Don't look now, but Moto just released one of the best Android phones ever, is about to release the Droid Turbo, and is the manufacturer of the Nexus 6.

Nigeria is known for it scare tactics, I don't see our governments try the same tactics without getting trouble back.
Don't worry, Faux News is more than making up for it by trying to scare with the actual facts, and then going the extra mile (or twenty) by trying to scare with outright nonsense, lies and bull$hit.
They also weren't putting IVs in him and taking care of him while he was bleeding out the ass and vomiting during his final few days on earth.
" The API itself allows for NO creativity"
Have you written any complex api? I am in software industry for 28 years and in every projects that I have worked, I spend more time on api design than implementation. It requires lots of ingenuity and creativity to come up with a set of api. Not much different than coming up with a plot for movie with intricate relations between characters and their personalities.
You need to re-read what ShangaiBill wrote. I will expound on it in parens.
The creativity should be what lies behind the API (call/name), not the API (call/name) itself.
The summary at least says "imitate".
Sure, making noise is some limited form of communication (a dog barking is 'telling' you something). But unless TFA goes into more actual detail, this isn't true inter-species communication, but mimicry. Is a parrot "communicating" with you when it says "Polly want a cracker?"
Actually, that's speculation on your part. Because WE don't understand it, it doesn't mean it's mimicry. Since dolphins do indeed seem to have language, names and definitely can understand sentence structures (as we do), it's more likely your speculation is wrong.
So eating a lot of protein cures HIV? Who knew. I guess those idiot physicians and biochemists and infectious disease specialists and epidemiologists just don't understand anything a pharmaceutical rep doesn't tell them.
Wrong - T-Mobile, who doesn't act like a traditional carrier, is SINGLE HANDEDLY driving down rates.
Before they went on their marketing blitzes to let people know, AT&T and Verizon kept raising rates, or suckering people into plans that they'd then drop and replace with more expensive things at the earliest contract excuse.
Not every market has a T-Mobile. The insurance industry is one such market.
If they employ these methods, their risk should reduce significantly, as well as repo costs, and therefore be reflected in nice big loan rate drops. OTOH, if it enables a person who otherwise would not qualify for a loan to get one, it could be argued as a 'good thing'. I personally shudder at this level of what feels invasive.
Or increase, when someone can no longer go to work and loses their job.
No such luck. The tablets have replaced the black and white printouts of player positioning and play development. Turns out those pictures were provided by the league itself to both teams - it's not something teams do on their own.
So if Belichick doesn't want the tablets to view those photos, he won't have any photos to see.
Yeah, no. You absolutely do not need to eat cleanly. The idea is silly.
Every credit card specifically says on the back that it's not valid unless signed, and as an employee I was instructed by Mastercard and my manager never to accept an unsigned card (or one that says "See ID" or whatever). So I didn't.
To the best of my knowledge, no major credit card companies allow the use of copied credit cards.
It varies. A lot of retail workers won't care, but some will. Especially the ones who are smart enough to be aware of credit card fraud but not so knowledgeable they know about Coin.
I don't think someone would have to be turned down from a purchase many times before they threw the thing in the garbage. It doesn't have to happen often.
All the major credit card companies will be rolling out soon-to-be-mandatory chip systems for their credit cards. The point of this chip is specifically to prevent copying of credit cards. Coin is dead in the water.
Beyond this, how many register monkeys will decline the transaction because it's not the original card? I was trained at my old retail job by an actual Mastercard representative never to allow use of a credit card without a signed back, much less a card that's literally a personal copy.
Realistically, "Internet Explorer" as a standard is at least as important as whatever other "standard" you're using. Especially in corporate environments, "Internet Explorer" is generally the standard.
It is easier to change the specification to fit the program than vice versa.
