The ultimate owner of land is the state government, and in most places, they even charge the current deedholder a rent called property tax to maintain any privileges
Is this a 'rent'? It's definitely a fee/tax, but my understanding is that if you don't pay your property tax, all the state can do is attach a lien to your property. And while someone can evict you for not paying rent, I thought they couldn't evict you for unpaid property taxes. Maybe that's a state-to-state thing.
The financial services industry, who expects a captive user base both at home and at work, will – I'm sure – be surprised in the next few years when they check their quarterly reports and find that the technology they're using and services they provide, have completely removed them from the arena in which new potential customers look for financial services.
Maybe I have the terminology wrong, but aren't 'millenials' pretty much 25-ish year-olds? Considering they're the ones who will be using, working in, and running pretty much everything in 15-20 years, isn't it kind of counterproductive to try to keep them out of *any* industry?
Along those lines, sure they'll be in for a shock, but won't they be pretty much the only ones around to move these systems and processes into the future anyway?
Not your point, but the local Starbucks or Hungry Jack has minimally some personal interest in not poisoning a member of the local community. I'd actually prefer someone I had face-to-face contact with knowing more about me, than just relying on the good graces of some behemoth like Amazon, Facebook, Apple, etc., not to leak/sell my information to other leviathans who might not have my best interests in mind. But *they* don't take cash.
Speculation is she will turn out to be a daughter of Luke Skywalker. Some suggest may be a grand daughter of Ben Kenobi. But given that Star Wars stretches the boundaries "age", you know Anakin would have been all of ten years old when he married Queen Amydala... Rey could even be a daughter of Kylo Ren.
I bet she thinks she's so great. And she's not even a Star Wars fan!
BREAKING NEWS: DJs and Rap Artists also found to be frequently narcisistic!...
FURTHER BREAKING NEWS: 'Profesional'-style wrestlers and independent entertainment wrestling groups also found to be overwhelmingly narcissistic, in a fascinating dual dynamic!...
OMG BREAKING NEWS GUYS: Actors and many others found to be narcissistic!...
Please, take it easy on me! Narcissism is one thing, but to be a rapper, wrestler, *and* actor all at same time? I'm. Only. One. Man!
Although I bet The Rock could pull that off -- good for him.
For example, children who possess an egocentric conception of space (Piaget & Inhelder, 1956) would fail to recognize that when the turtle is at a 180-degree orientation, its right corresponds to the child's left."
I'd argue that this is a failure in instruction. If s/he was told at the beginning that s/he *was* the turtle, perhaps with a couple code examples demonstrated in first-reptile view side-by-side with a top-level view, the child would probably get the idea right off the bat.
According to its authors, their target priorities and nuclear bombing tactics would expose nearby civilians and "friendly forces and people" to high levels of deadly radioactive fallout.
Along with an enormous amount of heat, thereby ending the 'cold' part of the war.
Unless... they had cold fusion bombs all along, the plans for which I bet they buried in the declassified information! Finally, a room-temperature mechanism for producing city-scale energy -- truly, this is a great day for the world.
Do all the rest of us use mostly the same software, almost all of it terrifyingly full of holes and in dire need of any and all assistance available?
Let's establish a relatively noble history of doing security research with the intent to make software more secure;
Work diligently to do so, and time passes
All the rest of us use mostly the same software, almost all of it *still* terrifyingly full of holes and in dire need of any and all assistance available
re-evaluate the effectiveness of their efforts
choose to weaponize exploits for somebody's petty temporary advantage at the expense of every other user.
taint the reputation of a respected security research institution with the suspicion of being just another malware vendor for the feds.
decide that the general population doesn't really value or understand security research anyway, and determine that their reputation in that area is of less value than being in the good graces with the US government
Fair point. My kid was in elementary school and noticed the media blatantly influencing the election. "Dad, why do they mention crazy every time they say Ron Paul's name?" and "Why did they cut the speech to make it look like he said something he didn't?"
To misquote a classic:
Petry: Hudson! This little girl saw through the mass media distortion with no experience and no training. [to Petry's kid, 'Tadpole'] Petry: Right? [Tadpole apes a salute] Hudson: Why don't you put her in charge of who you're gonna vote for? Petry: You better just start dealing with it, Hudson! Listen to me! Hudson, just deal with it, because we need you to see through this distortion and I'm sick of your bullshit.

Great idea -- here you go.
Words be true, but where find ye replacements when ye take a cutlass to the knee while scourging the high seas, matey?
Yes, that's a good lad, me boy. Now take down the admiral and there's a belly rub in it for ye and grog in your water tonight!

So if the feds keep doing it, it's been narrowed down to one target for lawsuits? At least it sort of sounds like an improvement.

They should have been smarter about it -- start the band as non-asians, and swap out band members over the next year.
Google Genericide. I wonder how long before Google becomes genericided.
Not long, thanks to genericidal maniacs like you.
At least this guy does.

Don't give up smoking until the xrays show a tumor.
I think I'll get a 100th opinion.
Just so we're clear here, you want us to start giving them book deals, reality shows, YouTube royalties, and movie rights?
Sure! "Wow, I'm rich and famous. Maybe America isn't so bad after all."
Maybe it played out for CMU like this:
Just check on Lex Luthor's recent real estate purchases and make friends with his escrow agent. Shouldn't be too hard.
I think I saw him as a stunt double in "The Force Awakens".
The CEO of a major consumer-products company said a swear word! In public! Where underaged users of his company's products could read it!
Actually, is 'crap' still considered a swear word?

Yes, but that way lies a slippery slope.
