I was really hoping they would have gone for us reactive armor for the battery shield.

Umm, no we are not seeing a much higher level of violence in today's youth. Violent crimes peaked in the 1970's and has dropped ever since then.

I know of a mechanism that exaggerates small variations into having the appearance of large ones. It consists of truncating a graph by cutting off the bottom of the scale.

Well, no.
You don't begin a line of inquiry with a randomized, controlled trial. You begin with a study to see if there may be a correlation.
Why? If there's no correlation in a study, then there's no reason to spend the (much greater) money on a randomized trial.
If there does appear to be a correlation, you report it so that you (and others) may pursue the inquiry further.

Unless you're driving a Tesla, then it's no big deal.

At the beginning of the article, you ask:

At the End of the article you then say:

"as long as people understand the question:"?
Which question? The second question clearly answers the first question by asking "Why movie studios don't allow movies to be streamed...". The question itself is saying that movie studios don't allow streaming in a manner to match DVD by mail, so that's why Netflix doesn't do it.

Netflix already explained why they don't license everything for streaming.

I used a almost secret hacker tool (used by the CIA, FBI, and NSA!) to get this information.
Try it: http://google.com/

This is a physical access attack and therefore not very interesting.
To do this you have to cut the ATM open at the point where the computer is installed and attach a smartphone to the USB port (or in older versions, a USB stick, or keyboard). They recommend upgrading the OS and securing the hard drive. How about putting epoxy in the computer's device ports?

I think it was E.F Schumacher that wrote that.
BTW, almost none of the famous Einstein "quotes" were actually said by Einstein.

I also bet that you could break Mike Tyson's nose with a sucker punch.

RE:

That chart does no what such thing?
I say the two charts conflict and that furthermore both charts are not useful for the comparison the OP we're responding to who said "France has higher hourly per capita productivity" and the person who essentially said "it's the opposite"

I think that you fail at reading comprehension in regards to my post.
I did read both charts and the original web sites (The Conference Board and stat.ee) that they are referenced from.
I cite the second chart only to show how the two charts conflict. I said it agrees with ebbo-10db. AT NO PLACE DID I SAY THAT I AGREE WITH EITHER CHART NOR DID I AGREE WITH ebbo-10db.
I am not ebbo-10db. That is a different person.

RE:

Which is, of course, ridiculous and would be exactly my point if it were correct. I quote myself: "I say neither chart is useful."
BTW, neither chart shows Greece, Ireland, Latvia having double/triple productivity over France/US. I can't see how you concluded that unless you had confused the chart that shows "change over previous year" with the productivity/hour charts. Your point is supported by Lativia's having 122 vs US 104.8 in 2009 in the 2005=100 relative chart (or similar years), but that's about 20%, not nearly 300%.

FWIW, I thought for sure that someone would call me out for using Estonia's economic reports.
For that reason, I suspect that you, AC, did not actually look at what I offered.

BTW, The EU has their own web site http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.... for the same kind of tables with different numbers.

Or this, which agrees with ebbo-10db: http://www.stat.ee/64454

I say neither chart is useful. It's just dividing the GDP by guesses at how many hours are worked by the people in each country. It really just tells us that some countries get their money in different ways than others.
What we would want to know is how productive a worker is in comparable industries.
Consider that Norway's economy has a huge component of production and export of natural resources (oil etc) while Luxembourg is almost all financial services and perhaps banking secrecy.
There is no meaning in comparing the dollars produced by an Norway oil platform worker to that of a Luxembourg bank's US Treasury bond manager.
I'm surprised France is as high as it is considering how much of its economy is based on agriculture. That is to say a high labor-low pay industry, and similarly for tourism.

My observations over the decades showed that the rule is this:

It's called a "law" if the person who thought it up called it a "law"
It's called a "theory" if the person who thought it up called it a "theory"

E.g., the approximations known as "Newton's Laws of Motion" compared to Einstein's "Theory of Relativity"
Consider also:
Moore's Law of processor performance.
Anything called a Law in Economics
Once so named, it stays with that name with little relation to the validity of the thought.

It's a one-time pad system. OTP systems are theoretically unbreakable. The weakness of OTP systems occurs during the exchange or transmission of the OTP to the recipient.
They claim that "Any attempt to intercept the exchange of the key causes detectable variations in the quantum states carrying the cryptographic key, alerting both sender and receiver to the attack and allowing them to take mitigating action."

It appears to me that the catch is that transmissions must remain on the fiber link of their equipment, I.E., in-house.
Did I understand that correctly?

An old joke about neighbor envy ...
An angel in disguise visit a peasant's hut and is brought inside. The peasant shares what little food he has, and lets him sleep under his only blanket.
The next morning the angel reveals himself and tells the peasant he will be rewarded, but the catch is, whatever the peasant asks for, his neighbor will get double.
The peasant, agonized, thinks on it all day. Finally he tells the angel "I ask that you put out one of my eyes".

I think you got that backwards. Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh are, and have been, consistently at top of "most wired cities" lists.
