Let's not forget that there are humans making these decisions, and their names are...?

Like the same way sidewalks are separated by a curb? What a profound analysis. Of course they do, even a 5 year old would agree with this.

That would be viewed as undermining the trillion dollar higher education business. We need universal higher education. What if the next Einstein couldn't afford college?

Imagine the software and infrastructure required to coordinate these requests. If I am a local LEO do I just log into a web app, enter the social of the person I want to stalk, the get notified when the happen to be searched?

You seem to be making the case that because the commenter did not offer provenance that none exists. Is my understanding of your point correct?

Thank you, the key here is Total Cost of Ownership. Can I spend 30k and not replace a thing of 120k, or spend 18k and spend 2k per year on random fixes and deal with things not working. How much time do I spend without my car while these things are being fixed? Do I get stranded on the highway once a year ? Can I hop in and drive across the country? Does it have knee airbags? Does the 200k Honda compare with modern cars on the crash test?

I don't agree with this but it seems like a functional method to fund research. Are we seeing breakthroughs from other countries via the traditional private funding/patent system?

It undermines protections but allows execution of projects that wouldn't otherwise be possible for such a small budget. My company would not exist without the Fiverr contractors i paid early on, hiring devs was a no go. My fiverr devs are efficient and they all negotiate their rate. My specs are clean and actually complete enough to deliver working code that I hook into my existing platform. I'm pretty sure the fiverr devs I pay are making more per hour than they would full time. One difference is that they probable dont have time to bullshit with coworkers or surf reddit half the day.

Seems like an oversight that nobody thought to get proficient with erlang. As someone who has started learning it, this seems like the obvious choice.
