Comment An Overarching Problem (Score -1, Redundant) 497
The real problem is that NOBODY, in ANY branch of the U.S. government, gives a shit about anything other than enriching themselves.
I cordially invite ANY evidence to the contrary.

The introduction of ASIC mining have made botnet obsolete.
Only if I use MY processor, electricity, etc. to mine coins.
If I use SOMEONE ELSE'S, I get "free" bitcoins...not to mention use of the botnet for spam, DOSing and any number of other money-making activities.
Thanks for the laugh.
I especially thought the line "the US is not India, and isn't going to allow for flagrant, over the top wholesale discrimination" was pure comedy genius!
You've earned your name, WOOFYGOOFY!
A President instituted the NSA on his own. A President could abolish the NSA on his own.
A President could also ride a horse to victory in the Kentucky Derby....that doesn't mean a President is LIKELY to do so, though.
According to the Supreme Court in "Citizen's United v. Federal Election Commission", corporations ARE people.

You assume that PARTY A and PARTY B are, in fact, two separate entities.
At that point, it becomes more of a parenting issue than a gun control issue.
I don't have guns in my house, but I still taught my kids basic gun safety using water pistols. They know not to point at anything they don't intend to shoot, and to always treat a gun as if it were loaded and ready for firing.
In the words of Dr. Seuss..."it's fun to have fun, but you have to know how."
This right here is what needs to stop: just because you're a plumber, or a carpenter, or an electrician, doesn't mean you're dumb. Likewise, going to college doesn't mean you're smart
I'm not sure where anyone got the idea that I said tradespeople were dumb. I did not mean that at all. My father, who is one of the smartest people I know, is a retired machinist and a high school dropout.
We need to get back to the idea that learning blue collar work is just as socially acceptable as white collar.
I agree wholeheartedly, and THIS is what I thought I had said.
As much as we need competent programmers, DBAs, network administrators, etc., we also need plumbers, carpenters and electricians. Not everyone has the talent or desire for college, and I think we as a society ought to recognize that. Of course, that means less income for colleges and bankers providing student loans, so I'm not surprised that this is being billed as a radical idea.
I down modded every ROT-13'd reply I could!
You're welcome.
You'd think they would have ROT-13'd the headlines as well!
But no,
My twin brother and I are both college graduates, with additional training on top of our Bachelor's degrees. He is a chemist, and I am in IT.
Both my sister and younger brother dropped out of high school, as both of our parents did when they were younger. To this day, we don't know we got the drive to educate ourselves, but we are grateful we have it. I am trying to pass it on to my two kids. They know that they are expected to do their best in school, and to go on to college.
I enlisted in the Marine Corps my senior year of high school. At boot camp, I had an accident on the confidence course and washed out due to the injury. My DD-214 is listed as an entry level separation.
To be on the safe side, I said that I am not a veteran. This was in 1982, so I probably wouldn't have seen any action had I stayed for my initial tour of duty anyway.
I agree that this is the best approach. It sounds like the problem is mostly organizational, and the document management system is only making things more complicated.
