So you could demand clarification in the article and request an image of the person described be included. What you are really asking for is the exact opposite of the right to be forgotten ie the right for others to ensure the individual is accurately identified and not confused with others.
From the article the grandparent obviously did not read "Glantz showed a simple one-line Linux command and then jokingly walked away from the podium stating "That's it, thanks for coming," as the audience erupted into boisterous applause.". So in fact top notch people skills.
Also if people are actually serious about a solution to global warming, sea level rise and the collapse of property values for underwater front properties, we are going to need loads of energy. So what to do with all that energy, desalinate sea water and pump the fresh water inland to irrigate the worlds deserts. With cheap energy, you get cheap water and with that you turn dust bowls into carbon vacuums, plus of course benefits of albedo affects and water retention away from the sea. Green ex-deserts can of course produce an income to subsidise the cost of the water but the key is lots of cheap energy, so nuclear is required to fix the current problem.
At least it is now recognised that the key to better management of energy requires better energy storage. Renewable require better batteries to really make a difference. So likely more targeted funding is required in association with governments and an international treaty. Patent free research into battery technology, so researchers can grab information from every source free of charge and attempt to apply it to the best possible solution. Once the solution is obtained, they can commence production whilst patent issues are resolved via a specific government/industry body established for this key purpose.
Augmented reality glasses with a simple connection to a smart phone, smart phone does all the processing and supplies power, are very much more likely to be on the scene before they sort out insurance on automated vehicles. Most likely around the time it is legislated that only licensed opticians can fit and supply augmented reality glasses. It should not be up to tech companies to finalise the design of that particular bit of kit but up to Ophthalmologists and Optometrists.
The price of taxi licences comes about from not what you implied, "Drivers spent their entire life's saving enough to buy their own license", a wildly false claim but the from the reality of companies buying up all the licences, limiting availability and lobbying to prevent more licences being issued, so they can pay minimum wage to new immigrants to drive those taxis whilst charging a fortune to customers. Higher insurance comes about because the poor wage slave gives not one crap about the taxi.
So want cheaper more accessible licences, simple law change, ONE PER CUSTOMER (the customer being an operator who must operate that licence and vehicle at least some of the time), get em while their hot. Set a minimum price on that licence and auction them off, when the bids drop below the minimum price no more licences are issued, say $5,000 (used in an industry fund to pay for victims of bad operators). When you no longer want you licence you return it for a refund at the minimum price and it goes up for auction again (you have an initial allocation and more are added every year in set blocks as long as the minimum price is achieved).
Here are some statistics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., clearly the current methods are pretty sucky because they are not doing enough to limit deaths, let alone ten times that in major injuries and hundreds of times that in lesser injuries. You know what, no matter how many people, scream 'IF ONLY' and, no matter how many times they say it, it will have absolutely zero impact on the consequence that results in the 'IF ONLY'. Solutions have to be actual solutions not just empty complaints. Likely smarter solutions, slower more boring ego less cars (the vehicles first priority should be safe driving and not maximum horse power nor highest speed possible or loudest exhaust, the more boring they are the less they will be used), lower speed limits, vehicle location awareness with warnings for exceeding posted limits.
How about over other people's property without their permission. How about around public roads, keep in mind to penalise people for poor behaviour, you need to go through all the legal gymnastics of defining exactly what is illegal versus the simple expedient of it all is illegal (this up to clarification for manslaughter and homicide should a drone crashing into a vehicle cause the driver to lose control and crash).
Next up public parks. Now consider the sound principle of law for a public recreational spaces, those who have the least impact have the greatest priority. Easy example, take a lake, a popular swimming lake. Now up turns a douche ski boat operator on the once swimming only lake, no law bans his boat screaming around the lake driving all the swimmers from the water and deafening all nearby residents. Ski boat douche expects to clean up renting rides as the only operator on the lake, public park lake, why should the one ski boat operator be denied their chance for profit ahead of say a thousands swimmers, swimming for free. America of course, yeah profit, screw the swimmers and residents. Rest of the world, well, no, those who have the least impact when using the 'SHARED' resource get the priority because others can still readily use it versus the ski boat operator who presence actively denies access to others.
So for drones in public parks, well, there use will interfere with the people's uses of the park. In terms of noise, annoyance and risk of injury. So drone parks, basically use only in parks where it is specifically allowed versus non-drone parks as in all parks where the use of drones have not been specifically allowed and sign posted. Public roads absolutely not. Over other peoples property without their permission, again, logically strictly forbidden. Use over your own property, no problem at all. These are not high altitude devices like planes they are low altitude devices, hence huge restrictions.
Coral cores prove, coral reefs are destroyed by changes in sea level. The last big change being a few hundred metres up. So they likley will suffer this time round to. Not really the biggest problem. All that stuff on land going through a rising surf zone will wash huge quantities of debris and pollutants into the sea, now that is the real problem.
Want change, easy, target people's greed. Start running around tagging builds with "UNDERWATER FRONT - PROPERTY VALUE ZERO" stickers and signs, all for sales signs in at risk locations. Bring the real message home, to their rapidly devaluing home and they will start clamouring for real solutions to the problem and not empty treatment of the symptoms of the problem. When they start feeling the pain of falling property values they will start screaming for change to current policies.
Let's be honest that selfie stick rule has absolutely nothing to do with what happened on the ride, that is the excuse. The real problem with selfie sticks is a little more subtle. New digital cameras, unlike old film cameras, can take shot, after shot, after shot with bad ones deleted not costing quite a bit of money each and every time the button is pushed. So old film camera, near enough, good enough. New camera, hmm, didn't like that one, lets try again and again and again, how about trying this or this or etc.. Now if you ask someone else to take the photo, gain limits on how many tries and near enough is good enough.
Basically people taking shot after shot are causing traffic flow problems are around the park. People are blocked from seeing popular places or cough taking their own photograph there. Flows to concessions stands are slowed because people are in the way. It is not one shot with a selfie stick it is hundreds be each selfie stick aficionado.
Realistically the park wants selfie sticks, free advertising as the photos travel around (millions of dollars worth), problem is, they are causing real traffic flow problems as people are not stopping for a say around a minute for a single shot, they are being awkward repeating that shot again and again and again until they get it right and they are not doing just at a couple of locations but all over the place. Also I am sure the park could or already has photo taking concessions. You know pay a buck and get a quick photo emailed to your phone (sneaky huh, money for the concession and email and contact details and photographs on record, taking that into account the can really, really squeeze down the price of the shot).
You can do some smart stuff with the photo taking. Fixed point photo spots, linked to a pre-registered phone. Walk around the park offer of a 10 cent auto shot from a fixed well sited camera, based upon phone proximity (again other revenue opportunities). Toss in a 10 second video for a buck.
You host the ad, you promote the product and basically earning a percentage of revenue from that sale, then you should be liable for the message. You get paid to promote the message, you are liable for the message. A lot more civil suits need to start targeting those who promote false messages and think they are free to tell any lie imaginable, in fact an infinite numbers of lies because 'er' 'um' they are greedy and do not want to take any responsibility at all for their actions.
Flip side. What if someone who had the history of crime obtained de-listing from search results. Another person used search to make sure that person was safe, you know idle quick search. They appeared safe, so they established a relationship. The person with the hidden history then committed the same crime again, who does the victim sue, if they are still living from information that would have saved them from becoming a victim. Who has the greater right of protection, the criminal (with regard to published unchallenged news stories) or potential victims.
Clearly search de-listing should never occur without consultative regard to the publisher of the story and it's accuracy. Technically speaking they are also unfairly devaluing that page, the cost of the effort to research and create has been stolen because otherwise that page with it's adds would have shown up.
Basically this is not about hiding slander pages, that is a fallacy, this is about hiding perfectly accurately pages because the person in question fully intends to engage in activity that other people would reject based upon that persons past behaviour. That is those other persons right. If it is a false slander page, delist it after consultation. You could do a fiscal balancing thing, get both parties the publisher and the person who wants to hide what was published, to put down some money to pay for an adjudication, say $1,000 dollars. The value of the article worth and truth is properly arbitrated and the winner gets their money back and the loser loses all round.
So publisher can let it slide, costs nothing. The publisher demands a challenge and the person wanting to hide their history can change their mind and nothing happens. Else the challenge progresses and the losers pays (most often the person seeking to hide their past behaviour because they know the story is true and accurate and people upon fair basis are not trusting them).
Want faster weight loss add an electric shock to the game ie munching game, eat the healthy food and avoid the bad food, accidentally eat the bad food and not only lose points but get an electric shock. Where you attack those electrodes, your choice but repeated painful negative reinforcement will guarantee pretty fast weight loss and a healthier diet. Of course it might cause public problems if people start screaming when they walk past a cake shop.
How about just giving away you skills and ideas now for free. The measure of your real worth is not you wealth and egoistic philanthropy (which is often more destructive than constructive). The measure of your real worth is who you think you see in the mirror. Who gives a tiddly crap about how main stream media with it's wealth worship ideology treats you now, a billion years, hell just a hundred thousands years, forward or back it is all totally meaningless, only you own perception of what you have freely contributed will define your true worth, a positive or negative worth, contributed more than you consumed and nothing is more consumptive of society than accumulating wealth. You do not have to make money to be of worth to the human society you are a part of and factually the greatest contributions are done for free everyday, those contributions that bind humanity together. Being able to buy more junk and more fully obeying the demands of marketing, than others around does not make you special, unless you think being a victim of marketing somehow makes you 'special' (I remember that as being the euphemism for disabled children, somehow seems more appropriate when talking about victims of mass consumerism, hmm, the 'special' people).
Philanthropy the art of making the myopically greedy look better, at least for a short time. Charity, helping to serve a better a society for the long term with no reward or recognition, just the ones you provide yourself. Which is the greatest accomplishment, which is shared with the many rather than being exclusive to the few and which in total contributes far, far more to the whole of human society.
Suck it up. Very tight drone regulations are coming, get over it and play with a different toy instead. Likely, use restricted to private property with the permission of the owner. Excluded from all non approved public spaces. Temporary permits for specific public spaces at specific times. The new regulations will require quite a bit of effort in the US because it has to make its way through state and local governments but the regulations are inevitable because stupid is as stupid does and anyone no matter how stupid can buy a drone and crash it into something or someone. Bringing them down is all too easy with specific radio frequency jamming devices and catching the individual is easy, just wait for them to try to recover the drone with remote in hand.
If they are smart enough to be Manager, a group leader of UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, than you should be smart enough to check the facts prior to acting perhaps everyone should drop him a line g.rees@ucl.ac.uk and keep the viral social media joke running. Experience is often a better teacher than theory.
If they are older and subject to attacks, the result, "Fuck off, I am too old to bother with this any more see you later". Of course the narcissist who kicked it off to snatch their bit of fame regardless of consequences, they tend to pick their targets to avoid the risk of repercussions. Admittedly the individual involved is likely to be very sensitive breaking three main stream media laws of acceptability, a female academic, an overweight female (overweight men not being subject to the same level of judgement) and of course the more obvious (being far more obvious now thanks to the public display of US law enforcement activities against them), this sensitivity resulting in exaggeration of instances of perceived prejudicial slight even to the point of believing the exaggeration as real. Still a nasty hatchet job for a slice of fame and likely to cause a significant problem with her sheep er followers and likely as a result of screwing someone else career on purpose has screwed her own because clearly the attack was prejudiced by the victim being too old, too white, not very funny and very likely to back down regardless (an easy victim).
You kind of ignored the planning part, factually the most important part. People pay extra for homes in better, quieter more stable neighbours. Let's say MI the grandparent is a dick douche bag and wants to buy up a good neighbourhood cheap. No planning laws, so MI the dick douche bag buys one house a full price and starts renting it out for biker parties, every single night. Neighbours can do nothing because no planning laws and a driven out, new buyers don't want to buy in at full price because of stories about 7 day a week all night biker parties (and drugs and sexually aggressive behaviour and random acts of violence). So this enable MI the anti-planning dick douche bag to buy up all the properties cheap and voila shut down the biker parties and rent the properties at a high return.
People go on holiday to party and because they are on holiday they party every single night they are physically able to. People pay extra to live in quite well behaved neighbourhoods. Inevitably MI dick douche bags turn up trying to exploit this for their own personal greed and those societies grab those arseholes fine the crap out of them and shut them down, whilst the MIs of the world bitterly complain about statism and their being prevented from exploiting every imaginable situation to their advantage and of course screw everyone else.
Funny I have noticed slows downs with windows 7 with upgrades. The culprit being the habit of upgrades turning on unused services which inevitably slow the system down, this especially if you tend to tweak services (disabled, manual, auto, using guides like http://www.blackviper.com/ ), to better manage performance. M$ often, tend to reset services to default settings, less so now than before. Requiring a review of service settings to get performance back.
So likely they simply need to review the services running on those systems and turn off the unnecessary ones. Also the delayed boot for many services can cause, 'perceived' performance issues ie the system appears to be up and running but some services you need to run might still be waiting to boot but you run your application and it runs horribly as back ground services are still booting up, this performance impression is then left behind in the users mind and they become more sensitive to other delays (M$ also did tend to shift more services to delayed start in upgrades).
That problem is caused by M$ seeking to B$ their way through boot up speed tests by simply not completing the process and pretending for tests results it has been done. This forces new tests, no longer to desktop but say from switch on to a website completed loaded in say Firefox. So they might have good to the desktop quicker but that affect was destroyed by slower launching of their applications.
Middling performance, high performance, low performance, that is all silly twaddle. Appropriate performance for the appliance application is the correct. 50% higher performance than you need is simply wasted and idle. Gaming performance is tricky, the game itself needs to target the majority of the market segment for that style game, it needs to run well and look good at middling performance and reality is, games often run far more stably at those levels rather than at higher graphics which tend to crash more because they are tested less, non-majority market segment.
AMD likley simply focusing on NVidia at this time and wants to make it's GPU look as good as possible and is using Intel to do that, rather than the obvious answer of using two lower power, lower temperature CPUs and doubling the number of cores. Two CPUs don't not work as efficiently as one bigger CPUs in performance but you can still gain a big jump with cheaper parts but it does let you balance things out better with one CPU running at higher speeds whilst the other is running in efficiency mode or if demand isn't there pretty much switched off.
Now of course your comment touches on the future of electric vehicles, keeping in mind the electronic companies hiding in the background behind Tesla Motors testing the waters based upon Tesla Motors Experience.
Forget Chevy, Ford, GMH, the new motor builders or road appliance manufacturers will be the electronics companies. Some mergers, some acquisitions and of course Korea's unique vertical integration of manufacturers mean they are already there.
So say Sony and Panasonic motors, with a largely electronic vehicle, running FOSS but with content management as an extension to the Big Screen Computer, the Tablet remote, the mobile phone and of course the ultimate mobile (also all the other home appliances), the car or more a utility vehicle with greater emphasis on function, the all electric compact SUV, in the city or out in the country on a picnic and still providing access to shared content and helping to create new content.
That better battery is drawing a huge amount of focus, lighter with greater capacity and low manufacturing cost, the current technological holy grail in so many areas, cars, mobile devices, home energy generation and storage. With that level of focus the better battery is likely not that far off and it puts current automotive manufacturers under serious threat as well as of course the fossil fuelers.
You have just barely touched on what is really happening, this best described by economics versus psychology. Psychopathic capitalism can only exist where psychopaths dominate economic control, without them it ceases, that is their nature, their ego that drives their psychopathic selfishness and greed, their psychologically need to dominate and control others in society, up to and including live or death decisions over others (this not for mutual benefit but to feed personal ego). Economics is just a religious framework around the underlying psychology of the individuals involved and economists the high priests of that religion, who just exactly the same as all other religious preach the value of their religion for their own personal benefit.
So it is really all about, what framework will allow a minority of psychologically disturbed individuals to control the majority for the benefit of the psychologically disturbed minority. The balance is of course being how much more assertive the majority are in demanding greater equality in access to the resources produced by the society they are a part of. The whole lie of ordinary people versus the PR managed delusion of extraordinary people, the reality is less assertive people versus more assertive people and what happens when those less assertive people, the majority, start becoming more assertive, as in the meek shall inherit the earth and the not so meek, well, for one to inherit the other must, well, die (figuratively speaking of course as dying of old age with all their corruptive power stripped away is quite fine, subject to the crimes they commit to gain and keep power).
So you break down coding to it's elements and create sound logically structure. You do not want all coders, churning out code, you want to break down coding, it's application it's final result into all the tasks required to achieve a successful outcome. So code researchers, who gather information on the problem to be solved, who define and layout the problem. Next code describers, who describe the problem in coding terms and break down the problem into it's various coding elements. Then you have coders who produce those elements, those rough initial draughts that lay down the framework for the code. Then you have debuggers who take that framework and flesh it out and debug it. Then you have code documenters, who just detail the code for future review and rework. You break up the task so you do not waste skills, you establish a training path from documenting up to research and you train them along the way as they carry out their tasks.
You want creative coders, creating code, not talking to clients, no breaking down specs, not engineering, not debugging (which is often the most lengthy and time consuming task) and certainly not adding in descriptions for what is going on (can be pretty time consuming if done really well).
Note the huge error, the denial of those persons, their culture and their heritage "sacred sites in Hawaiian religion and culture". This repeated denial of equal existence by Immigrants that stole the land but deny the people. It is not "sacred sites in Hawaiian religion and culture", a denial that they are American, it is "sacred sites in Hawaiian American, religion and culture". They are meant to be Americans, their culture and religion are mean to be American culture and religion and not somehow be publicly defined as be foreign and those people are being foreigners. This is repeated again and again in immigrant dominated societies, the complete denial of those original inhabitants as being real citizens, they are foreigners in the own land, who hold foreign non-Immigrant cultures and beliefs and whose history is not Immigrant America, it is foreign to Immigrant America but the immigrant capitalists of course still want that land whilst they was want to denying the people and who those people are. Hawaii culture and religion is 'American' culture and religion and you are horribly racist and prejudiced if you believe any different (one element of it, of course, not the totality of American culture and religion). They are meant to be Americans and hence their culture and religion are meant to be American and not denied by immigrants as being somehow foreign to those immigrants and thus denied in a country now predominately occupied and controlled by foreign immigrants.
The other alternative is an honest government is elected, audit the Federal reserve, point out it fraudulent and conspiratorial nature, seize it's assets, throw it's executives and investors in prison, seizing their assets and voilÃ, no debt, in fact likely a very high surplus. That money that is owed is owed to someone and when that someone can legally pretend to have money to lend and the claim repayment via real assets, logically that is fraud and a conspiracy and they should be in jail.
What a load of crap. The Major ISPs want to become content publishers, nothing more and nothing less. They want a 30% hit from all the content sold on their networks.
The internet, the digital highway, needs to be as regulated as every other road for smooth traffic flow. Imagine a sick corporate world, where you are forced to pull over to allow a corporate executive through and if you do not move over fast enough, forced straight off the road. Imagine roads run as revenue operations, fines for everything, penalties for excess use, penalties for not using it enough, all you movements subject to review. Imagine wanting to drive to one place only to be forced to drive somewhere else instead. Imagine tolls on every road and footpath. Imagine someone else owning your driveway, front path and garage. Imagine being charge for having more stuff in you car when you use roads, four people four tolls, full boot, extra fees. That is corporate freedom in roads just as they would implement it on the digital highway.

Also if people are actually serious about a solution to global warming, sea level rise and the collapse of property values for underwater front properties, we are going to need loads of energy.

You do not have to make money to be of worth to the human society you are a part of and factually the greatest contributions are done for free everyday, those contributions that bind humanity together. Being able to buy more junk and more fully obeying the demands of marketing, than others around does not make you special, unless you think being a victim of marketing somehow makes you 'special' (I remember that as being the euphemism for disabled children, somehow seems more appropriate when talking about victims of mass consumerism, hmm, the 'special' people).
Philanthropy the art of making the myopically greedy look better, at least for a short time. Charity, helping to serve a better a society for the long term with no reward or recognition, just the ones you provide yourself. Which is the greatest accomplishment, which is shared with the many rather than being exclusive to the few and which in total contributes far, far more to the whole of human society.
Suck it up. Very tight drone regulations are coming, get over it and play with a different toy instead. Likely, use restricted to private property with the permission of the owner. Excluded from all non approved public spaces. Temporary permits for specific public spaces at specific times. The new regulations will require quite a bit of effort in the US because it has to make its way through state and local governments but the regulations are inevitable because stupid is as stupid does and anyone no matter how stupid can buy a drone and crash it into something or someone. Bringing them down is all too easy with specific radio frequency jamming devices and catching the individual is easy, just wait for them to try to recover the drone with remote in hand.
If they are smart enough to be Manager, a group leader of UCL Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, than you should be smart enough to check the facts prior to acting perhaps everyone should drop him a line g.rees@ucl.ac.uk and keep the viral social media joke running. Experience is often a better teacher than theory.
If they are older and subject to attacks, the result, "Fuck off, I am too old to bother with this any more see you later". Of course the narcissist who kicked it off to snatch their bit of fame regardless of consequences, they tend to pick their targets to avoid the risk of repercussions. Admittedly the individual involved is likely to be very sensitive breaking three main stream media laws of acceptability, a female academic, an overweight female (overweight men not being subject to the same level of judgement) and of course the more obvious (being far more obvious now thanks to the public display of US law enforcement activities against them), this sensitivity resulting in exaggeration of instances of perceived prejudicial slight even to the point of believing the exaggeration as real. Still a nasty hatchet job for a slice of fame and likely to cause a significant problem with her sheep er followers and likely as a result of screwing someone else career on purpose has screwed her own because clearly the attack was prejudiced by the victim being too old, too white, not very funny and very likely to back down regardless (an easy victim).
You kind of ignored the planning part, factually the most important part. People pay extra for homes in better, quieter more stable neighbours. Let's say MI the grandparent is a dick douche bag and wants to buy up a good neighbourhood cheap. No planning laws, so MI the dick douche bag buys one house a full price and starts renting it out for biker parties, every single night. Neighbours can do nothing because no planning laws and a driven out, new buyers don't want to buy in at full price because of stories about 7 day a week all night biker parties (and drugs and sexually aggressive behaviour and random acts of violence). So this enable MI the anti-planning dick douche bag to buy up all the properties cheap and voila shut down the biker parties and rent the properties at a high return.
People go on holiday to party and because they are on holiday they party every single night they are physically able to. People pay extra to live in quite well behaved neighbourhoods. Inevitably MI dick douche bags turn up trying to exploit this for their own personal greed and those societies grab those arseholes fine the crap out of them and shut them down, whilst the MIs of the world bitterly complain about statism and their being prevented from exploiting every imaginable situation to their advantage and of course screw everyone else.
Funny I have noticed slows downs with windows 7 with upgrades. The culprit being the habit of upgrades turning on unused services which inevitably slow the system down, this especially if you tend to tweak services (disabled, manual, auto, using guides like http://www.blackviper.com/ ), to better manage performance. M$ often, tend to reset services to default settings, less so now than before. Requiring a review of service settings to get performance back.
So likely they simply need to review the services running on those systems and turn off the unnecessary ones. Also the delayed boot for many services can cause, 'perceived' performance issues ie the system appears to be up and running but some services you need to run might still be waiting to boot but you run your application and it runs horribly as back ground services are still booting up, this performance impression is then left behind in the users mind and they become more sensitive to other delays (M$ also did tend to shift more services to delayed start in upgrades).
That problem is caused by M$ seeking to B$ their way through boot up speed tests by simply not completing the process and pretending for tests results it has been done. This forces new tests, no longer to desktop but say from switch on to a website completed loaded in say Firefox. So they might have good to the desktop quicker but that affect was destroyed by slower launching of their applications.
Middling performance, high performance, low performance, that is all silly twaddle. Appropriate performance for the appliance application is the correct. 50% higher performance than you need is simply wasted and idle. Gaming performance is tricky, the game itself needs to target the majority of the market segment for that style game, it needs to run well and look good at middling performance and reality is, games often run far more stably at those levels rather than at higher graphics which tend to crash more because they are tested less, non-majority market segment.
AMD likley simply focusing on NVidia at this time and wants to make it's GPU look as good as possible and is using Intel to do that, rather than the obvious answer of using two lower power, lower temperature CPUs and doubling the number of cores. Two CPUs don't not work as efficiently as one bigger CPUs in performance but you can still gain a big jump with cheaper parts but it does let you balance things out better with one CPU running at higher speeds whilst the other is running in efficiency mode or if demand isn't there pretty much switched off.
Now of course your comment touches on the future of electric vehicles, keeping in mind the electronic companies hiding in the background behind Tesla Motors testing the waters based upon Tesla Motors Experience.
Forget Chevy, Ford, GMH, the new motor builders or road appliance manufacturers will be the electronics companies. Some mergers, some acquisitions and of course Korea's unique vertical integration of manufacturers mean they are already there.
So say Sony and Panasonic motors, with a largely electronic vehicle, running FOSS but with content management as an extension to the Big Screen Computer, the Tablet remote, the mobile phone and of course the ultimate mobile (also all the other home appliances), the car or more a utility vehicle with greater emphasis on function, the all electric compact SUV, in the city or out in the country on a picnic and still providing access to shared content and helping to create new content.
That better battery is drawing a huge amount of focus, lighter with greater capacity and low manufacturing cost, the current technological holy grail in so many areas, cars, mobile devices, home energy generation and storage. With that level of focus the better battery is likely not that far off and it puts current automotive manufacturers under serious threat as well as of course the fossil fuelers.
You have just barely touched on what is really happening, this best described by economics versus psychology. Psychopathic capitalism can only exist where psychopaths dominate economic control, without them it ceases, that is their nature, their ego that drives their psychopathic selfishness and greed, their psychologically need to dominate and control others in society, up to and including live or death decisions over others (this not for mutual benefit but to feed personal ego). Economics is just a religious framework around the underlying psychology of the individuals involved and economists the high priests of that religion, who just exactly the same as all other religious preach the value of their religion for their own personal benefit.
So it is really all about, what framework will allow a minority of psychologically disturbed individuals to control the majority for the benefit of the psychologically disturbed minority. The balance is of course being how much more assertive the majority are in demanding greater equality in access to the resources produced by the society they are a part of. The whole lie of ordinary people versus the PR managed delusion of extraordinary people, the reality is less assertive people versus more assertive people and what happens when those less assertive people, the majority, start becoming more assertive, as in the meek shall inherit the earth and the not so meek, well, for one to inherit the other must, well, die (figuratively speaking of course as dying of old age with all their corruptive power stripped away is quite fine, subject to the crimes they commit to gain and keep power).
So you break down coding to it's elements and create sound logically structure. You do not want all coders, churning out code, you want to break down coding, it's application it's final result into all the tasks required to achieve a successful outcome. So code researchers, who gather information on the problem to be solved, who define and layout the problem. Next code describers, who describe the problem in coding terms and break down the problem into it's various coding elements. Then you have coders who produce those elements, those rough initial draughts that lay down the framework for the code. Then you have debuggers who take that framework and flesh it out and debug it. Then you have code documenters, who just detail the code for future review and rework. You break up the task so you do not waste skills, you establish a training path from documenting up to research and you train them along the way as they carry out their tasks.
You want creative coders, creating code, not talking to clients, no breaking down specs, not engineering, not debugging (which is often the most lengthy and time consuming task) and certainly not adding in descriptions for what is going on (can be pretty time consuming if done really well).
Note the huge error, the denial of those persons, their culture and their heritage "sacred sites in Hawaiian religion and culture". This repeated denial of equal existence by Immigrants that stole the land but deny the people. It is not "sacred sites in Hawaiian religion and culture", a denial that they are American, it is "sacred sites in Hawaiian American, religion and culture". They are meant to be Americans, their culture and religion are mean to be American culture and religion and not somehow be publicly defined as be foreign and those people are being foreigners. This is repeated again and again in immigrant dominated societies, the complete denial of those original inhabitants as being real citizens, they are foreigners in the own land, who hold foreign non-Immigrant cultures and beliefs and whose history is not Immigrant America, it is foreign to Immigrant America but the immigrant capitalists of course still want that land whilst they was want to denying the people and who those people are. Hawaii culture and religion is 'American' culture and religion and you are horribly racist and prejudiced if you believe any different (one element of it, of course, not the totality of American culture and religion). They are meant to be Americans and hence their culture and religion are meant to be American and not denied by immigrants as being somehow foreign to those immigrants and thus denied in a country now predominately occupied and controlled by foreign immigrants.
The other alternative is an honest government is elected, audit the Federal reserve, point out it fraudulent and conspiratorial nature, seize it's assets, throw it's executives and investors in prison, seizing their assets and voilÃ, no debt, in fact likely a very high surplus. That money that is owed is owed to someone and when that someone can legally pretend to have money to lend and the claim repayment via real assets, logically that is fraud and a conspiracy and they should be in jail.
What a load of crap. The Major ISPs want to become content publishers, nothing more and nothing less. They want a 30% hit from all the content sold on their networks.
The internet, the digital highway, needs to be as regulated as every other road for smooth traffic flow. Imagine a sick corporate world, where you are forced to pull over to allow a corporate executive through and if you do not move over fast enough, forced straight off the road. Imagine roads run as revenue operations, fines for everything, penalties for excess use, penalties for not using it enough, all you movements subject to review. Imagine wanting to drive to one place only to be forced to drive somewhere else instead. Imagine tolls on every road and footpath. Imagine someone else owning your driveway, front path and garage. Imagine being charge for having more stuff in you car when you use roads, four people four tolls, full boot, extra fees. That is corporate freedom in roads just as they would implement it on the digital highway.
