If infra for food transportation does not exist then the point is even more valid. If I have village where no food can be imported and limited amount of agricultural land. If I grow khat how am I going to feed my family…
> growing khat is more lucrative than growing food Could you please clarify more ? I think I am missing something. If khat pays more wouldn't it mean you can sell khat and buy food with that money ?
The only issue I have with Tesla's Autopilot is the naming. It gives a false impression. It is more like driver assist rather than autopilot.

This is not a big deal, this gives UK freedom to make their own laws more suitable to UK rather than laws made in Brussels. In a twist to the headline we could also say tech companies around the world are in a better…
May be I missed it but can someone tell me what was the crime the company was committing ? Almost any company will have defensive strategies such as stalling LEOs and Warrants in whatever way they can. A lot of this is…

Either ways my recommendation is to make a informed choice of NIMBY vs YIMBY. It appeared so far that NIMBY is winning and large number of people support NIMBY. This need not be because all these are evil people who…

It is a DoJ allegation and that department has lower credibility than gas station sushi. It is perfectly possible that as Chinese companies continue to prove to be more competitive across the tech value chain USA will…
They could fix their search to begin with. It is pretty pathetic.
The reason why I cancelled SiriusXM was because of lack of diversity. A huge chunk of the channels were the sports channels which I did not care about. Music channels were outright weird and all of them played may be 20…

I recently switched from Macbook Pro to X1 Carbon. I would have loved to have Ubuntu installed on it and everything working. I would happily pay USD 100 to Levono or someone else to install a clean Ubuntu image.…
Thank you UK. I hope UK does a comprehensive review of all EU regulations have made it harder to do business in UK. Hope things like GDPR goes away too. Other nations too should learn from UK here.
I am not an American. Also, EU is anything but convenience in trade. -It had been a peaceful night in Europe where all the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are above average. Martin woke up…
That is unfair. Republic and India tv appears to be pro government where as NDTV and other appears to be anti-BJP channels.
As an Indian I would like to point out that NC has not authority to talk about India. He should rather focus on his home country instead of extending his colonial mindset to India.
These sort of decisions should not be made by large centralized agencies like EU. I would rather see these decisions being left to the individual countries and even better to local bodies. May be London wants to take a…
All of this eventually boils down to skin in the game. What price does government and its minions pay for the surveillance ? If it is too low then those powers will be abused, if it is too high then they will be less…
For that we need to somehow agree that tracking is not just a legitimate business practice but also a desirable one (as long as the individual has consented). But these discussions will soon go into "how easy it should…
There is nothing wrong in being ignorant if the efforts to get rid of that ignorance outweigh the benefits for most users. My mother spends 15 minutes on internet talking to me and watching youtube. She does not care if…
