In a word, control. It doesn't matter what flavour of politics you have, there are groups that want to control you, for your own good, of course. Some seek it to gain control as a dictator, but by far the most dangerous, are the ones that actually believe that their beliefs imposed upon society are for the betterment of society. Those are the ones who are stupid enough get their ambitions and capabilities mixed up.
The world will be destroyed with the best intentions at heart.

A lying cheating boy who has no selfworth. He makes you fall for him and then rips everything out from under you. Be careful when near him. May occasionally act immature and like a girl. WARNING: He will say he loves you but is just saying that to get into your pants. Avoid at all costs.

When it's said google knows all, it really means it.
Don't know what this guy did, but it seems as though this woman is using a restraining order as a tool for revenge rather than to prevent violence. If this is true, for shame!
I'm just waiting for a conclusive youtube history gets linked in to your G+ display. I'm sure that won't be any cause for embarrassment amongst professional circles.
Actually, you agree with my statement. A seasoned commander has learned to dissociate himself from the personalities of troops on the battle field. They are points that need to be optimised, not men with wives and children, hopes and dreams of their own. They have learned to disregard the reality of the permanence of their actions consequence on the individual, and seek to optimise the game as a whole. This is precisely what the sets of experiments prove. In a game scenario, non-sociopaths are able to make the rational choice to kill one person through their action, as opposed to not killing an individual, but through their inaction, allowing ten people to die.
Given the train track example of 5 people dying versus 1 person dying, and you have 4 other people in the control room. Would you sleep easier at night if you were the one to pull the lever killing the father of 4 children under 10 years old, or the person who sat by idly, stunned in silence with 4 other people, and watched 5 people, each with 2 children each, get run over the by the train? Most people would rationalise that their inaction is justified, and that they couldn't have done anything about it, however, in the case of taking action, wind up with a horrible post traumatic stress disorder because they have murdered an individual.
How about the legal system? At the least there would be an inquiry, and some level of finger pointing and arguing if you pulled the lever. How would you feel every time the same person said, "errr... but couldn't you just stop the train"?
This is exactly like Enders Game. If you dissociate yourself from the consequences of reality, and think things are just a game, or exercise without consequences, that you want to do the best at, you will achieve the same goals faster and better with less losses than if you are empathising about the consequences from a the affected individuals perspective.
However, in life, our goals and purposes are changed by empathy for others, which is the driver to have evolved a moral compass.
What, you'd rather have kits to create blackholes around? I think the fact that it's hard to create a black hole at will is a feature rather than a bug.
I'm glad he gets out more than the stereotypical slashdot developer. I would imagine that a series of slit scan camera shots of a basement and the action in there would be quite boring.
You can create your own currency at will! You don't need bit coins, you just need to print a stack of bills. Marketing groups do it all the time, frequent flyer miles have been doing it for years. At the end of the day, your currency/cryptocurrency/method of using clamshells for trade's value is still in the eye of the seller.

2. Pour said gravy onto train
3. Make phone call to cable company
4. Profit?

But that argument would indicate that EA and its subsidiaries behave just like drug dealers and pimps! Oh, right... Carry on!
Let's just hope it doesn't stay in the traditional windows behaviour of bluescreening right when you finish your download.

Maybe those starts just didn't like the neighbourhood they were in and decided to move house.

One. His name is Bill, and here is yours.
Those aren't asteroids... they're Niblonian space stations!
Yeah, the man on the moon's already annoyed at being called crater face all the time.
With the amount of asteroids you're talking about, you'll also combat global warming. Think asteroid fly screen.
