Honestly, when VA starts collecting sales tax from Amazon it will have zero impact on my buying decisions from them.
I buy from Amazon because it is easy and convenient. With Prime, things are delivered right to the door within a day or two. When same day shipping is there, there will be virtually no where else I'll need to shop.
If there is one thing that can be learned through the history of the 20th century, it is that citizens can trust their governments! Who needs a second amendment, right? Sadly, history clearly dictates that governments are untrustworthy, ask those that survived Mao, Stalin, Hilter, and Pol Pot.
But, they are worried some people may have adverse reactions to the drug and must undergo further testing.
So, millions will die between now and the drug "going through trials" - am I missing something - if the drug has potential to save millions of lives, isn't the drug trial process a bit convoluted then?
I get the point of testing the drug, but just the absurdity of "we have to go through trials, because someone may die"
So, you think the FDA should also regulate notepads, since - you know - people also write down when they take medications, no? Please, describe to me how logging what medications you took could prove deadly. I'd love to hear.
"Medical Apps" is a broad range of things. Apps that make medical decisions for you certainly should be. Are they making a diagnosis? Telling you treatment? Yes.
On the other hand, Apps that help you track things (Say your glucose levels) or tracks your prescriptions - don't need that added cost / regulation.
I'd be curious to see - are the big companies pushing for this? FDA approval isn't cheap OR fast. Small innovators are able to disrupt this market which has been held strongly by the giant medical firms - who can't be quick and innovate.
We have a fine line to walk between stifling innovation and regulation.
I assume US regulation is far too extreme to pursue such ventures. Gates can get more bang for his buck in a country where it doesn't take 20 years just to get approval to move forward.
...the GIF charts the rise of HFT trading volumes across all U.S. stock exchanges between 2007 and 2012. The initial murmur, the brewing storm, the final detonation: Not just unsettling, it's terrifying.... we don't know is [sic] what the long term consequences are of all this hyper-volume as depicted by the Nanex GIF and the kind of systemic risks created from the market's ongoing evolution from human traders to rapidfire AI. Sometimes things go wrong, a software glitch, an algorithm gone rogue and the music stops, like last week when Knight Capital (NYSE: KCG ) lost $10 million a minute when it's [sic] trading platform went haywire...
Apple hinted to sandboxing being mandatory at WWDC11, they announced it would happen later that year, then forced everyone to a few months ago. So, where does this "new" come from exactly?

It just means bacon will be more expensive.
There will be less cheap bacon to go around, but there will always be bacon.
I love this "argument".
Greens have pushed for huge subsidies for electric/hybrid vehicles, in the $5k-10k+ range
Which is more than any of these vehicles would ever pay in gas taxes in their entire life time for road maintenance.
So, we are giving huge tax breaks on these vehicles, then bitching that they aren't bring in tax revenue for roads. It is beyond stupid.
Well file this under no fucking shit.
Schools don't care, because they are making filthy money off of them, that have no incentive to do anything to reduce the prices.
UDID's are pretty useless on their own. Most devs collect them to uniquely identify devices. More nefarious use them for advertising
They are absolute wastes of land. You have acres of land tied up around here for 100+ year old graves that absolutely no one ever visits.
Grave sites are only for the living who just lost someone, which I understand. But, how often are they visited by those who have had someone pass?

Sales tax? BFD.

I mean, it is hard to run a business if you aren't running a profit and generating income.
but retaining the link to the link to IBTimes.
Worthless.

You do realize placing restrictions on what the government can't do, is part of that "not trusting government" thing, right?
Yes, but they have to justify their jobs somehow. How else than endless patent wars?

Perhaps you had a difficult time reading: There is a big difference between recording and making recommendations.

Apple, Samsung, et al all have huge legal departments. These legal departments have to do something to ensure that they get paid large sums of money.
What a better way than mutual patent infringement lawsuits that tie them up in court battles for years?
Job security, nothing more!
Yes, work only first your myopic view of what it should be.
Only an idiot would take what I wrote as no regulation. But hey, gotta work your agenda.
I assume US regulation is far too extreme to pursue such ventures. Gates can get more bang for his buck in a country where it doesn't take 20 years just to get approval to move forward.
I regularly work 16hr days - but it is for my own company.
Would I work 16 hour days for a $100,000 annual salary? Yeah, no. But, equity stakes, large bonuses, overtime - you have my attention.
I don't work because it is fun, I work to acquire money.
Yes, we are all slaves to society. You have no right to your labor, only what the government lets you keep.

Google has been partnering with Samsung and Asus for the Nexus brand. When will those partnerships come to and end as MOTO becomes fully Googled?
