But the same can be said for regular old voting. As soon as you drop your ballot in the ballot box, you give up all control over your ballot. Whoever ends up counting, moving, or recounting your ballot could change your vote, throw out your

Also the new MacBook and MacBook Pros. The trackpad feels exactly like the old one, but you can just keep pushing it and get a second click. It's really neat and I can't wait until El Capitan and for more apps to take advantage of

You don't need to be making $150k in Chicago to be doing better than Bay Area developers. It seems like it's not uncommon for junior level developers to make $75k in Chicago, but 1-bedroom apartments only cost somewhere between $1

Unless we have a huge breakthrough in physics; one in which almost all our previous knowledge is proved wrong, you can't transmit information with quantum entanglement. Doing so violates relativity. Now maybe you can make a wormhole or

I've had a chip in my card for many years now, but that's probably because it's a "travel" card and it's there so that you can use it abroad. All new replacement cards I've received in the past year or so
