The giant corporations are winning. Ask people if they think it more likely that genetic research will result in exciting new medical treatments or be used by enormous health insurance companies to deny coverage.
What people think is not the same as reality. In the U.S. at least, using genetic information to deny insurance coverage is illegal. Of course, people will believe what they want to believe, which just emphasizes the GP's point. I'm sure plenty of my beliefs are wrong, too.
But "cloud computing" is a long-distant descendant of the "client server" model. They aren't the same thing anymore than a nuclear bomb is just "a really strong TNT bomb".
If "cloud computing" is so different from the client-server model (with the server being provided by someone else), then surely you can name some differences between the two models.
Well?
A government with tech experience is not a nice thing.
I disagree. If all governments understood technology, then they would understand...
The problem we have now is that governments know technology exists but don't understand it.
Numeric stability is probably not all that important when you're guessing.
