Are you talking about inventors or investors? Because tomhath post is about inventors, not investors.

Do you have any idea about what computer security is? NO, speed is NOT the same as security vulnerabilities. Also NO, it is a stupid solution/idea to make a software more complex and think that it will make your computer more secured.

In your example, Office 2016 requires a lot more resources and needs to load a lot of crap before it can open up. Office 97 is an old version and doesn't need anything much to load up compared to Office 2016. That should mostly explains the speed you are experiencing.

Errr, that is NOT EXACTLY how you increase your credit score. That is a poor way of increasing your credit score with debt. Your friend has no understanding of how credit system works.

There are ways to increase your credit score without holding on debt (or as less as you can). If you can get a credit card, then spend as much as you can afford in the card each month and PAY IT OFF. Never leave a balance in your credit card. Do not have too many credit cards (3~4 should be more than enough). If you can finally afford to buy a car and take a loan (finance), then do it. You should try to pay it off as soon as you can because you would pay less interest in the long run. If you can buy a house, do the same as buying a car.

The point of getting excellent credit is to be able to PAY IT OFF as promise. DO loan but at the same time DO NOT try to extend your debt. If there is time limit to pay off, try to pay it off either earlier or as the time limitation. If there is no time limit to pay off, set up one for yourself to do pay all off within the time limit. The sooner, the better. NEVER PAY LATE. Late payment even once would already tarnish your creditor's trust. Think of you as someone who loans money to a stranger. Would you trust the person again when the person does not make a payment on time as promise?

To summarize the U.S. credit system, there are only 2 things that you must remember and do -- PAY IT OFF and NEVER PAY LATE. As long as you keep this up, your debt will be low to none, and at the same time your credit score would be 800 or above (mine is).

Many Americans take the credit system a wrong way. Many of them don't even understand why it is the way it is. The system is based on trust, not on resource amount. It gives a chance to little guys to be able to create and invest in his/her own business from the ground up. Sadly, it may not work as well as it used to be because economy nowadays is all about corporation, not little guys.

And the methodology of the study is about "asking" or "surveying" kids aged 10~15. What is the implication of "survey"? Yes, honesty. I'm interested in how truthful kids are. Anyway, the study is still not trustworthy and is ambiguous.

Furthermore, the author seems to publish so many publications each year. The link doesn't even include this new study. Thus, I don't feel comfortable about his work quality because of the quantity he does a year.

I can't believe people simply mod up without even verify the information. If anyone clicks on the link, the one should see that the article is NOT a NEWS but rather an opinion piece; however, it disguises as news on a news site (CBS). Why? Because it HAS NO CITATION to any statistics it claimed in the article at all. Besides, it is UNCLEAR whether the job available is legit and/or full-time/part-time. In digital age, it is easy to simply put a link to their source -- citation. Any article attempts to "analyze" data/statistics should at least cite where the data used in the article comes from. Of course, the way the article written will leave a lot of imaginations/assumptions to readers. Anyone can interpret it the way he/she wants to because there is no way to fact check it.

The only thing I know about the article is the (group) author who wrote the article -- The Associated Press.

Also the camera seems to constantly moving/shaking a bit. If it is a real surveillance camera, it should be mounted to a wall or ceiling (thus, no shaking all the time). I have never seen a video surveillance camera shaking like that. Someone might be holding a camera up to an angle that looks like a surveillance camera.

And I'm surprised that a surveillance camera is not that stable at all. Shouldn't a surveillance camera be mounted to the wall/ceiling? Besides, if it is moving, it should be smoothly moving to one direction back and forth? The video shows that the camera is moving a little bit as if someone is holding it. The shaking doesn't look like it is from lens adjusting because lens adjusting should be blur in and out but still stable. To me, this is someone making the video, not an accident.

Yeah, you want to penalize the parents but can't do it, so you want to penalize their love one instead? I can see how coward and cruel you are. I have no problem deporting those parents because of their own action, but include the kids who were here by force without any other way out is something more heartless act. If they actually cut-out the valid time for DACA (e.g. only valid to those kids who are brought in and undocumented in the country on or before the day the bill was passed), it would be better stop exploiting the law later on.

Now you assume that every single undocumented/illegal alien is a criminal. I can see who you are supporting. If that the case of someone being discovered with criminal records later on, then deal with it as Americans if the person has become an American. Aren't 'Statue of Limitations' for? If it is a serious crime and/or the statue of limitation hasn't run out, then prosecute the person. How's difficult about the matter?

The thing is that there are some who did that, but most of them don't. Most of them want to make better money compared to where they came from, so that they can have a better lives. But no, you just look at all of them as criminal, not offenders (to the immigration laws). I don't have problem if they deport those criminals, but don't tell me that you just look the other way and want an easy way out by assuming that everyone is.

You have no idea how to go through a process to become a citizen, do you? You just think that these kids get it an easy way, don't you? You think that they all of the sudden live in American dream while they are growing up, don't you? You think they don't have to do anything but rather get a free path without living through any tough time that their parents force them to go through with them, don't you? This is what some Americans think -- take it for grant being an American. There is no educational class to teach these people. The only way that they can learn it from is life experience, either direct (one of the kids) or indirect (knowing those who have gone through very well). I can tell you that no, it is not as easy as stamping. There are a lot of things involved and a very long time consuming.

If they announce their algorithm, then cheaters will try to circumvent the algorithm, so why would they want that? You don't need to know but you could attempt to find out but not encourage to do so.

A simple and possible way to detect is to track movement and/or attack of each player. If 2 or more players don't ever walk into each other's way until the end of the battle but rather go off and defeat other players, that is possibly teaming. It is very unlikely for 2 or more players to not run into each other in the map until the end (trying to stay away from each other because they are in communication) or walk pass each other without attempting to battle. Though, a more complex algorithm are needed than this simple one.

Rick Schumann had a point and attempted to move the goal post back to its original -- natural selection (or the survival of the fittest). You, on the other hand, tried to move the goal post.

When you are talking about the topic, it doesn't only mean "gene" but the whole cycle from start (birth) until one can deliver the one's genes to offspring without any intervention that is not from nature. Modern medicine is NOT nature intervention but rather our own human. We, humans, already come far away from natural selection. We invented ways to succumb the natural laws. We even intervene other species's natural selection. We have intervened a lot of things (look at how we keep certain species from extinction because the cause is us, humans). In other words, human interventions are not natural selection.

To me, privacy and security are mutual exclusive. In this case, if they allow you to go through the process without verification (or very little compared to others), then the result produces false negative -- a lot more real money laundering businesses will go through the crack. On the other hand, if they do what they are doing now (everybody has to go through the same restricted verification), then the result produces false positive -- legitimate businesses are included. You may argue that some real money laundering businesses still go through the crack regardless, but that is the point that the verification process is doing -- reduce as much money laundering as it could instead of allow them all to go through freely.

If you were the person who has no involvement in these processes but rather a peer, which result would you prefer that could impact the world in every way? To me, I prefer the latter. Remember, money laundering could both directly and indirectly impact everything (not only economy) in different ways.

Do you mean Quartz (or Silica) in sand, not just 'sand', in this case?

It is just a different (extreme) way of teaching education. In western countries, schools tend to teach kids to be more expressive of what they think. These kids will try to broad their knowledge but at the same time rarely want to dig very deep in a certain area. Furthermore, teachers are more like friends to them due to the laws and their parents' involvements, so some kids have no respect to their teachers at all.

On the other hand, Asian countries (not only China) tend to teach their kids to dig deep into a certain area but not broad. They are also taught to be very respectful to their teachers (as their bosses or authorities), and they will respect their teachers regardless what they want (punishment can be harsh). As a result, they are much less expressive of their opinion (being suppressive), which is what westerners look at as a replication, because they don't dare to (or give) any opinions but rather follow the orders.

Both education systems, to me, are extreme. I wish there is a way to find the middle ground of both systems.

Reading and comprehension please... What you said has nothing to do with what happening here.

In other words, it will be happening regardless your diets. It is not that your immune cells go off by themselves. It involves bacteria acids causing your own immune cells to damage your teeth.

No surprised. ACs never read anything, not even the summary.

The payment isn't going to be a pay out as cash. From the summary, it is the total amount that they are going to spend over 20 months.
