Eh, Apple is like the company that moved their supply chain overseas. And essentially made industries, and Tim Cook CEO, because of it.
Being educated isn't really representative of Hacker News. There are very clear dynamics here where being more knowledgeable makes the discussions irrelevant. There are generally two ways of doing hard things. Either…
You don't need the same space. That is the point. Yes, if I lived in a suburb I would also want more space because everything else would be harder to do. I'm not arguing against their assumption. I said most, that isn't…

> Can I stiff my Uber driver if I don't agree with their politics? That would be an example of the opposite. Uber is pretty much a tracker (peer-to-peer platform) for unlicensed taxis.
Surely you have already seen it, but for anyone else that finds this interesting there is "No Maps for These Territories". A close to 25 year old documentary with Gibson talking that is still enjoyable. Can be found on…
