Feh. When I took the PSAT, one of the proctors who knew I was the only kid in class with a calculator watch made sure to tell me to take the watch off in front of the whole class.
Does it identify as human and are we supposed to not just accept that but celebrate it and bestow upon it the pronoun of its choice assuming that it further chooses to identify itself somewhere along the gender spectrum?
This is what happens when government punishes people for allowing the lock on their back door to get picked instead of going after the actual criminals. There's also a new "study" that says businesses are working about climate change "to a point". Maybe, but not in the way the radical environmentalist think. What they're really worried about is getting the sh*t kicked out of their expenses due to every increasing regulations making it impossible to stay solvent (see what I did there?).
Most people's visions of the future are what Hollywood comes up with yet I'm surprised that more Hollywood designers aren't employed by the gadget companies. The same goes for cars. Detroit (for want of a better word) always comes out with these concept cars that everyone goes nuts over but they never get produced and we're stuck buying the same boring crap year after year.
Universal basic income would allow a whole lot of insufferable people to pursue their "art' when they should really be working as a stock clerk at Target.
Figures that the New York Times would bestow upon itself the moral authority to call into question people's motives and mental ability. These asshats just love to sit around and pontificate about what should or shouldn't be done based on nothing but they never actually step up and attempt anything of merit themselves.
My dad had to go to the ER recently to get an ultrasound because for some stupid reason the local medical imaging center takes three days to read the ultrasound. In the four hours we were there, we interacted with twelve different paid employees. TWELVE! Beyond that, my brother-in-law is the chief endocrinologist at the hospital where he lives and I asked him how many people the hospital system employs. He said, "About 5000." So I then asked him how many of those are actual doctors or nurses. He said, "Fewer than 1000." He went on to say, "I'm head of the department and I have no idea what these people do all day long." The fact is that they all get paid and a lot of them get paid way more than he does. Forget the cost of prescription drugs. THIS is where the high cost of healthcare lies.
Having flown lithium-powered UAVs for a few years now, I can tell you how scary it is when a supposedly fully charged battery craps out a couple of minutes into the flight. This is never going to work until a different battery technology comes along.
Are they surveying people to find out what level of service they pay for OR are they measuring actual speeds? Put it this way, when I have 150 megabit service, I should be able to get all the streaming video I want without any bandwidth problems. But noooOOOOoooo.... "Insufficient bandwidth" errors come up about every two to three days. So is the internet infrastructure the real problem not the access to it?

It's a pretty safe bet that keeping this stuff clean will be a problem. Oh, and aren't we supposed to conserve fresh water?

Except healthcare. Somehow, a whole lot of people believe that single-denier will magically eliminate all the problems associated with a monopoly.
we would all go insane.
Clearly "Don't be evil" went out riding the coattails of the previous government administration and its anointed successor.
Ask yourself why you believe this guy?

Come on, people. This is funny.

The demo shows building a Linux kernel but how long does that take? How long does Yocto take to build on such a machine?

Nothing worse than a college preparing you for jobs that are on their way out or will leave you hopelessly pigeon-holed.
Companies will be less likely to hire you if they have to spend money to train you.
At companies started by the C students.

I dare all the environmental activists to go to China and India and protest there.
Meanwhile, the friggin' US State Department expects you to submit documents using a Lotus-based form while the rest of the world uses Acrobat.
The whole notion of sea level rise assumes that the Earth's crust is static and unchanging. Definitely not the case.

Remarkably similar to Avodart which is a drug for treating enlarged prostate. Coincidence? I think not.
DHL service sucks moose balls here in the US. Elsewhere in the world, however, DHL is fine.
Yes, folks, it's a thing and it's happening right under your snooty nose.
