The H1B program is making the problem worse.
Really? This site seems to have a liberal/progressive bent on most social issues, does that not carry over to immigration? Oh, I forgot, THEY TOOK UR JUBS!!!!
I was also surprised by her perfect English and complete lack of accent.
Umm, that's like what happens when you like learn English in a formal setting, rather then umm, learning it, from you know, like on the street.
I'm not arguing with you from the moral point of view, just the legal and real world one: Birth certificate, father: Unknown, Mom when asked, "I can't recall."
What does the system do with that? Not a whole lot it can do.....
"I can't recall."
If it's good enough for people testifying in front of Congress it's good enough for your local DSS caseworker.
if you have a limited amount of money, that doesn't give you the right to claim a large chunk of Bill Gate's money directly from him "because he has more."
Really? There's a whole political philosophy set up around doing exactly that.
Why didn't they just keep Dad off the birth certificate? The State can't go after someone if they don't know who he is....
That can give me a lot more insight into the background of a story than anywhere else.
Unless the story is about politics, then the comments (including the +5s) are in the groupthink sewer here the same as they'd be anywhere else.
no, no, no. you're still thinking of solving the technical problem of delivering signal. this is mostly old news. sure there are a few improvements here and there, but it's far more important to solve the new problem of extracting maximal profit through market segmentation.
according to a deterministic theory, or one where 300ms is a hard upper bound.
in other words, it's a dumbass assumption.
yes, precisely. i'm wondering why "random engineer thinks this is screwy" is the extent of the analysis here. why the fuck aren't people doing more? isn't this why we have ludicrously large lawyer awards for class-action cases?
uh, since ransom malware generally isn't targeted, that doesn't make a lot of sense. the line you're referencing is that once you pay the danegeld, you never get rid of the dane.
malware is more of a "stumbling into a pit full of spikes" thing than a "village being raided by vikings" thing.
since they just throttle the connection into tiers so as to maximize profit, isn't it at least possible that the higher tiers also have lower latency or higher prioritization (among the ISP's users, not necessarily of youtube)?
You even might be able to find Congress' popularity down there....
If I want to do stuff that doesn't involve deep thought, I play some mindless video game (like an old NES game with an emulator, or an old arcade game like Pac-Man), or I go hiking or biking, or maybe watch some silly TV show like Big Bang Theory.
And other people watch Honey Boo Boo and Duck Dynasty. Some smoke weed. Some find themselves on mindless websites. I fail to see why those choices are any less valid than yours.
You also seem to know an awful lot about Duck Dynasty; are you a closeted fan? I've never seen an episode myself -- no CATV in the Shakrai household -- the little bit I know about it comes from those people that get offended over it, which amuses me because nobody is forcing them to watch it.
BTW, you may think Robertson is an idiot, but he's made millions of dollars while you tilt at windmills on Slashdot.
I guess I can believe one of two things:
1) You're a smug elitist.
2) You're clairvoyant enough to know what every single viewer of Duck Dynasty believes.
I used to watch 24; if we apply your logic that means I condone torture. Funny that, I always found the show appealing because it had lots of gunfights, explosions, the occasional set of tits, and didn't require me to think very hard.
