Wow, please return to the communist shithole you crawled out of and leave the American entrepreneurial spirit alone. Just because you're an asshat who can't be bothered to find something that society needs from you that it can't get from a majority of the population you think no one can be worth that? You're a blight on the world.
That's how I learned to program. or...maybe it's how I learned not to...elementary school on a commodore 64, friend showed me some basic...BASIC and I was hooked. Found out the school library had several books on basic programming with many listings ranging from a simple program to guess the number you're thinking all the way to a space invaders clone. The guess the number one was easy to transcribe and even improve in my simple understanding with it working very well. The longer programs...well...for whatever reason you couldn't check that type of book out for more than three days at a time and somehow despite being me being best friends with one of the most brilliant people at the school (and probably in the United States now since he's a pediatric neurosurgeon), we both somehow came to the conclusion that transcribing the listings onto paper was how to solve that problem. But we did it. Around 2000 lines on graph paper (hey had to make sure it was clear what we wrote down). Then we tag teamed entering the program line by line. And triumphantly reached the end in two recesses and a lunch break....only to type "RUN" and have an indecipherable error message and no method known to us how to debug it. It wasn't till junior high that I got access to computers where we could actually save progress and start again later. Whew...how did I ever keep interest...I have no idea...
I kept looking for the ample examples of where font could be a matter of life and death. Found none. Annoyed, but adblocking on so asshat got nothing from me.
The hillary/donald paragraphs were from the article. The GP's actual post was the subject line "Busted" and the message "Political Hackery". This is the GP saying the "article" author's bias was showing.
Alas, that is a battery that would be forever dead as the law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created, and there is absolutely no substance (energy) to any of their faux outrage. An argument with a mass of zero can perhaps be observed in a super-excited state but will still have a potential + kinetic energy of zero.
Since most of this particular branch of this discussion is reasonable statements made in an attempt to garner understanding, I think it's safe to say this here that we just don't know. Understanding climate-level facts from such limited data is ultimately going to always be a guess. Heck even if we were capturing all the known variables 100% over a period 10 years we really wouldn't even know if we're still missing a significant amount of data because of unknown variables. That's why all the climate chicken littles get such a negative response. They try to present things as facts and proofs that they have a 0.001% degree of certainty. Maybe they will end up being right, but arm flailing won't help. Neither will impugning the character of people who point out how paper thin their conclusions are.
Every single internet provider I've ever had has had multiple tiers of connection. Primarily this affected bandwidth, but there are sometimes other "value adds" that I often make no use of in the higher tiers. With Charter I'm in the middle. There's a Gbps connection above my tier and a still double digit Mbps connection as a basic tier below mine. I'm on the 100Mbps middle tier.
Might wanna check on your lord and savior bernie sanders' own record in the big corp money. His wife is being investigated for alleged bank fraud related to funding for a college she ran. Not small time either. And if you think he wasn't involved or had no knowledge of this, nor had any motivation for his platform to go a certain way (FREE COLLEGE FOR ALL). Would it really be a surprise that the guy spouting off free this and free that to tantalize his followers was doing so for personal gain and not the BS altruism that they tried to portray?
News flash, compared to China and India, the pollution of the United States is completely irrelevant. We could be a zero emission country and it wouldn't move the meter on global pollution levels because of just how much those two countries pollute. Why hurt our economy entering into treaties and legislating changes outside of normal market forces? Eventually we will reach many of the goals the various treaties and EPA guidelines have stated. But it's like telling your roommate to turn his headphone volume down when your neighbors on both sides are having blow out parties blasting music that is cracking the walls.
How do you compare to come up with "doing pretty well"? They have complete shit for air. And they have 1.3 billion people contributing to it. U.S. had a population of 5 - 10 million at the height of the industrial revolution. If China and India got down to United States levels of pollution the world would be exponentially better than any small dent changes to the United States pollution level could make. United States isn't turning away from renewable energy or cleaning up environmental impact, the "turning away" is merely not forcing aggressive changes through laws and treaties that put undue burden on our relatively clean industry.
If you choose to ignore what 3.5 million square miles to cover actually means sure. It means not everyone is going to get it at the same time. You, however, have made an assertion with no supporting facts. Comcast having a stupid 10 year exclusive franchise doesn't help. 10 year right to suck agreement is what it is.
Having money that could potentially be used on something isn't analogous to just magically being able to do it. Yes politics play some in it. People who are served by shitting old telephone wire are required by law to be able to keep that shitty old telephone wire. It takes more than just money. It would take a massive construction effort that, if done all at once, would completely cripple travel across the united states. We have improved internet access and speed significantly over the last decade. Not saying it can't be better, but it will be. Imagine if South Korea suddenly had to switch from fiber to some random new standard. They would be in a similar issue as the US having to replace all its copper/coax. Whether done by tax dollars or private investment, it's going to take a ton of money and time to get the entire United States up to the standards of our more regional hot spots.
What ranking do you refer to? South Korea which is definitely the leader in broadband per capita, has a country 39,000 square miles to cover. United States, on the other hand, has nearly 100 times that area. South Korea has 18 million broadband subscribers for about 37% coverage which I realize is not quite an accurate percentage given families etc.. that share internet connection. United States has 28%...except that's for a population 6 times larger. United States has infrastructure in place that is decades older than anything South Korea uses. Having to use/make way for existing infrastructure absolutely does make things take longer to improve. And doing it over an extremely geographically dispersed population makes it that much harder. That also makes it harder for companies to compete, though local franchises also make that less competitive. Since broadband was a truly consumer thing in my region of the U.S. I've had the option of DSL and Cable internet. Satellite came a bit later but still an option. DSL and Cable internet definitely compete here and despite Cable now getting ready to deploy 1Gbps connections here you can still get a VERY fast connection for less than $30 a month. Not every house has that available to them in the U.S. yet, but given the differences between the peanut sized South Korean and the elephant sized U.S., I don't think we're as far behind as you say.
If I give my password to my work laptop to someone, I get fired. It's in my employee agreement. I've worked at companies where there are laws protecting access to patient data that would be on my laptop any time I traveled. How do they deal with that kind of situation?
No...they can arrest someone and immediately release them if they think they aren't a risk. While it varies by state/country, it is common that you can be held for up to 24 hours on suspicion of a crime. Then based on the seriousness of the offense you may be held longer. For example, if someone is arrested for possession of marijuana, they likely will be allowed to walk, whereas if they are arrested for murder they likely will not. So yes, how they handle you between arrest and charges is very much dependent on what you did and what you are likely to do.
Being held in custody on suspicion of a crime or when charged with a crime are both legal parts of due process already. This app is just meant to add an automated analysis of data to help make the decision on whether to keep them in custody the legal amount of time or release them early.
All divisions of the federal government push to spend more. Their goal, unfortunately, is to at least maintain but preferably grow each year to increase their power and get more money. While it would need to be done with care, I would say the military budget should also be cut. For instance, while it was super cool to see 57 tomahawk missiles fired off to destroy that airbase in Syria, it wasn't really needed. Disengage as the primary contributor in so many fronts...call on our debtor nations to put in more....

Time to diversify, but yeah that sucks.
Because they both have genders, it must be gender-related!
Ha! This was the one that we spent hours on end transcribing from: http://www.atariarchives.org/c...

No, just this hack named Ben Hersh.

Are you referring to the zero-rating that was banned in India last year?

That is likely because you haven't actually learned what legal treason actually is.
