Doesn't this have the opposite effect?
If lots of companies decide to make it their policy not to discriminate based on genetics, then there will be no need for legislation.
John Percival Hackworth is a nanotech engineer on the rise when he steals a copy of "A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer" for his daughter Fiona. The primer is actually a super computer built with nanotechnology that was designed to educate Lord Finkle-McGraw's daughter and to teach her how to think for herself in the stifling neo-Victorian society. But Hackworth loses the primer before he can give it to Fiona, and now the "book" has fallen into the hands of young Nell, an underprivileged girl whose life is about to change.
Not necessarily.
For example... I qualify with my CS degree because I have taken two semesters of Physics and have a math minor.
Check the patent bar reqs.
OK I think I understand what you are saying, and the pic on wikipedia helped...
It is only on the return trip that the traveling twin "jumps" inertial frames.
But what would it look like on the trip back?
Would the traveling twin see the other twin on earth aging more quickly?
I dont understand how the OP can be correct about both seeing time slow on the way out AND the way back.
I understand the twin's paradox... I dont see how what I said contradicts it.
the twin's paradox basically agrees with what I said.
"This is why pseudo-time travel (one way into the future) is possible with near-light speed travel."
"The Twin paradox is a thought experiment in special relativity. Of two twin brothers one undertakes a long space journey with a very high-speed rocket at almost the speed of light, while the other remains on Earth. When the traveler finally returns to Earth, it is observed that he is younger than the twin who stayed put."
This is what I meant by one-way time travel.
A cryo-suspension would have the same affect.

There is a link to your site (http://simplyted.blogspot.com/2004/10/your-inkjet -printer-as-replicator.html)
This made my head explode

So how about you dont press F12 or just change the hotkey setting to null in preferences.
wow that was great. thanks.
Click on the Dashboard icon and drag it off of the dock. If you don't run dashboard no widgets will be executed.
I dont have time to watch the full 20-minutes of this program... do you happen to know approximately when this was said?
My thoughts exactly... that is not an image of what a person would see with the implant
I cant find the graphics on the site showing what the patient sees. Can you post a link?
Skype has encryption!
Are you kidding? I deal with real computers and real "computer people" all day. Who wants to watch that on Tv?
What exactly is Math culture?
Can they run Tiger? //you thought i was going to say Linux didn't you.

Nevermind lol I finally get it. Thanks for the explanation

Actually I *think* that you have it wrong.
Ok, lets say there is a videocamera inside a spaceship filming the crew. There is also a videocamera back on earth filming.
The people in the spaceship are watching the broadcast from Earth, and the people on Earth are watching the broadcast from the spaceship.
As the Spaceship's speed approaches that of light, the people on earth will see that time has almost frozen on the spaceship.
However, for the people on the spaceship it will look like 100s or 1000s of years are going by in a matter of seconds on earth.
This is why pseudo-time travel (one way into the future) is possible with near-light speed travel.
