First, the temperature records are adjusted to somehow account for errors or influences. This leaves me suspicious.
Then the siting of recording stations in the US seems to risk both urban heat island effects as well as a bias to urban locations, both as sprawl engulfed older stations, and as rural stations have fallen into disrepair or been lost.
But the intentional manipulation of data, especially satellite data, leaves me questioning results.
If you're as aware as you seem to claim, you know what I'm referring to.
The debate over whether your right to own a gun is infringed by the government's unreasonable restrictions on sales is yet to be had, because the government hasn't yet quite invoked unreasonable restrictions on sales.
But tracking gun owners in states where gun registration is not required is, de facto, registration. And if they are asking to do this to spot cross-border smugglers, then perhaps some restrictions on how the data is used, and how long it is retained.
And that, my friends, is pointless. The government will ignore and violate any such restrictions. They just will, either by 'legalizing' it under intelligence law, or running it as a covert program, and we will not know unless someone blows the whistle, and then only if they survive.
We need to regain control, or at least that which we had some time ago.
Which was the end of the S/38-S/36-S/34-S/32, stated with a similar instruction set to the System/3, possibly actually the first 'personal computer' despite the physical size. The System/3 Mod 6 was intended for interactive mode, promoted BASIC as the programming language of choice despite true lack of support from IBM, and even had a cassette drive for updates/diagnostics. See a picture of the CE panel almost makes me shed a tear.
System/i is an AS/400 rebrand, folllowing the eServer rebrand. My brother thinks the S/32 on to current iSeries machines are just the best thing ever for their intended markets and is the best valueout there, but even he would rather IBM tore the badges off and spend more time on QA for the OS updates. He doesn't even care what the chips are inside, so long as it keeps up.
I'm betting the IMF is actually data storage/retrieval. The business logic is elsewhere.
And it cannot be impossible to slip in a modern system, in parallel, to read/write the data, be validated, and move on. Then build the logical systems around it.
But there is a reason why so many federal government systems are allowed to persist well beyond their end of life. Figure that out, and you will then understand what it will take to modernize.
Those drives were essentially identical to the drives for the DisplayWriter. Even if a tech got lazy with their feeler gauge and hosed the head alignment you could take a bit of time with a scope and dial in a drive to those badly written floppies. Drives were battleship-quality, indestructible. I replaced a few heads for wear, then just bought used off eBay. I think I last serviced a DisplayWriter system around 1999.
DisplayWiters had MS-DOS 2.11 (and maybe 2.2x) available, ran a few apps such as a time & billing app for lawyers, and were essentially IBM PCs built with 8086 processors, just Office Systems style construction. Durable. Best keyboard ever, just about 4 1/2" high at the back, but almost identical to a Selectric keyboard. DisplayWriters only lacked an inkjet printer option, so you could buy an OS/6 and get the tattoo machine.
If you have evidence that hurricane frequency or landfall is increasing, please share it with NOAA, for they have none.
If your argument is that the intensity is somehow increasing, kindly share that data also.
For like most of the Global Warming/Climate Change crew, you have no real data. All you have is manipulated or fabricated, and allegations based on what you would rather believe.
While there is much study and discussion about monopolistic behavior, and the formation and maintenance of monopolies, and the dismantling or replacement of monopolies, there is less about the decline and eventual diminishment (to the point of irrelevance) of said monopolies.
The movie industry is facing the disintermediation of several components of the industry. Production is being democratized and decentralized as equipment is cheaper than ever, and even animation is affordable. We will see 4K recording on smartphones that is good enough to project.
But the exhibitors are struggling also, with 4K TVs offering a competitive home theatre experience, alternative outlets such as Netflix penetrating their markets, and cable pay outlets such as HBO also leveraging online streaming to expand markets. Geographic restrictions are being defeated. Piracy seems, to me, to be both unimportant and at a stable level.
The producers will soon abandon the exhibitors, or more accurately expand their exhibition options, and make first releases on other channels or platforms.
And exhibitors are trying to adapt, to attract either a loyal audience, or to increase profits. They cannot continue to raise prices on concessions, and ticket prices by themselves are becoming a problem. So more are adding amenities. Regal has had both reclining seats and reserved seating for a while - I see AMC is installing recliners locally (Phoenix), and I expect all exhibitors will.
And audience behavior will be addressed as the market shrinks. If I'm paying a premium for a comfortable seat, reserved seating, and probably a bit for my popcorn and watery iced tea, I'm inclined to buttonhole the manager and tell them that texting and incessant noises are leading me to go elsewhere. In a standard theatre, I'm less tolerant than ever of being kicked in the back by someone's kid. Especially in an 'R' flick. That was an uncomfortable conversation, explaining that a 10 year old kicking my seat was wrong twice.
Industries either deliver value, meet needs, or perish.
"what Clinton did (according to Comey) is not at all uncommon in the Federal Government/Intelligence Community, but it's usually punished by things like mandatory security training, letters of reprimand, revoking security clearance/firing (usually after repeat instances)"
I can accept most of these as adequate consequences. Sadly, though, if she were elected as President, the least would be impossible to invoke.
So in the absence of conviction and jail, she cannot be prosecuted if she is elected, unless she is found to continue these actions as President. Then she could be impeached, tried, convicted, and removed. And we would have succession, the result being a Democrat regime when it should not be, because the Democrats have nominated an unindicted felon that should not be permitted to hold office.
Then you accept it as a cost of doing business, add it to the expenses, and everyone is blissfully igonorant of your hard work making their experience easier.
"Cell phone networks are usually provisioned for "just enough" capacity under normal circumstances"
Oh, like where I HAVE LUNCH MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY?
Yeah, where I eat lunch four days a week there is not enough cell capacity for those 2 hours when we all march out to eat, surf, and post.
I can eat where 'free' WiFi is offered. If I choose something more interesting, I suffer the vagaries of cell service and the inadequate provisioning of my provider. Ack.
And I stick it out, because the rest of the time it's good. My choice, my pain, feh.
Sure they can. Ejecting the media because they want to use their hotspots instead of buying a $200 ticket to cover the First 2016 Presidential Debate might, to some seem questionable, for a variety of reasons. Like keeping the bloggers out.
It really doesn't matter whether you broadcast RF interference to deny a user's hotspot, or escort them to the 'RF Desk' to be told they will be removed from the venue if they do not comply.
Slashdot Mirror
Several of the statutes she is plainly guilty of violating do not require intent.
And please read these statutes. They are not complicated. And they do not require intent.
Why is our federal government even retaliating for a breach at a political party?
Oh, yeah. The US government is an agency of the Democratic National Committee.
Pus.

"forcing the algorithm to be "fair" their accuracy and hypothetical profit goes down."
At least it's mimicking the real world.
Somehow I missed your data.
All else is indeed interesting discussion is analysis, without any hard analysis.
And I cannot tell the a*holes from the sincere apologists.
Technically speaking.

What else can the exhibitors do?
Where I work, an unrecognized (uncertified) terminal will not recieve responses. It will recieve error messages.
Terminal hardware is certified before they are shipped.
Software is updated, and verified before deployment.
Nobody ships untested terminals. That's disastrous.
You're right, Google is a monopoly.
On what THEY do.
They decide to rebrand Nexus to Pixel? Suck it up or not. Your money.
They decide to skin Pixel phones with special sauce? Suck it up or not. Your money.
Their business. They owe you nothing if you turn away. Their loss.
To buy a Galaxy.
In many states these are called 'tariffs'.
I use it almost exclusively, and I don't miss emails.
It won.t slap you up the head and tell you to read stuff.

If you're hosting an event such as this, you should anticipate and plan for the needs.
Go to a sporting event, like an NFL game, and see how 60,000+ fans tax your RF environment. You solve the problem.
Hofstra could have handled this better, or the Debate Commission could have. The method they chose is subject to some criticism, isn't it?
True. Much of that territory became Massachusetts. Then Maine.
Sure they can. Ejecting the media because they want to use their hotspots instead of buying a $200 ticket to cover the First 2016 Presidential Debate might, to some seem questionable, for a variety of reasons. Like keeping the bloggers out.
"Only the FCC can regulate the airwaves, much like only the FAA can regulate the navigable skies."
Define 'regulate'. You mean send men with guns when someone does what is not allowed?
Of do you mean escorting a user to the 'RF Desk' to agree to stop doing what is not to be tolerated?
SneakerJamming.
It really doesn't matter whether you broadcast RF interference to deny a user's hotspot, or escort them to the 'RF Desk' to be told they will be removed from the venue if they do not comply.
