And National Review and Breitbart are known to be biased. They have no cred with me. The GOP can go ahead and put Hillary on trial if they really think there are laws broken.
A UX designer should focus on utility and functionality, but if the PHB's decided they "need" a dedicated UX designer, it usually means they want eye-candy, and that's what they hire for.
As far as commercial versus open-source, I usually find the commercial UI's more friendly, I have to say. Windows OS UI's indeed do suck, but because we have to use them at work, we just learn and memorize our way around the swamp.
Young people seem better at using small screens and "thumb" keying such that the difference between a PC/netbook and phone is smaller to them. If you spend all your life peeping through keyholes, then you get good at using keyholes.
The potential perception problem is that there are multiple models that make multiple predictions. The predictions range from very minor changes to great changes.
Those in the future with ill will can pick out the models that got it wrong as "evidence" the science is bogus. Those in the know see through such biased cherry-picking, but the general public wont.
Let me clarify: companies do not want regulations/controls on where and who they hire. Specific org movement plans and trends are mostly a different issue.
A similarly, GOP ignores it because it makes their win look rigged. Either way, it deserves to be looked into. Just because the motivations of those who "care" are not purely altruistic doesn't mean the topic should be ignored.
If my neighbor helps me find our lost pet because he wants to borrow my drill, so be it: help is help.
It is an intentional smoke screen put up by our government, supported by the tech companies, and enabled by the press.
I don't believe it was a coordinated effort by these parties. It looks more like collectively sticking one's head in the sand to avoid having to deal with reality.
There are indeed plenty of jerks and misdeeds by many groups/parties within US, but Putie's meddling is still a problem. Just because your stove is broken is not a reason to not fix the refrigerator. (Humans suck in general, by the way. Peaceful civilization is a lucky accident.)
The plot is no more silly than men in tights with superpowers from a spider bite or meteorite. And biz violence did happen in the mob heyday: it was REAL.
As for businesses buying elections, last time I checked, businesses can't vote, and buying elections traditionally means bribery of election officials to help your candidate to win. That doesn't happen and is a felony.
Campaign donations and pro-candidate ads are legal. It's pretty damned close to direct bribery. He with the most money can hire the most shouters.
it is impossible for businesses to influence elections through advertising unless they have a valid position
You give the electorate way too much credit. The situations are often nuanced and most won't investigate the nuances such that over-simplified sound-bites "work".
And the candidate's position can be quite valid, but they can fail to tell you related details that undermine their position. For example, deregulation may indeed make a business more profitable and thus hire more people. However, it may also result in more birth defects. The pro-dereg candidate will NOT tell voters that in their ads. They will only give the up-side to dereg. Cherry-picked details.
And if Fox "News" is more accurate/balanced than CNN, I'll eat a live toad on TV.
We can spend months trying to guess the final effect of all this meddling, but the bottom line is that both parties should be against organized foreign meddling in our political process, period. The actual outcome is secondary.
(Yes, I know, the US has been meddling in foreign affairs under the tables for many decades, and many of those countries have a right to be pissed.)
They are mixed on T. While the tech firms love deregulation and lower taxes, they don't like losing their supply of overseas labor, and don't like being told when and how include/exclude security features to allegedly help law enforcement and DHS.
If two groups simply don't get along, then a mutually agreed-upon divorce may be a better alternative. The red/blue (rural/urban) tension does tend to wax and wane over time since the birth of the nation, but if it looks like we are stuck in a long period of intense conflict, divorce may seem a better alternative.
and people are developing real products that are making real money.
In the 1980's successful commercial speech recognition software came out of the research labs for dictation into word processors and forms. However, the benefits of new experiments were not turning into new products or improvements fast enough to justify the expensive research. When investors finally realized that too much R&D money was producing too few actual results (profits), they pulled out en mass.
The same thing could happen again. Breakthroughs tend to come in fits and starts, and most investors don't like long gaps because they have shorter-term alternatives.
a mile wide streak of destruction through rebel territory the last time you tried it. We'll do it again.
If Lincoln didn't interfere, the division may have continued withOUT war. There were many hesitant to start a war then. Red and blue may be happy to part ways this time.
After I've finished writing "Brain Surgery for Dummies" and "Presidenting for Dummies".
Anyhow, universities should just let the AI bubble pop. That's what happened last time: the 80's AI bubble popped, and universities were just about the only organizations left doing AI research, which fueled the next boom when the hardware caught up. Rinse, repeat.
Hollywood has a strangle hold on movie and TV media
So you seem bothered by oligopolies who use their size to limit outside firms. Hmmm.
conservatives are not interested in playing dress up in front of a camera.
I doubt that's statistically true, but assuming it is, I'm not sure what your bigger point is. It's hard to find conservative actors?
public employee unions in a democracy are a bad thing...can sway elections to hire their own boss
So can biz. I'd be willing to cut their influence if we ALSO cut biz buying elections. Anyhow, unions are a big side topic.
Sure. How many [corporations] have thousands of armed guards with full auto machine guns willing to die for minimum wage... that shit is pure fantasy
Sure, movies are often based on exaggeration. That's not news. Think of it as Wells Fargo's billing scam on steroids: low-level employees pressured to rip off customers to keep their jobs. Concepts and patterns from real life are exaggerated to create drama. Dinosaurs probably didn't roar and bellow very often before eating/chasing their prey, but most people love that movie meme: it's drama.
If you want to see reality, watch documentaries. They exist, but are not popular with either partisan group.
gangs, drug cartels
There are movies about them, but most cannot really relate to them. But, many deal with corporations either at their own work and/or via consumer transactions. Thus, they are closer to everyday life of movie goers.

That's a rude way to describe our President.

Who's controlling it?
What's "it"?
The ship!
You are, right?
Only the rudder.
Whose controlling the propellers then?
I thought you were.
No, I thought you were!
Let's ask Mikey. Mikey, are you controlling the propellers?
I was earlier, but I thought you guys took control of them. See, the red icon is on.
That's not a red icon, that's the object we are about to collide with...

Answering that would probably get me (more) negative mod points.
Not if it's a stupid standard.
States Rights are just about the only Constitutional thing protecting normal states from the corporate nazis in Washington DC.
