Fort Collins and Colorado Springs are both part of a much larger tech corridor across Colorado; however, Denver is a distinct self-sufficient subset.

the capitalist class has always been an intellectual one. The labor class is dying; I don't think this indicates a higher premium on intelligence. If anything, this indicates a lower value than before as people take intelligence for gr

Does the Chip and Pin really afford that much protection? Surely it doesn't help with the underlying payment network, i.e. internet payments. The only thing that would really help here would be something like a credit card 2fa required

If there are N implementations, there are N times more chance for a security vulnerability. Roughly, anyway. I don't think the reference material matters as much as the rigor that goes into defining it.

This kind of ban only makes sense with dense electrical and infrastructure penetration. Good luck convincing people in the country to give up four wheel drive and switch to a vehicle where fuel cannot be stashed.

Well, long term this may be healthy for the economy and unemployment. Hardly polite conversation, but this allows infrastructure upgrades on a massive scale, which implies employment of many and an increased cash flow for the region.

No, Longhorn is the codename for Vista; it was Blackcomb (that eventually became Windows 7) that was the original goal that was punted.

I find Google Now to be far more useful than e.g. Facebook "recommendations", which are basically ads.

Isis isn't just a group of terrorists, it's symptomatic of anti-western sentiment. Even (especially?) if we kill all of them, that's not going away.

Scala doesn't have anything like this where the query is compiled monadically before execution, although the data structures do expose excellent ways to chain functional combinators. Squeryl (and there's a similar competitor) impl

The disposable key pair IS an identity in this case. I dunno about the legal end, but it's hardly the same as giving a name to a barista.

It was still a gamble where the outcome was entirely unexpected. They were both wrong about their expectations: finding the indes, or finding nothing and running out of resources.

Sure. But the bet on finding something paid off when others would not have made the journey. The outcome was something nobody expected. They were both wrong.

Both sides were wrong. An earth of a larger size doesn't imply a lack of land, just the lack of assurance.

That's gotta be a bigger project in terms of man power and money than anyone has invested in self driving cars already. We need more testing to even establish the problem areas and figure out how to actively solve them.

It has been a long time since it exclusively referred to African Americans (I believe the term predates the us itself). For instance, the racial integrity act of 1924 specifically defines native Americans as colored; similarly, the Jim Crow
