The language in the law matters because it mandates that carriers must make it technically possible for law enforcement to use the killswitch. Otherwise, it could have been implemented in such a way that only the owner could do it (e.g. by requiring a user-set access code).
That sounds like a good way to create an infinite loop of crashing and restarting services.
Clearly, if he were trying to troll he'd have named it "ROFLcopters!"
If you position a car at the top of a steep hill, release the parking brake and give it "only" a small push, it's still your fault that it crashes into the building at the bottom of the hill.
The web-based submission form only accepts
What makes it interesting is that
... "adults" are [a group] that [has] traditionally been seen as non-gamers...
Why is this surprising? Today's adults grew up on Nintendo. The guy from The Wizard is 38, for crying out loud!
Despite all their Orwellian, unconstitutional acts of treason against the American public, I'm sure the NSA is also still continuing to perform counterintelligence against foreign threats (e.g. the Chinese) like they're supposed to.
What we really need to do is start using a distributed search engine.
in order to really maximize your utility, you should aim to specialize in two or three things that are complimentary within your target industry. By combining two specialties, you can be incredibly valuable without actually being a world-class champion in either.
If you're lucky enough that those complementary specialties happen to have job openings available, that is. I've got full-blown bachelor's degrees in two different fields and haven't found a job that uses both yet.
And it still fucking depends. If you can get your AGI low enough (via tax-deferred, i.e., not Roth, 401(k) or IRA contributions) then you might suddenly become eligible for things like the Saver's Credit. You might even be able to get your AGI so low that you can put part of your money in a Roth and pay zero taxes now and later.
Maybe it's irrelevant if you're single and making $100K in the Valley, but if you're married with one income and a couple of kids in a low cost-of-living area it's different.
Sadly no-one has the courage to stand up to them and try to come up with a solution that could actually work.
The problem is not lack of courage; the problem is that such a "solution" doesn't exist.
We'd still have global warming even with 100% of electricity being generated from nuclear power (or solar/wind, for that matter). To stop it, you have to eliminate the fossil fuels used in transportation too.
(I suppose it's possible cars and airplanes might have switched to tiny fission reactors or RTGs in the absence of environmentalist opposition -- or that electric vehicles might have become popular sooner -- but it doesn't strike me as likely.)
for petes sake turn it off
How? It doesn't have a removable battery anymore.
It seems to me that a lot of the performance tuning knowledge is getting lost on a large percentage of devs
As a web developer I'd like to care about such things, but I spend all my time four or five layers of abstraction away from the server and all the performance-related backlogs are prioritized so far behind new revenue-producing features that they'll happen sometime between "six decades from now" and "heat death of the universe."
Going the speed of light is bad for your age.
