Fair use is fine, but fair use doesn't allow you to make money off of other's work.
In the U.S. fair use is not clearly defined (the best the courts have come up with is a 4-factor test). Whether you "didn't profit" is one of the factors, but it is not a requirement. I.e. Siskel and Ebert can show clips as fair use and also profit on it.
Looking at it another way. If you take a microdrive at 1.42" x 1.65" x 0.197", and shrink it to 1" x 1.23" x 0.197" you could fit ~81-84 in the same space as a 3.5" drive. The top end microdrive had an 8GB capacity. The top 3.5" drive at the time had a 750GB vs 10TB now, a 33.3x increase. The size decrease is something like 0.25"/0.67" = 0.37x. Multiplied together, we can expect the stack to have somewhere between 6.5 TB and 8 TB.
This is not bounded by reality, but just some back of the napkin types stuff. Let's say you have a 3" platter w/ 1TB capacity. And you can get up to 7 in a 1-inch high 3.5" drive. That's 7TB. The spindle is about 1" in diameter, but from looking at the IBM microdrive, it may be possible to reduce that to 0.33" Next let's shrink the platter to 0.75". Because we're talking single speed, the amount of data is proportional to r (instead of r^2). So it's 0.42/2.5 = 0.168 TB. The drive is 5.75" deep, Assuming 1.75" for stuff, that leaves 4", assuming there wasn't extra space in the first part, we can fit in 28 platters for a 4.7 TB capacity. Because the platters are smaller, the access times should be faster. It may even be possible to stick another spindle into the system (more than gaining back lost capacity), and maybe more platters in a stack for higher capacity. Practical issues: power, heat, complexity. MTBF is probably lower. Non-failure error rates may be higher. Heat and power may be higher. The 0.75" platters may be impractical because of physical reasons. There may be some fundamental problem with having a 4-inch high 0.33" diameter spindle.
I was in school, but was too young for them to show us in class. It's likely that students elsewhere in the school were watching. However, there was an episode of Punky Brewster that covered it.
For the U.S.A. Local governments employ about 12% of the population, States employ about 4% and the federal government employs about 2%. I count that as 18% of jobs are created by the government.
Google puts it at about 36 THB to 1 USD, a draught beer costs about 100-150 THB, so 3-5 USD. Rough estimate. That puts the economies for alcohol roughly on par with Thailand maybe a little cheaper.
Exactly. We made a decision early on that keeping secrets was bad for broad innovation, so we came up with patents. You get protection, but no more secret. If you want to keep your secret, you give up on extra protection. So a leaked secret shouldn't have extra protection. As much as the patent system sucks, it still gets a public record of inventions that we might not otherwise be able to recreate.
Jesus's apostles, almost to a man, carried swords. When the priests and temple guards came for Jesus, one of the disciples sliced off an enemy's ear. In that section, Jesus isn't down with the violence, but he doesn't really condemn it either.
This must be one of those wetback invaders from central america we heard so much about last year. I wonder what jew is using this aztec retard to do this?
In order to reduce "climate change" perhaps we ought to get rid of these wetbacks and liberal idiots that fly all over the world blabbing about this shit. The whole Western world needs to establish camps with doors that only open inwards to put these leftist degenerates in. As a true environmentalist I don't see any downsides to the extermination of all niggers, jews, wetbacks, muslims, etc.
Remember, White is Right and black is whack.
Poe's law. I can't tell if this is parody (in which case it's kinda funny) or a real opinion (in which case it's horrifying).
Is that where you keep replacing a random half of the data with zeroes until you get the desired concentration? You need to remember to spike the data with a jolt of energy to make sure that the zeroes remember what the data was. Then you can use the data safely.
Well the linked raw data doesn't support your claim. The first big peak is 594 (it goes from 584-604) at 0.09. There's a warm period from 872-881. The next peak is 970 (from 962-991) at 0.16. Starting at 1981 (by the data set you recommend), the temperature starts going straight up, exceeding the last peak in 1993 and continuing to exceed it every year thereafter.
The problem really isn't the subject line, it's the amount of posts that seem to lack a first sentence. For example, the entirety of your post reads as:
and why does your proclamation make it true?
Does your decision mean you're forced to write against your will and put the message in the subject line?
Or is none of that the case and you're just wasting your time ranting, indicating that you really don't mind the waste of time you put into it, therefore the problem really doesn't make any difference to your day that isn't entirely self inflicted?
But I don't think that was your intention. As simple way to avoid this is to put the intended first line of the post in the actual post. Whether that's also the subject line is irrelevant.
Why the hell would I want a difficult job with real responsibilities?
"Hand me that broom - You spend all night figuring out where this ancient code leaks memory!"
Because you like your job? Because being a janitor can suck if you don't have the mentality for it (it's repetitive and tedious)? It sounds like it would be no great loss if you quit your job.
As I understand it, the line was that it was sinful to lend money for interest to another Jew. However, you could lend money for interest to a Gentile. Similarly, there were deals where Gentiles would hold grain in trust for Jews during passover. In order to satisfy the letter of the law, the grain was sold and then bought back. It's all about loopholes.
Careful, you're conflating tech research with basic science research.
The title of TFA is "The Myth of Basic Science". The premise of the article is that basic science research funding is unnecessary because once the technology exists, industry will fund the search for the principles. The article judges science investment purely on overall economic growth. It also includes this paragraph:
To most people, the argument for public funding of science rests on a list of the discoveries made with public funds, from the Internet (defense science in the U.S.) to the Higgs boson (particle physics at CERN in Switzerland). But that is highly misleading. Given that government has funded science munificently from its huge tax take, it would be odd if it had not found out something. This tells us nothing about what would have been discovered by alternative funding arrangements.

You can remain in insert mode forever - it is still more powerful than nano. So it is modal only if you want.
So are you saying I can copy/paste/cut/save/quit in insert mode? Because those are necessary in order to stay in insert mode forever.

Yeah, I thought Nahuatl was a dead language. I wonder if it's a traditional family name, or if someone just used an Aztec Random Name Generator.
The main problem vim has is that it's modal.
I think you meant homeopathic encryption.

42k - single car insurance for 2 drivers = 40k
42k - 40k = 2k/yesr for car insurance, or 1k/ 6 months. A bit on the high side but not unreasonable.

Why not just say, "climactic"?
Or are you a little non-anti-unsmart?
Emphasis, although the same emphasis could be achieved with the phrase "truly climactic".
