S.1084 is worded like they are going to use it to pull a peasent off the street for threats of violence. That is it's worded so vague that it applies to anything pretty much giving the prosecutor complete discretion over who to prosecute.
I'll keep that in mind because I actually prefer learning from books. What's really interesting is that the rules of the system come from nature itself. So by knowing how a computer system works from the point at which its components interact with the physical world to how the software works would give you some kind of technical mastery that has to be good for something.

I've been a C# dev for long enough that I feel like I've plateued.Meanwhile Im in love with microchips like the esp8266. I see dirt cheap intelligent single purpose devices opening up a lot of new opportunities.But how do you compare a good C# developer to an electrical engineer? Would it be a step up or just a step sideways?When I say electrical engineer what I mean is the person who designs...
Mentorship after a successful Kickstarter.
Do most VC companies provide training or mentorship like YC? What if you're a sole engineer with a good product and a patent but no idea how to turn that into a business. Do you even need venture capital if you're just selling one thing? I don't even know how to spend $1000.
I just want to point out you guys are talking about 2016 Google, not 2020, 2024, etc.

I suck at coding but I'm way above average. I've seen what people do. So I suck but most developers I've worked with suck a lot worse.
At the point when Google has heard your conversations, knows your demographics, likes and dislikes, and can control your actions and thoughts through search and news feed manipulation you cease to be an autonamous person and become nothing but a neuron for Google.
Having heard about this while never using it and having used other "hot" frameworks that Microsoft gave up on (Xamarin) and having checked out hyped products that turned out to be underdeveloped (windows iot) I have doubts about how good their chat framework is since the future didn't turn out to be all about chat bots like they said it would.
Have you used it? What do you think? Be honest.
If you go with AWS (like I did) and you forget to turn it off (like I did) they won't hesitate to charge you full price. For me that was a $700 surprise. Then you will discover how impossible talking to anyone at AWS is without a paid support plan. Two or three months later you may get your money back if you suffer through enough hours on hold with them after fighting through the non-paid customer service channels.
So don't use AWS please, for me.
You could try Parsec. They are specifically for gaming PCs. Sadly, if I'm remembering right they use AWS.
Total time? Very little. Critical time when I just need to be able to use a website. 50%.
Are attacks on home networks really an issue? I mean what percent of home networks have actually seen an intrusion? Does anyone know?
