The color of the laser matters, too. Geeks pointing out constellations are likely using a green laser. A green laser will be more visible both because they are mostly just available as higher-quality devices than the average red laser (which can get as cheap as $2) and because your eyes have more cones to sense green light.
Wow, only $200k, and only because of EU privacy protections that half the country are so desperate to exit? seems worthwhile to do it again.
Exactly. With a fine that small, I have to wonder how much of a net profit the pharmacy made on selling information. The $200k is just going to get written off as a cost of doing business like most other paper tiger fines.
The problem is that you never know what things people know about you today will be seen as illegal/immoral tomorrow. For example, few people would expect something as innocent as providing your religion on census forms could lead to your death later, but for millions, it did.
I don't know that I share the same experience. There are plenty of UI tools that help make git easier to work with, such that I wouldn't have much hesitation in making it the first VCS for a team.
I certainly don't expect them to be doing rebasing, bisecting, or force pushes anytime soon, nor would I suggest they start by setting each other as remotes to take advantage of the distributed aspect. However stage, commit, merge, pull, and push operations on a central origin are all pretty simple, and not much different than they would be doing with any other VCS.
We decided to wait for VS2015 because 2010 was fine and we didn't find 2013 had enough to offer in terms of improvement for our dev team.
That actually surprises me a bit. For my team, VS2012 (and later, VS2013) were night-and-day performance improvements over VS2010.
I have been using VS2015 throughout the betas with mixed results, but the latest RC was OK, so I put RTM on my main dev machine. There have definitely been some hiccups - it takes longer to load our main product's solution, and it hasn't been as stable as VS2013 was. However, I have stuck with it because Roslyn and its integration with the IDE is a leap forward compared to the tooling in VS2013, especially when you start looking into analyzers. Such is the price of living on the edge, I suppose.
That's true for performance metrics in general: those in charge (management, administration, etc.) get a warm, fuzzy feeling that they get objective information about the performance of those under them, while the reality is usually that the metrics themselves are both easy to game and often detrimental to actual performance.
But both people and corporations are legal entities that can own property and be subject to contracts, liens, lawsuits, etc. It is silly to have two entire separate sets of laws, so it is reasonable to apply the same laws to both, unless the law specifically distinguishes between people and corporations (as some laws do, and some laws don't).
Except we already do have two separate sets of laws. For example, the duration of copyrights as owned an individual versus a corporation is different. This is especially true in the case of criminal law. Corporations cannot be imprisoned, and they are rarely (if ever) put to death (i.e., broken up). Most crimes which impose serious penalties for individuals are met with mere fines if anything when a corporation commits them. Instead, when a corporation does something bad, any potential punishment must usually be done via civil law (aka lawsuits).
Why do Yanks have to do every fucking single thing in their schools in a maximum privacy-invading way with overly convoluted use of technology?
Because the end goal is to make people acclimate to the idea that they do not and should not have privacy and that they should submit to authority. The free lunches are just a carrot to lead them around.
...only if you buy into the idea that it should be illegal to transfer $10k or greater without having to report it to the government. Why is that a given?
The original 1980s laws are pretty appalling, too.

America was pretty great in early 1929. Not so much by the end of the year, though.

It's also pretty obvious that the private prison industry is huge and lobbies extensively.
The stuff that trickles down is yellow, not green.

Do "ordinary" people have a say through their representatives or not?
Yes! For your convenience, the amount of say you have is quantified by small, numbered, green pieces of paper.
English is _the_ human language of coding. Get over the fact.
The phrase you are looking for is lingua franca (which amusingly is not itself English).
The only flight-worthy component of the F-35 is its price tag.
Don't forget the tax credit you can claim for purchasing it.
By their own word, revenue was $55.9 billion, and net income was $11.7 billion, so it's 0.05% of their net income.
Hear! Hear! Let's start with the oil subsidies, since Exxon Mobil is the second most profitable corporation in the Forbes 500.

Even more importantly: they get more customer data by forcing people to use cards.
Why flag emails when you can already designate evil intent at the packet level?
She's in good company. Don't believe that the parties are different.
For those not in the know, refer to the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 3.
It's also a giant government waste issue, to the tune of $40 billion a year.

Not just organs - we're even starting to grow limbs in a lab.
I hope they guan get visual studio working on other platforms
To that end, you could try out Visual Studio Code, which was introduced at the build conference this year.
