The problem with this is that as inventions get more and more complex(we've run out of simple inventions for the most part at this point) the amount of money to get that working sample increases. This means that a person must go to either a bunch of VCs who will end up controlling the product, or a corporation. and since it's first to get working, there absolutely nothing stopping the corp/VCs from dumping the idea creator and getting it working through their own R&D.
No, it's cheap, reliable, or fast. Pick two. And it's relative to the thing being produced of course. Cheap or reliable is communism. Or rather, monopoly. Which, really, is all communism is.
Except he's not Keynesian. Neo-Keynesian, sure. Keynes would never have used the stimulus for public works projects in the first place, and in the second, he would have expected debt to gdp to be a fuckload lower than it is. Keynes expected the.gov to run a surplus on purpose and put the money away(something the US government is legally prohibited from doing) precisely to inject the 'slack' into the economy during a depression. Thirdly, he sure as fuck wouldn't have expected for a government to inflate it's currency by a trillion dollars in addition to the stimulus projects. Now, I still think Keynes was full of shit, but at least it was sweeter smelling shit than what Krugman's passing off as Keynesian economics.
It's called cause and effect. Without the Clinton CRA reforms the banks never would have looked into bundling mortgages as securities en masse like they did to ameliorate the bad debt. If they hadn't started the securities trend, some asshole wouldn't have come up with a computer program that stated that securities were a license to print money. If said asshole hadn't come up with the computer model, the banks wouldn't have expanded the sub-prime mortgage model to every level of housing available.
It's only flawed cause they allowed political correctness to infect the security clearance system. Manning had had plenty of emotional outbursts that in a sane system would have seen him stripped of any clearance beyond confidential. The man underwent multiple psych evaluations. MULTIPLE. Even if they didn't return anthing, the fact that he was sent for more than one should have automatically DQed him.
In order to guarantee freedom, one must be willing to back it up with force. Being an expenditure of energy which is only done to protect freedom, by definition freedom has a cost. Thus, is not free.
I'd also point out that since the models assume that CO2 and atmospheric water vapor trap more heat than they demonstrably do, the fact that your link points out that the models predict natural forcing only says there should be cooling can, either in large part or entirely, be explained by the fact that their models are grade A horseshit.
K, now for the million dollar question, were those models made without looking at the temperature data in question. Cause if the people had access to the temperature data while programming the models you're decidedly going to be looking at a computerized version of the BMI. An utterly useless metric that was originally based upon late 19th century Belgian middle and upperclassmen. The modern equations for which were backfit to the data.
If they have access to the temperature data from the sensors than the model is by definition suspect. For one, their models assume much more heat is trapped by the earth than is the case.
If the models were correct and not backfit to the data, there would be a lot more warming shown since as their models assume that the earth traps more heat than it demonstrably does. Since this is not the case, the only way that their models show a close hindcast is if the algorithms used in the models were through adjustment backfit to the data.
Scientists say a lot of things. If and when their computer models can properly predict what the climate change of the 20th century actually was with the data we've collected, or even the last 50 years, I might start to believe them. Until that point however, the models, and the alarmism is worthless. Of course, even if their alarmist nonsense is correct, as the guy who wrote the article snippet gets to, the only way to actually do a damned thing about it is to engineer the atmosphere to have less CO2. This luddite shit, unless we want to write off, at a minimum, 3/4 of the human race, is for the birds.
Except this raid is about Indian rosewood and the Indian government has gone on record saying they fell the law was complied with. Moreover, Martin uses the exact same wood from the exact same supplier and has not seen a raid.
As for the Madagascar raid, the government has yet to actually take the case to court, instead they repeatedly ask for stays and use every means at their disposal to delay the proceedings. Probably hoping that Gibson will crumble and let them sell it off.
But Gibson as a company donates to the Republican party. Whereas Martin, their competitor who uses the exact same wood in the exact same form, remains unraided. They however, donate to the Dems.
Or, in the case of Gibson, their politics. Martin uses the exact same wood through the exact same supplier but since they donate to the Democrat party they remain unraided.
No, not really. If you're working with quantum physics and you don't have to roll a SAN check, you're not doing it right. Whereas with computer logic, once you know what the fuck everything means it makes sense. It's just that learning what everything means and holding it in relation to everything else can be difficult. Quantum physics on the other hand literally is illogical in how it works, even though we have the math to describe it some of the time.

If they were going to the cheapest bidder they'd already have launched with the Dragon capsule.

And if spybot, avg, malwarebytes, or windows defender got rid of it?
Temporary real estate depression is pretty obvious consequence. With a couple of years outside of the exclusion zones prices should rebound.

If marxist ideas only have value as they are implemented in the real world than marxist ideas should be treated as high level radioactive waste.

Horseshit. While some psychotics were driven that way through nurture, there are plenty that are the way they are through nature alone.

I have had wayyy too little sleep over the past couple of days. Rereading my post the plethora of commas hurts my eyes

Might want to check the date on the article your post. That was the previous raid, the one that the DoJ is stalling out it's ass on.
Except this raid is about Indian rosewood and the Indian government has gone on record saying they fell the law was complied with. Moreover, Martin uses the exact same wood from the exact same supplier and has not seen a raid.
As for the Madagascar raid, the government has yet to actually take the case to court, instead they repeatedly ask for stays and use every means at their disposal to delay the proceedings. Probably hoping that Gibson will crumble and let them sell it off.
Well, no, the precedent was set in english common law. Specifically the area of law known as deodandism.
But Gibson as a company donates to the Republican party. Whereas Martin, their competitor who uses the exact same wood in the exact same form, remains unraided. They however, donate to the Dems.
Or, in the case of Gibson, their politics. Martin uses the exact same wood through the exact same supplier but since they donate to the Democrat party they remain unraided.

By 1983 suit he meant a suit which fell under the law in question. When it occurred doesn't matter.
