They lost on a technicality and the case is bein retried, and they'll win this time. The last judge kind of made that clear when he threw the last one out because they were just too vague in a couple of statements.
Your understanding is wrong:). This has been clearly documented for years. And it's repeated every time some idiot posts another OMG DRONE REGULATION story on slashdot. The last change was in 2007, and that was just a clarification, not really a practical change.
The only private airspace is inside your house/building. The FAA regulates all outside airspace, even that around your head, though the rules are relaxed at that level. Buildings are regulated by the FAA as well. A baseball in flight is under FAA jurisdiction, as is a rock you throw.
You don't own any airspace regardless of whose property is under it. You do have some protections as the owner of some property, but that doesn't mean you get to makeup your own rules.
You can't allow for consent at all, if you do, every contract will simply require your consent in order for service to be rendered.
The only way you stop data mining is to make it illegal, no exceptions. Its really no different than outlawing slavery. You can't allow someone to sign away their privacy or bodies to slavery otherwise they'll be duped, tricked or forced into a situation where they have to sign away those rights even if they don't want to.
Want a bank loan? All banks will require you to allow them to mine your data or no loan, so you don't actually have a choice if you want a loan. But it'll just be extended to everything. Cell phone companies already do it. Power companies will start, and they'll add that you have to allow ANY and ALL of their affiliates to mine you as well... and then everyone will become an affiliate of the power company.
Nope, the only solution is to 100% outlaw data mining, which just isn't going to happen because the general public is basically too ignorant of the issue to care.
You're wrong, you shouldn't trust your doctor AT ALL. Your life/health and privacy are far too important to do so.
Your doctor is no better of a person than anyone at the insurance company.
You need to understand that every single person at a hospital is also a person, not some mythical creature who actually cares about you.
99.9% of the doctors created today are just as scummy as anyone else. The age where doctors cared has not existed during my life time, if it ever did. The hippocratic oath is a joke at best, nothing more than lip service.
There is plenty of evidence that fences do indeed keep people on the side they are already on. At the very least, they slow them down enough to make it far easier to catch them.
There is a reason we build fences in places other than just the Mexican border... like Prisons. Do you think fences around prisons are a waste too? Whaat about that great big fence in some asian country... like oh... I don't know... the Great Wall of China?
Will it keep every illegal immigrant out? Of course not. Will it slow down a large number? OF COURSE.
Buyers should ask themselves why anyone would sell a money printing machine.
Some people are better at making the machines than running a business based on the output of the machine.
Its the same reason Catepiller makes mining equipment but doesn't mine gold, they know how to make heavy equipment. Building the equipment is different than running a successful business using the equipment.
As you're discovering, it costs you more to worry about being legal than just paying for photos in the first place.
THIS is the reason so many businesses just avoid open source/creative commons completely. Its too easy to get into trouble, or at least, its too easy to worry about getting into trouble even if you never actually do get into trouble.
There are many ways you can protect yourself by documenting the process, but 9 times out of 10, at that point, you've wasted so much time manually documenting the process/object in question that you would have saved yourself time and money but just buying something, which automatically documents your attempt at being legitimate with a receipt/contract/bill of sale.
As a hardware hacker, god I want one of these. On chip reprogramable DSP!? While it's a niche market, I'd love to get my hands on some, and not have to give up my favorite OS or build custom boards to do signal processing.
Ah, spoken in the true voice of slashdot ignorance.
The protocol is fine, the library isn't that horrible unless your a newbie to dev, nothing needs replaced and it was designed with extensibility to deal with modern problems in a sane way.
Just because you read some document written by someone who wants to replace it for selfish reasons like making their display system the standard doesn't mean its actually true.
But they're not "standard" even if Unicode claims they are.
They are standard in reference to Unicode because the Unicode Consortium defines the Unicode standard. Someone has to be the first to define the standard.
but there is not central body that dictates exactly what they look like, so that pile of poop symbol will vary depending upon which texting app you use it with
Yes, those are called fonts, and in case you haven't noticed, that was true before digital computers with silicon microprocessors even existed and has been true for thousands of years.
The apps that use emojis are not coordinating with any standard's body or ensuring that the intended meaning is preserved.
Apple does, hence why the Messages app already matches the new code points. Google Hangouts seems to work fine as well. Both Messages and Hangouts convert even things like:) into the proper unicode code point and use standard fonts for display. Sure, some half assed apps may not work correctly, but anyone that supports unicode and has fonts will receive them properly already.
Emoji is somewhat silly, but its hardly new, just go ask Japan. Just because you're new to the ballgame doesn't mean its a new ballgame.
a bit unclear why, but any HDD I've ever put on the shelf (for 6-12 months) that I try to put back into a machine will typically spin-up, but then fail within a few months after that.
The lubrication in the bearings of the platters and head arms gets thicker over time after being heated a few times. It needs to stay warm to keep a lower/workable viscosity. The drag becomes too great fairly rapidly after even a few months initial use when then stored on the shelf.

Compressed memory? Filesystem compression? Compressed memory before swap? Compressed init filesystem?
Lots of valid reasons. Those are just the ones that I know of off the top of my head and I don't even use Linux.
If the distributor/organizer isn't paying out when they should, WHY THE FUCK WOULD I BUY AN ISSUE OR ATTEND THE CONFERENCE?
Timothy, you're a fucking moron.
The FAA has always had this rule.
To be a flying a 'model' you have to fly by line of sight, i.e. with your eyes on the model, not via electronics. Its been this way for years.

You have it backwards.
The hospital is taking marketing data and using it for pseudo healthcare related reasons.
They aren't giving Taco Bell your health data from the hospital, they are giving the hospital your Taco Bell receipts.
The hospital then uses this to figure out new ways to rip you off for their already ridiculously over priced health services.
(My wife is a doctor, I'm more than qualified to comment on how ridiculously over priced their rip off services are)

Get some fucking perspective.
Static linking isn't unique to Go. It's telling that you just discovered it, and further more don't realize what it is that you've discovered.
It's called a ChocoTaco, and it's been around since I was a kid 30 years ago at least.

He didn't say ship, he said runs on.
Of course, it also runs on Windows and pretty much every other OS of any size as well.

This isn't what your asking for exactly, but it's close:
Apple thunderbolt and whatever they call the normal display port ones are 2560x1440@27", of course they cost $999 too :(
I don't know that they are "worth the money". But I definitely approve of mine.
Vimeo? Your mp4 or mpeg2 on any website?
Google has no monopoly on streaming video.
It has a large FREE service, full stop.
How is that relevant to the discussion of unicode code points? Unicode doesn't define how you conjugate the verb either.
But they're not "standard" even if Unicode claims they are.
