This law is a terrible idea. And, why it is a terrible idea has nothing to do with your opinion on Homoeopathy.
This is a case of politicians making medical decisions. Medical decisions should be made by doctors not politicians. It should be doctors and medical boards who decide whether or not a particular prescription is effective.
Banning a drug because public opinion does not like it is bad health policy.
Mountview cops have been known to pull drivers over who are going too slow because they suspect they are drunk drivers who are being extra careful to avoid being pulled over by the cops. If you are in a bar late at night in Mountview someone will often warn you don't drive too slow when you drive home.
Because 90% of the employers would add knowledge of Hindi as a essential requirement to their job description and thereby make it much easier for the contracting firm to prove no American citizen meets the job requirements.
However, I think it will be unlikely that the NSA will comply with the order, and that no one will be able to determine if NSA complied with the order, and if it was found NSA did not comply with the order no one would be punished.
An easy way to reduce the cost of getting cargo into space is to not send humans in the same spaceship. Making a spaceship safe enough for humans is expensive.
Skylon's idea is to use oxygen from the air, rather than taking the oxygen as fuel for the initial part of the ascent. A well known idea that is being worked on elsewhere.
No. The real issue is do we want the police to search email in order to solve crimes or do we want the police to search email in order to find crimes. The whole issue of warrants is that they are used in order to solve and not find crimes.
The terrorism issue is relevant in that the only effective way to stop terrorists is to search email of vast numbers of persons before any crime has been committed.
Nope. The vast majority of persons have made no such choice because they have no idea the data Google and Facebook is collecting on them. For example, you will not find anything in their T&C about them providing all your personal info to the NSA.
Not a right, an entitlement. A right is something the government can not stop you from doing. An entitlement is something the government must provide you. The distinction is important. Governments do not provide anyone with rights. Governments can only take rights away.
Nope. The British never committed genocide against Indians. A better example is we are not willing to admit that the Israeli government engages in apartheid.
A simpler and fairer solution could have been the requirement that the price charged for inmate calls must equal the price charged for prison staff calls.
Stop blaming your doctor for your own incompetence.
I'm incompetent? I don't work at the doctor's office. How do I control who they send their labwork to. I can and have told them not to send the bloodwork to Quest. They do it anyway. You don't get to decide where it goes, you don't get to just "send" it yourself..
I will make it more explicit. For example, say your favourite test facility is Labcorp:
1. If your doctor writes you a requisition on a paper Quest form, take the form to Labcorp and Labcorp will do the bloodwork. 2. If your doctor sends an electronic requisition to Quest, walk into Labcorp and tell them to transfer your requisition from Quest. Labcorp will then do the bloodwork.
If you can't follow these instructions you are incompetent.
There is no requirement that you have your blood-work done at Quest. You may have your blood-work done at any facilitate of your choice. If your doctor electronically sends the request to Quest you can have it transferred to any other facility. I personally have frequently transfer my blood request to different facilities all the time.
Also, Quest does not automatically bill the patient first.
Stop blaming your doctor for your own incompetence.
What I have seen: Someone submits a fix that does not quite work. Linus reverts the commit with a long diatribe on why the user is stupid for what he did. The end result is work was done, but nothing is produced. And, the developer likely gives up.
What could Linus have done instead:
* He could have modified the commit so that it does work. * He could have sent the submitter ideas on how to fix the code. * He could have opened an off-line dialogue discussing solutions to the problem. * He could have had better test procedures so that the submitter would have know there was an error in his commit. * He could have added a test case so that this commit error does not happen again.
Lots of productive things he could have done instead.

You can not make knowledge of a foreign language a requirement for an immigrant visa.
However, I think it will be unlikely that the NSA will comply with the order, and that no one will be able to determine if NSA complied with the order, and if it was found NSA did not comply with the order no one would be punished.
Agile is a scam to increase the amount of time spent in meetings.
They are not incompetent. They will make over $3 billion from the project. From IBM's POW it is a great success.

They don't need a key, they can break the door down.
There's no reason for normal email, IMs, video chats, web surfing, etc to be available at all to anybody who isn't among the intended recipients.
Yes there is. To catch criminals and to solve crimes.
I don't have a Facebook account, and unless I'm forced to at gunpoint, I never will.
You already have a Facebook account. Facebook creates shadow Facebook accounts for those who are willing to create one themselves.
Nope. The vast majority of persons have made no such choice because they have no idea the data Google and Facebook is collecting on them. For example, you will not find anything in their T&C about them providing all your personal info to the NSA.

Only fools invest in these things.
Only fools call providing money through crowd funding an "investment".
The incompatibility is that businesses need software that works. The OSS community wants to produce buggy, incomplete, undocumented software.
And how many of the members are black.

Nope. The new KKK accepts blacks and all people of colour as members of its organization.
Nope. The British never committed genocide against Indians. A better example is we are not willing to admit that the Israeli government engages in apartheid.

You didn't supply an explanation on how RGJ's car window was broken.
The problem starts at the top.
