I would substantially increase energy taxes substantially and use the money to fund a nationalized health care system.
The increase in energy taxes would hopefully incent people to move in from the suberbs and live in neighborhoods and walk from place to place. This would likely allow the U.S. to spend substantially less on health care while having quality that was more up to other western countries.
The low level programming, especially ASM is the foundation of everything you'll do. The new languages and models are just abstractions for that. If you understand how a computer works, you should be able to pick the appropriate tools at the appropriate time.
Also, make sure you communicate effectively and know as much math as possible.
It makes the most sense to borrow from the capital gains model. You can perform as many transactions as you would like in the virtual world, but as soon as they are converted back to real money, the net gain should be taxable. This avoids the problems associated with differentiating between people playing the game and people working in the game environemnt. Furthermore losses in a virtual world should be deductible against gains made in a virtual world.
If you have made a lot of money in the game, you can keep that asset inside the game world and improve your character etc, just as you can keep playing in a casino, and only have to declare your 'winnings'. When you extract your asset from the game environement (like selling a stock), you should be required to pay capital gains on that asset.
How do they differentiate between Lobbyists and Journalists? I mean a blogger is much closer to a journalist, and I assume they would not make journalists register. Sure they are biased journalists and their rants are closer to editorials, but this is not lobbying even in the loosest sense of the word.
Under one definition:
"A person who communicates with the Legislature and to support or oppose legislation"
If the blogger does not communicate directly with the legislature than there should be no problem. If your audience is primarily the public then you are not a lobbyist. If you are communicating primarily with members of the legislature then you are likely a lobbyist. I assume common sense would prevail.

I mean since I've been using this russian website, my notion of fair price for music has changed considerably and permanently. At less than 2c a MB i can find what I want, when I want, easily and quickly.
The legitimate price for music is 1$ an album, not 1$ a song- I don't care how many airmiles or RIAA notes I get.
As I figure it, this causes more problems
then it solves.
I mean you can arrange
chips in a checkerboard patter or star,
or whatever and they can capacitively
couple to each other, but you have no
control over which chip capacitively couples
to which.
I guess this would work for a synchronous system wide bus where everyone only has to know about
what's on the data bus, but most current architectures have more than one bus. How do you direct who reads what bus if the bus is just 'there'.
I fail to see why materials with features of a particular scale are implicitly more dangerous than those of another.
I suppose I'm afraid of centitechnology, especially bullet sized things.

That would be awesome. And at the end superman throws Bin laden into a giant office tower and...oops.

That's not quite true. Electric motors, (theoretically) can provide high torque almost instantaneously and continuously over a variety of loads.

My dad calls gigahertz jigaboos. Not sure if this is on topic, but i think its funny.
