this assumes the FBI and/or Prosecutors actually want accurate results.
they don't anymore, if they ever did.
time spent on fingerprint analysis, dna testing, whatever with the result of "this is not the person you want" = 100% waste of time for everyone involved. If the result is "this is the person you want" = 100% useful time for everyone involved.
And if an investigation into a crime takes an extended amount of time, but it is focused on a specific individual, the pressure to ONLY find that the evidence makes the person more guilty gets greater and greater [as finding something that says "this person is innocent" means more and more time and money has been wasted and the only head sticking up is the guy in the department pushing for innocence].
For the 'prosecution' side of the equation, you ONLY get advancement for finding people guilty.
And the rationale that this is all OK is that the defense lawyer should have been able to poke holes in the evidence if the person truly was innocent.
This process may have to be repeated periodically, because these industries tend to not have a very long-term memory. Maybe start with every 5 years and go from there.
Alternately, get University yearbooks with all their MBA graduates, and methodically hunt down and kill each one, to also tip the scale of humanity towards the better side of things. The next guy can work their way through derivative traders. Next up could be upper management of the 10 largest banks and investment houses.
Or even just kill every second one, and leave a note for the ones you don't kill saying you are watching them.
Uber doesn't work that way. Their way is to ignore all regulations until the local gov't forces them to follow said regulations with a court order that shuts them down.
Here in Edmonton, Uber is busy doing a "just try to figure out you have to try to get in court" shell game with the city.
Yes, just think of all the benefits of being under surveillance 24/7/365! And remember to vote [it doesn't matter for who], as it indicates your consent.
My 2004 GMC 3500 factory radio has all the warnings bells go through it [door open, lights on, seatbelt not buckled, engine has exploded, etc]. 3rd party stereo (Alpine 4000NEX) needed an external 'adapter' that plugs into the existing truck radio plug, and that has a small computer/speaker that beeps as necessary, and also provides all the right speaker and power lines, as well as supporting retained accessory power [radio turns off when you open the door after taking out the key] and as a 'reverse gear is selected', so the display shows my backup camera when I go in reverse.
Where private enterprise is paid by the gov't to determine if a project is profitable.
If it is, great, they'll do it, preferably with some kind of startup grant from the gov't to make sure they can make a go of it. If it isn't, great, didn't cost them anything and they can spend the last of the money for thinking of some new idea the gov't can pay them to investigate.
If it could be done profitably, private enterprise must do it instead If it is done for a loss, it must be terminated It it breaks even, mess with it until one of the above rules can be applied.
American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009
The employer must, prior to filing the H-1B petition, take good-faith steps to recruit U.S. workers for the position for which the H-1B worker is sought, offering a wage at least as high as what the law requires for the H-1B worker. The employer must also attest that, in connection with this recruitment, it has offered the job to any U.S. worker who applies who is equally or better qualified for the position.
The employer must not have laid off, and will not lay off, any U.S. worker in a job essentially equivalent to the H-1B position in the area of intended employment of the H-1B worker within the period beginning 90 days prior to the filing of the H-1B petition and ending 90 days after its filing.[34]
Remember, for all those H1B's, they diligently posted ads advertising each job locally and couldn't find any qualified applicants. Otherwise, it would be illegal.
"costs of operating in Australia"...apparently they get more gov't handouts elsewhere. Except perhaps in Rhode Island (thanks for screwing up that source of funds, Curt).
Really? Just reset the drive and it goes fast again?
Do you want to keep the Samsung SSD that's in this drawer? Yes, it's the fastest SSD I own. Why isn't it in one of your computers? Because once I use it, it goes slower than all the other SSDs I have.

Course, none of those terrorists were muslim.
At least the UK is polite. They actually sent letters to terrorists saying they wouldn't prosecute them for past crimes.
Can you imagine the FBI doing that for ex-mob bosses?

Actually, you need to run from these people, because they only have these microbes because they have been messing with some nasty viruses.

Nope. They kill you for being a loser.
You have to go for a draw.
It was totally the last CEO's fault. The $50million golden parachute was money well spent getting rid of that guy so we could hire someone competent.
yes they can, but when they lose, they kill you.
The bitches will get all up in your grill if you call them that.
Males only become elementary school teachers because they are perverts. Fact.
But it would have been just a small power-up. He's be able to rampage across Japan, but it wouldn't be enough for him to make it to the US.
Of course, this is the best kind of project.

Well, at least not at these prices.
So, you pay them to not sneeze on you?
ugh. 0 for 2 [me].
