If you are getting 100's on everything it means you are gaming the spirit of the learning, overfitting the memory. Plop that guy in front of a computer with specs and a deadline and you will learn why grades are not an indicator of success

Some people, (edit) men/women do this so much that I punish the behavior. Instead of then saying "I would rather you not do X" they come up with some cryptic encoded message that leaves you wondering why they said it and what they want. T

How the heck do you BUY a patent and sell licenses to multiple third parties? How does this maintain the spirit of patents where we encourage innovators? Say I want to build a new phone in the shape of a rectangle, black, with beveled edge

What do you expect Bill Gates to do as president? Convince Congress to fix healthcare with a brilliant solution he came up with? It would get crushed because it does not preserve the power of and bribe the powers that be.

Terrorists do not threaten the power of congress. The freedom to share any data you want over the internet does. Digital rights, saving the children, pornography are all just smoke screens for the government to acquire a "thumb of smite"

Pilot stalls the plane out of panic to get out of the storm, ignoring 75 reminders that you are stalling and losing altitude, does nothing to remedy the stall until it is too late. I expect blunders like that from drunk drivers.

Don't forget that the battery has to more or less operate and survive in a temperature range of 50 below zero to 180 degrees. If not, operating it on a cold day in northern Maine, or leaving it in the sun in southern Florida will break it.
