Don't vaccinate your kids, and they are not allowed in a school, daycare, public park or anywhere else where they may come into contact with other children who cannot be vaccinated due to medical reasons and rely on herd immunity for their safety, or infants who are to young to be vaccinated..
Fixed it a little bit for you, but I agree with you so much. Choose not to vaccinate your kids and face the consequences: I don't want unvaccinated kids in my child's daycare, preschool or school. The government mandates that I take my child to school, and I have every right to expect that her safety is taken care of. That includes the threat of unvaccinated children.
A cult that believes their imaginary friend is better then somebody else's imaginary friend and have used lots of violence in the past to force people to acknowledge that.
As much as I think that anyone is entitled to their own beliefs, I strongly agree with the following quote:
Religion is like having a penis. It's fine to have one, it's fine to be proud of it. But when you start shoving it down my throat, we're going to have a problem.
I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or serious. But tape is no where near dead as backup media for business.
I'm serious, but you are right. In the near future, spinning disks will be used for the same applications and seen as the dinosaur of technology: backup and low-performance works.
The truth of the matter is that spinning disks are simply to slow for modern day technology. Compare your laptop when using a 7200rpm disk or an SSD. Compare your Oracle database query times when using a legacy storage vendor or an all flash array that can do 1 million IOPS. It is the performance aspect that matters in modern day computing. The bottleneck is storage, not your CPU, not your memory, storage.
It makes all the difference, especially in transaction-driven enterprises. But sure, for backups you can use spinning disks or tape. Just as our modern cars run on dinosaurs, for every legacy technology, there is still a usecase. I like to run my MSX emulator once in a while:)
Meanwhile, flash has revolutionized storage. We saw at least a 95% reduction in query times on our DB servers when we switched from RAID5 15K SAS drives to RAID1 flash SSDs.
This, exactly this. HDD will work just fine for your grandparents, while everyone who appreciates performance has moved on to flash.
The increased low latency read speeds combined with data deduplication, compression and instant off-site replication simply can't be matched by legacy spinning drives. It that is technology that is available today. Assuming that RRAM, as mentioned in TFA, becomes a generic technology that replaces flash, you'll have all the advantages of flash without the (very few) disadvantages such as wear.
Hello, random internet person, apologies if you feel offended. In no way was I trying to outsmart you, I was merely pointing out the obvious for the not-so-aware reader.
I doubt that the sensors you're talking about are for speed enforcement: That's easily done with radar and photos.
In many countries fixed-base speed traps are built using inductive loop detectors (the pneumatic ones aren't that good). One of the reasons is that radar-detectors won't work...
The living case of "I'll format him when we get married".
Between the time of engagement and the wedding, I behaved like an absolute baboon. I farted, burped, left my dirty socks (and worse) everywhere around the house. Every time I got a complaint, I smiled and asked her "Are you sure you want to marry me? I'm not going to change after we're married".
The "idiot"* still married me, and the few times when she does complain, I'll point her to our engagement period.
* idiot because she was the only person of womankind stupid enough to marry me:)
There seems to be a double standard where people are expected to make all sorts of completely unnecessary sacrifices to appease some control freak partner, but the partner doesn't take into account the other person's feelings, as if their own are any more important.
This is the type of thing you keep in mind before getting married...
Consider that most 'drones' are very tiny light weight items more akin to a good old fashion toy R/C model airplane than what people think of as 'DRONES' as in war planes. When a real drone gets hit by a full size airplane, such as the 767 mentioned in the article, the real drone is destroyed and the 767 will not even notice the gnat with the possible exception being if a big drone went through the engine which would possibly cause damage but be unlikely to disable the large aircraft.
I've seen (and reported to ATC) a drone flying at 3500ft over Palo Alto. I was flying a 172 at the time. Do you have any idea what happens if I would hit that thing at 140mph? It could severely damage flight controls (image the tail being hit), engine, prop or air intake. Not to mention the damage if it somehow got through the windscreen (they're not bulletproof, you know).
As far as I am concerned, drones are aircraft and should be regulated as such. Manned or unmanned. If someone is flying an aircraft (whether the pilot is on the ground or inside) s/he should know the rules of the sky.

Not if your an Australian you don't.
Yes, I totally trust you on that. My point was that the US system does not rely on citizenship alone.
US tax is based on citizenship.
No, completely wrong. I'm not a U.S. citizen but still have to pay taxes on my worldwide income. Wherever I choose to live.
The real problem is that women aren't treated like human beings in India.
And you think a federal lawsuit in the U.S. is going to fix that?
The alleged victim wants nothing but cold hard cash from a U.S. company, and so does the no-cure-no-pay attorney.

NSA guy sees "metadata management" and has a wet dream.
That's not metadata as you think of it. It's the metadata associated with storage.
There are a dozen different memory technologies that "in 10 years time" will revolutionize everything.
It doesn't have to be in 10 years time. But did you expect the rise of the All Flash Array 10 years ago?
Legacy spinning disks will be as dead in 10 years as tape is today.
You dimwitted nincompoop! A mee-too moron!

But using information thus obtained in court would be impossible
Two words:
Parallel Construction
Aren't they owned by News Corp now?
It looks like they're owned by Dice...
OpenSSH should be pretty secure
And that's the part that worries me.
Of course I have only been involved in the automotive industry for 45 years, so maybe you are correct
That's the core of your problem: you're to stuck in your legacy views of the automobile market to spot the trends and changes.
Surely there is a technological fix for this?
If I look outside the window of my little office in Santa Clara, the patch has already been applied. It has been raining all day!
And why did they give our local PD 145 flashlights worth $130K? What does a thousand-dollar flashlight even /look/ like?
I was going to post exactly the same thing, so you must be from Santa Clara County as well.
$896 for a flashlight... But what about the 6 camouflage sets for $26k? Do they fly?
The speed limit is c. It's the law.
Then I suggest we vote the current corrupt politicians out of office and get us some new ones that increase the speed limit!
Thanks. Why wouldn't radar work? Mountainous roads?
Radar will work, but radar-detectors won't. So a speeder can not rely on his companion-in-crime...

What I don't like is when the government becomes an engine for wealth redistribution, forced charity, or social engineering experiments.
My kingdom for modpoints.
Good, hand-egg is for pussies; it is a bunch of obese men tackling each other. You want athletic, go football.
Fixed that for you.
What North-Americans call "football" is nothing more than a bunch of men holding an egg-shaped object in their hands, hence the term hand-egg. The rest of the world calls the game where 2 opposing teams of 11 men touch a ball-shaped object with primarily their feet football.

New phase of your life. I think all of married mankind will agree with this:
Happy wife, happy life.
Seriously. Keep her happy.
