Maybe Scott McNealy was a prophet

"You have zero privacy anyway. Get over it." - McNealy, 1999

You can't even enforce that 1000 ft rule over congested airspace with manned aircraft. What makes you think you can stop it with drones? 1K ft is the FAA minimum for congested areas, and it drops to 500ft in less congested areas.

The best you can hope for is 500ft as the crow flies, and then a controlled vertical drop in front of the target residence.

Politicians? Try college faculty administrations. No publish, no tenure. That goes whether the researcher or the school is getting a government grant or not. This is an academic culture problem, not a political problem.

Enrico Fermi was a great man that accomplished more in his lifetime than you would in 100 lifetimes. Fuck off, troll.

A series of tubes.

Their real estate is.

You just described pretty much every large corporation. Microsoft certainly isn't unique in this.

Nope. Trump won because of people like you. People like you insisting that others had to be "brainwashed" by Fox or some other source for voting and choosing the way they do. As long as you guys act like assholes and scream that those other people are "brainwashed", you're only going to drive more people to them. Nobody under 30 watches Fox, and yet Gen Z is shifting to the Right. Now, you can find another shadowy conspiracy to account for this, or you can accept that maybe, just maybe, people vote the way they do because they want to, because they have their own sense of right and wrong and they follow it.

This is why I hate the whole "best interests" argument. "I just don't understand why these people vote against their interests". Well, that's because people that say this don't really give a shit about their interests. People decide what their own "best interests" are, thank you, and then vote for them. No one else gets a say on that process. What they really mean is "Fuck those people for not voting in MY preferences".

"From the people that brought you DrKoop.com, comes a new service for your dog..."

Yup. Fire up the bulldozers and just push it into Turtle Bay. Build apartments or a parking deck in its place.

The argument seems to be that if you can get your work done in four days instead of five then it should be a no-brainer. But that just sounds like an admission that you're not spending as much time working each day as claimed.

This stuff has the potential to backfire on the people pushing it, with owners and managers thinking "If we went to four day weeks with no loss of production, then maybe we're employing too many people".

It did well domestic business, but stunk it up in China, and the rest of Asia doesn't look too good either. The only foreign market that's really putting in good numbers is Latin America. Since the domestic market is doing better than expected, it'll make money. But with the way Asia is playing out, it won't make the kind of money that Warner Brothers was hoping for.

Hollywood has been relying on Asia for profitability on multi-million dollar CGI epics for a couple of decades now. They may have to adjust their business model.

HR: "We're doing a RIF, and unfortunately, we're going to have to let you go".

Worker: "What am I going to do?"

HR: "Learn to co... oh, fuck, I'm so sorry".

For the women that DO want to have children it's certainly an increasing problem.
