Seems really strange to me to reject the notion of 'reading between the lines' when we know the motives of the company's leadership. We know they work with Google, we know they are interested in driving views and…
I must be lucky. I'm still rocking a pixel 3. It's got multiple breaks in the screen, the back of the phone is pretty cracked, the camera cover is completed smashed out. Hey somehow this thing still works and takes ok…
Maybe I'm an idiot, but I think the expanded AI capabilities are the biggest step forward for phones in like 5+ years or more. But I'm someone who is still using a pixel 3, so maybe I'm just trying to make myself feel…
True of the US yes. Equally? I probably wouldn't say that. The US govt doesn't have the same control over media the the Chinese govt has. So they have to work harder to keep things out of public view. The US also has to…
There is ample evidence of China's intentions and capability to install backdoors. Everything made in China or a heavily influenced Chinese country should be assumed to be compromised, even if 'proven' otherwise.…
Requirements are hard, but ... you don't need bug reports to implement bug free requirements. So the only value the bugs would have is if they are for behaviors that should be documented as requirements.
Energy cost has long been viewed as a means to constrain consumption. This new approach seems to undermine that approach given the reduced cost per volume. If I'm paying entirely based on volume, then making my home…
Socialism, despite what republicans want you think isn't any govt service. If that is true then the only socialism free model would be anarchy.
That last bit about the media is both true and perhaps uncomfortable for Democrats today whose political will aligns with the media narratives.
Yeah, that office manager probably knew who would be getting the tickets in advance.
Well, I can't think of any media articles talking about, specifically state level, censorship efforts from the left. But the Whitehouse was recently told by courts it couldn't communicate with social media companies…
You didn't play monopoly much growing I guess. Winning in capitalism is all about securing position. From there, leveraging profits isnt hard.
It's all just a coincidence that this investigator tried to investigate Burisma for corruption, and Burisma attempted to buy access to Joe Biden through Hunter Biden, who was only selling the 'appearance' of access.…
The corruption is just as obvious as the denials. He bragged about leveraging foreign aid to get the lead investigator fired as part of an effort to fight corruption in the Ukraine. Think about. If your trying to fight…

We only know what the NSA does because a person who leaked highly confidential documents and is now a refuge for the crime of showing the world what the US govt does in secret. Do you really think the UK govt, or any…
You are bunching dark matter 'deniers' in with anti vaxxers? Really? Also there really isn't much of an anti vaxxers movement if you separate people opposed to vaccine mandates vs people who think vaccines are unsafe.…
Did you hear about Parler? AWS cancelled their service for violating their terms of service. This was allegedly because Jan 6th was planned on the platform, but it turns out Jan 6th was mostly planned on Facebook. Also…
Lots of empty / underutilized offices right now. So costs should be down, which might rip the equation. Recruiting is still a challenge for top positions, an office might be a nice way to attract talent on the cheap.
In terms of total global heat content sure. In terms of surface ocean temp, I'm not so sure you have a point. It's a pretty indirect path for greenhouse gasses to heat the ocean, and they can't push the water above the…
Maybe the question should be, what is the normal summer high for these buoys? Headlines make it sound like a significant departure, but I don't think I have seen any article talking what the normal summertime high temps…
I think any reform to the process such as democracy vouchers are just a shell game. Ok, that money can only go to candidates or issue campaigns. Meanwhile other money will be spent in multitude of ways to shape public…
Well, the brides aren't actually legal, they are just very difficult to prove. Unless we want to make political donations illegal, how do you prove a donation to a politician as a bride instead of support for the…
Well, it's a more limited scope then attempting to address every greedy person on earth with enough money to lobby. Potential solutions could include direct democracy, line item veto, or maybe both? I don't claim to…
Greedy CEO, greedy business owner, rich Nazis, foreign govt, there is no reason to focus the message on the variable in the room. The problem is greedy lawmakers who accept brides, full stop. Fix the lawmakers and you…
