Comment Committee name says it all (Score 1) 239
Committee name includes family, women, and children. Perhaps if their families included men the children wouldn't need the government to protect them.
10 GOTO 10;
Shouldn't that say:
10 GOTO 10
Without the semicolon?
Can the government force me to make a public statement, attesting that it's true?
Because it seems to me that the government using my private keys to sign a packet that I didn't create is substantially similar.
Bull. It's no different than the government forging your signature. They aren't compelling speech, they are forging a document.
I say screw USPS, can't remember the last time they delivered a letter I wanted and UPS and FedEx will be happy to deliver packages
Perhaps you could try writing a letter to someone, and maybe get one in return? People love physical mail, and have for a thousand years; that's why the postal service is basically the only government service in the Constitution.
Because we are essentially leasing desert training grounds from Egypt--training grounds that saved American lives in both Iraq wars, and probably in 'actions' that we've never heard of. And having those unexploded munitions lying in their desert, instead of ours, means that it's not our children (or other citizens) who get blown up by them.
And besides, 30 million Americans is less than 10% of the population. The price difference means that it costs the same to deliver to those 30 million Americans with door service, as it does 47 million Americans with curbside service. Why should my tax dollars support special treatment for 10% of Americans?
Actually, in this case it means quite the opposite; investing your bitcoins in something (a scam in particular) is worse than investing _in_ bitcoins.
If the investors had merely been sitting on their bitcoins they would have gotten the returns he promised (although in dollar value).
Apparently, trusting your money to someone whose username begins with "pirate" is a good way to get your savings keelhauled.
Yarr!
The paper said that the new congestion control algorithms are both more performant -and- more reliable.
I'm sure that the designer of the Hindenberg said the same thing!
I'd love the police to just be able to scan vehicles to see which are active, which plates do not match vehicles and which vehicles have insurance.
We are plagued by people who do not have valid registrations, borrow or steal plates and have no insurance.
Bust 'em on the spot.
This would make it more difficult for criminals to steal cars; they'd have to take some extra time to disable the tracking device and put some out-of-state plates on the car.
With citizens, bus fare is not the only concern - the bigger concern is having a house, job, food etc. once they get somewhere else. For prisoners, that's all taken care of for them...
So the citizens should just commit crimes, so that they can get relocated for free!
Of course the citizens are left to fend for themselves but the prisoners are evacuated in air conditioned buses.
Are you suggesting that the state should force the citizens to leave? Or are you suggesting that the citizens are too poor to afford bus fare for an air-conditioned greyhound bus ride?
Written communication by an American cannot possibly be distinguished from written communication by a foreigner. Grammar? 2nd languages? How are they able to tell who's who?
If they accidentally targeted even one American, they've just breached the constitution and are in violation of US laws that came before their grandfathers making them criminals. Why has nobody in the government been arrested over this?
Because they think they can get away with anything. Scary stuff.
You have to prove that they're doing it. And you can't do that because the information is classified.
Are you claiming that superstition and white-male supremacy are not compelling? They sure seem to move ignorant, bigoted voters.
...because superstition and white-male supremacy are the reason that Obama won the past two elections? I'm not sure I follow. Or are you saying that you yourself are ignorant, and bigoted against white males, and that's why you voted for Obama?
When I saw the second part of the blurb, I thought, "They *say* there wasn't a zombie apocalypse and that it was just a security flaw, but maybe that's only because they managed to contain the outbreak in Montana."
I grew up in Montana. I've been to Great Falls. If there were zombies in February, the zombies arose from the grave and them promptly iced over, and were then disassembled using chainsaws.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
