"Encouraging" something (renewable energy) by raising taxes on everything else (non-renewable energy) is social engineering in its purest form.
And there is nothing wrong with that.
No, most of the subsidies involve paying for oil exploration costs. And no, there is no difference between the government giving a business $X v.s. reducing their tax bill by $X.
That's why Snowden's friends should host an "Edward Snowden Look-Alike Contest" in Russia.
Then send the finalists all over the world at the same time.
It would drive the American authorities insane trying to determine if any of them was the real Snowden.
You clearly know nothing about brute-force code breaking.
To brute-force a 4096-bit key pair in a reasonable time would require not acres of computers, but entire galaxies composed of nothing but computers. And these computers would have to be able to communicate with each other instantly and not be limited by the speed of light.
The Miller-Uray experiment showed basically nothing.
Only simple amino acids were produced, and had they been formed outside of a laboratory, they would have immediately begun to decompose back into the original chemicals. This cycle would have repeated endlessly.
How they went on to form the more and more complex molecules needed for life is still unknown.
It's just Myrvold saying to the world: "I'm so rich I can force a useless over-priced piece of crap on the market, and there's nothing you can do about it."
All computers make decisions. That's what a program is: a series of loops and decisions.
Dropping a bunch of robots programmed to act like berserker killing machines on a country would serve as a much better terror weapon than dropping bombs.
Trouble is, the "polygraphers" in the police department have a vested interest in keeping the bullshit
going (it is their livelihood) and have probably talked themselves into believing that it is real via confirmation bias. These asshats unfortunately have the ear of the police captains and the politicians that support them.
A what about those federal highways that I'll never drive on? Why should I pay for those?
And what about those federal buildings in Washington? I've never even been there.
And what about those multi-billion dollar spacecraft? I don't even know how to drive one.

It wouldn't cost anything like that much on new construction.
In fact, the solar panels could be the roof.
In fact, the Tea Party originated as an anti-bank-bailout movement.
Possibly true, if "the long run" means "from now until the apocalypse".
Oil companies receive huge tax breaks (which most definitely are a form of subsidy) to "encourage" further exploration.

Emphasis on "could potentially be".
In practice, the judge has absolute discretion whether or not to allow the refusal to be used against the accused.

You got it backwards.
So when did "moral issues" have anything to do with warfare?
FTFY.
Or anyone else's.

Besides, the whole issue of "autonomous" intelligence seems moot.
Every heard of an autonomous soldier?
And provides further examples for the Darwin award.
HD porn is absolutely hideous - big, clearly defined hickeys and zits galore.

Yay!
How could the research be "meaningful" if the statistics are crap?
Damn straight!

But that's not important right now.
