Time for the city of Phoenix to submit a federal DOE grant to install “goddamn steam” catapults to solve this problem and specify it to be coal fired will be a sure fire way to get approval.
Yeah go check out the wage gap and working conditions in the golden gilded age.... a time of pure unbridled capitalism. A wide earning gap between rich and working poor, horrendous working and safety conditions, 10 hour work days x 6 days week. Political influence was available for the taking by those who were able to pay.
She mentions computers taking twenty minutes to start in the beginning of the day
Thanks for that.
I had to laugh at this one as I have a Windows "Enterprise" computer on the my desktop at work and it really does take 20 minutes from bootup to being able to use it. I look at the task manager and lordy the stuff they install is simply mind boggling.
The only valid issue I can see from this is the cost and availability of admin support. As you pointed out all the other issues are prevalent in spades in a Windows only environment.
I switched to CentOS (with Mate) on the desktop several years ago. I have windows on dual boot. I haven't booted into Windows for nearly year. I don't miss windows for anything. When I upgraded from CentOS 6 to CentOS 7 it literally only took me about 2 hours to upgrade and install my toolchain and have backups working. With Windows this would have taken an entire day. I smirk at my associates who worry about Ransomware or just cruft slowing chocking their desktops/laptops.
Hey I had a security guy come into our data room to do a drive inventory and while waiting for me his curiosity got the best of him and he popped open a drive on 70 TB raid.
Anything the increases the market efficiency is better for all players. Good renters will get the best price and will be able to market their rental "reputation" for lower prices (fewer parasites and destructive tenets) . Landlords will maximize their profits and maybe build more rental units which while ultimately lower prices.
The last time I installed VC (taking several hours)... it was not able to completely un-install. It wrapped itself around IE and popped up a debugger every time IE encountered a buggy web page.
Seriously... a spy agency has spy tools. Do the idiots expressing outrage here think that other countries don't have similar set of tools. Why would they want the US to be de-fanged in this area?
What the hell are we waiting for? Having 4.2 Billions years of evolutionary investment held captive at the bottom of one gravity well is not a good long term strategy.
I'm so tired of hearing comments like this, nothing was taken! If Asians are now doing the job you used to do it's because it was given to them willingly by US corporate decision makers!
No it was given to Indians because they could do the same job for lower costs. If you are running a business you look for ways to optimize - not engage in social justice engineering.
Why do 1st world workers feel an overbearing sense of entitlement that they deserve special privileges?
I wonder if this isn't true on more general forums.. especially political forums like TheHill. Some posters have over 100000 posts and those generally are the obnoxious ones.
Consider how much life this man was wasted... probably in the aggregate several lifetimes... his sentence should roughly equal the number human hours he has wasted.
All the riots do were draw attention to Milo and increase his books sale. They would have been smart to just ignore him... which is really what these narcissists fear more.
Donald trump is a stinking pile of poo and Democrats are his allies we need a workers party to fight for socialist revolution! Full citizenship rights for all immigrants!!!!!!
It is odd but usually the "Workers Party" is opposed to Immigration because that is who competes with their jobs. And the pro Corporation party is for immigration because it is source of cheap labor. The alignment of these positions are upside down in the US political arrangement.
I was reading a prospectus on Mathworks and was surprised that they listed Excel as the main Matlab competitor. It is simply horrifying what some people will do with Excel.

Lower wages are not a function of capitalism.

You could probably remove the "cyber" from that statement.

However my use case may be different than others.

Robots don't complain.
Cool... good for them.
Mars can be "terra formed"
No. Mars has no magnetosphere and so all terraforming efforts will fail.
You mean it requires a DIY magnetosphere... A superconducting coil around the equator coupled with a nuclear power plant... switch on.

Trump love Assange.... and vice a versa.

What will happen though when tax incentives fall away?

My kids are my best friends... adventure buddies. And now grandkids oh boy!
The Border guard was just being sure the guy wasn't trying to sneak any climate data into the US

Thanks... you know I felt a bit guilty about posting such a trollish comment but now reading your interesting post made it worth.
Even better with atl-math you can make up you own truths... it makes doing proofs a lot easier.
