Are there mistakes made? Of course. Unfortunately the process is administered by human beings who are flawed vessels at best.
Which is exactly why we have that dusty old Constitution thingy, an artifact the Security State not just ignores but openly flaunts.
"I mean, face it, men are just more willing to be the trolls and make life miserable for each other. Women see that and avoid the whole issue altogether."
Absolute truth. Women as a group tend to be more emotionally mature, and apt to avoid senseless conflict. Men are perfectly free to act like 14-year-old testosterone-mad Peter Pans, but women are just as free to reject their infantile behavior.
Hence the loud and obnoxious minority of gaming griefers, social media trolls, and the whole misogynistic mom's basement sub-culture.
Yeah, but only 1%ers can afford them.
Probably junction resistance (cold solder) or corrosion (shitty base alloy or plating).
As I near the end of a nominally successful electrical engineering career that spans the humble analog beginnings of automation to the roboticized present, I can look back and smile at what a smart-assed punk kid I was, deriding the old-timers with snot-nosed comments and the immeasurable over-confidence of youth.
Barring an early death, everyone gets old. Know what? I neither desire nor require the respect or veneration of the young. I got mine. As jobs get scarcer and pay less with each passing year, all I can say to the smartaleck young snerts is, "Suck it. See you in St. Croix."
On the other hand, ask me nicely and I'm happy to lend a helping hand.
Respect is a two-way street with no speed limit.
What? Let technology drive a technology company's strategy instead of marketing?
Witch! Burn her! Burn her!
So, the FBI is already making the case for, "We need full monitoring and control intervention capability for everybody's new cars, because terrorists."
It's suddenly a buzzword because the start-up marketing shitheels needed a "next big thing" to peddle to the VC's.
As in, "Snowden and unreliability are killing my Cloud investments and...oh look! IoT squirrel!"
I envy your optimism and agree that ISPs are the problem, but I don't see how new companies and services will force change upon ISPs.
New ISPs? Not in the state-sanctioned monopolist USA.
Loss of customers? See above.
The ISP and backbone provider bridge trolls sleep soundly, knowing that no one has the money or statutory permission to build competing bridges.
Only the FCC and Congress could do that, and the oligarchs are quite happy with the current bridge trolls.
Works for me!
Max Headslash?
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
