You are incorrect. You will increasingly be incorrect. Geo-location services based upon IP are available. However, they are not always accurate. For instance, ISPs hand out IPs as assigned to their network operations center. Your proper location is lost at the first NAT you encounter. For a time I lived in the back of beyond rural Wisconsin. My only choice for internet was a satellite link via Hughes. Their NOC was located in Atlanta IIRC and the IP address I was assigned cause me to have content tailored for that geographic area. In the present there exists an increasing lack of IPv4 addresses that I suspect will force a redistribution of unused addresses in non-traditional ways as well as increasing layers of NATs.
I'm not quite sure where the F-35 comes into this in the first place. I assume either ignorance or baiting. From what I can tell, they don't share the same roles. Embraer cites the AT-6 as the competition.
I think you forgot the 40+ demographic running things part. Political action is only useful if the people whom hold proper ideas also represent the majority and are not otherwise disenfranchised. Without the 40+ folks gone, neither qualification stands much of a chance.
You want radical and "messy"? Eliminate healthcare. Youth want a big, bright, collective future. Older generations like the status quo, like to believe the world is their's to play like an RTS. Let the old, infirm generations perish and you'll eliminate most of the worlds despots and imperialists.
Don't worry, they'll make sure the money they take from the artists to stymie this flagrant disregard for artists' right to fair compensation will not be in vain.
Yet ultimately management are responsible for delegating to HR, yes? Regardless, it's not normal practice for HR to be the final decision on hires. Their job is to forward candidates whom have passed the first weed out.
Not everyone is a web monkey, err excuse me, "ninja." There's still a few of us out there that have to put together something more than ad containers or online catalogs. It is frustrating to me that the conversation always uses them as the representatives for the profession. The detritus of the software development profession tend to settle here. Low barriers to entry I suppose... Either way it skews perceptions and underserves the rest of us.
I partially agree with your assertion of raising the barriers to entry, but I disagree with the scope and strategy. To begin with not every piece of software holds the same requirements. Security and quality requirements vary greatly. What is essential to one piece of software is unimportant to another. As such a one size fits all standard for software developers would either cripple the profession by excluding all but the best, brightest, and most passionate; or, it would leave the doors wide open on software that holds these requirements as critical.
Most importantly though, your interpretation of the cause of low quality software is just plain incorrect. The cause and responsibility lies first and foremost with management not the individual developer. Management dictates the requirements. Management dictates the schedules. Management staffs the project. Management ensures the outcomes. If a proper design requires five weeks and management provides five days, there's little the engineer can do but make the best effort they can with the resources given. If it's Thursday and the QA guys claim they need two more weeks to validate the system yet management says it's shipping Monday morning there's little they can do but make their best effort with the resources given. If an engineer reports a security flaw and management tell him to ignore it because it'll cost too much to fix, whose fault is it when customer account information ends up on a torrent?
Yes, lousy developers exists, but its management that puts these people on projects they're unqualified to work on. Management provides the resources for a given project. If a project is weakly described, improperly staffed, and/or under funded the outcome is predictable, assured, and has little to due with the people behind the keyboard burnt out, stressed and frustrated as they log 60+ hour work weeks.
An interesting point but hopefully the answer isn't to put it all "under the plow" for the sake of poachers. To my understanding, young growth forests aren't as environmentally productive in some respects as compared to old growth. There are also costs related to harvesting that I would guess exceed that of a bamboo farm.
Isn't that how it normally works. Scientists collect data, make projections, etc.. Politicians and pundits then interpret these studies in a manner compatible with their views.
That said, the reality is that trees are a rather handy thing to have around. That we are losing them for whatever cause is a troubling thing and needs to be paid attention to.
Not sure about the seashells, however I wonder if there might not be benefit in using say bamboo instead of traditional trees for paper products such as bumwad. It grows substantially faster and by my reckoning would translate into a smaller footprint required to produce.
While what you say is largely true. What isn't accounted for in it, is that the land originally was wild and presumably contained a natural ecosystem with old-growth trees, etc.. I don't know if that makes a difference or not. Given that natural systems evolved to get along with one another and these "farms" are not natural it might be nice to know if the scale pans are being made imbalanced and what the consequences are.
That isn't necessarily as big of a problem as you might initially think. They can play numbers games, so can you. Most people do not require 50Mbit/s+ data rates if their highest usage involves streaming Netflix. Drop to a cheaper data rate and add the $30 unlimited data.
Perhaps, but probably not that far removed from an accurate account. It's become fairly well accepted that the CIA played a significant part in the coup.
If the A-10 is so great I'm confused as to why they cannot upgrade the hardware like they've continually done with the F15, F18, etc. etc. to evolve its capabilities retire the Harrier and deploy Apaches in their place.
Deliberate attacks generally target insurance data. You can't make much off of knowing someone got a booboo, but insurance fraud is a gold mine.
That isn't to say that ambient malware isn't finding its way everywhere else. The reality is that modalities (CTs, MRIs, etc.), are rarely patched, many are running ancient versions of Windows. Re-imaging systems--sometimes near daily at some facilities--is the normal strategy for addressing malware. Lack of support from the manufacturer being principally to blame. Most facilities have a strong concern for security but there's often an absence of adequately qualified IT staff to address the matter elsewhere in the facility.

The tests were done on a dyno--kind of like a treadmill for cars. The software looks for real world inputs.
If the calorie companies can self-certify why not the auto-industry?
That's why Norway is one of Tesla's best markets.
Elon and his gang will host a big party for them when they arrive.
This is called the "canned pork" strategy. It has the best chance of being funded by Congress.

Actually it's Congress that doesn't want to buy it. RTFS
That's a Marine *cough* requirement.

You forget automobiles, that is, most Indians and Chinese do not operate them. Poop and other bio-mass is carbon neutral.

When'd they bother getting any non-PPV content worth watching? I'll stick to Netflix and Crunchyroll thanks.
