You still need a base power plant and few others for controlling the amount of energy in the system. Using only renewable is kind o hard. If we can figure out a way to store energy the way we can access it very quickly with arbitrary output, we could move on to renewables exclusively.

I see, so prior to this random() and entropy() addition to Linux nobody could ever write any security related application. Yes, this is true. We should change the pull request to "Enable security for Linux, 2014". God, never too late...

"The vast majority of programmers lack the knowledge, skill, or both required to correctly implement anything."

Agreed.

As opposed to have everybody implement his/her own random()/entropy().

NSA likes this. Only one random and entropy code to compromise.

I am arguing that for an average person there is no difference between 3% growth and 15% growth, but for mother Earth there is and I don't care about corporate CEOs (less than 1% of the global population) and the Rokafela bros. Sorry for my ignorance but I think an average person and our planet is more important than few fat bankers and their CEO friends. I know, I am a bad person.

Lat time I checked Google was not an ISP for consumers. They do this to generate more competition against the ISPs forming a trust against competition.

Example:

"The Justice Department has reached out to the companies as it investigates whether the cable-industry merger (CMCSA:US) is anticompetitive, said the people, who asked not to be named because the review isn’t public."

Thanks to Goole Comcast started to do higher speed internet, it was shocking to me how customers were not interested in it but right after the Google offering the very same customers went totally mad and they suddenly needed faster internet. Who understands these very complicated matters anyways?!?!

You are right. In US there is no good healthcare and this is the most expensive system that provides the least value for an _average_ individual.

Education, same.

This is what should be exported to the rest of the world? Who are you kidding? The only thing USA could export is guns and dirt bikes.

"European economy has barely grown for 15 years and these agreements are a welcome development."

Good, keep it this way. We don't need more economic growth because the 90% of it goes straight to billionaires and the average worker don't benefit from it anyways. What we really need is an economy that does not rely on growth and mass production of toxic waste.

This is one very good argument against the EU in its entirety. We don't need crooked politicians from a random country making decisions for the rest of the EU. It seems like things are going terribly wrong since this project started. The only gain we got is a higher dose of cocaine in the urine of the EU parliament members.
