Well, I'm using the 538 rolling average, so it's at least slightly resistant to both error and movement.
It seems to take at least a week for any change.
The 10-11 threshold seems to be pretty relevant though, it's when generic (midterm) polling starts to break 9% and Republicans start to maybe sort of not rubber stamp everything about Trump. 9% poll lead puts the senate in the realm of possible for the democrats (obviously individual races will have effects, and likely the real life gap will need to be a touch higher, but it starts to look like the realm of typical polling deviation), and the house quite likely (even with typical polling errors against).
Your link has his day one approval at 40, with 42 now (favorables aren't a great measure of approval IMO).
I suspect a significant portion of the 40% are quite into the baiting that's happening. Also, the trade war was/is a notable bump to popularity, so the fact that it moved at all as it escalates is notable.
I have limited hope it may break the ISP monopoly, otherwise I'm fine with the few mbps I got on my phone pre 4g (and really see no need for the 50 I get now).
Especially since I can't stream HD audio, and don't personally download large files on my phone.
Capitalism would have the owners of the airport determining if that was the case or not.
Some airports may run on a daily/hoursly rental (like a hotel) Some may run run on a monthly/yearly/many year lease (like a rental) Others may sell the slots to the current owner with conditions (like Heathrow does, or a condo)
There's benefits to both parties for longer term contracts (for example selling permanent access allows long term planning on the part of airlines, and helps get immediate money for funding the building of an airport, short term renting would be long run more profitable, but less stable, and the middle ground allows for easier medium term budgeting, and more profit than permanent sales, but less than daily).
Why does your capitalism not include these options? would true capitalism for housing only include nightly rentals?
Apple's privacy is also a weekness though. It makes it far harder for their machines to learn (less data to use), and less easy to use information about the requestor to tune the answer.
It'll be interesting to see which model works (more effective but evil (Google) vs less effective and less creepy (Apple).
As a user, thus far I am siding with evil, but it's starting to make me uncomfortable.
Language is an example of when "we've always done it this way, so we should keep doing it this way" holds weight though. Of the words have always been used a way, I don't see how anyone can make an argument that that's not what they mean. Obviously one needs to allow for linguistic shift, but certainky if a word has been used in a way for decades it doesn't make sense to by dictate change its meaning.
I use eBay for pretty regularly (in the hundreds a year range) for a lot of different things. Used blazers are a great buy there with a vibrant market and my size. I just purchased a Wii, I've purchased drug like substances (though they're cracked down and nobody's account is around log enough to be reliable, legal, not research chems, just to clarify), used computer stuff, glassware that's cheap and from China, used video games, medium old computer components (I needed a 10 base 2 connect (or whatever they were called) a few years ago for work, eBay got me one for cheap and fast, same for weird SCSI connectors/terminators for old but expensive hardware.
I haven't found a better market for these things (better meaning price and ease of searching). Sure, it's not as relevant as it used to be, but it has a purpose..
10 billion a year seems like a reasonable revenue stream for them. I often end up there through Google when lookog for something I want, so presumably they're one of the better options for things I'm looking for.
My biggest frustration on OSX (posting to hopefully be corrected) is the lack of copy paste in Finder Windows.
On Windows with explorer and Linix with any file manager I've used, I can select the address bar, copy that text, then paste it into any open or save browser. I use this dozens of times a day, and in OSX, I need to browse my open and closes each and every time (the location changes).
Also, less frequent, but very useful, is being able to type the address into the file management window (for example when I'm browsing a directory tree where multiple levels up the path is a date and I want to look at different versions of the folder I'm in).
And an always on top setting, I miss the hell out of that when using Windows or OSX.
I'm guessing the answer is no they can't do that, since essentially they already do that.
The issue (as I understand it) requires to either: 1) use a bare version (no google apps including app store) 2) have all google apps
I honestly don't see the big deal, there are plenty of devices without the app store available (at least in my tablet shopping), but apparently vendors to be allowed to have the store without Chrome etc. Maybe with Play Services it's becoming a bigger deal though (not having Play Services really limits apps, and maybe it requires the Play Store)
The thing is, there was a significant time where OSX was more of a nuisance than Windows (transition to Intel had significant times when you couldn't be sure what software would run ideally, same for transition to OSX).
Multiple times where print driver broke between versions
Print drivers in general suck on OSX (eg large format Epson and HP printers)
This is more prepress related, but Inability to print to PDF with acrobat distiller is an issue
Lack of GPU accelerated filters in Photoshop was an annoyance
64 but support a year earlier was a pretty big deal too (CS4 on Windows).
Adobe, that one needs, treats Apple as a second class citizen, and has for a long while.
None of these are geek things, they're just works things.
They still seem to have a lot of momentem in the graphic design/print. I don't get it frankly, they're rapidly changing print system leaves them with some annoyances, Adobe was slower to embrace GPU acceleration on them, they lack affordable mid range solutions.
All of that, they still seem to be the more popular option.
NN isn't about protecting other ISPs, it's a recognition of the fact that multiple runs of wire are not going to provide the most efficient solution, and therefore the industry needs regulation (similar to how utilities work).
It's to protect the consumer, since it's not practical to have competition.
I suspect if all prices went up 1% it wouldn't make a difference, but being the first mover their would quite possibly have short term consequences with limited long term benefit (others can follow suit at any time and your advantage of being better paying evaporates after the short term disadvantage of charging more).
Maybe 1% price increase and a PR campaign that you pay double the industry standard to assure that you have the best pilots in the industry could offset the higher ticket prices.
Essentially, if there was 1% more to charge and not lose out, the airlines would already be doing it.
I'm not sure where your 1% napkin math comes from though.
if we say 100k/year for 1000 hours limit annually for domestic flights that means $200/hour for pilot time (2 pilots @ $100/hour), 140 seats per 737, that means on a 4 hour round trio (8 total hours) flight (PHL to DEN) for $300 (typical real airline price just typing it into google right now) you have $11/person being paid to the pilots (8*200/140, assuming zero non pay compensation), that's 3%, not 1%.
To be at 1%, current pay would need to be 33k/year.
Most of them seem seem to focus on safety nets further allowing individuals to participate in the market (safer to take a risk, easier to change jobs).
Germany on the other hand is called out in the summary for not having a generational improvement.
As a computer user, I think a lot of it is JavaScript too.
It used to be "I just need a computer for browsing the web and word processing", now browsing the web is by far the heaviest demand out on my computer (work one even).
I do simple layout, photo editing, prepress, the creative suite is lighter for this type of work than many websites that are just for faffing about.

That's not true about his polls.
He went from -9 or -10 three weeks ago to -11 or so now.

CL is great for stuff that's close, but I'd be worried about transactions where I can't pick up.

What's a better alternative (as a buyer)?
I'd love to shop for second hand and obscure things somewhere the sellers are happy.

And that has what to do with them favoring Netflix over YouTube or some new guy?
Lucky you, I live in a non rural areas and I can get decent internet from cable (starting at $60/mo for 25/5).
I can get 25/? Satalite for $100
That's it for any reasonable definition of broadband
There also "up to 7mbps" DSL for $40/mo
Depending on the tree situation, some people in my area of the city can get 75/75 LoS wirekess for $55/mo
If you go to the burbs, there's about 1/5th covered by FiOS with better prices than the cable (and better prices for cable in that 1/5th
I suppose for $200/mo o could get cellular too, and of course, since we're listing terrible options, I could still use dial up I bet.
Amazon by contrast uses price manipulation practices which would be considered deceptive in most states
I assume this is part of what the AI referenced in the article is going to be about doing
It's also kind of sad that Walmart is the kinder employer in this comparison, but I tend to think you're correct.

That's a pretty standard furniture store thing here in the US too.
Perpetually "going out of business" is their excuse, never seem to actually close though.
What social democracies are planned economies?
Most of them seem seem to focus on safety nets further allowing individuals to participate in the market (safer to take a risk, easier to change jobs).

Heavy flash was less omnipresent than heavy JS I think.
For normal web browsing anyway.
As a computer user, I think a lot of it is JavaScript too.

Both chemists and the AI hopefully.
If they're years away from the capacity to do so, it's better to prevent both themself AND Intel from getting that foothold.
The motor scooters I've seen move with similar decterity and speed to a bicycle, and have similar mass.
It follows to me that they should have similar privileges and restrictions to their movement, and not be purely comingled with cars.
