At least in the short term, I think the economics will prevent stores from using this for marketing data. Operating these drones has to very, very expensive and I don't think knowi…

When the shopping cart was first introduced to grocery stores, nobody wanted to use it. People preferred to continue lugging around heavy baskets rather than push a cart. Actors ha…

> Forget comparing old builds to new builds Why? It's extremely relevant. > In the 80s you could get a 15-20 year mortgage at 20% 20% was the rate for 30 year mortgage in the 1980s…

Only looking at home prices compared to salary is very misleading because it doesn't account for changes in interest rates. Mortgages were almost 20% interest in the 80s. Cheaper d…

Correct but theyre saying the headlines are wrong because the statistic that they use is not accounting for people that are reluctantly part time, but they're not mentioning that t…

Honestly, this is a completely bogus interview that is at best, misleading, and at worst, outright lies. > Well, all that is absolutely true, but sadly it’s even worse than that. W…

What is the value in listening to an educational podcast if I cannot be certain that the material is factual?

I'm not, alcohol kills 200,000 Americans every year.

No, but I would if they sold bathroom cameras. The issue isn't of quality, it's an issue of legality

Nothing I said disagrees with your statement. In fact, I specifically said they could do better. My point is that it's wrong to say google drive is easy to build or maintain.

I'm not defending google or saying they haven't done anything wrong here, but it is insanely hard to make Google drive. I very much doubt Google drive has a staff of any where near…
