Too true. It used to be that more people had to grow food. Now that one person with huge machinery can do the farming of 70 peasants, the other 69 people have found other useful things to do. Peasants didn't have smartphones, YouTube, or fine art. A lot of people are employed in creating different things that people value.
If you only have the skills to do what a robot can do, and the robot costs less than you, then you are obsolete. I don't have pity on you. Fortunately, there are very few people who fit that description.
I imagine that people will spend most of their time in the automated utopia trying to entertain each other. Whoever entertains the most effectively can buy the best entertainment for themselves. LOL
A company's profits are used to pay employees wages? I'm thinking companies usually categorize wages under operating expenses.
Did you mean revenue?
It could be that they have only a few packet size buckets and round up: 64/512/1500.
But damn, it should be mandated that any rounding be explicit in the contract.
Damn, wish I had mod points. Backhaul capacity is the scarce resource.
My VDSL modem for U-verse is connected at a sync rate of 25Mbps. I only get 6Mbps down, though. It doesn't cost the ISP any more to have my data transmit faster over the copper pair.
Since when is an IP header 24 bytes? What IP options would you be using to send a 1 byte UDP message?
I'm surprised the wireless side hasn't had more discussion on what they consider part of your usage. Sounds like we need legislation to require disclosure.
It gets worse than this.
Your wireless bill is highly dependent on usage, considering the typical 5GB limit. LTE links are going to start using ROHC (RFCs 3095, 5225, etc.) as soon as interoperability and stability is good enough. I know because I'm developing it.
Do you think the wireless vendors will charge you for those 40 bytes of IP/UDP/RTP headers that were compressed down to 1 byte? Damn right they will.
I think you meant to write "complimentary."
What the hell is angaging?
Nature's candy!
Gallium is freaking awesome. When I switched to the open source video drivers and Gallium I was able to run Compiz with one Nvidia card and one AMD card simultaneously. Simultaneous lovin'
You said, "Android apps on both platforms are pirated 2,300% more often..." The article says that a single app, Facefighter, was pirated that much more often. So this is saying "what you saw?" That's pretty disingenuous.
The "rational?" Seriously? Are we talking about mathematics?
Fsck his dense?
Similar principles apply when locking your bicycle. Always lock it to something at least as difficult to cut as your bicycle lock/chain.
Happiness is twin floppies.
