Jehovah's Witness != Mormon.

Two different religions who knock on your door. Please don't confuse them.

There's also OpenCL which is far closer to C than the rest of them, and that is a language that is still up and coming.

Dragon Age: Inquisition. Honestly that's the reason this hit so hard - they blew it pretty hard when BioWare nailed it on the head.

Not only that but wireless is optical, just different wavelengths. Photons are the carriers for both and they move at around the same speed through air as they do through glass.

IR scatters in the atmosphere fairly quickly. You don't have as much range with an IR laser as you would with an optical one or even just a microwave beam.

That said this system uses multiple types (radio and laser) because when one doesn't work well the other will work fine and visa-versa.

Not really. Sure you need to splice it and put a relay in but that's all known technology and well within reach of any entity that really wants to do it. On the other hand an over-the-air signal will be encrypted fairly heavily and thus will actually be harder to tap.

You haven't seen the A-series chips have you? AMD is very common on laptops now because the A series has a far better performance/watt than an intel CPU + nvidia GPU

More importantly split the content providers from the carriers and classify them as common carriers.

Xfinity, Cox, Time Warner and Charter already serve the area. It's not like there's no competition.

Sure, and you run into one very important problem: This thing is nuclear. That means that as soon as he shows enough profit for the power company to complain the NRC will shut him down without even bothering to verify simply because he can't explain how the energy is made, there's scientific papers claiming it's nuclear, and someone used the 'N' word (in this case nuclear).

Obamacare means >7m people have health insurance that didn't. That's 7m people who are far more likely to seek medical attention when it's early enough to track everyone they've come into comtact with since they started showing symptoms. Not nothing to worry about, but it helps some.

It's voxel raycasting. That means that lighting is trivial. Physics gets easier too as you don't have to deal with single sided triangles and can trivially subdivide objects. ... animation however. That's the killer with voxels. I'm curious to see what happens with them.

More GPU ram actually, but close enough.

The problem isn't fast vs. slow - it's content creators vs. bandwidth providors... and the vertical monopolies that arise when they merge.

It's not about Crimea. We did let Crimea go. It's now about the rest of southern and eastern Ukraine. If this were just Crimea then it wouldn't be in the news again.
