So, what's the story here? Is this just another pathetic attempt to smear Trump and praise Hillary?
No, it is the opposite. It shows that Trump's organization can anticipate potential threats, and preempt them, while Hillary has failed to do the same.
Except the high-value semiconductors can be made elsewhere where it is cheaper as well.
For the high end, bleeding edge stuff, it is best to have the fab close to the designers, and close to the vendors for the latest steppers. So the high-value stuff is made in America, because America is the cheapest place to make it when all the costs are considered.
Better yet, tariff their goods if they don't follow decent pollution and labor laws.
... and then repeal those tariffs when consumers see prices soar for half the stuff we buy, millions of American jobs disappear because China retaliates with their own tariffs and their imports shift to Europe and Japan instead, and Chinese factory jobs move to Mexico instead of returning to America.
Protectionism is one of those solutions that is "simple, obvious, and wrong".
So does that mean you can tell us how a "dark web index type thing" differs from a "web page"?
The difference is that people can't access it without a password, and it doesn't show up in public indexes like Google. Much of the dark web doesn't even use DNS, just numerical IP addresses.
Nobody except the rest of the world maybe. You know, that place where there is actual competition in the market.
It is a lot more complicated than that. Most of the rest of the world actually has less competiton. Many countries have a single "national champion" provider. America has more older infrastructure, a legal system that favors obstructionism, and a political system that favors NIMBYism.
Actually, they don't. Most blacks live in neighborhoods with sizable populations of white, Hispanic, etc. At the last census, only 28% of blacks lived in neighborhoods that were at least 85% black.
Just tell it to HR when they find out you're over 50. : (
If you are over 50 and you are trying to get a job by going through HR, then there is something wrong with you.
Someone with decades of experience should have a deep network, and plenty of ex-coworkers to tap for opportunities. If they don't, that is because those co-workers don't want to work with them again. So why should I hire them?
The fact that lots has been invested in the past should be ignored.
Yes, it should be ignored for accounting, but it should not be ignored for accountability. The F-35 program has been a disaster, for mostly predictable, and predicted, reasons. It was a "kitchen sink" boondoggle, designed to be everything for everyone. It is even designed to take off vertically, like a helicopter, which inflated the cost and compromises its ability to do almost everything else. It was designed to fight "yesterday's war", while the future is obviously unmanned drones. But the USAF top brass are pilots, so they simply put on their blinders and ignore the future, so they can get the new toys and wear those snazzy leather flight jackets.
A lot of people should lose their jobs for this fiasco. But more importantly, we need to learn some lessons about project management and strategic planning, so things like this don't continue to recur.
Do you own land? Do you think you own the mineral rights to your land if you do?
Yes, I own land. So do my parents. For more than a decade they received monthly royalty checks from Conoco for a gas well. The well is currently capped because of low prices.
So why do we let national resources be private land?
In America, if you own the land, you own the mineral resources under it. Many other countries nationalize mineral resources. Nearly all those countries are poorer and less productive than America, especially in the mining sector.
Resource extraction should not be profitable for individuals, it should be profitable for the nation as a whole.
Karl Marx would have been in total agreement. Your idea has been tried. You might want to read some history books to see how it turned out.
neural network models are prohibitively hard to interpret and draw conclusions from)
Biological neural networks are also hard to predict and interpret, so I don't think that is a very good argument. A system doesn't become less intelligent just because you don't understand how it works.
Deep NNs have become a "fad" because for many applications, they work better (sometimes far better) than the alternatives.
If you disagree, perhaps we can settle this over a nice game of Go.
"Mainstream" has been used as a verb since at least 1975, when the IDEA act was passed, and handicapped children were "mainstreamed" into regular classrooms. The meaning of the word is obvious, and the usage in the headline is cromulent.
You have no idea what a society without religion would look like.
I doubt if ETL would have much negative effect on religion. I know plenty of religious people, and they are MORE likely to believe in aliens than the non-religious people that I know. Mormonism includes an affirmative belief in life on other planets. Back in the late 1800s, it was widely believed that there were canals on Mars, and far more people believed in ETL than believe today. I was not used as an effective argument against religion.
That depends on the poll. Professional pollsters tend to be accurate. Polls run by journalists tend to be inaccurate, partly because they are more interested in drama than accuracy, but also because they fail to properly account for bias. So when Hillary does well in a debate, and her numbers shoot up by 5%, journalists report that her support has surged. Professional pollsters understand that what is really happening is that her supporters feel upbeat, and are more likely to participate in surveys, while Donald's supporters feel demoralized, and hang up the phone. So underlying support for the candidates barely budged, it is just that the sampling bias shifted.
I approve of governments hacking each other and sharing each other's dirty little secrets with the public.
Indeed. For an example of what happens when we don't do this, look at Europe exactly 100 years ago. WW1 was caused by secret agreements, and massive misunderstanding of other countries intentions. For instance, the Germans were shocked when Britain entered the war against them. They shouldn't have been. There were even misunderstandings between allies. The Austrians expected the Germans to defend their eastern border while they invaded Serbia. Instead, Germany sent 90% of its army against France, leaving the Austrians to face the full force of the Russian offensive into Galicia. If the spies had done their jobs, perhaps the war could have been avoided.
It would be best if countries would volunteer to be transparent, but that is not realistic. So leaks, hacking, and spying are the only way to prevent excessive secrecy, and the corruption and misjudgement that goes with it.
No, I didn't, and neither did you. The summary mentioned that it is illegal to discriminate when advertising for housing and employment. But there is no general prohibition against discrimination in advertising. If you think there is, then cite the law.

So, did they count laptops as desktops or as mobile devices?
For the purposes of TFA, laptops are desktops. "Mobile" only includes smartphones and tablets.

Can you Also deal with competing Companies?
Many drivers drive for both Uber and Lyft. They have both apps on their phone, and go to whichever gives them a fare first.
Or maybe it's because the pick up point is in a high crime area.
No. The study controlled for that. The pickup locations were the same.
Most blacks tend to live in black neighborhoods

Let me repeat: you cannot live in Space for long periods of time. That will never change.
The health problems with space are radiation and lack of gravity. O'Neill Cylinders solve both problems.

Amazon is supposed to vet the 3rd parties they work with.
Says who? Is eBay also supposed to vet 3rd parties? What about Craigslist?
Amazon is on the hook.
Says who?
No, but they should heavily vet anyone who wants to sell on their site.
If they offered an optional vetting service, how much extra would you be willing to pay? Would you pay even more for "heavy" vetting?
So why do we let national resources be private land?
In America, if you own the land, you own the mineral resources under it. Many other countries nationalize mineral resources. Nearly all those countries are poorer and less productive than America, especially in the mining sector.

Karl Marx would have been in total agreement. Your idea has been tried. You might want to read some history books to see how it turned out.
Most mining jobs are ALREADY gone. They disappeared when the steam engine and the backhoe replaced men with shovels and pickaxes.
We have been replacing people with technology for centuries. The biggest job destroyer in the history of the world was the steel plow.
People that go for fads like this one usually think they are "cool", "modern" or even "cutting edge", when nothing like that is true.
Exactly. The really cool kids, like you, just sit on the sidelines and sneer at the dorky nerds that are getting stuff done.

same with the USA presidential political polls

You didn't find it in the summary, or what?
No, I didn't, and neither did you. The summary mentioned that it is illegal to discriminate when advertising for housing and employment. But there is no general prohibition against discrimination in advertising. If you think there is, then cite the law.
