Also those big projects might not have made billions for those who invented it, but it did enable many others make billions standing on shoulder of those giants. They created trillion dollar computing and associated software market.
A better name would've been TakeNoBullshit award. Because that is what which rots the world and Aaron tried to fight it to save others from being subjected to the same bullshit.
Like 2muchcoffeeman commented:
>>The award is clearly for people who are being disobedient for the benefit of society.
Breaking rules for the sake of breaking rules is just anarchy or trolling. You're just inconveniencing people who set out to recognise real contributions to society.
Try manjaro kde. It has pretty good auto detection and configuration for hardware. Looks like ubuntu messed up release 16 and it rears its ugly head on many ububtu based os. It feels so brittle. Debian based netrunner kde is also nice but I like manjaro better for its excellent ux.
Chemical weapon or not doesn't matter. US has committed plenty of war crimes and have killed millions, most of them not even an immediate or future threat to US.
Yemen and Somalia is effed into stone age by all the drone attacks which is only creating more of so called "terrorists" in a country 11000kms away. Which is terrorism? Killing many innocents on a daily basis by a country or people there trying to defend their country against external aggression? All those innocents being killed is plain wrong.
Electoral votes = senators + congressmen. All votes from a state goes to winning candidate as it is winner takes all. So Trump won. Does popular vote mean all votes from US tallied together as a whole or is it winner takes all votes from that state and then tally each state? My argument was based on the understanding that its the later one.
It would have higher speeds and thus hard to intercept. This is going to lead to a new space weapons race, which is bad. US has no need for it as they have plenty of other good weapons anyway.
Yes, I know what popular vote is. Am just saying that US presidential electoral college system works correctly as it gives each state in the federal system equal weight in choosing the president. It was never designed to be by popular vote of individuals. So it doesn't matter at all.
Popular vote doesn't matter. The presidential candidate that wins in a state gets the vote of the state(and so all the votes from that state). If it was by popular vote then votes from California, New York etc will get more weight than other states.
How did Hillary became the prime candidate even when it was Bernie that had high turnout? DNC leadership favored Hillary blindly, thats why. If the leadership was neutral Bernie would've been the main candidate by popular vote. If the race was between Bernie and Trump, Bernie would've win.
Not to mention that all most all media channels were bashing anything Trump but actively not reporting bad things about Hillary. Even the slightest negative about Trump got coverage whereas Hillary was safe from such media bashing. If Trump and Hillary where given neutral and equal coverage, then Trump would've gotten even higher vote.
First quote shows Chumley has no idea of how tech works, the costs involved, and the negligible effect it will have on the problem he is trying to solve.
> “If we could have manufacturers install filters that would be shipped to South Carolina, then anything that children have access on for pornography would be blocked,” Chumley said. “We felt like that would be another way to fight human trafficking.”
What? I guess he thinks child pornography is "porno for children". So he wants manufacturers to install filter that would block children from viewing porn by blocking access. Which by the way does not help prevent human trafficking at all.
Even amongst same species things might be different. Take humans for example. Women and men have no clue how each other think about certain things that are very closely related to gender because they don't experience what other gender go through and experiences everyday. Some ant species farm coffee trees. Many rear aphids. It is very good enough evidence that they are conscious. Similarly animals and birds. They all know enough about their environment to identify their family/tribe, find food, etc. We may never understand ways of a cat unless we become one and live as a cat. Human kernal is incompatible with cat kernal and so for many inputs native to a cat we may not even know those exists. Like we didn't knew about animals communicating in frequency outside our freq etc until we developed tech to detect such sound. Its so amazing.
