Take a look at The Assimilation Project : What we do: Continually discover and monitor systems, services, switches and dependencies with very low human and network overhead.

yea, i know. i got no life.

And idiot brains taste terrible. Brains of politicians are unedible. More's the pity, but it does explain a lot.

Blood samples are already a condition of coverage for some insurance. Now prospective employers have a reason for doing the same. Not that either would ever reject anyone on the grounds that they might have health issues. No, they were rejected because a better candidate was found. Nine months later. Question is, would they alert the applicant of the findings? If they did that and the person didn't know someone might put 2 and 2 together. Can you imagine being told by the HR email robot that you weren't selected for the job. Oh and by the way you've got cancer.

"Reputation" is a digital artifact that can be manufactured and manipulated. I'd hate to think my payckeck was dependent on my Slashdot Karma times number of Linked/In connections times Stackfault rep. Why not base it on something objective but equally irrelevant like height or nosehair count. Just not size of woowoo.

Now politically incorrect and unfashionable, holding people accountable for their decisions and making examples of those who chose the path of irresponsibility is ancient history. I expect that Crosswalk Countdown Incursion Syndrome to get a nod from the theraputic community and it's own pill* before Christmas.

If the Heisenberg compensators aren't aligned I get terrible Parallax Reality Syndrome (PRS). Best fix is a stiff PGGB (Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster)

"Whoosh" is the sound made by a joke flying right over someones head. Have you had your hearing checked recently?

While a screen with decent resolution is nice, I really need (not want -- NEED) a phone with good vocal quality and zero latency on the voice side. Show me a phone, encoding scheme, network and carrier with _that_ and I'll sign a life membership. I have googled my pants off for "cell phone voice latency" test results with no meaningful hits. The conspiracy-theorist part of me says the cell phone mfgrs & carriers all know how horrible they are when compared to landline so they've agreed to not test or not alert the consumer to this measurement.

does that mean Health and Human Services knows best how to conduct a war in Iraq?
