...that the Emperor could savor the cheese in the afterlife. Chinese philosophy, even today and which makes it so amenable to communism, is to favor central authority over individualism. Whether that philosophy is for the best remains to be seen. Western attempts at the same resulted in concentrating power in inept individuals.
I congratulate Mr. Lessig on his victory. This current trend of copyright possessors to lock up humanity's legacy for decades or more has to be stopped. In essence they are given to legal ability to restrict what a person can hear and see for up to a century or more. That is an awesome power that they don't seem to have the ability to weild wisely.
People expect to have some recordings on a cruise, not in a bar.
Sure, why not? People have an inherit need for privacy. Google doesn't seem to understand that.
Obviously there were other' there who don't buy into her story. How about just not wearing Google glasses in bars? How hard would that be?
Many, if not most, people performing perfectly legal activities in bars don't want to be recorded either. If you walk into a bar with Google Glass just be prepared for the worst. One would hope that everyone would understand the inherint need human's have for privacy, but apparetly Googlephile's don't.
"Except when in a bar" should be amended to much legislation. Bars are places people go to escape civilization, not have it thrust upon them.
Surely someone has written open source equivelents to Snow Leopard's software by now. Even if no one did, there is no logical reason for software to become EOL'd. You either fix problems for the life of the hardware, or you provide the information for your customers to fix those problems themselves. That should be law, btw.
Don't bring recordable media into bars. People go to bars to relax and be themselves, fear of being recorded makes them unable to do just that.
Which puts society on the hook for their room and board when they get put in jail, numnuts! Understand and fix the root of the problem, which might be human being's natural tendency to avoid pain and other stressors such as hunger and poverty.
...as little as possible. What's up with this obsession to play with every second of every day anyway?
How does one or two years of mandatory foreign language study do either?
It enables you to understand the orders your future bosses are barking. Really, Chinese should be a mandated prerequiste at every high school today because why should the Chinese waste precious time teaching their kids to understand just what it is you are saying? Chinese kids have important things to learn and such silliness as to how to communicate non-Chinese speaker wastes so much time and energy that better be spent learning how to program hardware.
Beer? (tell me about beer).
Beer! (get me to beer).
Seems very intuitive to me!
Wouldn't that be a more interesting study? What do researchers make of those who do not want their every bowell movement be globally shared make of them? Do they simply label such people as social parranahs who are trying to hide illicit activity or do they factor in sincere the sincere desires to preserve a human being's privacy?
A meeting is an event at which the minutes are kept and the hours are lost.
