Then he doesn't sign the contract, and instead goes to work for someone else.

But how would he know if it sucks until after he starts working at the company for a few months? He needs to sign the contract in order to get the job in the first place, so by the time he finds out the company sucks, it's too late.

IRQs will piggyback atop the main stack

Not necessarily. Some CPUs allow for multiple hardware stacks -- when the interrupt occurs, the CPU also does a stack switch.

A good attorney and expert witness will make it clear to the jury that there are several standard and well-known processes that need to be followed to test software, and that Toyota did not follow them.

A stellar employee would probably hate that. What if the company sucks? Now the employee has a great salary but is forced to work with people he doesn't like. What's the point of that? Without the contract, he could have just quit and gotten another job with another company.

Unions and job contracts are great for run-of-the-mill workers who have little hope of job mobility. The anti-poaching agreements were not created for those employees. They were created for employees who can easily get another job with a competitor.

People get paid more? I think you're confused. Anti-poaching agreements results in employees being paid less.

How does that benefit the employee? Why would I ever sign a contract like that?

I think the biggest problem is the enunciation. Few of those actors can do it right.

That makes sense. Until you are caught, you typically have only your perspective on what you're doing. There's no one else out there telling you that you've made a mistake. A lot of people change their minds about their activities once they realize that other people don't approve.

This particular problem really irks me. My brother-in-law, who is otherwise a sensible and brilliant guy, let's his seven-year-old play these violent games. My child, also the same age, is not allowed to play them. I have a very hard time explaining to my child why his cousin can play these games, but he can't. I also can't seem to convince them to purchase any milder (and cheaper) games that my son does have so that they can play together.

I have been unable to convince the parents that there was never any need for their child to play these games. But since he's used to them, he now expects it, and suddenly deciding that these games are inappropriate would appear to him as punishment. In fact, he throws a major tantrum if he can't play these games. Despite all this, they still beleive that they're not doing anything wrong.

That is 99% of the airplane security we need, because no matter what, if someone wants to get explosives on a plane, they will.

Obviously, that is not true. There are thousands of people worldwide who want to get on an explosive on a plane, but have failed. Even the shoe bomber got nowhere.

I meant to add "... play the same purchased game at the same time on two different consoles, even against each other, using two different accounts".

There are some loopholes with downloadable games on Xbox and Playstation that lets two people play the same purchased game.

The plural of anecdote is not data. You're making the assumption that these jobs exist for everyone. They do not, which is why we have a massive unemployment and underemployment problem today.

A healthy economy has lots of jobs for low-skilled workers.

Yes, these are playthings for the wealthy. I make over $100K, and I can't afford any of these cars. The only people I know who drive them *are* wealthy.

So where the network is unknown, it won't connect automatically. But you're saying it will still nevertheless broadcast my MAC to available APs??

Yes. It does this so that it doesn't have to wait for the APs to send their beacons. The AP sees the probe request, and sends out a beacon right away, instead of every tenth of a second. Supposedly, this saves time.

However, I wonder what the value of this feature is. If you have a dozen nearby phones, all sending probe requests every second, then the AP is sending out hundreds of beacons every second.
