Why not? Science proves all mainstream religion and religious leaders wrong. Science DOES get to comment on what you believe and whether or not it is wrong because otherwise it would have no point.
Really? Any coder able to find issues like this should be able to fix issues like this if they have the proper source code. Most issues are trivial to fix, substituting an unsafe call with a safe(r) call (eg. strcpy vs strncpy) is often enough to fix most issues.
Sure there will be some side cases where it is really hard or there may be better solutions than your patch (eg. I recently found a bug in the MariaDB optimizer which leads to bad data being returned) but then at least if the product on top of it (CiviCRM and Drupal in my case) is also open source, at least I can modify the query to fit my needs even though both Drupal and CiviCRM people say 'not our problem'.
But you're supporting said hierarchy by word and probably with money too (if you go to church and put money in the collection scales). By saying you're Catholic you're saying that the pope is your supreme leader and infallible, if you don't you are not a Catholic according to the definition in the Catechesis .
Then how can one say they are Catholic if they don't hold to the Catholic 'values'. You might as well be any other denomination that better aligns with your values or simply non-denominational.
In my city they went with the option of the company simply sending you an invoice for traffic and parking tickets. An administrative 'judge' can be appealed to but decides only in favor of the company. Since it's not a fine but an administrative fee, you can't get it in a regular court, but if you don't pay it you still lose your license.
They can brake except when they're behind you and you slam on the brakes. If everyone uses a reasonable speed and sufficient distance, you can drive 200m/s, doesn't matter, it's the slower people posing the danger
The thing is that a heavy wind or snow/rain frequently makes the things go haywire.
Look at those speed displays they have, there is one on a road I frequent and it will trigger under the above conditions. Also being relatively far away the thing will read random values around 40mph for a while until getting closer and any vehicle slightly to the right (slightly over the solid white line) will make the thing display the speed of the car up to a mile behind you (which is a fun game to make the thing display increasing numbers to a car slowing down)
What's relevant is whether or not a) your code uses the insecure portions of the language b) the security vulnerabilities are remotely exploitable c) you have not used a workaround
A lot of vulnerabilities within PHP are "if you have a PHP install on the same host that shares a common PHP instance" or "if you do these things in this particular way". I don't think there are a lot of vulnerabilities of the sense that it will drop down to a terminal if you send a special packet to the website.
Is that the same church that tortured Galileo, censored Copernicus, Bible translations and a host of other scientists and scientific discoveries? Or the same church that promoted anti-semitism until the 1960's? Or the same church that tells it's members to refuse birth control including the pill and the condom?
How is the tweet belittling anything? It's a classic joke that relies on misdirection, leading someone to a different answer than what they had thought it was.
On another note, why can't we mock religion? We mock everything else in this world including science, sex, children, old people,...
Because that's where your taxes will go. How much of your taxes go to people being the victim of identity theft? None. How many times does the FBI/NSA/CIA get involved when one of our citizens' bank account is emptied by hackers? Never.
But if a corporation like Sony gets hacked or the banks get stolen from (even though they can simply restore their databases back to reflect the original amounts afterwards) then there will be a large investigation and the POTUS will get involved etc etc.
From the articles (if they're true), they are treated like rock stars in their country and make more than most people in their country. It doesn't matter how much you make on a world-scale, if I move to Africa with my 'wealth' even though I wouldn't survive more than a few months in the West before being broke, I could probably live there for a decade without working.
What's the difference between security that a single hacker can't breach and a nation state can? Governments don't have magical (technical) powers (on the Internet) that others don't possess, they only have more time and resources than your average hacker but not necessarily more than your average crime syndicate. Also, large movements would be noticed. You can social engineer a few people as a single hacker, and you have to limit who you'll be calling in order not to be noticed, but a government would have to take the same route. Suddenly calling everyone in the office with social engineering attempts simply because you have the forces available is bound to get noticed (if you have proper security that is).
To go with your example of the depositors, even if you have an entire army at the ready, that doesn't mean small buildings and moving targets can't be defended by small forces and in many cases these small forces are way more effective, by the time you get a battalion to parse and execute an order a specialized force will already have come and gone (see Iraq and Vietnam)
I've been saying this from the get-go, Sony should not be coddled like they are the victim. This hack went on for months and probably for years they've been hiring the cheapest sysadmins overseas and buying 'solutions' from companies "well reviewed" in NetworkWorld (or whatever sponsored magazines middle management gets) to implement on their network that in the end didn't do squat.
Instead of being coddled, they should be fined for aiding and abetting and breaking privacy laws.
As the article suggests, during the industrial revolution there was not a true loss of employment opportunities. Employment shifted, weavers became machine technicians, horse buggy drivers became taxi drivers and car mechanics. Government regulations on mass production created an entire workforce artificially (inspectors and enforcement). In more recent times you have seen how farmers' children didn't remain farmers once industrial farms came about, they became agricultural and machine engineers, programmers etc.
Both the industrial agricultural growth in the West and reduced work week experiments In Europe caused a great deal of benefit. Farmers no longer had to work 16h days for 7 days/week and the children no longer had to help. All of a sudden there was a greater need for entertainment; the movie, music and video game industry exploded in the 90's (contrary to their own statements).
As AI grows (and it hasn't, AI is currently very rudimentary and task specific), the same effect will have to happen. People will be able to work less (30h/week, 20h/week) but people will have to understand the AI's and the ways it can fail which means more programmers, engineers and researchers. Also the entertainment industry will grow and as it grows, so do employment opportunities. People will always want to see people perform whether that is in sports, video games, music or movies, you will not be able to replace those for at least another century and at that point, current economies will have adapted or failed.
Some regulation is necessary but the regulation should be effective. The FDA and similar agencies are doing a relatively good job in most instances but they are corrupted to the core. So are the BBB, Consumer Reports and UL. Anywhere regulation or oversight is being paid for by the inspected is just a plain bad idea but few consumers would voluntarily pay a 'tax' on everything they buy to the BBB/UL/FDA.
He may be able to use contract law or the misappropriation/right of publicity laws but not copyright. You cannot copyright yourself or your likeness. Copyright is (or should be) for protecting the creative result of an artist.
None of your first arguments are true for most cabbies. I worry about getting robbed by the drivers just looking at some taxis in my town, the only thing that makes a taxi a taxi is a tag and a light on the roof. A rusted 1970s Chevy that looks like it could break down anytime and a murky looking non-English speaking guy trying to convince me to take a ride in his car?
And who do you complain to when your cabbie rips you off? The taxi company doesn't care. Hired a taxi once in Miami, prepaid days in advance and everything for a small group from the airport to a hotel. The guy didn't show up, called the company, they had 'forgotten' to schedule us in and it would take a few hours to get someone. They were upset that I didn't want to wait or pay them for the service, I had to take it up with my CC company to get my money back.
GPS these days has gotten to the point anyone can get you to point A to point B in the fastest, least amount of traffic way and anyone can check what you're doing. Uber basically allows for crowd-sourcing the reputation of individual cab drivers, not a large cab company with 100's of drivers where complaints get drowned out by "like us for a 10% discount on your next fare"
I always knew that salaried meant work whenever you want, as long as you get the job done, nobody cares. If you HAVE to be at your job 40h/week then you are an hourly employee and should be treated as such with overtime paid.
Comcast and TWC never competed. Neither does Verizon or AT&T. The 'big names' all have non-compete agreements. There is no reason for the merger other than to fuck over their customers by having more lobbying done to deny Netflix and others fair access.
In my town, Verizon was coming with FiOS. TWC and Verizon agreed not to compete here by splitting up some other markets and thus Verizon disappeared, leaving TWC the only choice. The local DSL provider has a 100-year agreement with the city over the government-built phone lines so they're only giving 2Mbps, TWC gives 10Mbps (without TV) at the low price of $70/month.

Business folding to the religious as usual. Hope we don't offend anyone by saying their religion and religious leaders are wrong about everything.
