You need spies in order to catch the other side's spies.
That's like saying the only way I can catch a burglar is to break into his house and find my stuff. Nope. If I catch him in the act, that's good enough. And it's perfectly OK for me to watch my own house to catch him.
"normals" think normal, are good socially, and are not as good at logic.
Or "normals" (socially well adjusted people) who are also god at logic hide it. Because many of the social niceties that define "normal" lead to organizational inefficiencies.
Social justice warriors can keep trying to solve it
Because the definition of "social justice" is quite often undermined by work that the geeks do. For years, the SJW battle cry was that men and women are created equally. And studies attempting to show otherwise were shut down at the funding committee level. And then people started to slip research in sideways. Or found things by serendipity while looking for something else. Like brain differences between men and women shown on fMRIs. Or correlations discovered by examining huge corpus of posted text that reveal fundamental differences in male/female (and gay/straight) writing styles sufficient to categorize people with a fair level of accuracy.
All of the above is labeled as "not normal" by the SJWs because it interferes with their agenda. Not that their agenda is completely wrong. Let people try to achieve what they want without having to fight stereotypes. But the science says that women will e less likely to succeed the Army Rangers training program. And overall, that's the smart way to bet. "Normals" will understand this, but not rub people's noses in the differences for the sake of social harmony.
before 1950. That is when it was initially launched.
OK. But I was taught the Nazis launched it at the end of WWII. And it rotates to keep one face toward the Earth so we can't see their base on the other side.
Large conglomerates are mainly a US creation. A concept created by Wall Street to keep CEOs shuffling operating companies around while the financial consultants skim off exorbitant fees for financing that activity.
But if you go to the grocery store in the next town, do you still owe your neighborhood store money? No? Welcome to the majority of the world. Yes? Welcome to the USA.
if persons *are* subject to U.S. laws while overseas
Depends on the law. If it involves extraordinary rendition or torture of detainees, it appears to be 'game on' for US law enforcement. On the other hand, if it's hiring a couple of Columbian prostitutes*, no way.
I'm beginning to think our government is populated by a bunch of perverts. A little restraint, light whipping and humiliation is OK. But straight sex? Not on our watch!
*BTW, no US law was broken in this instance. There are no federal laws against prostitution, only state. The only laws broken were Columbian, refusing to pay for service. Listening to the GOP legislators get their panties in a twist over the hiring of hookers had me ROTFLMAO.
Simple solution: ban cell phones from the testing chamber. It wouldn't be that unreasonable a move, as cellular signals could interfere with sensitive instrumentation. In fact, ban all non test related electronics from the chamber.
Imagine that. Someone thinking, "Ohhh, shiny! Let's try this because it's new and cool."
It's also a method where some self-important developer can shoehorn their crap into the kernel. Now we've got to include the header and/or library into the build. And who knows what crap might get into it by the next version.
I'm not sure if this is an example of that problem. I can't find overflow_usub docs online. All I get is adverts for drain cleaners. But it is a practice to be avoided on principle.
That is RF bandwidth that some poor, deserving cellular corporation could be using to sell more iDroid phones to suckers. You act as though the radio spectrum was some sort of publicly owned resource or something. The CEOs of AT&T and Verizon are crying themselves to sleep every night, you bastards!
There were rape kits that had been waiting to be processed for eighteen years.
And what do you suppose would hapen if priorities were reversed? If evidence for rape/murder convictions was processed in a timely manner, but drug evidence was shelved for years? The DEA would shit themselves and come after state officials. Because the DEA has nothing better to do than protect its business model and law enforcement market share.
Close the DEA. Delegate it's duties to the FDA and FBI.
The USA has constitutional prohibitions against this kind of activity. So the NSA and friends have to make a show about complying with the law. British prohibitions against this are much weaker. So the government just comes clean about it.
I'm not certain which society is easier to live with. One that lies to you and the judiciary branch or one that just does as it pleases but admits it.
because we didn't have to worry (too much) about the target platform. "Hello world" was pretty much the same on a PDP-11, DOS PC or whatever. Now, people are giving examples of Javascript in a browser (so you need to know what <script> and </script> are for), Facebook, etc. What about on an Arduino?
You think this is tough for a kid? Wait until you get into the real world and have to listen to some supposed CS grad whine that they can't figure out Xlib. Or how to write an init shell script?

It simply isn't done that way.
Sometimes it is.

Only a few remaining bugs need to be worked out.

In Japan? I don't think so. Most of the pictures I've seen from there have some pretty distinct pixels.
Not just Japan. Look up mittelstand.

Taxes are not theft, they're the cost of civilization.
Our civilization is just fine already, thanks.
Unless the 'cost' you refer to is blackmail to be paid to ensure that a bunch of anarchists^H^H^H^Hactivists don't rise up to disrupt it occasionally.

Go won't be used for Linux kernel programming anytime soon.
