It's more like scientists making mild suggestions requiring further research and the media taking that as "Rocket launches are going to cause permanent overcast skies within 20 years!!!"
They should have no problem. I've worked for a bunch of engineering companies and they seem to have no problem hiring people with barely any English skills.
True. Public transit is great for commuting, maybe getting to and from big events, and for low income people completely familiar with lots of routes. It's practically useless for tourists.
Where I'm from, Alberta, taxis are the worst for speed - but on the other end. They must be tracked because they won't go the slightest above the speed limit which actually makes them dangerous. They don't go with the flow, and have tons of experience reinforcing their terrible driving habits. They've never heard of blind spots, stopping for pedestrians, signalling, and overall defensive driving. Now those are the ones 'trained' to drive people around. There's no way a service that pairs random people together will ever take off until the roads are safer overall.
Just because Apple is big and rich doesn't mean they can't do something dumb. I've seen firsthand how some super rich companies can screw up contracts and it wouldn't surprise me if Apple had the same issues in their ability to choose partners. They might be completely blinded by a single unimportant factor, like a slightly higher cost, and fail to take in the whole picture.
Same here. My 10+ year old hp b+w laser was ready to be put to pasture so I started researching inkjets and colour lasers. Settled on a colour laser and it rocks. It's fast, high quality, and reliable. Can't quite do photos like an inkjet, and the pages can curl a bit from the heat. If I need to print a photo there are so many commercial services to use now.
Auto manufacturers have had decades to standardize controls like windshield wipers and they haven't managed it. They're different in each brand of car, causing drivers to stare at the stick trying to figure out if an up arrow means lift up, twist a knob up, or push the stick towards the dash. They haven't standardized radio controls, AC controls, or anything else other than pedals and turn signals. Even trying to adjust the seat in an unfamiliar car is a pain. A handle that tilts the seatback in one car will actually lift or lower the entire seat in another. The chances of something complex like computer interfaces being standardized is a pipe dream.
There's probably only a hundred or so people that are able to successfully edit Wikipedia pages, and they're ok with the code. Everyone else gets their edits rolled back without a glance.
While we're on the subject, who came up with the internet rule that no discussion shall take place more than once? That it's old or that it was discussed years ago doesn't mean it isn't relevant today.
So to get sound to go through walls what you do is remove a bunch of pieces of the wall. This is essentially a window, but instead of having it all in one chunk you spread out the area. BRILLIANT!!!
The rule is that you stand trial when you're accused of a crime. He can afford the best blood-sucking lawyers on earth. This whole politically technicality crap just has to stop. It's up there with the "I'm not touching you" game we played as a kid.

Why is there a picture of a red panda with the article? Did some journalist actually think it was a fox?

Forget about faster. It's easier and more comfortable.

Penguins and polar bears together? Seriously?
He's a business owner and he did this in the name of his business. Probably not a good business move but I'm glad he did it because it's pretty funny.
You had some decent logic up to that last part about earthquakes where you just started making shit up.

In a plane you can stare at a touch screen for quite a while without crashing. In a car you have to have your eyes on the road as much as possible.
Custom database applications are expensive and inflexible. Stop trying to tell people what they can't do with a spreadsheet.
I think the movie Cube was about this. You don't know you're part of the problem because you're working on just a tiny piece of it.

"You're at risk!!! Download this scanning tool now to determine your chances of getting pwned." Where have I seen this kind of language before?
As annoying and pitiful as those pleas are he certainly belongs in the internet hall of fame.

Rainbow tables are useless against properly salted passwords. Anyone not using a salt in this day and age is begging to be hacked.

They're already working on the first generation of muttations. Don't say anything incriminating in the presence of talkative birds.
