I didn't say its the same, as a matter of fact racing is extremely demanding, and having driven with racers, I know their reaction times are completely different than the average driver. However riding with a race car driver is also completely different on normal roads, they will use one hand while driving, pop a tape in the tape player, while during a turn, all the while talking to you about normal life and just barely looking at the road. What they are doing is extremely easy to them. And the only difference between them and the average driver is experience, and reflexes. Both of those can be taught. Rather than rule out every little thing that can distract a normal driver, change the requirements of the normal driver to the point where they can handle those situations. Otherwise you will have to rule out every load bang, every car radio, every girl with a tight top, every overly large bump, deer, and other things too numerous to mention. Instead make the person able to handle those situations or he/she does not get a license.
You do know that most major racing groups use radios to communicate to their drivers? That Rally car racing drivers are constantly talking to their navigators. If it is that much of a performance drop they would not be using them. Cell phones are no different than that. The problem is training and education and not gadgets. Right now I do not know of one single state requiring simulated driving tests, just the "get in and parallel park" stuff. Put them in a sim, make them stop for a deer, have pedestrians walk out in front of them, have a driver cut them off while texting. Have them hit black ice, have a person in the back yell at them, and have them make a cell phone call while on a turn. In a sim they wont do any damage and they will learn how to handle it. Right now we hand out a license to any person that knows alcohol limits and can park a car. Get them better trained.
From what I have seen as far as computing the more applications made available and the more a system is made to have more applications available the poorer the stability of the system. That does not mean you can't lock it down, but that the system itself is made to be more compatible as time goes down and degrades the stability. Iphone has one of the most locked down application systems (every application needs to be approved by apple) but still crashes all the time. Even linux as time goes on get more unstable as more patches are made as well as its design is changed to add more packages. All I am saying is that as your windows 7 phone gets more applications the complexity of the system will build and become more unstable. Its quite simply the KISS rule.
Most people don't like when people tell them they made a mistake. They will try to find a scapegoat and it will be you. But if you wanted to push it. I have had the most success when pressed with problems similar to this to go to a high up person. If the normal channels just don't work find the email of the highest person there and send it to them. A vice president, ceo, cio, who ever you can find and send it. They will take notice. Just make sure you protect yourself first.
Groupon has limits it can put on the amount sold, the owner should have thought about max capacity and sold under it. I'm also sure she totaled into the loss is the amount she did not make up in normal sales. Also most Groupons are good for a year, that is a long time to be able to make cupcakes. She should have put in a quota system on how many groupons she would book in one week and broke up the rest across the year. 200 cupcakes a week does not sound all that bad. Also if you put them off a bit people have a tendency to forget they have a groupon or lose it.
Isn't that number kind of biased? I mean the police are going to be able to track down the ones that have records the fastest, right? I mean trying to track down a person that has never been through the legal system vs. the one who has prints on file, pictures and dna. Its the crook who they have the home address for, who police know by their first name, and they have a picture of, that's going to get picked up first, right?
I think you had "Maple flavored syrup". That was pretty common and most of the time "flavored" was off to the side or made to not stand out. As for me, pure maple syrup all the way.
I really don't understand your argument. You say we have reached the limit of physics and that there is no need to go. I say we have the tech now and there is no need to go. So what exactly is your argument? We both agree that the reason there is no development of space travel is the limit of financial need to go. Soon as that limit is passed travel will increase. Soon as the cost of x is worth more here than the cost of getting x in space we will go. As far as blind faith. Spacex has a Falcon Heavy that lifts for 125 million a launch 1/4 the price of any NASA equivalent. That is without mass production. In 1909 cars cost 3000 dollars to make (about 73,000 today). After Ford was done they cost $290 (3200 today). Its not faith its looking at what has happened and seeing a future outcome.
My statement was that there is not a need for transport so no boon like we had in aviation. As soon as there is a need the boon will follow. It seems you are saying we have hit the limit on the capabilities of physics for cheap transport out of our gravity well. I would say we have everything we need right now to do it. We just have no need to do it. There is no spice and silk on the moon that we need to sail our ships around the world too. And there is no mob of people wanting to go from Europe to North America. So technology innovation in the area is stifled because there is no need. There is a demand for fast graphics, there is a demand for better drugs and there is a demand for smaller, faster processors. We have those technologies progressing faster than we ever comprehended in the 60's. What we can store on a thumb drive would blow away anything they thought possible when Asimov and Heinlein were writing Scifi. When we have a real need for flights to Mars, the asteroid belt, or Jupiter we will make the tech we need to get there and we will do it quickly.
There was a huge need for aviation. Moving people from part of a country or continent to another. There is no huge need to move tons of people to one part of space to another. When there is there will be money to make that happen. With no need no technology.
And that did not get corrected till the North decided that they needed the vast amounts of money in the South. And that one of the ways to get the man power for the army was to get rid of slaves. Of course it had the added bonus that it removed the main labor force from the south as well. Your fundamental change was the Government running out of money and its loses after the failed Mormon war.
I don't know about Homeplug specifically. But most network over powerline inhome systems network signals will not go through the transformer on the pole. He would have to have access to power after the pole.
Just charge for the advertising at the venue. The advertising revenue pays for the equipment and the free service draws the people in to see the advertising.
Pennsylvania is a two party consent state. They would need consent from both parties to be able to record anything. So yes they were doing something illegal they broke wiretap laws.

Stability of that system is probably going to be proportional to the amount of apps available. Just saying.

The ISS is behind the Van Allen Belt and protected from a large amount of cosmic radiation by it.
Well in the U.K. I guess yes you do attempt to ban all pointy knives. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/4581871.stm
Some people listen to it while driving instead of watching as well.

I'm sure her funding starved school used the paper fund on those brand new Ipads they like to give out.

So your new to slashdot?

Obviously you have never picked berries. They are just way to yummy to let anyone near you.

Needed no, Got yes.

True, I personally like all my propaganda on a Federal level.
