"...the T2 chip could render a computer inoperable..." and it went on from there. The hinge of this whole story rests on a "could". Twist the hinge one way, there is no story, the other way, and... well... you get this flame bait
You throw that out as the culmination of conclusions supporting some position using some evidence that you haven't provided.
And for that conclusion to matter...for there to be any validity to that claim, certain assumptions have to be made.
First, you have to assume that some member of the public anywhere really cares about what any political figure say, it all sounds like rhetoric unless you believe it enough to have an opinion about it. I don't. I come to no conclusions based on any ability I might think I have - the ability to know what's in someone else's heart - if I can help it. If I can't weigh it, smell it, or measure it, I don't consider it in my conclusions. Actions speak louder than words, sticks and stones, and yada yada yada. It's all lies, all day every day and twice on Sunday.
Then, you have to also assume that results are what some people ONLY use to determine the worth of their appointed representative. I'm one of those. I look at what's been done and I approve. I thought the lack of emphasis on jobs prior to this administration was disturbing and that business wasn't being a priority, because I believe that the most important thing a government can provide is, a right that if a citizen within their sphere of influence wants to work, they have the best chance gov can provide to do so. Secondary, I think the government should be providing, to the best of it's ability, opportunities within their sphere of influence. I think that's a right of it's citizens. Evidence of the gov's priorities for those highest of rights, and others as recognized, should determine what the approval level for that government is. For this world to be perfect, people need jobs and opportunity, and I start there.
All of which serves as at least a valid conclusion for those that disagree with your assertion to have. At that point, you'll need to provide evidence that supports your conclusion. Measure the effect of Trump's rhetoric and provide citations and bring the results back to this discussion... or you're just spreading rhetoric yourself.
It's time to amiably split the USA. The civil war never really ended, and we don't get along. Let's end this ugly tug-of-war.
The right is poisoning people & Earth for profit, reject inconvenient science and subject experts, fill the country with dangerous firearms, embed the evangelical agenda into government, discriminate against non-evangelicals, and select dangerous ADHD clowns as leaders.
The right feeds the left, or haven't you looked at the political demographics of the US farming communities?. Have fun feeling superior for however long you last.
And the problem with your reasoning is that content isn't an issue yet you insist it is. Sticks and stones don't exist virtually, it's just bits and bytes.
I was on the verge of getting concerned about someone possibly using drones to perform illegal assassinations but I realized that a RC quadcopter with a pistol attached isn't anywhere near the threat of the use of government drones in the killing of american citizens without due process.
Possibly any machine can be used to kill or destroy. The real trick is using them to create. Post more videos of that!

I wrote code for nuclear weapons and that was a requirement...not only did you write the comments, they were reviewed and approved before I could actually compile code. It was part of a method that was called PDL. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_Design_Language
Thing is, Apple does live up to it. I had a MBP with a defective GPU and Apple replaced it for me.
I don't know the back story about this issue, but it's hard to reconcile what I read on the Internet with what I personally experienced without believing that the entire story hasn't been divulged.
I've had things like RAZR flip phones that were held together with screws and after a while they get really loose feeling. My work laptop, a 3 yr old Dell, creaks like a haunted house when I pick it up with the display open. Not my Apple equipment. My 5 yr old MacBook Pro sems as solid today as it was when I bought it. My iPhone seems to be made from a single slab of glass wrapped with a metal band. My iPad 2 is the same way - solid feeling.
Used to be, back when the phone company was broken up, cheap home phone makers were bolting big slugs of metal in the base of their stuff to make it feel solid. Solid is good - ever slam a car door? Cheap cars have doors that rattle. Good ones don't.
People value stuff that stays solid. As long as I can get my stuff fixed, I don't care if it's me that's doing the fixing or someone else. I used to fix my own cars, now I take them in. I can't fix the ECU and have no desire to buy the equipment necessary to be able to do so.
You'll have to keep at it 'till you get it. You'll have to be willing to get paid less than others who have a better background. You'll have to stick to it through the inevitable round of layoffs of those around you and may even be subject to layoffs yourself, and when that happens, you have to get right back in there and make it happen all over again.
If you never settle for less than what you want, you'll either get it or you'll find a thousand ways you can't get it, and to pharaphrase Edison, your goal is to eliminate the ways that don't work. You'll be that much closer!
You won't need a data plan, just have it attach to every free wi-fi net it can and check a mail account for a message like "where are you?", and when it sees that, reply with gps coordinates.

Of course everything's about me! What other perspective can I represent without appropriation?
It's an interesting question - "can you do it?"
My next question would have been - "What would it cost?"
And then I'd have started asking about priorities and what they presently had on the table, etc.
Folks sure are funny though, getting wrapped around the axle 'cause the man asked a question.

You know, stuff that matters.
Except Trumps rhetoric has accelerated it.

If my neighbor has a resource I don't have but trades me fairly for access to it, then war isn't in either of our best interests.

If you'd read the article, you'd realize that the premise is quite impossible given today's technology to be cost effective -
"Assuming minimal excess generation, lossless transmission, and no other generation sources..."
Lossless transmission requires super conductor transmission lines. While it's possible, it's not when you factor in the logistical reality.
They didn't get it, we gave it to them.
You think that the entire Cuban regime is of one mind about things? It would be quite remarkable if you were correct.
The only people that would think that making what a H1-B hire makes is a good deal thinks so 'cause a free green card comes attached.

Because they still use the registry.

The system asks "What SSD"?
Do you think a claim would be denied if you were going over the speed limit?
I don't. Your rates would probably go up though.
Thing is, Apple does live up to it. I had a MBP with a defective GPU and Apple replaced it for me.

My personal experience trumps your ... anything.

Having a UPS on everything is a key point. Nothing looks worse than the lame email that "my xxx went out. Sent from my blackberry"
If you want it bad enough, you'll get it.
But...
You'll have to keep at it 'till you get it. You'll have to be willing to get paid less than others who have a better background.

And then going so far as to ask the community for wedding ideas... sorta like asking a Kardashian how to live "off the grid".
What makes you think ths was a problem?
The Iranian will find out the same way as the Trojans that you SHOULD look a gift horse in the mouth.
