my business for better than two decades and, back when I participated in the farcical traditional employee engagement process, probably interviewed over 2000 candidates over the years for various engineering and science positions.
The vast majority were very good at playing the "bending the truth on my resume" and "vomiting bullshit buzzwords at the interview" games, but not at demonstrating actual proficiency.
You know what they say about the whole science vs. engineering debate. In theory there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is.
I would have to agree, unfortunately. I gave up on the traditional hiring process years ago because it became nothing more than a contest to see who could bend the truth the farthest on their resume, and then bullshit their way through an interview the most convincingly.
I don't use resumes or cover letters or even my HR department in my hiring process. It's more of a "tap on the shoulder" thing.
I think it's funny how Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math are all considered the "same thing" by the media that likes to talk about them, yet they don't lump "Physchology, Sociology, Social Work, and Humanities" together because they are "fundamentally different things deserving of their own categories."
Perhaps our problem is that we treat thes important things as this basket of "stuff" that is "all the same, and unimportant."
Just curious, why did you attempt to obscure the word "SHIT" in your post?
Just say it. SHIT. It's a wonderful, useful word, just like FUCK, HELL, TITS, ASS, CUNT, DICK, and so many others that describe Slashdot and those who make it yet another newsvertisement site.
Especially the ones that don't even need punch cards to run. Mechanical computers can handle everything from algebra to complex calculus, and are completely impervious to EMP or hacking (except, perhaps being literally hacked, like with a hacksaw).

A lot of heat is released from water vapor when it condenses.

A mechanical failure is not the same as refusing to fire "for my own safety" because it doesn't think it's me.
Besides, a rare mechanical failure is what my BUG is for.
With all of that said, I've never had a FTF due to mechanical failure of my firearm - only due to defective ammunition.
Precisely. If there is any chance at all that my gun will simply refuse to fire when I pull the trigger, I don't want anything to do with it.
Only if they're insufficiently broad or lack obviousness to someone skilled in the state of the art.
Damn. I had no idea. Thanks for the links!
"(and autocorrect can die in a fire)"
Autocorrect can be easily disabilities by any on on either plates formed.
Been waiting for that in linux for a while.
Slashdot editors need to lay off the weed...
Glass is on and recording all the time - everything the wearer sees and does.
Phones still require a good bit of manual fumbling, and it would be very inconvenient to have one rigged to record your every move.
"In what way does Google Glass pose a greater threat to privacy than devices like these?"
Ubiquity, penetration, and connectivity.

No, but it has a lot more to do with not having a selfish, self-righteous, spoiled brat attitude such as your own.

But the shortage of *qualified, employable* STEM is very very real.

Right, and the government is also putting rainbows in our sprinklers.

I is sick of thems.

Take this one for example:

That's what this sounds like based on the language...
This is the same guy that thinks only Google should be allowed to drive you anywhere.
FIFY.
