And what do you say to those who preceeded him and followed official channels to complaint and expose wrong doing? To those like Barrett Brown, Jeremy Hammond, Aaron Swartz, Gottfrid Svartholm and Jacob Appelbaum? Attention whores as well? Snowden is the last frontier. If he goes into prison it's the witch hunt all over again.
America is the place for the best, so if you're missing talent - bring them in. That's how project Manhattan was accomplished. And that's how all the reolutionary progress is made. You don't look at where they are from, but what they can do.
Once the protectionism and nationalism starts, the you're no longer the best, and just become one of the European Middleweights.
So sure, if you want to fail in the long run, ban all workforce and intelligence imports.
And unfortunately, I am one of them. I have to pay almost half of what I make to various governmental overlords, which it says so by law. But if I'd really want to make money, I shouldn't work harder or get smarter, I just need to steal from the government.
You do realize, that if that copter didn't bother the hunters, they'd just safely shoot pigeons, instead of directing their fire towards the highway, because of a law-breaking copter.
...to live beyond that limit?
Cryogenic freezing, I guess.
But seriously, the problem is not the ability, but purpose. It's one thing to be able to survive into 100+, and completely another to enjoy your time on this planet. If you survive for 150 years, but enjoy the first 50 and suffer for the next 100, that sounds more like a Doom episode: Hell on Earth.
All people are measuring when it comes to age is heart beating. But what they should be focusing on are different questions. Like: "do you enjoy getting up in the morning?" "how fast can you read?" "and write?" "do you hear me well enough?" "can you describe me what you see outside the window?"
Can people over 80 on this forum add to this discussion, if they are interested to live another 34 years, until the "current limit" of 114?
Well, at least kids are not going to do drugs after school.
And it'll give them common intellect-based goal, creating communities of capable people, which in turn can spur interesting startups and just maybe even the next Google. It's just so much better to invest in people, than to buy overprised pieces of outdated warfare machinery.
Manhattan project also sounded pretty evil, but it turned out to be pretty good.
By spending over 2 billion dollars? Would you buy a local bakery for a million if you knew that they will make 10 grand in the next year?
Also, probably the programmers/graphic designers, and all the people who matter in take two will fork it, and start their own Take Three. They matter, not the name.
Well, they could install "on/off" switch right on the card. You then can turn on the card right before checkout, and card would turn itself off after 5 seconds (so you have just enough time to go through checkout scanner thing)
If top management believes it's the best choice, no staff would convince them otherwise. The only way i see it is form some kind of petition BEFORE your company is moving to new offices or before reconstruction. I'm not sure how the petition would work when everything is already in place.
Few complaints here and there isn't going to deter top management's belief.
Fortunately my company has open-space for some and offices for others, so all I had to do is get promoted. Some companies do not offer offices for nobody but the top-management. Then if it bothers you that much, you could either rise through ranks to board member, or join another company.
I think we used similar method around the end of the 80s, when we really couldn't trust the water authorities. I'm really not sure how it worked, but the method consisted of inserting two metal rods in the 5-liter canister, which then rusted and attracted rust particles between each other. The particles that didn't make it to the other rod fell onto the bottom. After about 2 days, the rods were pulled out, and the water was ready to drink, except for perhaps the last liter, which had a bit reddish color from rust. I recall this mechanism was used by many, since the water quality was questionable, and no one wanted to get sick.

Why aren't you taking my money fast enough?
That's an interesting perspective.
Unfortunately truth without interpretation acronyms to TLDR
Well put.
Um, no, nimerous people before him did that, and you haven't even heard of them, because they got shot down in courts so quickly.

Cuz they don't want to

From the article: "We've been over a hundred of these and think they all suck" They forgot to mention that Java sucks just as well.

lol. no mod points left though.
Ah... but that's where your problem comes from. Music should not be viewed, but listened to.
...Except maybe with some drugs perhaps.
like murder :)
As long as **aa talks, terrorist have won.

This is the first time I heard about the guy. I don't get it. He is like Tarzan on the Internet.
From Picture4:"I never sex anygirl. Woman I must like first and she must be trust clean too..."
What the...
You obviously want to spend quite some time with all of them, don't you?
Yes, they ARE going to pay for the alternative. It's called walking, and you'll get 10% off on your next purchase at GAP.
