They then stick my endorsement on their junk, and the customer gets ripped off by my friends.
There is a big difference between endorsing something and making a guarantee of fitness towards a certain task. Saying your friend's snake oil is great and I like it is perfectly fine but telling people it'll cure cancer will get you in a world of trouble.
The punishment should be based on an act, not on somebody's reaction to that act. Either an action 'ABC' is a crime or it is not - that should not depend on someone's reaction to 'ABC'.
The law typically takes both into account. To create a crime you typically have to have a Guilty mind (mens rea) and with that do a Guilty act (actus reus).
You callously shooting a gun up in the air resulting in someone's death is treated a lot different then intentionally shooting someone.
"The researchers also determined that some of the emissions from mobile phones occurred in frequencies employed by Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, which are increasingly vital for safe landings."
If anything, since the calls regularly occur on flights despite the ban, I would take that to be evidence that there is no risk.
Only so if there weren't incidents or problems related to interference. NASA released a report of problems encountered by passengers electronic devices and many of them relate to interference. You can view that here
The "free" digital TV box gimmick is not necessarily a scam.
That is all fine and good if they are up-front with it, however if they deliberately hide the $88 dollar charge things start heading toward sleaze. When they advertise something as free (or real cheap) and then start stacking on charges after the fact without the ability to opt out in my opinion and likely many others it becomes a scam.
Do you really think a handgun would be any use whatsoever against the armour-plated, tank driving army, should the US populace ever get riled up enough for open revolt?
Probably not, but they can be damn effective against the unarmored fuel and munitions trucks required to let that 65 ton hunk of metal do more then hold the ground down.
Really? I have friends who splash out $1000s on their hobbies, whether it is robots or R/C. This is a steal in comparison to some more expensive and consuming hobbies, especially considering the (underpowered but still excellent) FPGA. You can get similar hardware for far less or far better hardware for a bit less right now directly from Xilinx if that is your thing.
The SPARTAN 3 is a hobbyist FPGA. Cheap, and a lot of gates, but slow. A Virtex 4 would've been nicer:) The thing is already $1500, quadruple the cost of the most expensive part on the board. Yikes!
These aren't starving kids in Africa, for crying out loud. It's just a museum. How this is bashing? A person who it known to donate a lot of money to computing museums doesn't bail this one out. It says more about the urgency of the situation then some sort of Gates bash.
It is quite similar to a PIC. The metric of it being a processor or a micro is the level of integration of memory and peripherals on the device. I can't think of a single ARM7 on the market that doesn't have some program accessible memory and at least a few serial ports and GPIO pins.
A gun in your home is 22 times more likely [nih.gov] to kill a member of your family than an intruder. Did you read the same abstract I did? This one was neither limited to family members nor death. Furthermore they do not differentiate if the it is the owner of the home or their family who injured or killed someone with a gun. To back this point up they note they include two incidents of police officers using their gun in the line of duty, making them not the owner of the house. Of course that is sort of moot since that wasn't what he asked in the first place.
By what standard? What are your references? Links? Something? Or are you just going to pull assertions out of your ass and hope no one checks? If you're going to advocate a government takeover of the economy, at the very least take the time to back up your assertions of why this is such a good idea with proof. To my knowledge there really is only one group out there doing comparative research of this and their research seems to back him up: CPI Ranking.
Sweet. Now that they've got communication, lets get some health infrastructure and good food/water going over there.
That kind of stuff is what the Peace Corps does and the reason she was there in the first place. It's often though their work that many of these villages can start thinking about keeping in touch with others outside of the village rather worrying over rampid disease, crop failures, etc.
Not 10 years ago people were proclaiming the death knell for Microsoft because it missed the internet... then they bought "Internet Explorer" and... well you know how that turned out.
It turned out not that great for them, the part where they actually make money, the server market has played out miserably for them because of that mistake. Yes they do have a high install rate of the browser but that is only due to aggressive bundling of it in windows, something that you cannot do with a search engine.

But some would. One associate of his commented on the fact that he felt Push was depressed. Chronic pain can be associated with depression.
Pain will cause depression absolutely and without a doubt. However the depression is a natural reaction to an outside (of the mind) stimuli. The depression is a symptom of the pain. That doesn't make it a emotional problem.
Sometimes depression can be the cause
In his case it was a physical injury as reported in the article.
Regardless of which came first, if there is depression then there is an emotional problem.
The problem is that it would be an utterly useless diagnosis. The part that causes the symptoms is the problem, not the symptoms themselves. Treating his depression wouldn't change things much so long at the pain is a problem whereas treating the pain will most definitely positively impact the depression.
No low-voltage IC should ever "burst into flames", even in a poorly ventilated case. In fact, the poorer the ventilation, the fewer the flames.
Heck no anything electronic should burst into flames. There is so much fire retardant in modern lectronics they have trouble 'bursting into flames' even from outside sources let alone themselves. What I have seen is counterfeit electrolytic capacitors vent flame, but never any amount that could start a house fire. Then again you never really know what they put in the counterfeits.
They are of very limited clinical value. No hospital cardiology diagnosis these days would be based on auscultation.
Stethoscopes either traditional or digital really aren't designed to diagnose anything in a clinic setting at least not where more accurate tests are availible. But that doesn't mean that they don't save a heck of a lot of time determining what to test for. Not to mention you seem to ignore areas of medicine such gastroenterology, pulmonology and emergency medicine.

Carnegie Mellon University good enough for you?

Scam? As I recall they were a gag gift and were never meant to be taken seriously nor marketed as anything but a gag gift.
Exchange? Active Directory? Group policy? Try to find an open source replacement for those products?
How about a .45cal pistol and your foot? Has about the same 'user experience'.

From the article they charge them by connecting them to their car's battery.

The $200k is a court fine not civil damages.

Ye of little faith.
I wouldn't call chronic physical pain in the case of Singh an emotional problem.
The bill received Royal Assent on the 22nd of June making it law after that.
