I'm fairly certain that the legal problem only arises if there's technical issues. For example, you have no suit against a drug manufacturer unless you get a side effect that's not mentioned by the manufacturer, which is decidedly a technical issue.
Maybe it's because the rabbit is a tiny 2100 lb car with the mileage rated at absolutely optimal conditions and special tuning, while the CR-V is a 3,200 lb SUV rated at non-optimal conditions because of the changes in the EPA's rating system?
If I never took calculus, I wouldn't have known so definitively that I absolutely didn't want to take math, and I would have also been a few thousand ahead of where I am now.
There's a reason I identified that a designer doesn't need high level math skills. It's because there are definitively career paths and jobs that don't require it, which is a point often neglected when talking about all the people who have said "not everyone needs calculus 4" in the last few years.
You need math to program the software, but you really don't need it to design a sleek, effective UI. There's both people who need to know advanced mathematics, and people who don't.
That's still relatively basic math. I think the message is that people don't really need to understand calculus, but they do need to understand things like exponents, single variable equation solving, and the general concepts behind statistics (population vs sample, general best practices for conducting a study [and thus how to determine if a study is even remotely unbiased], margin of error).
Understanding of derivatives and integrals isn't needed for everyday life, but those basics can very well be used.
It's also much less bloated than WMP or iTunes, and it still plays nearly anything out of the box, which is why I use it. Startup time is important, and definitely a draw when it's less than 1/10th of the time of the other leading players.
It's not a matter us running out. If the supply of silicon is harder to mine and purify than the metal/insulator (whichever is harder) necessary for the new technology, then the new tech is an economic improvement.
The fact that it's easy to change the behaviors of a capitalist system in theory means the theory has a flawed assumption. That flawed assumption is that people care even 10% of the time.
However, when things do eventually get to the breaking point, consumers (aka voters) will change the system, given a democratic government is coupled with the capitalist economic system and that corporate interests don't override the people's interests. That's why capitalism in the US hasn't failed so far, and part of the reason many are worried about the future of the US.
even if it costs pennies now, the fact that it will cost a single penny later is definitely a step forward. That is especially true if the silicon supply is less abundant (not likely), or less easy to mine (possible), than the supply of the metals and insulators used here. That would mean a greater rise in the price of silicon over a given time frame than the price of the metal/insulator.
That's the thing about the corporate system that many people fail to realize. It's very easy to get a corporation to change what they're doing if there's a coordinated effort by consumers to choose not to buy from a certain manufacturer until practices are changed.
Thanks to this lovely attitude, multiple nations have started to retaliate against US citizens by charging them reciprocal rates and also treating foreigners like criminals.
Ahahaha! Show the Americans that their system is fucktarded by making your system just as fucktarded, and not showing them a proper example!
Maybe it's because threatening to take down a plane heading to a third world country isn't a very significant threat in the eyes of the TSA, and that nobody's going to take you fucking seriously to begin with if you say "I HAVE MERCURY HERE! DON'T MOVE! IT'LL EAT THROUGH THE CABIN IN A MATTER OF HOURS!".
Seriously, who the hell actually knows that mercury even does that?
Endorsing a candidate is fundamentally different from having the ability to run billions of dollars in ads, especially when the endorsement says "THE NEW YORK TIMES ENDORSES X CANDIDATE" and the ads say "Paid for by random mysterious group #50,982".

Countries who do not accept international laws have no business sending people outside their own borders, period.
As if every single country accepts every single "international law", except for the US.

I think it's that MIM is cheap, at least compared to doped silicon.
I find it remarkable that a South Korean company is outsourcing to North Korea, to be honest.

Good thing the DoJ filed that brief against patenting genes, eh?
Yeah, you're so mainstream.
Usually, it needs to be a certain size and see-through.

Profiling DOES work when the threat is a very specific group of people, like those the Israelis concern themselves with.
First off, you can put the people who work for a corporation in prison if they break the law.
Then, you still have a corporation sitting around, usually with the same culture that made it commit a crime.

The Saiga is the AK-47 variant that's used for civilians - semi automatic.
Damn, the tiger-bear sounds like one fierce mofo.
I don't think they're gonna let you compile it yourself...
