Trump will do the roll back. People know better and are going to ask for more, not less gas mileage.
Canadians will switch from American made cars to Toyota, Hyunda, Honda, Kia, BMW, to cars that are NOT MANUFACTURED IN THE USA. When I was young, the day after a snow storm, the snow was coated with black suet from car exhausts. Today, a week after a storm, the surface of the snow is just beginning to show suet. And my lungs are clean
You joke, but maybe it will help pop the tuition bubble. State school tuition is something like 30x what it was when I was young - it's insane. The more money the government threw at the problem, the more universities raised tuition to vacuum up all that financial aid plus all the money they can from their students' families.
Like all bubbles popping, it's going to suck for a while. But university tuitions need to revert to something affordable when working part time, and that will never happen as long as the government funnels money though (some) students to the universities.
I am in Canada. WTF is going on in the USA? University education here is provincial government and Federal Government's public/private funding. All top notch.
Want McGill, University of Toronto, University of whatever dozen or more Canadian university institutions? They mostly match Princeton, Harvard, UCLA and Stanford. Canadians get a university education for 4k/yr plus extra for room and board. Rent a 4 bedroom upper duplex and 4 students can share the affordable rent.
You can even do evening university (1 to 2 courses per semester).
Education is at the same level as the quoted American Schools. It might be less expensive to earn a bachelor, Master or PHD degree in Canada as a foreign student. I know not what foreign students pay for fees, but I am sure it is less expensive than being in the equivalent school in the USA. Want to get a superb degree in Finance (Hautes Etudes Commercial (HEC), is a University of Montreal (French) school for commerce. Get a PHD from there and your skills will be wanted world-wide. Courses are in both languages (English/French). Want a degree in CS with concentration on AI. See Univ of Toronto, Univ of Ottawa, ETS in Montreal, Wow... What is the matter with your American schools. When does a Chancellor need a million dollar salary? Come to Canada for an education, not for a football team.
Actually, there is a near clone of Windows and the likely hood of people switching to it is low.
But then, why rent from Microsoft when you could rent from a competitor. MS is certainly not going to block you from using wps brand (wps.com) or other alternative to MS Office.
Since most remote interface is going to be browser based, why not use Android and skip MS altogether.
Oh!!! by the way, I use Linux (Fedora for Gnome and SUSE for KDE). I use Libreoffice with the ribbon (yeah, a ribbon interface).
There's an old joke in Canada, that Toronto believes it's the centre of the universe(or at least Canada). It's not far from the truth, every major company in Canada is either fully or partially headquartered there or within 150km of it. For tech, you're guaranteed front access to the best place in the country for internet as well. 151 Front St, basically every ISP connects there, and every data center in the country has a massive presence there. It's the heart of money in the country, seat of provincial government, and within ~5hrs(train), 4-6hrs car to Ottawa. Letting you get all the hobnobbing in that anyone who wants to make connections could care to do.
Downside to Toronto? Nearly 75% of the 1/3 of the population of Canada(Windsor to Ottawa) lives in the area. Your workers need massive pay to live there. The median housing price is $1.58M, but the average worker makes less then $60k/year. In my area, the average income is $43k/year(that's around 140km from Toronto), but the housing prices are well over $400k/year these days. There's a lot of commuting from London, Woodstock, Kitchener and Waterloo and Milton(from the south) into Toronto now as people have been priced out of housing, and that's *in* the tech sector. Renting? Ha good luck. When I was living on Broadview(that's just off the Danforth where the shooting was a couple of days ago back in '06ish), I was paying $1200/mo in a basement apartment and that was a deal. It's around $3800/mo right now, worse in other areas. Living in an apt. building, that has a literal roach problem can run you $4.2k/mo right in the downtown area.
On top of that living in Canada is expensive. Right now you're looking at $1.24-1.46/L($4.50-6/gal) for gas, you're going to drive a lot. Electricity during peak(8-20h) is $0.185kWh. Despite "free healthcare" you're gonna be waiting a long time for surgery, say 1.5yrs for cataract, 1-2mo for cancer diagnosis, another 1-3mo for starting treatment after that diagnosis. Up to 12mo for bypass surgery. On top of that, medications and dental aren't covered so you'll want to get supplemental health insurance from a company like greenshield.ca or blueshield.ca that'll help but figure $150-300mo/person. Many companies have some type of plan, but there's plenty that don't. Don't hope to have a family doctor, plenty of people don't. Some have been waiting 10 years to get one. Also don't hope on finding a specialist for anything nearby, you might have to drive up to 400km even living in Toronto to get one. Whole bunch of stuff I'm forgetting as well.
Why don't you leave. So negative. My son lives at John and Front in a superb condo. He walks to work, has all amenities, and his rent is around 1600/mo for 1 bedroom apt. If he commutes by moving away, he gets a 3 bedroom for a little more than that amount.
And you forgot to mention --- NO GUNS -- and Low crime rate. Look at gun killings for all of Toronto and all of Canada.
And many workers work from home and use skype or other and attend meetings in person once every 10 days.
With the 8 core cpus and the forthcoming 16 core cpus's who cares what Python does. The constraint is going to not be compute power but memory availability and inter-cpu communications.
Python is a great prototyping language, and great as an alternative to some shell scripts. Where launching applications, Python is great. Perhaps someone can provide a Python replacement for bash.
This is exactly what I want as a worker. Also what I have.
For many years I owned the companies I worked for. I'm now enjoying a steady, predictable salary, like these employees have. If I wanted unpredictable pay (like commissions), I could make a lot more money working for myself, or working contracts. I also wouldn't like commissions because that puts my own interest (my pay) in direct opposition to the customer's interest in managing the budget. I much prefer to be able to serve the customer the best I can, rather than try to sell them as much as possible in order to pay my rent.
At my job, we also have metrics and goals - I know what's expected of me, and it's agreed to beforehand. My new boss and I didn't get along at first. My first performance review with him wasn't going so well until we started looking at the goals we had agreed to for the quarter and my actual performance. He saw that I got done what my boss had asked me to get done, so his attitude changed (an employee who gets it done is valuable to a boss).
Recently we came up with new metrics and goals for the team, to align with the company's new strategic goals. A co-worker pointed out a possible flaw - sometimes customer needs might not match up with one of our metrics. I pointed out that having goals doesn't mean we have to ignore the customer while chasing the metric with tunnel vision. The metric is ONE way we measure the value we deliver to the customer. It's not the only way. Since our pay is salary, not toed directly to a specific metric, we can serve the customer's needs from day to day, with the metric serving its proper purpose as but one measurement.
So that's exactly the work situation I like. Salaried, steady pay. Defined metrics and goals so I know what is expected of me and the bosses agree (in writing). But the metrics are but one thing we look at in reviews, one part of the story.
Another important thing I do is recognized, but not measured. I really enjoy helping train and equip my teammates to better serve the customer and the team. Today I had two different people asking me for help at the same time. I love it, it improves the efficiency of the team by allowing their work to reflect my experience, and my boss appreciates the value - rather than having a less efficient and effective team because I'm selfishly chasing my own commissions.
Contratulations. Not everyone wants the stressful life of chasing the dollar. Your decision has probably added 20 years to your life, and to your familes wellbeing and happiness.
Where do all those parts and software components come from?
Of course they're getting their active and passive components from the same places everyone else does who builds to that architecture. If they do it right, building the motherboards and assembling/testing the units in the US will make possible a much tighter quality control and inspection process and greater feature-flexibility.
Naturally, the 'holy grail' relating in large part to security, openness, and freedom in the manufacturing of personal computers is making your own CPUs/GPUs/etc etc, but that takes enormous capital and R&D, not to mention overcoming huge regulatory and legal hurdles and burdens.
In today's US economic/taxation/financial/environmental landscape and regulatory environment an Intel, AMD, or even a MS or Apple could not make a successful start. The big players use the government's powers to pull up the ladder after themselves through laws, Acts, and regulations. That's a danger anytime the government is allowed to broaden it powers & scope, and extend it's control into more markets and technologies.

The benefit they have is in purchasing power. We pay retail to Amazon, Newegg, etc. They purchase items at the same prices as the mentioned resellers. And it is always easy to beat BB's prices.
the electric vehicle tax credits began prior to obama's administration. it was tacked onto the bank bailout bill that was passed a month before the 2008 election.
Im expecting Trump to add a surtax for electric vehicles, simply because his friends in the oil patch need to prolong the lifetime of gasoline dependency.
Imagine all the gasiline delivery truck drivers that will go jobless, or the refinery workers who are let go due to consolidation.
Yes, Trump has to stop conversion to electric cars, not only for the oil industry, but for the vehicle industry as well.
Just business as usual at Slashdot. Incoherent summaries and easily spotted typos. On a side note does that mean I can buy these knockoff processors from Alibaba for a fraction of AMD's prices?
Licensing restricions apply -- chips are exclusively for Chinese Domestic and military market.
Seriously, I'm not big on the whole let the computer handle everything on important things, particularly something that is potentially safety critical. Manual shut off valves aren't hard.
The employee was complicit. All gas stations have circuit breakers and switches to cut the power to pumps. It does not take brains to pull the power to the station.
Tightly regulated capitalism with sharply progressive taxation to redistribute income. Within the next few decades capitalism as we know it will have to be phased out entirely before post-scarcity effects and a lack of participation opportunity for workers due to automation force a hard crash of the system.
President Jimmy Carter, remember him? He stated that no person should earn more than 20 times the average salary of the employees under him. The excess profit should be distributed as fair wages and as dividends to the shareholders. But shareholders are getting ripped off. They invest, and the CEO and company elites often get salaries in the millions, though they own no shares. True, they could make a mass purchase at the time the share ownerships were being measured, and sell thereafter, but that loophole could be closed by counting ownership-days. Computers can do the work.
Now bring back the trackball. Please. nice big ball, contoured to your hand, buttons in the right spots. Too bad they have moving parts that do wear out.
Still exists... Take a look at the Kensington Expert Mouse... plus, they have a 5-year/3-year warranty for the wired/wireless version.
I've tried their wireless versions and I always go back to the wired version due to inteference/lag. I haven't tried the newest Bluetooth version yet, though. However, wireless is much less important for a proper trackball than it is for a mouse.
My local dollar store sells a wireless mouse for $4.00. It truly works like a charm. It has a high resolution scan system and automatic shutoff if the mouse is not budged for a few minutes. It takes 1 single AA battery. scroll wheel can click if tilted left/right or down. A much better deal than my logitech mouse for $20.00
Given that a wireless mouse retails for $4.00, what do you think the manufactured cost of the MS mouse to be and what would be the marketing and distribution costs? Betcha it's under $10.00
Hmm....sounds like one of the first legitimate uses of such tech in the US, like stingray.....
Rather than use it on law abiding citizens,let's use it to more readily track the illegal immigrants in the US (border hoppers and VISA overstays) and use this to more readily track them down.
This would go a long way of circumventing the sanctuary cities that don't obey the laws and cooperate.
I don't have a problem with people coming and migrating to the US to integrate and become US citizens, but if you are coming to the country, at least sign the fucking GUEST BOOK on the way in, and do things legally.
There is a difference between illegal and criminal. If you park your car in a no parking zone and your car gets the infraction ticket, your act was illegal, but not criminal. Ditto if you accidently go through a red-light.
I'm glad you mentioned "illegal" immigrants. I understand the USA is charging these immigrants as criminals. Your neighbour to the north charges them for being illegal and requiring a court occurrence. More than 95% of the illegals do show up in court and while a good many are invited to return home and reapply formally, they have not got a criminal record marked against them. Trump is promoting fear -- And some people believe that the illegals have criminal intent. "They do not". Trump is the fear monger who is raceist , language, color sensitive, and just non-wasp sensitive.
Linux development is free. Some people have to earn a living and the living that they earn is writing Linux internals code. It also takes a large number of eyes to review new Linux code. It takes a large number of eyes to see how the coat integrates into the kernel. And it takes a lot of money to host all those competing distributions. I'm extremely grateful for the Platinum members and their financial contributions.
I am a home desktop user. For my passwords, I run a sha256sum against a text string that I can easily remember for a given website and I use that sha256sum hash as my password. The hash from sha256sum is long enough that they can't figure out my initial text input. My simple text string is easy to remember as I can't ever remember what my hashed value waz or would be.
Still do offer cardboard boxes that can be used to carry groceries to the trunk of the car. There is nothing wrong with using paper bags that can be used a few times. Not all pro juice is going to soil those paper bags. Plastic drinking straws are on their way out with waxed paper straws coming back. Is there any problem to drink a soda pop directly from the edge of the cup without the need of a straw? Let's see if ice cream parlors could make edible spoons. When there is a will to come back plastic pollution everyone will find a way to contribute.
By the time they graduate, all the languages-du-jour will have changed.
