Most of the residents said it was fine, but a minority complained.
What happened is that the FAA offered to pay for damages caused by the tests. But when people started turning in bogus claims (mainly from thunderstorm damage), they got pissed and complained to the press and their local politicians.
Anyone who lives in the midwest and can tolerate occasional thunderstorms has nothing to say about sonic booms. Thunder will crack windows.
... start cracking the DRM, burning home-made DVDs and selling them on street corners. And then police would shoot black people for selling these DVDs.
In the case of security clearances, its a matter of informed consent. Very informed. And interestingly enough, the ongoing surveillance of myself has, at times, been of benefit to me.
I wonder how long the alignment between Icarus, the intermediate galaxy cluster and our observation point will remain. Things move in space. How does the 'field of view' of the gravity lens compare with the motion of our solar system around the Milky Way?
Joined a club several decades ago. Members fell into two groups; Those who wanted to have activities earlier in the day. And the night owls, who wanted later meetings. We sort of split and I went with the early birds. Thirty years later, I run across some of the night-owl members. And they look like absolute crap. Add another 10 or 15 years to their calendar age.
I wouldn't be surprised if this takes a neurological toll as well.
How do you "reinstate" something that never existed?
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARPANET#Rules_and_etiquette"It is considered illegal to use the ARPANet for anything which is not in direct support of Government business". And this was the case until around 1995, when the Internet was opened up for commercial traffic.
... that shows what a shitty job academia is doing? My GPA would have been quite a bit higher had I filled out my own report card.
One where you show up for a class on a teachers schedule
Ever consider the fact that all these "teenagers need later starting times" is driven my a bunch of teachers that are having trouble waking up with hangovers after closing the bar the night before?
.. Microsoft has paid Comcast, Verizon and AT&T the requisite fees to ensure access to its Azure services. Because their customers aren't going to be happy if they end up using cloud services in the slow lane alongside Netflix.
Yes. Particularly the parts about responsibility, budgeting one's time and having to deal with the demands of society around yourself. In a few years, you are going to get a job. And your boss might tell you that the work day starts at 8:00 AM. It's your responsibility to get up early enough to get breakfast, shower, dress, catch the bus and get to work on time. And if that means going to bed earlier, that's a skill you should have learned growing up.

Cash has it's drawbacks. Get held up in front of an ATM and see how safe it is. Sweden needs a concealed carry right.
NIMBY neigborhoods
The same neighborhoods that have speed bumps installed. Which garbage trucks hit going full tilt at 6:00 AM.

They were set up by Melania. She's trying to keep an eye on Donald.
Discuss a topic that's not "in the book." Test students on it.
Make fake Wikipedia page first and see how many people answer with bogus material.
But then who pays for a bike before the student is old enough to be employed
Who paid for the cell phone?
OMG mom! You expect me to go to school with last year's iPhone? iPhone X is only $1000. Everyone else is getting one.
Try to give a kid a bicycle and it had better be a bum bike.
How did we ever survive before cell phones?
We didn't. We are all dead now. And this is hell.

WFIRST
We are going to rename it USAFIRST. So Trump will support it.
They haven't caught on to the trick of patenting prior art by appending "using the Internet" yet.
Would this be a crash program?
rm -rf / tmp/junk/
given they are next to each other on the keyboard
Well duck me! So they are.
So, not actually mopping up hobo piss?
Just a few bugs to work out.
you have the option of provisioning leased lined directly to the cloud provider
Or running apps locally.
Interesting. I have anecdote:

We sort of split and I went with the early birds. Thirty years later, I run across some of the night-owl members. And they look like absolute crap. Add another 10 or 15 years to their calendar age.

if the customer is willing to pay
Right. I'll be certain to consider this in my TCO calculations for using Microsoft cloud services.

So yeah, effectively "no kids allowed".
In academia will do a study

The last thing heard on the car's cockpit voice recorder was the AI saying, "Don't make me pull this car over!" In my dad's voice.
So, do you think education is important?
Yes. Particularly the parts about responsibility, budgeting one's time and having to deal with the demands of society around yourself. In a few years, you are going to get a job. And your boss might tell you that the work day starts at 8:00 AM. It's your responsibility to get up early enough to get breakfast, shower, dress, catch the bus and get to work on time.
