In USA the internship is the only way for somebody to enter the labour force and actually learn on a job that they could not otherwise land most likely.
In the USA, the internship is the only way to make certain professions near-exclusive to the progeny of the wealthy. Who else could afford to work unpaid for such an extended period?
The minimum wage laws and the socialist State agenda already made it impossible for people to take very low paid position only to be apprentices, so apprenticeship is dead in America because of the minimum wage.
Bullshit. Skilled trades apprentices are paid up here in Canada* and apprenticeship programs are alive and well here, mostly under a cooperative education model around here. I have some other suggestions on possible causes for the decline of apprenticeship in the USA.
*In this province, the pay for a new apprentice in any Red Seal trade is minimum wage or 40% of the wage paid to a 1st year journeyperson, whichever is greater. This percentage increases over the term of apprenticeship (the scale varies by trade), reaching 90% near the end of the term. For example, an apprentice welder starts at 40%, and it increases by 10% for every 900 hours (~6 months) worked, hitting 90% for the last 6 months of the 3 year apprenticeship term, at which point they take their exam.
Even if you reclaimed all the old class A blocks, it would only put off total exhaustion by 12 months or so and then we'd be back to where we are, with no more progress made on transitioning because the problem stopped being imminent..
It's just not worth the kicking, screaming, hail-pulling, and chair swinging that forcing it would entail.
Which I won't have committed to memory since I haven't used it since purchasing the phone 11 months ago and setting up facial recognition.
On the upside, presumably facial recognition phones will have a tough time in the dark and other rare scenarios like darkness that it will fail often enough that I'll need to use the pin code often enough to keep it in memory. But then, if it fails half the time... why bother using it at all. Any time or convenience gained by using it when it works is lost by trying it when it doesn't work. And lets be honest here... making faces at your phone to unlock it is rarely going to be more "convenient" anyway.
1. It requires you to enter the pattern/pin/password any time you to an additional capture.
2. Yes, it does fail in darkness, usually because the camera can't pick up anything at all, much less a face. Also fails if you have your back to the sun or such.
3. I'd say it works about 90% of the time in my experience.
Grow/Shave facial hair... change your glasses... (what if you switch between contacts and glasses).
The existing face unlock handles those fine as long as you do additional captures. And if all else fails, there's the pattern/pin/password backup lock it requires you to have.
Nope. This battle was lost more than 30 years ago in Smith v. Maryland. Metadata (number called, time, etc.) on calls, collected and stored by phone companies in the normal course of business, has no 4th amendment protection and the acquisition of it does not require a warrant.
According to the summary carriers must unlock phones after a certain point. However, I read the article and it makes it sound like the a carrier must simply allow users to unlock phones, not unlock it for them. I'm curious to find out which is correct.
They need to, on request after 90 days, either unlock it for you or provide the means for you to to unlock it (their choice) for whatever fee they wish to charge.
The CRTC has opted to not make this retroactive to existing contracts, so if you're currently on a contract, you're still screwed until it ends, and you've got to wait out the entire preexisting term and can't use the new 2 year cutout.
I don't believe the code allows for them to charge for unlocks so nope unlock in 3 months voila.
Yes, it does allow them to charge and doesn't place any limitation on that charge.
1. Unlocking i. A service provider that provides a locked device to the customer as part of a contract must
a. for subsidized devices: unlock the device, or give the customer the means to unlock the device, upon request, at the rate specified by the service provider, no later than 90 calendar days after the contract start date.
Where's the anti-union? I'm seeing "Experienced union guy utilizes foresight and keeps the old equipment in storage, ready to counter the impending disaster caused Management's latest bright idea". Seems rather pro-union from where I'm sitting.
One guy can watch 50 cameras, but each drone takes a separate operator to fly and monitor.
Depends on how autonomous the drones are. An autopilot system running them around defined points (and allowing you to take manual control to get better view if you see something happening) shouldn't be too difficult.
AT&T's contracts prohibit filing a class action suit against them and the Supreme Court backed them on it on the basis of the ancient Federal Arbitration Act. See AT&T Mobility v. Concepcion.

Unit 3 was reportedly defueled back in September. Not sure about unit 2, which was initially shut down for refueling when this whole thing started.
Basically any equipment upgrades Comcast makes will bring IPv6 with it. IPv6 support is required by the DOCSIS 3 spec.

https://xkcd.com/865/ offers a handy visualization of how big the IPv6 address space is.
One would think they'd be a bit more proactive given that APNIC has already run down to their last /8 and is only giving out one /22 per customer now.

It appears that Amazon already has a groceries section. This appears to be them just expanding it into a less-esoteric selection.

I'm not sure how significant the average transmission loss is
According to the local power company, transmission losses have averaged 9.3% over the last 5 years.

If unions were in charge of the machines I think they would have been destroyed based on the quote below (which is actually from the article)
Citizens Union isn't a labour union.
Where's the anti-union? I'm seeing "Experienced union guy utilizes foresight and keeps the old equipment in storage, ready to counter the impending disaster caused Management's latest bright idea". Seems rather pro-union from where I'm sitting.
Simpler still : #2 pencils and a room full of Mk1 eyeballs.
"We" is Canada. Up here, the national average today is $1.326/litre, which is $5.02/US gallon. Locally, the price is $1.354/l or $5.13/G
Would 40mg (dietary upper limit for zinc) be enough anode to power the thing for ~24 hours?
If you think your prices are sky high, our prices must be in geostationary orbit. Or maybe out at the L2 point.

Nope. Read the case. Any breach of contract claim has to go through AT&T's selected binding arbitration.
But make no mistake about it - the S4 does *NOT* cost $150, and only a fucking moron thinks it does.
Nope, it doesn't cost $150. It costs $244, including the manufacturing.
