Ok fine. The proportions are off. So let's do some guesstimates based on the total energy. According to this http://www.geologyinmotion.com... the 2011 Japan tsumani had somewhere between 31 and 3100 KILOTONS of energy. That's equivalent to the energy in 1 to 100 Hiroshima nuclear bombs. So I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to figure out how to power a line of giant squirt guns that deliver the equivalent of between 1-100 Hiroshima nuclear bombs of energy as a directed stream of water.
While you're at it, I think the military might be interested in your nuclear water cannon.
Why don't you try a mythbusters style experiment? Scale everything down. To simulate the tsunami wave, you will go to the beach and find a nice 4 foot wave. To simulate your massive high pressure water pump you will use a squirt gun. Use one of those "monster cannon" squirt guns. Wait for wave. Aim squirt gun. Fire. Record how you totally dissipated the wave's evergy, or not. I'm sure Japan is eager to see your results.
The Berlin wall was not built to keep people on the outside.
And that is why it failed...
Hmmm.
Maybe we need to automate the legal system. We could use to reduce the number of lawyers by several orders of magnitude.

A couple Megara's would do the job.
I would first confirm that the visitor is actually a Jehovah's Witness before shooting him.
Elite doesn't mean anything without context. You've determined that playing well with others is the context, so, those who do play well with others are elite, and the rest crap.
You're incapable of creating an inclusive community. They require acceptance of all.
He wasn't a genius, he was a figurehead for a popular opinion of the time.
Understanding that is key to preventing a repeat. For reasons that made sense to them, they chose him because he said "Let's get those fuckers" and they reacted eagerly.
I predict just before release they will name it "Microsoft Browser", keeping with their habit of trying to co-opt the generic term for a technology but only ending up making it impossible to do keyword searches for their software.
You heard it here first.
You sure sound like an elitist...
Fine. Then go after Google to stop playing drone videos with ads.
This is the kind of binary thinking from programmers that erodes the nascent relationships among well-meaning human beings. Your ignorant approach is neither an "Uncomfortable Truth" or a useful concept. Often the most obstreperous person can be the most productive, but they must be carefully taught in social graces. Even elementary schools have learned that "Everyone work alone!" is not a useful model; the best schools now bring along the slower (or more socially inept) students through consistent and persistent group activity. Only autocrats refuse to work on building viable, productive teams in which a disparate members each contribute in their own ways, but in accordance with a common "culture" of mutual respect.
So, the people who are in pain and reflexively lash out at others...
The people who are screwed up socially and offend others without knowing what they're doing...
The people who have no where to turn and no community to welcome them...
You will turn those people away because they're not playing well with others, because they ruin the "peace, love and pancakes" "viable, productive team" kind of atmosphere that you're going for.
And then, you will pat yourself on the back for being welcoming and inclusive?
No. You just have a different definition of what "elite" means.
Memory fault - where am I?
