People are running around with computers in their hands, the phone is now nothing but an add-on feature, as such we should be able to have a real p2p encrypted channel with communications over it, so for people with data plans this shouldn't be a problem. I am more interested seeing if we can have a system that uses voice to send encrypted data over it...

those don't pay steady salaries

well, I almost said the same thing; just that they're ancient permafrost preserved alien farts, aged like fine wine

I would expect to get my pasty white ass shot dead by Chicago cops trying that stunt

there once was life on Mars, and it left methane hydrates in somewhat permafrost type situation that gets slightly warmed at times

that was done in 1949, that Aerocar and other flying cars since then of course require a pilot's license. The market figured it's just better to just buy a damn plane and leave it parked at the airport.

In older times companies were proud of their real leaders (NOT referring to management necessarily). That included engineers who had major accomplishments and who had earned respect for a lifetime of work. Those are the kind of people who could make such a joke and client's customers would know it was that person's joke, because they trusted that leader and had long success with their work.

Now companies only brag about their C?O people, everyone else is nameless faceless disposable droid

That is in older machines; with the advent of virtualization and the possibility the machine might be virtualized, the device is now fully implemented in software with a FINO queueing algorithm (first in never out).

No one ever claimed he invented or conceived of the submarine. Put your straw man back in your poop chute.

forget transitors, they're so 20th century. Quantum dots and such, that's a better use for graphene

the places I have worked have business model viable for decades, no social media hipster in 20s need apply
