I understand the sentiment, though I disagree with it. "Trump == BAD || Trump == OTHERPARTY" so let's do all we can to delegitimize the election."
But widespread hacking seems to me to be a near impossibility, due to the way the US election system is set up. For those outside the country: We don't have a central counting system. It's district-by-district, state-by-state. With different machines, people, safeguards, watchers, etc. Not impermeable, but pretty darn good.
If the Russians did "hack" the election, it was via propaganda to change the hearts and minds of voters. Which is exactly what our politicians do every day. So even if they were involved, even at the request of a given candidate, I don't quite see the problem. It's just the modus operandi, working as designed to fool the American public into voting for a particular candidate.
Google Fiber was abandoned just as the FCC made it illegal for ISPs to use the demographics of their subscribers for advertising purposes. This tells you what the purpose of Google Fiber was.
So you want to trade your BTC for goods and services but not pay taxes on the source of the income (aka "maintain privacy")? I don't think that will fly well in the US, which is why you don't see many outlets available.
I was born here, and fortunately our constitution does not allow you or me to simply kick someone out. Because I have a feeling who would get kicked out, based upon how large swaths of territory voted...
The US is a group of 50 states with completely separate governments, ideals, constitutions. My point is that the ideals and size of the state of California account for the entirety of the difference.
My state, Tennessee, is VASTLY different than California. Everybody is using a popular vote argument like the country is united against Trump, which is not accurate.
California chose Hillary by 3.4 million cotes. Hillary won nationwide popular vote by 2.9 million votes. The entire difference and then some is the state of California.
Actually it doesn't. In this day and age, all that matters is that your statement goes "viral." Only a small percentage of people will actually care to check up on it.
Basically, they're doing what everybody did before the government injected itself into every facet of life. "Autonomous vehicle testing permit?" Who is the government to say they know more about autonomous vehicle testing than the people actually creating it?
With this great liberty comes risk, of course. The moment someone gets run over, the jig is up.
I think it's probably a good thing too, but will it stand the test of judicial review?
If I am a business and I want to put a non-disparagement clause or review gag order into my contracts, I don't see why I can't. Nobody is forced to do business with me, and they entered knowingly (presumably) into the agreement.
I'm 32 and I know and watch all of the people mentioned. I don't want Casey Neistat. His content is garbage that doesn't apply to me.
They probably acquired his company because of the political pull that he has; he convinced hundreds/thousands of other youtubers to publicly endorse Hillary on their channels.
So these people are "pro-choice" and others are "pro-life." Doesn't it make sense if you're an ideologue to take away the positive connotations of "pro" and even "life" by calling your opponents "anti-choice?"
More likely that judges throw out prison sentences without fully adjudicating the minutia of cases when faced with people who can't afford lawyers that can make a reasonable case.
I'm smelling a rat here. I check slashdot.org multiple times a day, and there are currently 1,2,3...**5** Microsoft product update "news" stories on the homepage. What gives?
Can someone explain why the backend matters? I've not used Angular 2 but have used 1 extensively, and it always just calls a rest service for JSON. I understand others will have other needs, but won't you always just be calling a URL to get or submit data? That service could be written in BASIC for all I care.
This. Looks pretty cut and dry to me. I love how everyone gushed all over it when it was announced. Made no sense to me that a business owner would make a decision like that out of the goodness of his heart. I know. I sound like a Scrooge.
But that's how it is. Start your own business so you can be a shot-caller.

There are many, many reasons to bash Microsoft. MS SQL Server is not one of them.

I failed at math? Here's my citation, where's your's? http://www.cnn.com/2016/12/21/...
You mean the US electoral college and Putin, because in popular vote terms, California preferred Clinton.
FTFY. And of course those who want citations: http://www.politico.com/2016-e....

If you think anything on FB (or any other platform for that matter) is ephemeral then I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
And no processor either. Basically, you just daydream.

All of a sudden, the left and the media are afraid of the powers that have been given to the president...
The law allows for certain restrictions on speech, including:
(1) trade secrets or commercial or financial information;
I assume this will allow Oracle to ban you from pushing benchmarks, or allow google ads to prevent you from disclosing your income.

Shut the fuck up. Running Linux used to not be a given, asshole. It used to be a true accomplishment, and pardon us old guys for appreciating that.
Tell that to surrogate mothers.

if it's a video, use something made for video. Here's a youtube link to the event. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
Your only mistake is assuming that the number is "arbitrary." More likely it's extremely calculated for the most political impact.
