The vendors should be implementing secure voting systems to begin with. You can't just throw millions of dollars at a problem if you don't understand its origin. The thing is that they could spend less money and be more secure (eg using Linux and open source, encrypted and verifiable voting systems)
This person contacted her over a 'blog post' and posted to Twitter to find information on a CVE.
That is a script-kiddie, wannabe hacker teenager. A true spy, hell, even a halfway decent 'professional' knows where to find CVE descriptions and based on those descriptions, they can write their own exploits.
She got injured because she didn't speak up or refuse to work (which would've been protected in court), then she eventually got herself on workers comp (which takes 1 doctors visit), she earned money without needing to commute, she got medical expenses paid by ObamaCare. What is the problem exactly?
I agree with the breaking of monopolies but simply breaking companies because they are "too big" without quantifying eBay it means leads to abuse both by squashing competitors that are getting bigger and de facto government control/blackmail of the large players.
Same with false information - who gets to be the arbiter of true information then? What sorts of metrics do we have to measure truthfulness.
As bad as the invisible hand of the market works, it's a lot better than politicians telling us what is and isn't allowed.
You're talking about CO2 emissions (which is what, 400ppm of the earth's atmosphere?), not production of CO2 which is what you'd have to do if you want to transport it to Mars.
It's a lot, about 3kT/year gets lost. It's twice the amount of CO2 humans currently produce every year.
If you have technology that can produce a viable atmosphere on Mars, the question of where you need to live has become moot, you could pick any object in the habitable zone of any star and terraform it.
I don't think you understand how much CO2 but also Oxygen and Nitrogen is necessary to make Mars remotely resemble earth. Mars' atmosphere is being continuously stripped by solar wind too due to lack of magnetic fields.
Interesting though because you could, as part of the EU immigrate your wife in any of the countries and then thanks to freedom of movement bring them to the UK.
Hence why people want Brexit (and lots of people -at least in pub conversation- in Benelux likewise are thinking its a good idea for their countries to split) because local laws against immigration or against corporations aren't effective if you can just pick and choose the country which laws you want to have apply and then the rest is forced to accept you and your corporate practices.
I've immigrated my first wife into the EU (from the US) it was literally a conversation at the police station and a few forms.
They're not dropping it, simply stopping further internal development. OpenGL is pretty much legacy at this point, the most used implementation is ~10 years old and Khronos has moved on to Vulkan (basically OpenGL 5).
Khronos initially wanted money for Vulkan so Apple went off on their own and developed Metal, now Khronos is releasing their own Vulkan libraries for Mac and iOS (and made MoltenVK royalty-free, although not patent-free).
That's how every generation feels though, even through all the bubbles and crashes, you now are a lot better off than your parents or grandparents ten years before retirement. Unemployment goes up and down in a cycle of ~10-15 years and it's now down to 1960's levels again (which was the golden age according to some).
Our kids will pull through as well, stop coddling your teenager and send them off to work or school. Your parents had the same issue getting you a job and investing, the only 'problem' we have with this generation is that they don't "want" to work for peanuts at McDonalds because it's "beneath them". Stop housing your 30-yo and they will quickly find ways to feed and house themselves.
Apple made Metal because Vulkan wasn't being released and the work done on it became a big mess. Metal is a lot simpler to use and works directly on the hardware, there is no need for Vulkan if you have Metal. If Apple wants to conquer the world, they could release Metal implementations for Windows/Linux and quickly take over both DX and Vulkan, but Apple isn't in that game.
I think you vastly overestimate the state of AI and neuroscience. Current the best "AI" (statistical classifiers) allow a robot to be slightly more efficient in the sense that it is significantly slower but it doesn't require extensive reprogramming, just some (human or automated) feedback, eventually we'll make that process slightly faster but it still won't be as efficient as purpose-built robots.
But that was the case with the loom and the steam engine and the Ford Model T as well. You trade one form of energy for another, usually much less efficient but cheaper than before and then you have ever smarter humans figuring out how to optimize it. At no point in time did we trade net human jobs for net machine jobs and we've been pretty good at making a lot more humans since the 1800s, matter of fact, as many economies show, you end up trading low-wage, menial jobs for higher-wage, more fulfilling jobs eg in the service industry, healthcare, engineering etc.
What has happened in the past is that we basically shifted the value of workers up the scale, whereas before the job of being a scientist was reserved to a select group of priests and monks, practically paid for by what we now consider taxes (bureaucrats really) and anyone doing it outside those enclaves was not being paid to do it (todays ultra-rich hobbyists like Elon Musk), we've now made those into real jobs and we give them money to do it, as a society, we now put more value in those jobs. If 100% of the menial jobs on a world scale can be done by machines (which will take at least 50 more years), we can get 100% of people working as scientists and engineers, those are still jobs, we just shift what we value in society, a natural order with increased rewards for those that do better is engrained in nature, you can't change that, you can't reward organisms for not having expended energy without something going very wrong, very quickly.
When AI gets to the point we stop needing engineers, scientists and other humans, we as a species will have started our own extinction, if it is unnecessary for us to exist, history (which at that point nature itself would be encoded in the machines) tells us we will cease existing. We wouldn't be able to anthropologically distinguish the machines from naturally evolved humans, we'd be the Neanderthals of this world and then we would deserve to die.
Ever tried to use Vulkan? Even Carmack is calling for an API on top of the Vulkan API. Not sure who is moving to direct Vulkan but most likely it'll end up being a buggy mess (manual memory management in large projects?) and the same reason OpenGL "lost" to DX in the early 2000s.
Vietnam and Afghanistan especially were LOST by the US and not because some protests at home. The US military lost in a bunch of other places (eg Cuba) and history has proven that a larger, more powerful army can often be defeated by draining its resources (eg Russia-Japan and Russia-Germany to name a few).
If you have to defend yourself against hard physical measures, lethal force is the best defense, when it comes to survival you always want to be one step higher than your opponent.
No, these laws still apply in the US because police coverage is low or non-existent, citizens need to defend themselves. When cops take 30-45m to drive somewhere (or in the case of inner cities 3h-never). It's also legal in the US to arrest someone even if you're not a police until police show up.
Also because of the British that used to come in houses to steal stuff and quarter a brigade of soldiers in the name of the Crown.
Smacked hard? Lol: Charter was a big "donor" to Cuomo for both AG and Governor.
Cuomo received $116,957,462.05 from corporations in the last 10 years (he also has his PAC and "Friends of Cuomo" entities which I haven't even included). Top of the list: Charter/TWC.
Charter claims that they "did" fulfill those obligations. This is just saber-rattling by lawmakers for the November elections, once December rolls around, this will all be 'resolved'.
Charter has directly given $556,970.60 in the last two years to the same people that are complaining, most of it right before the Charter/TWC merger was approved.

Still better than 1984 where you live.

100g/s = 3kT/year. That's a block of dry ice approx. 2 km wide and high.
I don't think you understand how much CO2 but also Oxygen and Nitrogen is necessary to make Mars remotely resemble earth. Mars' atmosphere is being continuously stripped by solar wind too due to lack of magnetic fields.
Terraforming Mars is impossible.
We've edited genes on food for thousands of years. It's how we got so good a farming.

The question is why.

I agree that the world keeps changing but it's not changing how or more accurately who should govern us.
But even though 90% of farm labor is automated we don't have 90% unemployment which was my point.
If you want UBI, go work a job and/or invest what you earn. It's Universal, it's Basic and it's Income.
Automation/AI isn't going to change things, it hasn't in the past it won't in the future.

Many Chinese routers and Buffalo routers come pre-installed with supported versions of DD-WRT/OpenWRT. It's not that hard.
Also: Elections in November.
