Faster rotation would help evenly bake the exterior of Venus. Faster rotation would also spin the molten core, which I believe needs to be spinning in order to generate a large magnetic field comparable to Earth's.
When Congress also demands "information from universities, companies and trade groups about funding for scientists who publicly [accept or] dispute widely held views on the causes and risks of climate change," then I'll care about what "prominent members of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate" think about climate change.
It's not like members of Congress understand the "research or testimony" anyways. Nor do members of Congress care what others have to say; they use testimony as an opportunity for themselves to give speeches disguised as questions.
Again, the current government are already working to increase tax revenue from companies that try and siphon earnings overseas. This is an international problem and if you have a way to solve it that actually works, then HMRC would love to hear from you.
Eliminate income, payroll, and VAT taxes. Replace with retail sales tax.
You're surprised by politicians being scientifically clueless? I guess you can't be an American....
In America, most politicians are educated as lawyers (and rarely in an additional profession). They usually weren't good enough at being a lawyer to succeed in private practice. Then look at the typical undergraduate and graduate coursework a lawyer does (in America). Not one rigorous science course at all. Why do we wonder that politicians are "scientifically clueless" ?
The three laws demonstrates that morality cannot be codified, it's a critique of the 10 commandments and other such lists of rules that attempt to do the same thing for humans..
The 10 commandments are themselves a critique of a rules based approach. In less than 40 days since the commandments were audibly announced by God, to all Israel, they made an idol and worshiped it. As for Adam, he couldn't even follow ONE rule.
Auto isn't obnoxious when it's self triggered. I love using HTMLKit for coding because you can setup custom rules based on the language you're using and just hit a key (your choice of which key) to trigger a pre-defined auto-behaviour. Saves so much time not having to fuss with auto-behaviours you don't intend and not manually entering every slow detail every time. Even places the carat where you want it.
The *real* problem with gold backed currency is that a foreign country (not on a gold standard) can hoard and dump gold, and thus cause economic pain. Yes it would be expensive to do so, but then again, war is expensive too.
[2] It has to run the programs people want to run, because in the real world they don't want to run some MS Office knockoff, they want to run MS Office. Ditto for Photoshop and the dozens of programs they rely on, some very big name products, some very obscure, to do work, have fun, etc.
What I want to run is Office 2003. But that is becoming less and less of an option thanks to Microsoft.
Question to those in academia: Is it true that most students who get a masters in computer science create their own programming language as part of their studies?
After it was announced a year or two ago, I have heard nothing about RDP support in Wayland. Is it getting to the point that Wayland will have first-class support for transparently remoting apps with RDP? Anyone know the status on this? There's precious little info about this on the interwebs, and no real information on what the workflow looks like, say with ssh forwarding.
Just to be clear, are you asking about Microsoft's Remote Desktop Protocol working with Wayland?
This tunnel would be roughly the same length and complexity as the English Channel Tunnel. The combined metro area of London and Paris is 26 million people; Talinn and Helsinki combined are less than 1/10th the size. If you're thinking more in terms of connecting all of Finland to all of Europe the way the Chunnel connects the whole UK to Europe, the population of Finland is again less than 1/10th the size of the UK.
Then this rail project needs to estimate cargo profitability, and only continue if cargo on its own is profitable.
The devices are installed by the oil company/credit card processor (yes, they're usually one in the same). The fuel stations are run by people (either owner/operators or corporate employees) who have skill sets in things other than network administration. They probably never read the manual that came with the devices.
As for empirical study, the rates of CS involvement with women closely followed those with men until about the 80s, when the home computer showed up on the scene, and the advert material focused almost exclusively on male demographics.
That's what the historical data shows.
I wonder: what was the amount of female interest in auto repair prior to versus after the introduction of the Ford Model T?
Releases starting somewhere in the 11.3's and onwards are still consuming all available memory. Without THAT fix I'll stick with 11.2 and flashblock the items I don't want.
Telephone service in the USA is granted monopoly service districts by the 50 state governments to one or more telephone companies within each state. This originally was to encourage the provision of local telephone service when telephony was relatively new (more than 100 years ago). Companies, such as AT&T, operated local districts and franchised technology to other local providers. AT&T began selling long distance (between local districts) in 1885 and coast to coast long distance in 1915. The Kingsbury Commitment (1912) provided for interoperability between telephone networks. Over time, holding companies (including AT&T) acquired local providers and created large multi-state networks. [End of the Line, by Leslie Cauley]. So while the federal government may talk of improving things, the fundamental problem is the 100+ year old state monopolies that inhibit competition in telephone service.
Cable television service (including internet) in the USA is regulated by the 50 state governments. However, the (federal) Cable Communications Act of 1984 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_Communications_Act_of_1984] has been both positively and negatively disruptive. The act was used by cable companies to force state and local government to provide right-of-way access to customers. Either by leasing government owned right-of-way or by forcing electric power companies to lease space on neighborhood overhead power poles. (Note: power companies also have state granted monopolies, which allowed the state governments to force compliance.) Initially there were many providers and a great deal of competition. The problem is the act allowed for Cable Television Franchise Fees [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_television_franchise_fee]. These fees are based on gross revenue collected by the cable company from customers within a local government (ie city, county, or parrish). The local governments discovered that competition drives down prices, which in turn reduces these franchise fees. Thus, local governments have been discouraging competition amongst cable companies.
This is why Americans pay too much money for too little bandwidth.

My solution is not about making people happy. It's about efficient collection of taxes.

if he's talking about head nurses not letting staff take extra time off durring full moons in OB, ER or mental health then that would make sense.
That would be using astronomy, not astrology.

In other words, you use macros.
So the real solution is to speed up Venus's rotation. ;)
