What does 'solvable' mean? Woodstock mean temperature 1968? These hippies don't even know what they're selling. Give subsidies to the politically connected? I'd rather burn by beloved hydrocarbon fuels. In the last 6 years I have made a fortune investing in companies that are out of favor. Big oil, big pharma, genetically modified agribusiness. It look like my run of luck will continue.

Great news for those of us who were distressed when that turd Obama axed Constellation. The future is brighter, although 8 years late.

Not in America twinkle toes.

Who ever told you liberal ghouls that you entitled to take the lives of millions of children, and force those with a conscience pay for it? Keep your perversions to yourself.

With the huge number of windmills the chance of it being a statistical outlier are small. They are a fraud.

Yeah, that's what we need. A weaponized leftist activist bureaucracy to act with even less inhibition for tyranny than they do now. And stop calling it civil service. These creeps are out to make a buck just like everyone else. Indeed, these past 6 years, the creeps have done quite well for themselves.

Windmill pay for themselves? That will be the first. The high school down the street has a multi-million dollar feel good sculpture. It's never turning. Of course leftist activist researchers will encourage us to bankrupt ourselves.

The lingua franca of Emacs is Lisp, followed by C++. VIM is a joke.

While it’s true that they will open a physical safe themselves if you refuse, you can indeed be held in contempt if you have the ability to open a safe and refuse to do so when presented with a valid warrant. The “physical safe” analogy is one of the things that’s (unfortunately) applied as an existing-law analogy to crypto.

That's actually only true if they already know for certain it's your safe and you have access to it. Otherwise, admitting that you know how to open the safe (by opening it or providing the combination) is admitting that the contents of it are in fact yours. That's self-incrimination and you can't be forced to do it, though of course with a valid warrant they can still try to break into the safe. They just can't make you admit it's yours, and that's what you're doing if you open it.

In this case, however, the idiot went and bragged to the police that yeah, that stuff is all mine! To extend the safe analogy, that's like saying to the police "Yeah, I know the combination, but I'm not giving it to you!" Now you wouldn't be telling them anything they don't know, so opening the safe is no longer self-incriminating. If he'd kept his mouth shut (first rule of being questioned by the police, keep your fucking mouth shut, they mean it when they say anything you say will be used against you), this case would likely have been decided differently.

It's not the city that passed the law. It is a controlling, dickhead, liberal mayor. As Obama is showing us, executive power can be a very destructive thing.

Yeah, but they're guilty rich white Ivy League liberals with big hearts, which in their minds make them equivalents. Black dominate the NBA. Asians dominate badminton. Why shouldn't whites dominate big business?

This country is losing it. Don't know if you realize it my fellow citizens, but you are getting your ass kicked in the world. Socialism is not working.

I'm 50. I've been working in software development (mostly C++) for 25 years and my salary and bonus are at maximum levels. There are programmers under 30 that have talent but most trowel out shit code. Most know little of or care about design, correctness, etc. There may be age discrimination in some areas. I work in medical devices in MN where it must be less common.

To let this disease run its socially useful course.
