- 831: The First Amendment: Sex, Laws, and Cyberspace
- ... took a swipe at the CDA, which had just cleared the Senate by saying “The Senate's recent passage of a telecommunications bill including Senator Exon's measure criminalizing the distribution of ‘filthy' material over computer networks suggests that the First Amendment's applicability to on-line communications has not been well considered” (80). Judge Cohn decided that the CDA was not explicit or detailed enough for him to abide by ... argue that the material being ruled or legislated on would be First Amendment protected if disseminated in a book or magazine, then there is no rationale for treating it differently on the Internet. Using a computer does not, and should not, make anything illegal that is legal if done without a computer. Wallace and Mangan are strong believers in the First Amendment, and believe that limiting what is on the Internet is a clear violation of the First Amendment. Wallace and Mangan did not just stop ...
- 832: Capital Punishment
- ... in the course of kidnapping. First degree murder is not punishable by death. One who willfully murders a cashier is no less evil then the murderer of a police officer. Both have committed the worst crime. Both should be subjected to the worst possible punishment. That is justice. Standing in the way of that justice, however, are the likes of Rev. Miller, who brim with such pity for criminals that they ... Minnesota, Iowa, and North Dakota. The U.S. has over 1.5 million incarcerated in prisons, by far the largest system in the world, and that does not include those in jail. The tough-on-crime politicians, of course, are elected by promising bigger and better jails for those scum bags. I once heard someone say, "Building jails to lessen crime is like building more cemeteries to prevent AIDS." Prison building is the fastest growing industry in America. In fact, prisons can no longer be called prisons. The politically correct term is correction-industrial complexes. ...
- 833: Death Penalty
- ... penalty is inhumane and should be considered murder. People of this malicious caliber must be dealt with in the same way, an eye for an eye. Putting these criminals to death doesn’t solve the crime that they committed, but it helps the victim’s family and friends to feel a sense of justification for what’s happened to them. Capital Punishment has been part of the criminal justice system since ... is justified.” This means that if the news of an execution changes a potential murderer the death penalty is appropriate act for the situation. The Bible also states that there should be retribution for a crime. The Bible says “whosoever sheds man’s blood, by man shall be shed.” This statement has been interpreted as a divine justification for putting a murderer to death. A very fine example of the death ... the most logical way to punish criminals of vicious crimes. Everyone in the world needs to follows certain laws, and if they are broken, the accused has to pay to price for his or her crime. The sentences might be anywhere from ten to twenty years in prison, but some crimes force the defendant to die for their crime or crimes. Capital punishment is just, and it should stay in ...
- 834: The National Institute of Standards and Technology
- ... the physical and engineering sciences to the development of technology in industry and commerce. It comprises the National Measurement Laboratory, the National Engineering Laboratory, the Institute for Materials Science and Engineering, and the Institute for Computer Sciences and Technology. The NIST promotes the use of precision technology by conducting research and providing centralized services in four broad program areas: basic measurements and standards, materials measurements and standards, technological measurements and standards ... dealing with the broader aspects of the national measurement system. Because of its unique data-gathering functions, the NIST is the principal agent for the development of federal standards for automatic data processing techniques, for computer equipment, and for computer languages. After the name change in 1989, the agency announced that it would soon establish regional manufacturing technology centers to speed the spread of new technology. Software (computer), computer programs; instructions that cause the ...

- 836: The Y2K Problem
- The Y2K Problem!!! What is Y2k? In one sentence, Y2k is "...the inability of computer programs at the year 2000 to interpret the correct century from a recorded or calculated date having only two digits to indicate the year".[Center for Computer Systems Engineering] What does that mean? It means that many of our computer systems, although sensitive to date and time, have been programmed with a piece missing -- the century portion of the date. These systems were created by humans, who are used to dealing with dates in ...
- 837: Neural Networks
- ... example, neural networks have the potential for building computing systems that do not need to be programmed (Wo96). This reflects a radically different approach to computing compared to traditional methods, which involve the development of computer programs. In a computer program, every step that the computer executes is specified in advance by the network. In contrast, neural nets begin with sample inputs and outputs, and learns to provide the correct outputs for each input (Za93). The neural network approach does ...

- 840: Why I Believe In Voluntary Euthanasia
- ... Also, we have to face the fact that the law calls all forms of self-destruction 'suicide.' Let me point out here for those who might not know it that suicide is no longer a crime anywhere in the English-speaking world. (It used to be, and was punishable by giving all the dead person's money and goods to the government.) Attempted suicide is no longer a crime, although under health laws a person can in most states be forcibly placed in a psychiatric hospital for three days for evaluation. But giving assistance in suicide remains a crime, except in the Netherlands in recent times under certain conditions, and it has never been a crime in Switzerland, Germany, Norway and Uruguay. The rest of the world punishes assistance in suicide for both ...
