Who thinks it is a slight? Or who says that he thinks it is a slight? The former is stupid AND ignorant; the latter is just a smart political move if your goal is to head an oligarchy through suppression. Not that suppression is going to work in the long run...
Would it be evil for someone to sit in the parking lot of the grocery store and watch you enter and exit? They could record when you go, how much you buy, and then try and use that to market products directly for you. They are exercising their own personal freedom to watch people. How does that infringe on your freedom? How the heck is that evil??
Head First books are my favorites as well. Nothing like seeing an EJB with arms and legs getting shot by a person.
To keep someone 11 interested (gaming connections) and demonstrate the usefulness of math (geometry), you could ease them into 3D programming.
It is probably good for them to see the results of their labor, so web programming is a good start. Maybe PHP, since it is dynamically typed, has all the control logic, data types, and OO hacked into one language. Less errors = less frustrating to an 11 year old.
But that asset gets taxed. So you can store wealth. I completely agree with your premises, if there were a "trade" money and a "wealth" money. Maybe drop capital gains taxes and loss writeoffs on commodities...
You need to like red to form a hypothesis that you can test to find out why red is the greatest color ever.
Opinion is what generates scientific discovery. I hate the idea of dark matter and dark energy. I think they are just made up to fit into our current concoction of equations. In my opinion, our view of the Universe is simply wrong and the theories and equations need an overhaul. In much the same way, String Theory wants to change the underpinning of physics. These all start with opinions. Are opinions science? No. But they drive it.
I think they would be wiser and only beep you when you walk into a store, stay in one general place for a while, and then leave without going to the register. You are then an engaged customer, seriously considering a purchase.
Software or Hardware? This is about taking the multiple chips and software tying them together, and putting it, and logic, on one hardware device. Nothing new. Just consolidation and less energy consumption.
I completely agree. It will work and be successful, only if it can be used to its full capacity for a full day on one charge. Maybe they can use the body's heat to help power it or something.
And if we followed that path, we would recognize individual strengths and weaknesses and address them appropriately. But that would be too logical for our society.
This hits home for me, as I was FAR better at Math than Literature. My SAT scores showed it (nearly a 300 point disparity). Going into college, it was apparent that I was good at anything Math and bad at anything language or book related.
In this case, if Math were separate from "organization", then the student could advance at the pace (s)he should be advancing in Math. And that student could take organization classes to address those issues.
So, if I am following your argument, which I completely agree with, you either:
(1) slow research/innovation & provide care for everyone (2) stay on the forefront of research/innovation & provide care at varying levels that is accessible, at a cost, to everyone
But that capital investment in those high end sports cars in Italy keep the high end sports cars in Italy at the forefront of the industry. They innovate and drive the industry to great discoveries...discoveries that otherwise would have happen later down the road. Meanwhile, all Italians start buying the hand-me-downs of what used to be the best cars in the world. Yet those cars are still better than the other cars around the world.
Welcome to the basic model of capitalism. It works for CPUs and Video Cards, yet everyone just thinks that model can't work for cars, health insurance, or anything else...
The closest thing you will get to a free market in health care was the in the U.S...a long time ago. Don't confuse old technology with old policy when comparing the two by saying "we'll go back to using leaches". I believe the first major change to this was in 1973. The GP is completely correct in that the major problem in health care today is that people don't pay directly. There are proxies and no one knows the price.
If gas prices were hidden and the government (or insurance company) paid for them, people would drive all over the place without care. Demand for gas would go up and prices would go up. No one would challenge the price change because they don't even realize it and accept it as "normal".
It isn't a problem of digital cash. Physical cash can be stolen too. It is centralized digital cash. Doesn't bitcoin solve that issue? (not rhetorical; I don't know the details of bitcoin)

Google was actively against SOPA. Your assumption should be the other way around their stance on CISPA.

But there was an "offline mode". What if it were spent twice offline?

This would be better than just teaching evolution. Critical thinking is so lacking right now.
And a Catholic wouldn't debate evolution

Or else what? We won't hire you? Do you have a right to that job? What about the employer's freedom? An no, not all employers are evil.

What about note taking then? Wouldn't that violate copyright under the same premise?
If you root your phone, your phone could be rooted!
0 F is really, really cold for human habitation
100 F is really, really hot for human habitation

Also, what about lefties?
Or buy Paramount and change their distribution

Yes. When a parent goes out of their way to prevent their child from doing better than themselves, there is a cultural problem.
One model has incentive to innovate; the other stagnates.

(1) slow research/innovation & provide care for everyone
(2) stay on the forefront of research/innovation & provide care at varying levels that is accessible, at a cost, to everyone
I choose (2).

Whether it is used now or later, you are not liable. Your recourse is that you are NEVER liable for credit card transactions.
And VISA already dropped Global Payments. Let the market and common law handle this...
