Storing large volumes of binary data in an archived fashion is a job for a filesystem, not a CVS. A CVS is not intended as a backup solution, nor should it be used as such.
That depends on the balance of power in the organization. If sales/marketing have the bigger share of the power, QA is downsized or eliminated and the only "show stoppers" are unchecked feature boxes.
It became a myth with the rise of political parties.
Were there not large organizations that spanned multiple branches of government at any given moment, separation of powers would work better, as each branch would be an independent entity protecting their own interests. Instead, you get one party controlling multiple branches, and the members within agree to work towards common goals, dissolving the separation of powers.
Of course, one could blame a lot of the country's ills on the existence of political parties.
One stereotype that I have developed more and more over the years is that an MBA without some kind of background in a field is useless. Ok, if you're a chemical engineering PhD and get an MBA that's one thing. If you're generic poli sci/econ humanities undergrad with an MBA, chances are, you're an idiot.
The latter person is the one I suspect that most people are thinking about when they specifically reference an MBA. I would refer to your former example instead by his or her PhD.
Just because someone made a large personal profit does not mean they were not a complete and utter failure in a grand scheme of things. I would hardly call our baking executives as success stories given the banking crash, though none of us can deny how rich they got off the bailouts. Were our economy and justice system not so rife with incompetence, many of our captains of industry would be unemployed and/or jailed.
Urination in public is already covered under existing law. If they so choose, authorities can charge you as a sex offender, which is about as bad as being labeled a terrorist.
It is lip service until they pass a bill with the cuts in place.
Most everyone rational knows that the cuts are needed to balance the budget without raising taxes, so that's what the politicians are claiming will be done. What is really going to happen is that the cuts will never see the light of day, then the Republicans will make some spurious claim about Democrat obstructionism to balancing the budget.
This gets them support from voters who want to make the deep cuts without sacrificing the votes of the seniors.
I imagine solution C was given for scenarios where public transit was poor or non-existent.
There are many places that will simply never realistically have a good public transit system. You really have to plan for something like a subway system in advance.
Bus transit systems can work, but only if the city population has not firmly entrenched themselves in the idea that they can and should be able to drive themselves everywhere. Otherwise, the only option is to continually build up the roads to accommodate additional traffic or decentralize the city to distribute the load.
That's the part that everybody has gotten wrong so far.. Patents and copyrights are designed from the beginning to restrict the transfer and sharing of knowledge.
False.
Patents and copyrights were designed to encourage the transfer and sharing of knowledge. In return, the inventor/writer is granted a limited monopoly to distribute the work in the case of copyright or license the use of the work in the case of patents. The underlying goal in the case of patents is to increase innovation both by providing greater access to the ideas of others (on which new inventions can build) and by providing an incentive to create via the monopoly grant.
There are plenty of examples where a technology developed to fill a need in one area was later applied elsewhere to provide various benefits. I am quite sure there are a number of NASA inventions that simply would never have happened if not for NASA (e.g. memory foam).
Samus in every Metroid game was female. She is arguably one of the first female protagonists, though the fact that she is hidden behind that suit 99% of the time makes many people assume she is a male instead.
licensed per core x RAM - they don't care if it's a server or if you need a seat for a development or QA lab workstation they license it based on what a given CPU "could" theoretically handle.
Not that I disagree with most of your Oracle == evil rant, but they do have an Express Edition you can use for dev/QA work for free.
...to their business model. Let's face it: if WebGL really took off and brought about it a myriad web-based games, the Microsoft stranglehold on PC gaming would be in jeopardy.
The obvious answer is to invest in shielded avionics. If any joe shmoe can unwittingly disrupt plane electronics by forgetting to turn off his cell phone before takeoff, then anyone intent on actually doing harm could pretty easily do so.

What confuses the hell out of me is that the official kernel version is still 6.x :(
You mean less regulation like the oil and banking industries?

Sure it is. Cross-training should be done on their own time just like regular training is. Isn't that what management always says?

I would rather concentrate my ire on the fact that the perpetrators of the largest financial fraud in history are not behind bars.

He could pass himself off as a security consultant rather easily, I would imagine.
It was a reasonably common gamer idiom for a shocked reaction not too long ago.

They have to compete with other politicians who whore themselves out for free on services such as Twitter :)

That may simply be due to a difference in intensity and duration. That says nothing about which part of the brain is going to handle each stimulus.
The idea that emotional pain can manifest itself physically is hardly new, and this experiment reinforces that idea.
