Based on the conclusion, it basically impliededical aid + UBI is impractical. It also primarily based itself on political arguments and not economic (the headline didn't seem to match the article, to the point that I slipped to conclusion
I personally believe a low UBI plus basic medical care would be great, but the article is based on US political realities.
The conclusion was basically, if the US was like western Europe, it may all work, but in the US political climate it'd be bad, and best to focus on improving what we got.
Which isnt to say your wrong, just that the article was aware.
I have T-mobile, I can't speak to how "true unlimited" my plan is, but I regularly break 10Gb, and have broken 20 (new phone, updated all of my audio content, and watched some movies on vacation).
I can only tether a few Gb though, so in that sense I guess it's not true.
they have a lot of active email users, I don't see why a competent company couldn't make money there.
allegedly they have 12% of search too.
if that's true, it's worth a ton (based on payments made to various companies to be default search).
Google has the advantage of not needing to buy them (they'll get practically the same benefit from their collapse), but there's money to be made with the Yahoo customer base, and e-mail customers are pretty loyal, as it's a PITA to change emails.
It does explain why my mom thought I was a crazy person when I was learning to drive and told her the Cruise Control accelerates the car. She hadn't been driving for over a decade at that point in time.
I wish my cruise control had that. I use cruise control primarily to avoid speeding tickets, but I always feel awkward not being able to rest my foot on the pedal (and unsafe).
I'd like to know how many highway miles is typical before saying it's impressive.
The real issue right now is that self driving cars seem to cause accidents.
The Google cars are in far many not at fault accidents relative to a normal driver, which implies they're actually quite bad drivers, doing weird shit.
Yeah, that's optimistic, you need to assume $0.35-$0.50/mile (total) to be safe (going with IRS numbers for when I drive mine over the last 15 years or so).
If you are cool with old tech (and you seem super into it) go with a BLU.
My Studio Energy 2 isn't so bad, was super cheap, not too huge, works well enough, and has literal all day battery (I've broken 9 hours of screen on time with 30% left), went on a well documented (as in using the phone a lot) bender for 24 hours and still had 10% left.
I'm sure there are other reasonable sized and priced vendors out their for android.
My phone is where I have most tabs (though I think it dumps then from memory and turns them into bookmarks).
On my computer, when too many tabs are open to see the site icon, I clean up, on my phone I never do, and I'm more likely to end up in a new browser tab from other activities than I am on a desktop.

Do you really think we have anything approaching the amount of accountants/bookkeelers/AR/AP people as 30 years ago?

How good are the statistics on accident and fatality rate for conditions, times, etc?
I assume they're getting much better with the insurance dongles, but I'm curious.
I do not believe any tethering is allowed as unlimited with Tmobile.
Only for phone plans on the phone itself.
and clearly I'm nowhere near in usage to where you are...

At worst it drops yahoo's value by a billion dollars.

I'd much prefer that. keep my foot resting on the peddle, with no risk of speeding.
80% of the time, it works all the time.
I like that Max speed feature.

Isn't the civil system how libertarians feel disputes like that should be solved?
You're making the assumption that they didn't steal the software from a dealership or some such though.
I worked with a guy that got amazing photos from a middle end point and shoot.
they were all daytime still photos, and he would work for the perfect angle, often slithering through thorn bushes, etc.
Sure, there's plenty of photography that requires a better camera, but there's plenty that doesn't too.
I can think of plenty of cases where a controlled hands-offmakes sense though.
For example, Google tech requires mapping the area with cameras, perhaps reaching the end of the photographed area triggers a hand off.
Maybe it's good for some but not all weather.
I wasn't talking about this case, this actually seems like it could have truly been unavoidable, but just in general.
Your sibling post makes a good point about why their involved in number is quite high though.

Airports can be kept safe, it just doesn't look as safe, and requires actually training and drilling employees.

If that figure includes a relatively new car too, not so bad.

Wow, mark-t with the "courts and juries are perfect" argument.
Interesting.
Were any of those things literal interest?
Odd, did they have anything to do with it?
They certainly wanted their name assassociated with it, which were I them, I would have paid extra to make sure didn't happen.
