Funny how they beat the street but still feel the need to start chopping heads.
If you pay attention, you'll see that they have done this nearly every year. It's an exercise to get of the 10-15% lowest performers.
In large companies like Cisco, with large groups, it is easy for the lazy and underperforming to "hide". Most large teams I worked in, 20% of the folks were doing 80% of the work. Why? Because in large teams, HR will insist to hire underqualified and new-grad employees who are basically useless, and sit around all day attending meetings while feeling important.
Interestingly, it is those people who are either laid off, or promoted to "manage" something not important.
I don't care what the legal right is in your jurisdiction. What I'm saying is that the right to not contribute to your own conviction should be universal and immutable.
By providing a password, dead body or any other type of evidence, you are contributing to your own conviction.
Once you make one exception to the general rule, you'll get more. It's a very slippery slope. Now they can only put you in jail, but in 10 years they are allowed to deprive you off sleep. And 10 years later deprive you of food and water, followed by pulling your nails out.
Any person suspected of a crime should have a universal irrevocable absolute right to remain silent. You prove that the person commited a crime, and you prove the person's identity.
In general judge has the power to compel evidence to be turned over, and refusal to do so can lead to a finding of contempt, which could, if the accused did not comply, could lead to rather serious sanctions
And this, I would argue, definitely infringes on the right to avoid self-incrimination.
If this would apply to providing access to electronic media, why would it not apply to disclosing the location of the body?
The next thing they want is the ability to torture in extra-ordinary circumstances. Then it turns out that someone stealing a car is an extra-ordinary circumstance.
The right to not self-incriminate should be absolute.
Because this is not about the fans, nor is it about the music, nor about the artist. No, this is about the exclusivity deals and big plans for all of those to make lots and lots of money.
They demand blood, because somebody wanted to give the fans what they wanted, sans the liberal bloodletting, and bundling with bads.
No, they demand blood because someone decided to give the fruits of their labor away to random people who think they have the right to get it for free.
A true fan supports the artist.
I despice RIAA/Rightscorp etc, but in this case I totally see why they want to see blood. You're not talking about someone pirating a dvd and posting it on TPB.
However, they should go after Dropbox, not Reddit.
As another Cox customer I can tell you that their recent transition to carrier NAT is a clusterfuck.
Interesting. What's the address that they gave you? (or/24, I don't need your IP). I'm curious to see what happens and why. I don't have CGNAT (at least not that I know of), yet.
As a Cox customer, I can definitely tell you that they are pretty good. I've been an AT&T Uverse, Comcast and Charter customer before moving in a Cox area.
My experience has been good. I don't have cable TV, and I pay $64.99 for 150/10. During non-peak times I get that speed, and at peak times I still get a good 120mbps down. They don't bomb me with TV offers all the time, and I've had one outage (which lasted for less than an hour) so far.
The RIAA on the other hand... Let the second amendment people handle those fuckers.
No. The last thing we need is unions. The last thing I want is some group of people stealing my wages to promote their own agenda, sanctioned by the government.
Everyone who isn't insane or a fool understands that we need to stop Trump
Your insane and foolish to think that this is how democracy works. It isn't. If people want to elect Trump, they will. The more CNN/MSNBC/Washington Post/etc etc etc bash him, the more people WANT to elect Trump.
Even Hillary acknowledged that the people have a reason to distrust her. Hillary and Trump would be equally as bad for the country.
Hillary, when she's all that stands between us and (Trump)
Bovine Fecal Matter. This is the first election where an independent might actually have a proper chance.
Which means that you now have a semi-unpredictable obstruction from 0ft to 60000ft that cannot easily be seen by pilots of other aircraft. You can map it out on a chart, but then you'll have to say "obstruction from point a with a potential circumference of xx miles" since it will never point straight up but bend in a curve. It will also have to go through various classes of airspace, including class A.
I'm quite sure that the average folks on the flight deck of your 737/A320 do not expect any obstacles when cruising at 35000ft.
No. The fact that you are ready to defend these Ambulance-Chasers-On-Steroids is ridiculous. This goes beyond ambulance chasing. These attorneys should be ashamed of themselves.
They should go after the perpetrators of the violence. But wait, they have no money. So let's take $RANDOM_AMERICAN_BUSINESS, because not only do they have money, American juries are made up of average Americans. With an average IQ of the Siberian mean temperature.
but there's no technical barrier to those parts, other than scale
Ask the Chinese about their experiences in suppressing "subversive" content. Joe-Ping Random-Lee out on the street will probably be able to give you 5 different types of VPNs, proxies, or other ways to circumvent the Great Firewall.
Yet another example of the idiots in The U.K. trying to force their ridiculous standards on everyone. It's up to parents, not politicians. I'm glad they're taking their stupid shit out of the EU.
My father, an immigrant, had been working for the same company for almost 25 years. Made it from blue collar worker to upper management. At some point, war broke out in his home country. He went to his boss and asked for a leave of absence to get his mother out of the war zone. The next day, he was called into a meeting of top executives.
He got told: " You have been working for us for 25 years, it's time for us to do something in return". They arranged for flights for him and me, hotel rooms, and at the airport they had a large amount of US currency waiting for us. Needless to say, he got as much time as needed. We ended up saving over 20 family members from the Kosovo war in 1999.
The company was a large multinational company, not some small family owned shop. Even today, this impresses me. Not all corporations are bad.
There is always Exede, or any other satellite based internet service. Granted, latency sucks and it isn't great for real-time communications such as voip or skype, but in general it works great.
It's not about fiber. If you have Netflix, go find "Code Black". It's a documentary about a group of ER doctors, and of of the things that stand out is their move to a "HIPAA compliant" hospital. One of the doctors can be quoted saying something like "if I use the restroom, I want to login. Login Login Login everywhere". Sure, HIPAA keeps patient records safe. But what use is that to the patient if he's dead? I'd rather be alive and have my records slightly less safe than being dead but knowing for sure that nobody knows I had a heart attack.
Also, your fiber is not going to fix it. Yes, fiber will lower the latency on the physical transmission. However, you fail to take into account that you still need a datacenter with computing power (since "the cloud" is nothing more than a computer elsewhere). And that's where you'll see most of the latency coming from.
But seriously, watch "Code Black" if you're bored. It's an excellent documentary.
Let me encourage readers to ignore everything in the above post and instead read the FARs
Let me encourage readers to ignore everything in the above post and use common sense.
Private pilots can get their license after 40 hours of flight. They can then take passengers up in the air, and with a bit of extra training even fly complex and turbine aircraft.
They are only checked every two years by a flight instructor, not an examiner. In other words, as a passenger you might end up flying with someone who hasn't flown an aircraft for almost two years (although there is a requirement for PPLs to have 3 take offs and landings in the past 90 days before flying with passengers, it is difficult to check this).
Private pilots also have simplified medical requirements. You can end up flying with a 42 year old private pilot who hasn't flown more than 30 minutes (the time it takes to perform said take offs and landings) in almost two years and who hasn't been medically checked in almost five years.
I hold a PPL myself, and would never ever let my family fly with a random pilot I found on a shabby website. Not because of the FAA, but because I know the system.
In a democracy at least, the government is there to ensure prosperity for ALL of its citizens. Some can be more prosperous than others. However, if 1% of the country has a stable livelihood, while the rest are starving, then the government didn't do it's job. It doesn't matter how many trillions of dollars that 1% has, the government has failed.
You're confusing communism with democracy.
In a free-market democracy, the government does not exist to provide a stable livelihood to all of its citizens. The citizens are responsible for doing so themselves. If citizen A chooses to drop out of high school and ends up flipping burgers, his classmate who continued to get a law degree and makes $250.000 a year is NOT responsible to make up for it.
The government has NO business to put a gun to the attorney's head and take his money away.
Picture this: the FBI loses, but very, very publicly. It will be a huge win for privacy and the public. Apple will be our champion. People will switch to Apple products, thinking they will be safe from government intrusion, "terrorists" and those wishing to do us harm will use Apple products. All while the FBI knows how to break in, giving everybody a false sense of security. Apple wins, the FBI wins, privacy loses.
Dude, I don't know what you're smoking, but that's some good shit.

Put up a sign stating that cellphones observed during the concert will be confiscated
That does not make it legal to confiscate anything that I legally own.
The only thing that a venue can do is ask me to leave. If I refuse, they can call the cops for trespassing, but that's about it.
observers violating those terms deserve some kind of negative reinforcement
Which will be limited to being thrown out.
