I think the proper way to frame the discussion is for a given crypto-currency is to ask: Is this one that has a lottery ticket's odds of paying off in the future, or one that has the same value as one where they already drew the numbers and found no match?
Currencies may exist for each, but like lottery tickets a heck of a lot more have been printed that are now in the later category.
The Soviet Union is a rather large testing ground. They tried variations of 5 and 6 that worked poorly in an attempt to avoid using 7, which they viewed as a number that made it too easy for people to hold on to religion. While there are certainly an infinite number of variations one could try, its not like France (in the reference I cited) or the Soviets were too small a sample size to pretend that we have no evidence of relevance that 7 isn't just an arbitrary number and any other would work fine.
Regarding a non-7 day week, this has been tried before and didn't work. See for example www.mdpi.com/2075-4698/3/4/399/pdf
Sometimes a long-followed social construct has survived because it works well for us animals, and if that makes it harder for programming computers that is a reasonable cost.
Then don't count empty flights as valid flights. That would put an end to that habit.
No it would just lead to as many people being paid to ride along as necessary, further increasing the waste (i.e. extra fuel cost). The cost of holding on the slot will ultimately be covered by the sale of the slot to another airline (or the money saved by not needing to buy the slot from another airline when you need the slot for a directly profitable flight.
I did some looking around to try to find one, looks like most of the public-facing info has been replaced by the spring projects. The best way to get info was to have been there at Senior Design Day to see the unit in action and talked to the team, which I admit does little good now. If you go to the photo gallery archive at https://research.ece.ncsu.edu/... click on the Fall 2017 gallery, you can see a picture about 32 that has much of their poster, but not the demonstration unit.
You might be able to get more information by contacting the ECE department, they might still have project details. From my recollection, they trained Watson to do analysis of images captured by a phone that was placed on top of the sorter looking down, and a micro-controller to for the motor control side of things based on the classification that came back (to switch to the proper bin location then push the item in)
An NCSU ECE Senior Design team last year built a recycling sorter that used image recognition to put items in appropriate bins. Since a small team of students can build a demonstration unit for a class project, it seems to me commercial scale is simply a matter of some company putting in the effort to scale up, mostly on the mechanical end, and increase the size of the training database.
The blurb you quote as saying that it's not to much of a leap to _imagine_ it's true elsewhere. I'd say it is indeed likely that it doesn't require much imagination to think that might be possible. Being able to imagine it, and stating that it is true, are two very different statements:). I can imagine many things that are much less likely, but which I don't have enough evidence to make a truth statement about. I don't think the blurb and your view are as much in disagreement as your statement implies.
When one is sending out the sort of unfiltered stuff on Twitter that Trump does, what would be the point of securing a phone that he using expressly for that purpose? He is TRYING to broadcast whatever information he puts in the phone to everyone willing to listen. Aside from avoiding someone hijacking the twitter feed to send stuff and make it look like it is from him, there isn't any security threat worse than the already intended use of the phone.
The summary clearly states that this phone is only for twitter and reading the news.
Actually, plenty of sit-down restaurants have something like this. You can take the slow approach of waiting for a table, or go to the bar and order food there. If you are alone or in a hurry the bar works well. If you are with a group and want to sit together instead of getting scattered (or at least strung out in a line where it is harder to talk), you wait. I seen places where the bar menu is the same, and other places where it is different.
All that said, I agree that the fact that most places you have choices of lots of restaurants whose fate is determined by a open market makes all the difference in whether regulation is appropriate. The government (at various levels) has helped to get things into a condition where most people have little choice of internet providers, so there should be rules that prevent these monopolies from abusing their positions.
You can add up to 50,000 songs to Google Play Music from your personal music collection using Google Play Music for Chrome or Music Manager (up to 300MB per song). Once you've added your music, you can listen to it through the Google Play Music app and on your computer.
I have my music uploaded to Google Play, has worked well for me.
I also have a NAS at my house with everything on it, which both lets me stream at home without using bandwidth getting it from the cloud. It also means if Google pulls an Amazon here, I still have everything backed up (both on the NAS and my backups of the NAS).
I've always been annoyed by the non-confirmation principle in 1-click. This is one of those patents I've been glad somebody got because figuring how to turn it off for one vendor is infinitely preferable to figuring out how to turn it off for every vendor.
If you'd bothered to read the link, you'd have noticed that the patent office accepted calling it "Transparent Aluminum" in multiple patents. Given that the topic involves what the Patent Office will accept, please save your pejoratives for yourself and them.

My guess would be because it keeps them in the city. The organizers might point out that if you export them to a random suburb or rural area (with enough available space for those homes and spread them out decently), they no longer have available the city's transportation and logistics infrastructure. Furthermore, though they might not point this one out, homeless folks are probably not trusted to take proper care of a $250K home- the long term maintenance for 100 such homes to keep them in decent shape may be much higher than the single building maintenance cost. Finally, and they certainly won't point this one out, it keeps all the homeless people you don't trust in one place, rather than annoying the suburbanites and going to the suburban school districts.
This would be a bad thing because this sets the precedent of the Feds dictating what rights states have to make their own laws. What next? Would Trump then start revoking all the recent laws laws governing recreational and medical marijuana?
I am come down on the state rights side of issues. Tesla selling cars anywhere but their home state pretty clearly falls under Interstate Commerce though- it's not a corner case of interstate commerce it's right in the center of the sort of thing the Federal Govt was given the power to make rules regarding. The Feds are definately allowed to stomp on attempts by states to restrict interstate commerce.

Personally I think Tesla has been clueless at selling vehicles.
As long as Tesla has a backlog, it seems to me that their marketing is doing just fine relative to their production capacity.

You use your unlock code, just like the guy on stage had to do when it didn't unlock for him during the big presentation.
And do you believe that every merchant will implement easy cancellation?

Doesn't work. You're just giving your fingerprints to the guy you don't even see with a camera 3 meters behind your back.
With the bird, you're only giving them 1 fingerprint, and not the one most people check.
