It is important to be registered if you are going to be a developer in the Apple ecosystem. It isn't enough to put out good code and quality software products. Ultimately you need to work completely within the boundaries of the Walled Garden. Where the Apple organization can shepherd your efforts and make sure you are one of their people.
To government agents, it doesn't matter that Kaspersky isn't aiding the Russian government. His company needs to be in the pocket of the US government or they will destroy it. Entities in cybersecurity that are independent of government control and manipulation are defacto considered bad. Just as bad as entities working for Russia.
When you close a browser tab on Slashdot there is even a spinner widget of some sort at the screen bottom now, so the scripting even responds to the user manually closing a tab. That's a little eerie because I specifically close a tab to not iteract with a page anymore. It's not as bad as pages that throw pleading popups when you try to close, of course.
Mixed bag situation. Before, it was home town store owner. Upper middle class family in small town charging outrageous prices. It was a boon to the rest of the people when Walmart came in and drove down the cost of living.
So you are saying China should by edict mandate a "Great Leap Forward" in automotive design? Sounds good. You can' t make an omelette without breaking eggs, after all.
Or from unicorns running on treadmills. Unfortunately, a ton of coal needs to be burned to produce each 30 kilograms of unicorn food. The unicorn glen can only provide grazing space for a few of the mythical beasts.
I would say it's the dudes with gas chainsaws schooling the little lady who bought an electric chainsaw and a 25 foot extension cord. They're gonna be out in that 200 acre woods all afternoon cutting. Little lady will trim her pear tree.
So EVs don't 'refueling down along the side of the road' if they run out of energy?
And you say when it does happen, I can't pull the one gallon tank out of the trunk and hitch a ride a few miles to get enough fuel back to it to reach a refueling station?
And if I want to take it to the track I'm going to have to stop every 45 minutes to spend a half hour refueling it? (how long will the line at the supercharger adjacent to the track be?)
There are so many considerations the the starry eyed on a blog need to factor in and don't. I'm sorry that it seems like trolling, but it's so easy to find factors that are being actively ignored.
It isn't just power density, either. There is the challenge of 'refueling rate to deal with. In a way that Slashdot denizen can probably relate to, an analogy to a USB flash drive could be applied. You can get a cheap largish, i.e. 128gb flash drives that are USB 2 for not very much. It will have a slow transfer rate, so getting data onto it is a daunting challenge. It seems like a lot of storage but it takes 40 minutes to transfer 128gb of data to it.
We could call it 'refueling bandwidth.' For short daily trips, it's the equivalent of moving little files of a few hundred megabytes around. The transfer rate is dismal compared to a rotating or flash drive that connects by PCI-E or even fast IDE.
Slashdot Mirror
In the same speech where he warned about the Military-Industrial complex, Eisenhower warned about the Scientific-Technological elite.
The real game you play is 'uptime' and the leaderboard is 'top', amirite?
Yer a real operator, son. We are very impressed.
It's like going onto a Ferrari form and telling everybody only your kid brother "needs" one.

Apple is sort of creepy that way.

You're the guy in the break room at work who always brings up politics. Nobody likes it when you are around.
Is it too late? I suppose you need to make it interesting enough that people will install it.

We had Katz for awhile. I hope he wasn't getting paid though.
Please don't encourage revolutionary behavior. It's revolting to do so.
Monorail!
Price a 2x4x8 of black walnut. I assume the 8 was 8 feet. Maybe seventy is a little high, but non-framing lumber is not inexpensive.
Why the hyperbolic anger???
There is a link at the bottom of the page to switch between mobile and desktop. Both have aspects of terribleness on a phone.

It goes in cycles. Always has, always will.
Amazon will finish it.
The only people who like America are the most skilled and educated who strive to emigrate there.

"Can't we just clad up those ugly 1970s high-rises at a low cost and make the whole city more visually attractive?"

Almost all the electricity in China comes from burning coal.
Shitty consumer devices, you are correct. That's why Walmart is filled with 'made in China.'
