Footnote: It's illegal for anyone under 21 to buy handgun ammunition. The .223 ammo used by the AR15 is classified as handgun ammunition.

> Not everyone will be able to do these new jobs. I would wager (ha!) most can't; otherwise, they would already be doing it.

So people are just too stupid to do the work, got it. :P

I know 4 local places that are looking for a machinists. They can not seem to find one. Send them to Dallas please.

So how about we implant them with an AI chip and give them augmented intelligence, that way they can be useful. :P

I love the stat the 20% of the people do 80% of the work. The problem is we still need the other 80% to look busy. :P

20 years ago I was using a 128k connection to the internet from my house and we all expected the gig fiber connections to be here in the next 10 years.

Most people overestimate how fast technology is moving and how fast something will happen.

Because hindsight is 20/20 and it is very hard to predict the future with accuracy.

Good time to learn to be a lawyer. You know these things are going to mess up and hurt someone!

So I no longer need to buy the license for my Raspberry Pi XBMC unit?

Where do I get my free key to open that up?

Well the video title "Socialism isn't cool" got demonetized and the video titles "Capitalism isn't cool" did not. lol

So there appears to be some bias in the algorithm.

I wish I had mod points, I would mod you up.

> Every time you change things, you lose productivity if you don't retrain your staff on it.

In the last 15 years, I have never seen a company retrain their staff for new technology. They simply throw it out there, send out a memo about how great it is, and move on. They expect everyone to figure it out on their own.

What is the point of the retweet account? I have seen lots of them that just take something someone posts and retweets it. Heck there is a service I use to manage multiple social network accounts and it has a plugin that allows me to set up an account that does nothing but retweet what I post. I just dont see the need for it.

Na, the previous CEO's were innovators.

The current CEO is an MBA.

Put an MBA in charge of a company and they simply chase the next big thing instead of innovating and creating the next big thing.

They do this because they are not innovators and creators, they are simply followers and maintainers.

It seems to be the plight of large companies to not want to take the risk of hiring an innovator. So they look for someone who "knows how to run a business." They get what the look for, stagnation.

Welcome to universal health care. Enjoy paying for everyone's bad choices.

Note:

Objective
To introduce the otolaryngology community to the current state of research regarding electronic cigarettes, with special attention paid to mechanism, impact on health and addiction, and use in smoking cessation.

Nicotine is optional in e-cigs. I know a lot of people that smoke the flavors without nicotine.

In those instances, I would assume that e-cigs are not addictive.
