A business I worked for a few years ago was started by someone who did essentially what OP is suggesting. The programmer developed an accounting system for a healthcare related business (which is not an easy task, medical billing in the US is a quagmire). The application actually worked pretty well, and he knew other businesses could use it. So without telling his employer, he stole the source code and partnered with an unrelated business to sell it. The guy ended up quite well off when he retired.
Of course what he did was completely illegal, but this was before the internet so his original employer had no practical way to catch him, nor any incentive to do so since they still had the working application for themselves.
A glance at the curve reveals that it only considers the manufacturing cost of the PV cells, which (according to the MIT paper) is roughly 15% of the total cost of an installation. So...ECONOMICS.
Aside from the gaping holes in the data for many countries, the use of a spinning globe is a nuisance. Just display a map, it doesn't have to move around.
since solar makes less sense there, it has to be subsidized more.
Why not use hamsters running on wheels to generate electricity? That makes even less sense, so according to your logic it should be subsidized even more.
You need to follow a few layers of links to find the actual "subsidies" he claims. What you find are pretty much normal business expenses being treated as business expenses for tax purposes; depreciation, capital gains, R&D expenses, etc. Those can't honestly be called a subsidy.
I've rented a couple of different apartments over the years; always paid the rent on time and kept the place clean and in good repair. My ex-landlords have been happy to give me a good reference - which meant I never had trouble renting somewhere else when I needed to. I also rent cars a few times a years, the customer service rep knows me and gives me the nicest car available.
If you rent to any John Q. Public you will have problems, and if a renter abuses the property he or she will have problems renting again. The business has to benefit both parties.
The survey, which started in 2012, just released its 2015 report, and found that of 78% of the IT workers surveyed consider their job stressful. That's up just 1% from 2014, but in 2013 the figure was 57% and in 2012, 67%.
Their numbers are jumping all over the place. I also don't see how they can jump to any conclusions regarding Millennials in the workplace after only four years with such a small sample, and they don't break it out by age group.
Someone needed to fill a column with some words - so here are some words. Come back next week for more words in this column
All the research related to HIV taught us a lot, but this kind of thing makes it obvious that we don't know nearly as much about viruses as we thought.
NASA's primary mission has always been to support the collection of military intelligence. Even the pictures of Eisenhower looking at "scientific experiments" were just a cover for the film containing pictures of Russia, China, and North Korea that were returned by the capsule.
Kindall was bitter because he screwed up. IBM approached him first and wanted to buy CP/M, but Kindall didn't make the sale. Why that happened is lost in the mists of time, but Gates saw the value in the deal and made it happen.
Pay close attention to the "Privacy Statement" you are required to sign when you fill the prescription. There's a chance it could contain something about sharing your data; if I ever saw that I would let the pharmacy know that they lost a customer. I haven't had that problem with the neighbor hood pharmacy I use though.
While in theory, EMR's can do a lot of good by providing any doctor instant critical info
That's not just a theory, it's a fact. EMRs aren't perfect but they're getting better, and the security issue will be addressed.
That said, my wife and I both have gotten prescriptions for things that would be obvious if that information was leaked to a spammer, but it hasn't happened.

So what you're saying is that it's AI if we call it AI.

Seems more like applied statistics to me.
Trespassing means entering without the owner's permission; whether it was done intentionally or not doesn't matter.
So GP's logic is correct.
Property laws ate irrelevant. If a page is publicly available then it is public.
If I can break the window of your car and pop the trunk open, does that make your laptop "publicly available" for me to take?
The legal concept of a corporation has been around since at least the Roman Empire. Don't expect it to go away any time soon.
And the revolution you're predicting? There aren't any people starving.
Many Arctic communities have high murder and suicide rates. Also very high rates of depression and alcoholism.
And move back to the US
Liberians stepped up, but don't leave out other medical professionals from all over the world who also contributed.

Most of the money goes to the well paid (union) employees.
As opposed to what other flight that hit the ground before it reached the runway?

As I read it, 500 meters is the height; but they move slowly, only a few centimeters per second.
Chip is near reality. There is a working prototype
I'll believe the $9 price tag after they actually go to market.

Unless they charge him as an adult, which could happen. So he does (possibly) face five felonies.
