Macro-object anti-virus protection in 3 dimensions. Develop macrophages that identify, target, and dispose of invading objects with little to no collateral damage to surrounding areas (residential, for example), little to no disturbance to the area on an on-going basis. Not just for the White House, but for lots of other attractive targets (industry centers, nuke plants, famous attractions, etc.) A new industry becomes public as well as a new operational environment we'll all be getting used to.

Speaking of debts, after you find the STEM topic that interests you most (motivation should be key to choosing what to study), and identify the kind of program you want to apply for, get as much of the requirements done at inexpensive community college or other local institutions with transferrable credits. A few years ago my local community college offered classes at $70 a credit or less - books often cost more. To me that's almost free.
And vote to elect people who will fight for less profits made off student loans, and even for more subsidies for eduction.

Imagine working for years at a small well-regarded tech company (assuming you're more familiar with tech companies) with 56 employees that gets bought out. What kind of actions would cause 12 of your long time valued employees to up and quit?

I think that's not done because it's messy and you have to dispose of the liquid, and you're going to throw away the suit anyway so why bother to clean it first.
So then it's up to you to take the suit off without getting any of the outside of it on you, or getting it on anything else that will remain.

Comment Why no arrests? (Score 1) 278

It seems that blocking someone's active legal service is vandalism. I could imagine that those with such a service might have important needs for it so that damages for not accessing that service would be substantial. So why wasn't anyone at Marriott arrested, charged with vandalism, and imprisoned until their trial? That's what would have happened if an individual did the same thing.
