It's probably best to view government as simply the largest corporation, and a monopoly at that.
I'm sitting at the ER right now wondering what sort of ads I'll get. Truth is you can't count on government to restrict itself so you have to buy your own privacy.
I take it that scarcely anyone here has written software for video switchers, routers, DVEs, linear editors, audio mixers, glue products, master control systems, character generators, etc. etc. Missing a RT schedule…

I'm always in favor of homebuilt OS projects, I've worked on several in-house OSs and they seem to have good ideas salted around them. If it were me, I'd write an open source RTOS (yet another one) and cast around for…
So who decides what the DJIA and S&P 500 stocks actually are? A random number generator?
lol. Good point. I would like to see everyone's list on what a 'skill' really means. It would make a good basis for a discussion. a quick edit: It's a question that really began gnawing at my mind over the last few…
Perhaps the general hope is that we can replace all wealth due to manufacturing, resource extraction, food production, with that produced via internet advertising.
Both? My guess is that the dividing line between 'Red' and 'Blue' is being renegotiated as we speak. The post-WWI political arguments, largely about economics, are being replaced by something new. Trump obviously has a…

I'm waiting for the 3270 version.
Hasn't there been a large increase in non-tenured faculty, teaching assistants, etc?
Is there some reason for all neutron stars to have the same physical make-up and internal behavior? or could they fall into types?
I would think that primaries would vastly favor incumbents, to a greater degree than a general.
Very cool, I'm impressed. This guy knows how to do all the stuff I don't know how to do and it actually works well.
Just to play grumpy old guy for a sec., I can't say that I've ever seen this in action. In my experience. . Line managers rarely make the leap, if anything they jump laterally or go into 'new opportunities'. . Actually…

The book is a bit expensive, although I'd like to have a copy. Given the turn that modern politics has taken, I guess all that matters was this sentence: "Today, as cultures cross-pollinate, and as technologies topple…
It's just my own ignorance speaking (probably), but I can't say that I like the idea of Android getting near/intertwined with mission critical systems. Hopefully 'infotainment' implies something that is well clear of…
