Something unrelated to product quality and entirely appearance in an Apple thread, color me surprised.

My field is propped up by various governments. My paycheck is a combination of sales, bailouts, and loan forgiveness. I also make lots of money. Should I be in favor of cronyism? I…

>large numbers of N95 masks Certifications take time, masks are simple, testing takes time. This is a government problem, not a manufacturing problem.

I think consumers and companies should go their best to shift to them too. Most of our digital world is built on free code not proprietary crap.

I'm going to name drop things I don't know about and might be irrelevant Data/network/transport/session layer can be detected through TCP? So you need to fudge a few digits somehow…

After Google screwed up my music transfer from Google Play to YouTube Music, I'm not using any new Google services. And it's not like there is any customer service to fix their own…

I'm a believer that these kind of issues should be solved at the consumers end. I haven't built a web browser, but I built a bot and it's somewhat doable to avoid getting tracked. …

Ahh that was it. But yep that's how we bypassed it. I think I bought 6 songs before I found a better alternative. Reminds me how I had 1 iphone (6) and would never get one again.

This is important because Tesla is a consumer facing company.

>SpaceX isn't going to go public, possibly because it's a very long-term endeavor, and his goal is to go to Mars, not make huge profits. I think it's due to the nature of being a m…

Definition of war has changed since nukes and the cold war.

The network effect is a billion dollar value.

This is probably true for all billion dollar tech companies. Imagine how much dirt Facebook, Apple and Microsoft has.

Worse GM may be a zombie company. Your taxes will always be supporting their business.

I could have taken care of genghis and stopped. I could have left Gandhi alone. I take responsibility.

Meh, I have that in person charisma. I get a bit panicky online because you can't see someone's face. I don't know if I'm talking too much or if they are bored. Online I'm quick/sh…

My biggest shock with Civ was funding out that I was a military dictator at heart. I started with hope of a cultural victory. I gave away technology and trade at a disadvantage to …

Civ5 didn't allow unit stacking which left artillery vulnerable. I couldn't get into it. Civ 4 4ever

Theoretically. Think about websites that have every reason to stop you from scraping. It's not reasonable to disect their huge obfuscated js code. So headless doesn't really work.

I love this. I might try it. It doesn't scale, but that's okay for my project.
