Our problem now is a continuing lack of high-quality jobs due to our not following up in promising areas of technology. Prosperity based on ad revenue mined from social media networks is not a basis for lasting economic strength.
But have no fear! Our new tax laws will solve that problem.
And I want to thank first and foremost my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the members of the Academy and my mom, who always told me I could accomplish anything I set my mind to.
When the regulators sat down in that meeting they must have acted in response to a specific trouble caused by lack of net neutrality prior to that. What was that trouble? I am genuinely interested.
Here is a simple definition of net neutrality and links to further reading that will clear up you questions.
The senator's a big boy. He doesn't need you to explain to the world what he meant.
Sometimes, when a public figure tells you what he thinks, we ought to just believe him. He thinks everyone who isn't in the investor class is throwing money away on malt liquor and philly blunts.
Wealthy people are buying digital blockchain cat pictures. A sitting US senator, Chuck Grassley (R-Bumfuck, Iowa) said this yesterday on television:
"“I think not having the estate tax recognizes the people that are investing — as opposed to those that are just spending every darn penny they have, whether it’s on booze or women or movies,”
Get that? He thinks people who aren't millionaires just spend all their money on booze or women or movies.
I'm pretty sure we have ample evidence to start setting up the guillotines. We don't have to kill all the rich people and the government officials who service them, I'm thinking the rest might get the message.
Slashdot called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named “Faggot of the Year,” like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!
The academic reputation of the entire University is now at risk.
No, it's not. Business schools like Stanford's are run like little fiefdoms. Nobody's going to decide not to go to Stanford for Physics because the MBAs are crooked.
Here's a little secret: MBAs have always been crooked. They're basically certification for liars. They're institutions where the most corrupt groom potential future corrupt people the way pedophiles groom third-graders. People who believe that Humanities departments at universities are the most politicized places in higher education have never looked into what goes on at a top-tier business school.
The reason why is because you simply could have said "Think of it like this. You can hire a big truck with a sign on it that says, "Whites are Superior". That's legal. But if you run that truck over a bunch of people". Unfortunately you chose to let your true colors show.
I wanted to put it in terms the average Slashdot AC could understand.
I probably should have mentioned SJWs and virtue-signaling, too.
Hardly get used??? I am from Chicago and I can tell you are not!
Yes, I'm from Chicago. That new trail they put in that runs just West of Ashland Ave around Elston, the "606" is hardly used. The reason it's hardly used is that it's much more convenient to just ride down Ashland or Damen or up those big bike lanes on Elston or even on Milwaukee, which looks like the Tour de France at rush hour Why bother carrying your bike up all the steps just to ride on smooth stones? The 606 is for tourists.
I am from Chicago and I can tell you are not!
Your unwillingness to use a contraction is very unusual for a Chicagoan who isn't David Mamet.
I'm continually amazed by your propensity to just lie your ass off and hope it sneaks through. Here's a direct quote from my link -- hopefully all the words are short enough:
"Just last month, the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office (CBO) provided testimony to Congress on tax preferences provided to energy producers in 2016. According to the CBO, approximately $10.9 billion, or 59 percent, of federal energy tax preferences went to renewable energy. $2.7 billion, or 15 percent, went to energy efficient technologies or electricity transmission, for a combined 74 percent of energy tax preferences. In contrast, $4.6 billion or 25 percent of energy related tax incentives went to fossil fuels. "
Sorry, bub. Those are just the tax preferences. They don't count the direct subsidies to the fossil fuel industries, which are quite a bit more than the tax preferences. Nor do they count any of the external costs. For example, how many wars have we fought over solar energy?
It's an apt comparison. If you want to use less fossil fuels, replacing a car that only uses fossil fuels to get its energy with one that does not necessarily use fossil fuels is a win.
And for the rest that's not, these days renewables receive a lot more tax breaks than fossil fuels [realclearenergy.org] and have for some time.
You didn't read your link, pal. It does not say that "renewables receive a lot more tax breaks than fossil fuels". It says that tax breaks for renewables are "outpacing" those for fossil fuels, meaning they are increasing faster. This is a common mistake with those who really don't care to take the time to read a source but just want to score a point, even with a lie if necessary.
Now it's Saturday, so get outside and clear your head. Don't waste a perfectly good weekend being stupid.
So they can make laws that prevent you from making free speech as long as they say it's for something else.
No. Let me put it in terms you can understand. Think of it like this. You can hire a big truck with a sign on it that says, "Whites are Superior". That's legal. But if you run that truck over a bunch of mud people, you have broken the law, even though you were exercising your free speech at the time. Just because you were in the act of exercising free speech doesn't mean you can break the law.
I've been involved with generative music since the 1980s. You could say it's a serious hobby of mine.
Making a generative black metal album like the one in the article is trivial, and could easily have been done a decade ago.
If you want to hear the state of the art in generative music, I'd recommend checking out the most recent album and the earlier four iOS apps from Brian Eno. His latest, Reflection was some of the best music in any genre released on record in 2017. It's light years ahead of this junk, which is an insult to the many talented black metal musicians.
That's not actually correct...whether speaking of the cities proper or metro areas. Chicago is larger in population and has a larger metro population, IJS.
You are correct. I made a mistake. I looked up Chicago city population and compared it to Houston metro population.
I also forgot to add that Chicago is a beautiful, world-class city and Houston is a horrible place to live.
In urban areas, the expense of laying a dedicated through-way for express buses is also extremely high. The land between O'Hare & DT Chicago is very built up; there would be few ways to put in an express lane for a bus without major disruption.
There's already a dedicated through-way in Chicago from O'Hare to Downtown. More than one in fact.

You mean, "black people waste their money", don't you?
We've seen years of record corporate profits. Where is the "choking economic activity"?

Most subsidies are not tax preferences.

No, it doesn't. It means government can't make any laws that would prevent you from exercising free speech.
But free speech doesn't mean you get to break other laws while exercising your free speech.
Not even close to the subsidies the oil industry receives.
