I think Google might roll their own distribution or at least might have someone capable of doing that for them if they didn't like the features chosen by the distributions.
The problem is that people are going to believe what they want to believe. It's part of being human. We saw that with Brexit. The Leave side was promising all of this money for the NHS, no immigrants, sunshine every day, clown free circuses, etc. There were people, including some news organizations, calling out their lies. And we see how well that turned out.
The bill lets people who have the same invisible, non-existent friend as the president and most of the rest of the elected government (who are supposed to keep church and state separate) to discriminate against people who have a different invisible, non-existent friend. However it is still wrong for those other people with the different invisible, non-existent friend to discriminate against people who have the same invisible, non-existent friend as the president.
Please note that some people do have the same invisible, non-existent friend as the president but it's okay to discriminate against them because they read from a book that has most of the same information as the president's book but tells it in a bit different way.

Yes, that is the state of things. The truly sad thing about this is if the prosecutor is lucky it will only be harmed with the drop in their conviction rate and not because police and other prosecutors try to get even for making a police officer look bad (or worse) while giving testimony.
With how things are now prosecutors with integrity should be rewarded with more important cases and faster promotions so that they can start cleaning up offices of corruption. Instead we let them suffer alone while the corrupt ones rule.
They don't get money from the commercials that are played but they charge stations such as CNN, ESPN, and the rest of the specialty networks based on the number of subscribers. Well, a cut of what the charge the subscribers for those channels. So if the numbers of subscribers drop then the cable/satellite companies are going to be making less from selling specialty channels. Of course the channels are going to be in trouble too because they are losing revenue.
Apple would have to release shares, or create new ones to release, in order to sell them to a subsidiary so that the money would go to them. That would increase the total number of shares in circulation and impact the earnings per share and other numbers that Wall Street loves so much. Plus when Apple paid dividends some of that money would just be going to itself. I don't know how it works when there's a subsidiary involved but if a company buys it's own shares then the shares are out of circulation so I don't even know if it would be possible for them to do this.
If the subsidiary just bought shares off the market then the money wouldn't be going to Apple it would be going to whomever owned the share. This is how companies buy back shares to raise their stock price or raise various per share indicators. It won't help the subsidiary get money back to Apple US.
Since it takes 6 to 9 months to get to Mars if NASA wants to put someone on there then they have just under 3 years to find a rocket to get them there, solve the problem of radiation and lack of gravity during the trip, figure out how to land (taking off is pretty easy), and how to survive on the planet until it's time to go. Right now they have nothing. There's a chance to work with Space X on the rocket. But all of these things take time no matter how much money you throw at them. For example with the rocket it takes time to test the engines, perform test flights, and exam data. Heck, it would probably take six months to a year just to ramp up which would slow down progress as people get up to speed.
They pay for the Internet infrastructure in the same way you and I pay for it. We purchase connectivity through an ISP and then they purchase larger pipes from the companies that built and maintain the backbone. Those companies use the money from selling connectivity to ISPs and large institutions (universities, corporations, etc) to maintain and upgrade the backbone.
I don't think we were ever that far behind except for the top talent going south and the lower budgets.
I was thinking more about the support people and industries. Even the processes for interfacing with government to deal with permits (blocking streets for example) improved when people start doing it as part of their full time job and government wants to encourage the work. Having Hollywood make their shows here has trained people in many areas such as set building, props, lighting, catering, visual effects, etc. Our industry is way ahead of what it would have been if it had to grow on its own. Now if it can take the money from the successes and fund new shows.
I haven't heard about a spinoff of Murdoch but then I haven't watched much TV this year. I haven't been in the mood for it and have been listening to podcasts and music instead.
I haven't heard about Letterkenny. In the past there was The Kids in the Hall which was great until they went to the US and they were restricted in their material. Flashpoint was a police drama that did fairly well too (for a Canadian show).
It's the Music app on the iPhone and iPad. For the longest time it just played the music you had stored on your device. Then around iOS 8.3 they shoved in the their streaming music and made the app less user friendly. In iOS 9 they redesigned the app so it was a bit better but it still is missing things from before such as replacing the ratings with a heart. The ratings still exist in iTunes though. And if you want to change the volume or skip forward/backward you have to go from the mini-browser view into a full browser and then return back in order to see your songs. It's not very user friendly, especially if you are using it one-handed as I tend to do.
They also made the same changes to their Podcast app (to be consistent I guess). I used to listen to a lot of songs that were podcast but stopped because I used the rating system to determine if I wanted to keep them or not or how to sort. But they got rid of the ratings in that app too.
Ever since Iovine showed up at Apple things have been getting worse even faster. When Jobs was alive the interface was kept clean and usable. Every release it becomes less usable and if they are going to shove videos into the Music app I'm afraid to know what it's going to look like.
Actually it's probably around the same percentage of good stuff that gets created. I image that there is a lot of crap that gets made in the US that doesn't leave there, especially regional shows. Traditionally we've been known for making bad TV shows but that's changing. The two shows that are currently well known from here are Orphan Black and Murdoch Mysteries. All of the work that we do for the American studios is creating the expertise to improve our shows.
Maybe you should watch some shows from other countries if you are looking for quality. And I'm not suggesting Canada. The UK has some great drama. Australia has some good shows too. The do satire very well and the show Utopia (be careful as there are three shows called that in the world in the past few years) was great. New Zealand has put out a couple of hits but with their small population there's not a lot of money to fund shows. Check out The Almighty Johnsons and This is Not My Life. The later show was going to have a second season but the rights were bought by Hollywood and nothing was done with them yet.
So then manufacturers are going to have to apply to X states out of 50? Talk about a duplication of services? And they will all do it just a bit differently just to be a pain in the ass. Sometimes things belong up at the federal level because that's where it makes the most sense.
You don't look at the sticker on a new car to see how fuel efficient it is? This is the same thing only it says how little, or how much, electricity it's going to use in a year of typical usage.
When I go shopping for large appliances then it's one of the first things I look for since over the lifetime making a bad choice could mean paying almost half the cost of the appliance in wasted electricity. Of course the features of the appliance matter too.
I recently purchased freezer and it's one of the most efficient ones on the market. The estimated running costs for the year are around $50. I saw other freezers with running costs over $100 a year. That was at $0.12 a kWh and the rates for electricity range from $0.087 to $0.18 plus delivery charges plus taxes. It's easy to see that I'm saving myself over $50 a year by picking a more efficient fridge and I can only do that by having the information that the Energy Star program (or the Canadian equivalent) provides.
The fact is that the program in the US costs $10Ms to run but saves consumers $Bs every year and also reduces pollution by reducing the amount of electricity required to be generated. Think of it as appliance makers reporting their mileage rating.
For new housing in which they are putting in new wires it makes sense to put in fibre and skip copper all together. But for most of the existing houses they just use the existing copper wires for DSL. There is no digging up to install wires so DSL is cheaper to install than fibre. That was the great thing about DSL. It reused the existing infrastructure. You just changed the line card and gave the customer a couple of filters for their phones.

Or met a developer?

Actually Cisco's and Oracle's customers are managers who then leave it up to the technology people to implement their latest mistake.

Well then why not sue the country responsible for setting up the conditions that enabled ISIS to be formed in the first place?

Yes because the only place in the world these companies can create jobs is the US. /s
It would depend on how those shares were bought.

Sure with hindsight we can say that.
And we'll still have data limits 5GB (mines 300MB) which means we'll blow through them in seconds.
They pay for the Internet infrastructure in the same way you and I pay for it. We purchase connectivity through an ISP and then they purchase larger pipes from the companies that built and maintain the backbone. Those companies use the money from selling connectivity to ISPs and large institutions (universities, corporations, etc) to maintain and upgrade the backbone.
Because it'll cost a fortune for the extension cord!
