I decry the legitimacy of my coffee table, but my toe still hurts when I kick it.
I see some iPhone Pro Max buyers getting this simply because they paid around $1200 last year, then after trade-in ($885 for a 17PM), they could get into the Duo for $1,200. If someone had that amount of disposable…
If this proves to be a viable business strategy, then verisign could equally use it to re-sell google.com, ycombinator.com, etc. to the highest bidder.
I think your objection is fairly clear in terms of 1) you point out the difference between e.g. standing with a sign vs. more expensive options, and 2) you say "right to free assembly was to give richer corporations…
I don't understand what you're getting at. If it's okay for Corporations can run ads themselves, then your objection isn't to wealthy people supporting candidates or even them doing so secretly, but... only when the…
Yes and no. No, state's cannot e.g. discriminate on the basis of race by allowing corporations only composed of certain races. States also cannot infringe on the right to assemble or speak, by prohibiting people from…
I wouldn't say CU enabled it. CU didn't address the secrecy of corporate forms. That wasn't at issue. CU was only about ~"Can people use money with their friends to support a candidate." To say that repealing CU is the…
Citizens United is a very sound ruling. People have a right to support candidates > they can print a sign and stand on a street corner > printing signs costs money > people have a right to spend money supporting…
The Apple chips are quick when the model is "warm" on your second and subsequent requests. It's also quick if you don't have a harness, and feed "Hi, how are you?" as a prompt. However, a lot of common usage is to have…
Comcast is an ISP and Cable Television provider, with a terrible reputation. When I cancelled my service when them I had to mail the modem back to them. I did it UPS shipping with tracking, because I know not to trust…
It's a general principle of agency law, but one example would be Skinner v. Railway Labor Executives' Assn., 489 US 602 (1989) involving a drug test performed by ostensibly private railroads, but pursuant to federal…
Ironically, those questions are more legal than Flock's current usage. The vast majority of Flock's revenue comes from government, and government cannot hire a 3rd party to do what would be unconstitutional if done…
And... now it's a vulnerability that OpenAI has for your system, which you paid to provide.
England imposed the institution of slavery on the American colonies by means of their regulation of economic affairs. It didn't occur spontaneously from market dynamics, but was specifically provided for by (their) laws.
I don't think there's much meaning in saying the Soviets outlawed capitalism. Capital continued to exist and there continued to be people who decided what got built and who received them. To me, that's private…
People talk about capitalism as if there is a choice; as if Gravity might not pull us towards earth.
The purpose of "the news" is to confuse and delude. There's an argument to be made for less-frequent use, but staying away on Mon - Fri doesn't do much good if you open a paper on Sunday morning and believe what you're…
AI is particularly infectious among C suites, because AI is great at spewing words. A substantial portion of folks in those positions are there because of family connections, existing wealth, etc., and their only…
Raising prices allows Apple to reduce demand, possibly creating some flexibility in the durations of the current contracts.

I think this is the opposite of missing the forest for the trees. It's not a legal fiction that ~"corporations are people." Corporations are literally individual owners, managers, employees, etc. with various personal…
Time helps to some degree, but I've worked with professionals who've earned a living for 30+ years, enjoy strong reputations among their peers, and who absolutely do not know what they're doing.
The scientific method is generally to ask a question, and test it, before randomly collected evidence makes the obvious undeniable.
We hear about how dealing with liquid oxygen is hard. I don't know that we hear about industrial sabotage.
