On the other hand, there's no expectation that every year hardware features should vanish and that the phones should be able to do less with every release.
It's really weird. Seems likely to be one of two things: not enough customers care about those features, or there aren't enough competitors in the market and they're colluding, either explicitly or implicitly, to remove features (thus reducing costs) but not drop prices accordingly. I say that since the flagship phones are - if I'm not mistaken - more expensive in real dollars than they have been in the recent past, which is weird for electronics.
(plastic can look fabulous if you texture it right, or go premium and do leather, or put a texture on your metal, or ANYTHING that allows someone to actually hold your phone!
Ceramic! Someone made a video of trying to scratch the ceramic case of a phone and failing, using everything up to and including a power drill. I don't know how slippery it is though.
How about an FM receiver? Didn't someone put one of those in a phone recently?
The court martial. The death penalty. The power of impeachment.
Courts martial are for members of the military, so that isn't applicable. I have no idea how you think Congress is supposed to use "the death penalty" against an official in the executive branch. And as I said, impeachment or deleting the position entirely are the only tools available to Congress.
And if you're not going to do that, then... get rid of the power to impeach.
Congress cannot just fire him, as his position is one appointed by the President. They could either impeach him, or legislate his position out of existence, but I'm sure we can all imagine how likely those are.
I'm not anti-tech to the point of living in a cabin and abusing postal mail, but I do think for many, many purposes, a terminal-based application running off a dedicated host (or cluster of hosts) provides a company with a far more efficient, both in direct & indirect costs, system to accomplish a business goal than all these multi-purpose general-purpose GUI desktop OS's.
That sounds right on for businesses (or business units) that are more or less doing predictable things that don't change a whole lot, which I assume (despite all the buzzwords) is a lot of businesses. For someone doing a wide variety of tasks, or unpredictable tasks, or tasks that change fairly frequently, a general purpose computer may be beneficial and/or necessary. I know you added the qualifiers - I'm not disagreeing with you, just expanding.
If you want your supervisors and managers to be more productive, keep them away from the vast emails and text messaging.
I thought their job was to manage that stuff and keep it away from the workers. If they're not handling communication for the organization, what are they doing, and who is handling it? This is from someone who has never worked for a big company.
their previous "lack of ethics" should be a factor in considering intent.
I don't think that's how it works: "Evidence of a person’s character or character trait is not admissible to prove that on a particular occasion the person acted in accordance with the character or trait."
That's only 51 feet per second (a ridiculously high speed for a skateboard btw), so it would be a very small difference. Interesting math question though, I feel like there's a simple trick to it that isn't obvious. He'll be 1020 feet away when the bullet is fired, but by the time the bullet has traveled 1020 feet, he will have gone another x feet, and so on. It looks like a calculus problem but it seems like there would be an easier way to solve it. That is assuming the bullet travels at a constant speed. The slowing of the bullet would add even more complication.
I believe CDA section 230 should give immunity to Twitter for the speech of their users, despite any moderation they choose to undertake. I don't think there's an exception for inciting violence.
There's an issue of mental cost. Even if it's only 2 cents, the reader has to decide if it's worth it. Maybe they only have six cents left in a bundle and don't want to bother with refilling it. The money is not really the obstacle.
Every western nations puts great emphasis on the difference between lawful and unlawful orders, and makes it clear in no uncertain terms that a soldiers duty is to follow all lawful orders, as well as to reject all unlawful ones.
Which half of that receives more emphasis in training?

I don't see how that would improve the situation.
I don't know that much about it, but would that be all that difficult to migrate to VB.NET?
the first amendment which protects free speech not commerical speech.
The first definitely protects commercial speech, just not as strongly as some other kinds.
That was just an English translation of "Hrairoo". Another possible translation is "Little Thousand". I'm guessing "Little Many" would work too.

This has been your pointlessly pedantic and detailed serious response to a joke, I hope you have enjoyed.
That makes it a huge liability for Reddit to allow its distribution via their site
The CDA section 230 would shield them from liability for content their users post.

For myself, I escaped because I turned to religion.
I expected you to get flamed a lot harder for that. Glad you found a solution to your trials.
It's changed from NIMBY to BANANA: build almost nothing anywhere near anyone.

Well if it's a Greek bullet, that changes everything.
There you go, I knew there had to be a simple solution. Thanks.
There has to be someone named Jarone somewhere. Just watch the starting lineup section of an NFL game and that won't even be the third strangest name.

All correct. Sounds like you got the idea - Pai was not elected. :-) I don't agree with the claim that that's "the opposite of democracy" though.
There was one episode about how girls are just as awesome as boys.
I think The Princess Bride's cheesiness is tongue in cheek.
even though I thought Darth Vader was a robot
Well you weren't far off. "He's more machine than man now."
"...kills the first person she meets, and teams up with three strangers to kill again."
That was actually a very interesting answer, thank you.
