I live in Canada, and we're going through something similar with a 'temporary foreign workers program'. Workers are brought in from other countries because people aren't willing to work for the salaries that the employers deem affordable... that's not how a free market works... is it?
The Canadian government has been put on the spot to the point, that they actually have to act on behalf of Canadian WORKERS, rather than employers.

Keeping fighting to keep this issue current and in the news. It's terrible for the workers, it's terrible for your country, and in the long run it's terrible for the employers.

At the risk of sounding like a HR/CEO cliche, the most valuable asset for a tech company is its people. Also, quantity does not equal quality.
Cliches are sometimes based in truth.

As a design engineer, I always like to have a couple of prototypes before I commit to a design because '1.0' doesn't usually work.

With this technology we should be able to understand Dolphin-talk.
It should also allow us to detect future ape rebellions before they happen.

It won't be noticeable to humans...
They won't exist by the time it get's that warm.

How much time was wasted on the designing the keyboard?

I'm a Canadian and I'm confused.
As I see it, Americans take pride in individualism. If the U.S. government does too much, or gets too big, it's 'Socialism', or even worse 'Communism'.
The constitution, defends the right to bear arms, so don't even think about limiting rights to guns. The constitution is sacred...

If the government wants to monitor every thought in the country, even through it's unconstitutional, and it's secret...
go ahead...
I'm sure you have a good reason...
WHAT????

I DON'T GET IT.
Where's the individualism, where's the fight for the constitution, isn't the government too big....
What am I missing?

The problem with this type of science is that it only examines one variable at a time.
I strongly suspect that those children that are smoking cigarettes with their soda will be mellowed out, but sadly the study failed to even consider this, which leads to unnecessary alarmist reactions.

You can also tell if someone is home through unencrypted lightbulb signals through windows.

Kids love to play with empty beer cans and whiskey bottles.
I have them all over my floors and it's like a playground for my kids.

If we're looking for firsts....
I once had a cold and sneezed on my keyboard.
Does that make me the first human to infect a computer???

Net Neutrality == Commie Reality
Governments involved in the internet is the triumph of socialists over free market.
I wrote the above crap, and I'll admit it's stupid.

I've toured several Asian factories and this is the reality of Asian work life. People live in factory dormatories, work 6 VERY long days a week, and sleep at their desks when they get tired. We can pretend that we're shocked, but we all know that goods from Asia are dirt cheap and yet we never seem to ask "WHY"? Is this willful blindness? Until we start imposing tariffs based on unequal labour standards, this will never change.

I think that artists should be rewarded for their efforts and as such I buy all of my music; however, I now realize that this means I am ALSO supporting these thugs? Maybe i should reconsider my activities, because I DO NOT WANT TO SUPPORT THESE GUYS. What should I do?

Practical applications are the best way to learn. I'd suggest automating your job. A webcam and a computer controlled Taser would be a great platform for making your life easier.

Governments illegally read email and tap telephone calls. So don't worry about being assured that your privacy is protected.... it isn't.
