Lease letting, exploration, drilling and pipeline don't happen overnight. If you want it ready for a war, then all that stuff (especially the exploration and pipe laying) needs to be done beforehand.
I miss the good old days where companies and people announced interesting things they've done rather than interesting things they're thinking of doing.
Given the amount of vaporware announcements I've seen over the past 30+ years, that's the stupidest thing I've read this month.
You'd need to move all the developers there. Otherwise, one developer faced with a court order, men with guns and black fatigues and threats of instant jail for refusal could check out all the source code and hand it over to anyone with a large-enough thumb drive.

Snowden fanboys are amazingly blind to the irony that someone hiding behind Vladimir Putin's skirts is lecturing people on how to run a successful democracy (ignoring the fact that we've never had a democracy).
5 is BS: it would be impossible to write concise science papers without using technical language of the field you are in.
Sigh.
5) Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent. 6) Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.
If there's no everyday English equivalent for "Cetacean"... then, according to Orwell, use "Cetacean".
Or, could this not be rewritten in a more clear manner: As my story is an august tale of fathers and sons, real and imagined, the biography here will fitfully attend to the putative traces in Manetâ(TM)s work of âoeles noms du pÃre,â a Lacanian romance of the errant paternal phallus (âLes Non-dupes errentâ), a revised Freudian novella of the inferential dynamic of paternity which annihilates (and hence enculturates) through the deferred introduction of the third term of insemination the phenomenologically irreducible dyad of the mother and child. http://denisdutton.com/bad_writing.htm
First, there are cameras IN them and pointed at them.
That's why you'd spread it around.
I wonder how long CS keeps those records, and if they run scans for suspicious repeat conversions. Would the FBI be smart enough to ask CoinStar? (They sure weren't very bright with terrorist iPhone...)
Bring them -- in roughly $100 batches -- to various CoinStar machines in your and the surrounding counties. Sure, you'll lose 11%, but that's 11% of free money.
Why? Because it's direct, to the point, and accurate.
Anyone in Academia that breaks Orwell's Five Rules should be tossed from a very high altitude airplane
1) Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print. 2) Never use a long word where a short one will do. 3) If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out. 4) Never use the passive where you can use the active. 5) Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent. 6) Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.
I dunno. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/bait%20and%20switcha sales tactic in which a customer is attracted by the advertisement of a low-priced item but is then encouraged to buy a higher-priced one seems pretty much what I wrote, since the core-only Linux-version will be cheaper than the full-featured Windows version.

After all, it's another local source of fuel for their stuff.
The oil companies want to buy the leases now while they're cheap.
Those PC drones have probably never heard of the Advanced Interactive eXecutive.
Is my math off, or theirs? Because 3.5 oz (0.219 lb) worth of bugs pulling 3900 lbs is a 1:17,800 ratio, not 1:2000.

Good. Someone who invades your castle *should* get shot.
So that argument fails.
Maybe.
I'm sure the EU would object to acquiring a lot of well paid tax payers and a company that generates huge amounts of cash.
I'm sure they'd love it, too. But one government or another would eventually tell Apple to pony up with the source.

Which country, exactly, can it go to where the government can't force the issue if it really wants to?
Ooh, ooh, I know!! They can follow Edward Snowden into the safe, comforting arms of Putunist Russia!!!
Yay!!!
And laser light also gets absorbed by water, smoke, dust, etc in the atmosphere.

(Somehow, my reply disappeared. So, I'll do it again.)
#3 In "very high altitude airplane", at the very (heh) least "very" is redundant, in fact you could just go with "airplane"
Planes can be on the ground. I want a really long fall. Like from a revived Concorde at 60,000 feet.
#4 "should be tossed" is passive voice
Point taken.
#6 wait, weren't they Orwell's Five Rules?
Not according to http://www.orwell.ru/library/essays/politics/english/e_polit/.

You need to explain that to someone as old and slow as me.
that the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution was the Worst Idea Ever.
That's not at all what a bait and switch is.

Run the scripts from within SSMS query windows.
Not "embrace, extend, extinguish", but a classic bait ("SQL Server on Linux!!!) and switch ("but if you want all the features, buy Windows Server.")
Thanks for making the media even more stupid looking than they already are.
Aren't they -- by design -- one-way?
