That kind of system only works when you have a small set of items your are sorting, and the items have some sort of size difference. Neither is the case for an Amazon warehouse, where small lots of items are the norm, and the items can be a different as a teddy bear and a fishing pole or as similar as two models of phone that differ only by the UPC on their boxes.
I would imagine that hacking the SEC for this kind of info could net you more than 4.1 million. Seems like these hackers either lacked vision, or investigators didn't uncover their real game.
"Invading your whole life" is what a warrant is for. In this situation I am assuming a warrant has been issued to search the phone, thus we are only really discussing providing access.
I seriously doubt this is going to survive appeal. Providing your fingers and face, for fingerprints and lineups respectively, is already considered non-testimonial and well accepted. That providing these to unlock a phone is objectively the same as a passcode is irrelevant, a physical key such as a dongle would have the same purpose and it seems to be established that you could be compelled to hand it over to the police. In fact it seems in this case that the law is specifically unconcerned with the objective, and only concerned about the means.
This does invalidate an earlier comment I made concerning using 3D sculpting to fool face recognition, I guess the government might need to look into it now. If this leads to a ridiculous chain where you cannot be compelled to look at your phone to unlock it, but you can be compelled to have your face 3D scanned so that a copy can be made and used to unlock your phone, then I will be disappointed but not surprised.
As someone who has watched a significant amount of Fox News, I have to disagree. I think you are in error in conflating Fox News written content and Fox News television content. Their written content is generally not bad, but their televised content is nothing more than a systematic attempt to blur the line between editorial and news. I suggest you try watching Fox News and then compare it to reading Fox News and see if your would consider them as having the same journalistic standards.
I'm sure he realizes why the rebar is kept back from the surface, what he's saying is that there is no difference in the depth of rebar on a 6" thick wall vs. a 24" thick wall, in either case it will be placed as close to the surface as code allows. I think what you are saying is that if you were able to place rebar closer to the surface you could often go with a smaller member, since you generally have a surplus of compressive strength with the amount of concrete used. (or maybe you want to use beams with 2" webs?)
On a side note, it' good to see you are still around this accursed place.
I'm pretty sure it's related. There are big moves afoot both against anonymity and for greater control of social media postings, all with the best of intentions (as always). I've recently seen otherwise reasonable people suggesting that the government needs to act to end anonymous posting, and I find it equal parts baffling, repugnant, and frightening.
If they didn't want them to access the website they should have contacted them and made that clear. Otherwise it was simply a technical glitch that was resolved, that may or may not have been intentional.
Somewhat ashamed to know this, but the lack of punctuation is a tumblr convention - Usage indicates that the writer is "speaking" quickly or off-the-cuff, and is frequently used in situations where someone is mocking another's actions or intent. It's meant to imitate a certain speech pattern where one speaks quickly at a consistent tempo.
I feel like this significantly informs the theories of how the rings formed. If they are being lost this quickly, it would seem to disprove theories that have them being formed in the early solar system, and suggest a more recent cause.
It is about 50/50. To make cement, you generally start with calcium carbonate, and decompose it into calcium oxide and CO2 at a high temperature. So CO2 is produced by both the process itself, and by the energy use required to achieve and maintain that temperature.
It is far from a given that cement production has to release as much CO2 as it does now. I am in the building world, I will assure you nobody is giving up concrete, but there is a lot of research going into reducing the carbon footprint of cement, along with increasing its strength and decreasing its weight. Most concrete in this world is used to support other concrete, affordably reducing weight would go a long way to reducing demand.
Considering that humans could quite possibly be fooled by a 3D printed head in similar conditions, I'm actually very impressed they weren't all cracked. I also think this is an edge case scenario- Your phone is taken by someone who has the data, resources, and the will to make a 3D model of your head just to open it. Usually people would point to the government as a possible culprit here, but the government doesn't need to go to these lengths, they can use your actual face.
The author mentions manufacturing errors as a possible source, but I think his question is an error in what, and if it's an error on silicon, why would it only show up after months of operation? Some people have more curiosity about the things they use, and want more of an explanation than "oh sometimes they just fail."
The presence of deep bacteria was known, but I seriously doubt there were any good biomass estimates for them, since estimations for above ground biomass were pretty lackluster up until about 15 years ago.
This was my thought exactly. Of course the ones with less-than-perfect grades did as well or better, since they obviously were chosen based on some other characteristic that made them more attractive than their lackluster academic performance would otherwise indicate.
The responses to this comment puzzle me. Somehow the idea that a woman would be interested in an improved tech product is interpreted as proof she is shallow, while men doing the exact same thing, incidentally the raison d’être of this site, is not interpreted the same way.
Death? I can see infertility, but how is death a possibility? Is it an allergic reaction to the gel itself, and if so why does it take so long? If you have any more info please share, sounds like a serious issue.
Yes, but the gun is good. The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with the plauge of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of the Brutals.
There was something they were touting a few years back that was a gel-like substance injected into the vas deferens, that was supposed to be non-hormonal and completely reversible. Where has that gone?

Here's a better article, that doesn't prattle about Nazis: http://www.astronomy.com/news/...

Interesting. I myself circle strafe through museums so I can concentrate on the exhibits while I move.
The presence of deep bacteria was known, but I seriously doubt there were any good biomass estimates for them, since estimations for above ground biomass were pretty lackluster up until about 15 years ago.
So I see they already stopped buying chairs.
