I regard journalists, even those at Fox News, as higher than actors and hollywood middle-men, like netflix. At least journalists are trying to tell *real* stories, twisted or not.
The sooner they render themselves obsolete the better.
Just like a company can hire 1000 people, a company could hire a 1000 companies. Those companies, are, however still able to work for other companies as they see fit. So the "economies of scale" are automatically transformed into a hierarchical structure, where each component is easily replaced by another component.
Just allow companies to only grow up until they have, say, 1000 employees. After that, they can only split.
What this solves: No more conglomerates, companies form modular structures, output of 1 company can be reused by another company at a useful granularity. This leads to much more competition, where previously only monopolies or quasi-monopolies were possible. This, in turn, reduces and redistributes power.
Perhaps we have moved towards an "on-demand" style of consuming. We're not reading an article anymore because an editor assumed we had to read it. Instead, we're reading an article because we were actively looking for it.
In politics, sortition (also known as allotment or the drawing of lots) is the selection of decision makers by lottery. The decision-makers are chosen as a random sample from a larger pool of candidates.
Democracy is a system which is somehow stable, for the ones in power have no incentive to change it, and the people's voice is transformed/interpreted in such a way that it has no effect. So yes.
I wouldn't trust Apple. When this becomes successful, before you know it, they will force other manufacturers out of the market. Look at how they are controlling the app-store, and forcing developers to not compete with Apple's products.
For example, I have some processes that involve visual basic scripts that run on a windows virtual server and send data files to a Unix server that reformats the files using Perl, preparing them to be ingested into an Oracle database.
I guess that answers the question of how many times one can curse in one sentence.

Without plate tectonics, carbon would build up in the atmosphere
Why is that?

The problem with "artistic" blur: shrink the image a bit, and the blur is gone!
(Try it and be amazed).
No, some parallel programming :)
You could install a threadmill behind your desk.
Unless it is haunted by a Maxwell demon.
The problem with that is that it will cool down the inside of the Earth.
You can have a look at the movie "The Core" to see what will happen then...

Perhaps we should move to a different voting system:

Really? Democracy, the end of history?
Democracy is a system which is somehow stable, for the ones in power have no incentive to change it, and the people's voice is transformed/interpreted in such a way that it has no effect.
So yes.
Democracy does not exist. Here's an example theorem that shows it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A...
I have *0* respect for a person who submits to photographs, fingerprints, credit checks or drug tests to get a job.
I work for a modeling agency, you insensitive clod!
The space elevator is so passé.
I'd rather see they research things like molecular biology. There's so much more to gain there, imho.
Anyway, it is nice to see that they do more than developing boring online office applications.

That's a factor of 100 less than what's available in Facebook's and Google's databases separately.

Patents are slowing down innovation.
If Einstein hadn't had those insights, someone would have, probably within a decade of 1905.
Incorrect. According to patent-officer's logic, no person can come up with the same idea as anyone else.
