I get it you don't understand our politics.

So we basically have two parties here. One is openly fascistic that's the Republicans and the other are milk toast administrators.

From the outside where you're at it can seem like the Democrats are the villain because they aren't stopping the fascists.

This is a human animal response. Basically if you're getting the shit kicked out of you and it feels like somebody's just standing there watching then you don't usually get angry at the guy kicking the shit out of you you get angry at the guy watching.

Now if you take a step back and learn about our politics you'll understand that while the Democrat party really are just administrators shuffling papers and running the government it's the Republican party that pushes everything to hell.

Start by looking up newt Gingrich and the contract with america. Go look into what America did post 9/11 and compare Bush Junior's response to what Al Gore's would be. Look into Richard Nixon starting the drug war to attack his political enemies. And let's not forget Ronald Reagan and death squads he funded and then the Republican party using chaos caused by their presidents and the refugee crisis it created to push the current immigration crisis over the edge and use it to seize power.

Now again you're not American so you probably don't understand that we're a two-party system because we have winner take all voting. And most Americans don't understand that the primary elections are aware of actual decisions about American politics get made.

So if you have all this context you understand that the Republican party is genuinely evil in the same way the Nazis and Stalin's regime and Pol pot and all the other dictators are evil. They're fascists openly and obviously.

But looking into Germany on the outside it probably wasn't immediately obvious that Hitler was a fascist unless you knew a lot about German politics or a 1930 to 1940. Most people do because of world war II but that's only because of hindsight. You can be forgiven for not knowing all of this about America.

On the other hand I think the rest of the world needs to wake the fuck up because my country is inches away from going the way of 1930s Germany and that's not going to end well for anybody... I'm just saying that letting Putin run roughshod over us in the hopes that will be taken down a peg probably isn't a good idea given that it's not like our military has degraded.

And no we do not care that you have nukes. Trump's golden dome will protect us along with Jesus.

This is one of them.

Best and brightest.

Some people don't like it when you point out the folly of their ways.

I don't think you understand. I am in fact legally obligated to report any such attempts to my employer. I am in fact legally prohibited from providing my credentials to a prospective landlord. I could in fact be fined a whole lot of money and terminated and possibly even subjected to additional legal proceedings if I were to do so. There is no changing my life involved here. This is my life right now..

That's what the porn bans are all about. They are already talking about going after vpns next.

And as usual not a peep from the freedom caucus crowd. The only freedom they care about is the freedom to buy guns. Everything else can get negotiated away in exchange for whatever moral panic has their knickers in a twist this month.

Most outsourced companies including majors like ADP work with SSO or federated credentials.

Who cares? If it only takes 30 hours to make a new one you don't need to maintain the old one ;-)

Learning what? Learning how to kick the can down the road for 30 years while providing no meaningful improvements in the interim? All the while the countries most committed to nuclear projects happen to be the ones most politically aligned to Russia (fun fact, Europe just went through an energy crisis due to dependence on other nations, also fun fact Europe has no meaningful uranium reserves).

This isn't even a global warming issue. The fundamental problem with your post is that it repeats the fucked up gas policy of the the past 30 years that emboldened a dictator and caused chaos on the continent.

This isn't learning. The ones who learned are those major nuclear powers who themselves realise there's huge risk to expanding nuclear.

The current owners of EA are simply wondering how they can start doing that themselves. I mean we're talking about a company that literally is selling you the same game every year for an ever inflated price while providing nothing in return.

Finally we'll also have a play area bigger than the tiny box the previous Sim City game provided. Unfortunately it can only be expanded in one linear direction.

It's not. Concerning would be putting someone competent in charge who is then builds up EA into a proper functioning company rather than the dying shell it currently is, and then having that company controlled by the Saudis. The sooner this moron can kill EA the better.

On what basis do you tow the vehicle? Mention the specific law that allows it to be towed. Note the vehicle is registered and has a permit to drive without a driver. I certainly agree something needs to be done, but we do NOT want police making up non-existent laws on the spot.

Does Waymo go in the first name or last name of the citation? The problem is usually one of paperwork and system design. Police doing traffic stops basically have no way of fining a company. Companies aren't liable for traffic infractions, individuals are. It is very likely that the police had no way of figuring out how to do this, and the legal system had no way of coping with a car that had no driver.

You see similar quirks all over the world for all sorts of insane reasons. For example:
Germany - There's no legal way to implement averaging speed cameras since the tracking and recording of an illegal action can for privacy purposes only take place after an illegal action has been recorded, and you can't record the illegal action without tracking the vehicle.
Netherlands - There's no legal way for your license to be suspended for speeding through a speed camera since it is the vehicle not the driver which was recorded. On the other hand if the police pull you over then your license may be suspended above 35km/h over the limit.

One of the problems with your thinking seems to be the assumption that a PE is somehow an infallible logical being that certifies correctness. The reality couldn't be further from the truth. A large portion of engineering is based on assumptions, good practices, and general design cases. Simply having a PE drop their signature on something won't prevent a death or injury, and it is insanely unlikely that the PE would face any practical consequences if the code they signed off actually did kill someone providing they can show they've done any kind of reasonable diligence and that their assumptions make sense.

Additionally all engineering assumes eventual failure or failure under certain conditions. Nothing is designed with zero failure in mind. The engineer in question can simply point to Waymo's track record which is astonishingly excellent compared to human drivers as a defence of his professional decision to sign off on the code.

I am a PE, and I like that you think so highly of my profession, but please don't worship us like infallible gods that will solve everything through our amazing masters degrees.
