The only way your 401k could have been "destroyed" is if you invested it all in Venezuelan bonds.
Not true; selling low is the most common way to "destroy" an investment account. The incorrect part isn't that the account was destroyed; the lie is usually in who is responsible, and what actions they took that caused it.
When a market crash "[takes] [somebody's] retirement out," what that actually translates to is, the person say the talking head on the TV saying, "Oh, noes! The market went down! Sell! Sell! Sell! That's what you do, right, buy high, sell low? OK it is very low now, so SELL SELL SELL" and the idiot got on the phone and sold it all for pennies on the dollar.
The people like you who repeat it are often just ignorant and credulous, so when grampy says he got "screwed" you usually just assume, hey, grampy is a good guy he wouldn't screw himself and lie about it, right? So he must be a victim, not just an idiot blaming somebody else.
Those talking heads aren't as stupid as they pretend to be, the rich are busy buying, buying, buying.
401k is a nice idea if you believe that the average human is rational. But they're not; they're easily misled. And retirees are often already confused on their own, before the newsvertainment even starts targeting them. It is way better to just tax them and provide a pension.
The American principle is that when the government takes your neighborhood to build a park or stadium, they give you the fair market value for your land.
In some countries, an old man can refuse to sell his land and stop an airport from extending the runway. That is not the US system. Never was. The Constitution covered this at the very beginning, and the system works well.
The funny thing is, if you're shooting with an SLR at f5 or something getting nice bokeh and you decide to take a selfie, you probably go to f22 to get the background. Otherwise, why bother with the selfie? Capturing the background is the whole point!
This is useful for back cameras because of the fixed lens, but for front cameras it would seem to be a bad idea.
If you put that many cameras on a blockchain you're going to need a new phone every week, because now the images are immutable and you can't delete them.
Unfortunately, Skuld-chan, you're going to have to build some sort of mind control machine, because most of the people who agree that they want to change it have no idea what the details are. So you either need people who understand the details to stop choosing the current system, or you need to somehow brainwash the people who agree with you so that they possess knowledge.
They seem about equally likely to me.
Or you could start a new political party that uses a different nomination system and try to get people to support that. Maybe even harder than the other two options.
I know "love fests" sound awful now, but they might not sound so horrible in the future someday.
No, currently they're just doing 1 year bans on premium modes of travel.
They've adopted wording that makes it sound like you won't be able to rehabilitate yourself. But they might already have a plan for where those people are going to disappear to.
Consider this: The population of China is so large, and the government's power so opaque, they don't even need to enact a policy to come up with enough people to man a space colonization project. They can just assign somebody to choose people, and be done with that stage. They could select tens of thousands of people that way, it would be as hard as "click click click submit."
I don't think you're likely to scare people out of forming communities just out of fear of the Spanish Inquisition.
Especially people who aren't even religious! The religions even tried killing us into believers, and even that never worked. They lost, don't be afraid bro.
Data science is a real thing; if you're getting a CS degree, you may notice that there are also other people getting degrees called IS. Those people are either learning data science, or else learning how to a staff a call center. That's where they hide the data science department so they don't get picked on by the mean CS nerds.
Deep learning, OTOH, is what an academic with AI in their title calls software that never outputs a completed set of data.
It has meaning because "grandmaster" is English, and "dan" is not English. After you apply translations, you'll end up with some of the ranks being called Grandmaster. Generally, whatever ranks have ELO ratings corresponding to a chess grandmaster.
NASA does lots of important stuff, but you probably don't know about it because most of it is for the benefit of the US Air Force.
News flash: US Special Forces flying around in their space planes don't really give a rats ass if you call them a video game. They might as well be Iron Man from your perspective.
You have managed to say nothing with many words and added some mudslinging too!
And you did, what, exactly? LOL
Don't be such a hypocrite.
I said, you don't worry about "probable cause" when you're a civilian peeping in your neighbor's window. That's for police.
You said what? Only that I said nothing. Ivan, look, you don't even understand what the basic keywords for basic civics-related situations in the US are. Just stop. lolol
You don't even comprehend that the primaries are up to the parties, and the "primary elections" don't have any binding results.
You can't accuse the leadership of the Democratic Party of interfering with a decision that is actually up to the Democratic Party to decide however they want. That is just rank stupidity.
I was expecting to vote for Hillary in `08, before listening to any Obama speeches that is. So were a lot of the super-delegates! lol
The thing is, he did fine with super-delegates; the point of giving insiders extra say is to prevent a controversial outsider! A centrist like Obama who is a legit member of the Party can compete for super-delegates; it isn't some external group of space aliens who exert some irrational power on the process, which is how these Bernie Bros make it sound.
If you can't gain any support at all from the Party leadership, that's a bad sign for your electability, and it only makes sense for you to win if you're the only person the rank-and-file like. Most of the time, there are at least half a dozen candidates that are acceptable to the Party insiders, and so all of those people are competing for votes.
1) Smart people care about these things separately
2) There is no way to prove direct cause and effect.
Personally, I believe that interference by Comey was unlawful and was what damaged the nomination process.
This case is about hacking that made the news, but wasn't itself a major issue. The complete bullshit about the emails was just that; bullshit. And it existed without anybody pushing it actually having a clue what the accusation was. And that was already going on before these hacks. So these are merely crimes and torts, that can be dealt with normally.

Growing a neckbeard doesn't automatically mean it is wise to start talking about yourself in the plural.
I highly doubt that you're from a State without a strong labor department, and where there are so many tech jobs that you're competing with H1-Bs.
Maybe you just interview poorly?

That happens all the time.

They probably got tired of people telling them, "Hey! Leggo my portrait!"
French already had the word autoportrait to cover the situation, but it wasn't snooty and judgmental enough for Canada.
They didn't send it to you. They posted it on the internet. For their friends.
Don't worry about the details, just drink some sugardrink and wonder where it comes from.
I know it is hard to understand, but selfies aren't about you. Just get over it, and move on.

This is useful for back cameras because of the fixed lens, but for front cameras it would seem to be a bad idea.
You're not really going to halve the noise with four sensors, because the perspective is slightly different.
Surely you can reduce the noise some non-zero amount less than half, though.
According to fly-phone.com, flies only have 2 cameras on their phones.
Wait, that's fine for the back camera, but now what about the front camera?!
If you see any with neckbeards, fumigate immediately.
The cameras in modern phones are pretty good. Adding additional ones won't make them worse.
My advice, stop letting yourself try to math near money.
If you put that many cameras on a blockchain you're going to need a new phone every week, because now the images are immutable and you can't delete them.

No tax dollars are being taken from you to the support the Democratic Party.
Don't be so maroon.
