Government. More specifically, get contracted by the State Department in Wash DC. No lies when I say, very low accountability and lots of pay.
Think 86$ an hour when jobs that are supposed to take you 2 days to do are setup for 2 weeks of work. So lots of doing nothing.
Speaking from experience. Its a lazy persons wet dream.
I would suggest posting this under the HN clone SwintonReport.com...
You joke about it, but with the betterment of facial recognition and Facebook, just imagine 1 scenario...
All those folks who share selfies of themselves anonymously online both of them clothed and unclothed, we are starting to see the ability to pinpoint who they are, just because they keep an online facebook.
Its the HN Gods.. I tried to ask the question a few hours ago and it got killed..

EDIT
That link is DELETED. Here was the TEXT.
I tried to submit a NSA* story a couple days ago about how the N S A(1) is snooping on iPhone that directly related to the FSF article(2) today while connecting it to something I read on HN 2 years ago...(3). While it isn't startup news, it does directly show and relate to EFF that the iPhone can't be a trusted platform. It seems that you directly removed the ability to add comments as well as see articles that are related to any N S A information. Why? Are you trying to control HN and dictate the direction?

You should expect to see this more often than not. Cities in Florida are going through the same things, but just haven't defaulted yet. Expect it. Its going to be the norm.
most of this is due to the archaic pension system.
Do you really trust the supreme court these days? 7 men and women designed to decide the fate of our country?
also, the supreme court has no say in this. Its the fisa court....
This.
I totally disagree on slowing down his writing.
think about the federalist papers for a second. Someone needed to wrote them to convince a nation about our beloved constitution. Since all eyes are on Snowden, he has the best ability to sway many minds about what he believes and what I believe to be right.
And I thought my hosting was bloody cheap... Jeez
If I could upvote you 100 times I would.
I'll believe it when I see it. Oh wait, its top secret. I guess I'll never believe it or even trust the government on this matter.
He should try adding AsParrallel() to the expression. I bet there will be a drastic speed up as long as he has a multi core.
Its moving in that direction... Msoft, Apple and Polaroid are all going the way of brick and mortar.
Can anyone answer me why specifically should I use F#?
This has nothing to do with prices or wrongful chosen clouds. This has everything to do with Amazon encroaching on IBMs old business with the government.
Boeing did the same thing and used the same excuse when they didn't want Airbus coming into the United States and encroaching on its territory.
Mark my works. IBM will win because they have deep pockets with the politicians. That's who will decide this fate, not the CIA.
Humble ex employee of Northrop Grumman on the front line of the Airbus situation.
Do you really believe that after all the political lies we as a country have heard in the past 3 months, any thing a person on the hill says would carry more than 2 cents?
If I were Snowden and if I had that power. I would first release all this information to the public. And then to hear what the 3 letters had to say. And then, release emails for 1 month of each and every Senator and representative. That in it self I believe would have caused the most change.
completely theoretical, but would have caused the most change for the better.
Love how you put that... Long hot summer.
