You don't buy the argument that increasing the cost of labor incentivizes a company to look for ways to automate the process to eliminate the labor cost? I guess you also don't believe in other economic "fallacies" like supply and demand and price elasticity.
Anyone involved in patents for large tech companies know that they're mostly acquired for defensive rather than offensive reasons. The purpose of holding a large patent portfolio is so that when someone knocks on your door and says you're infringing on their patent(s) you can take out your own patent book and show them how many patents they're infringing on - the result is usually a cross-licensing deal with no money exchanging hands. I'm guessing Huawei doesn't have one of those large patent books, so they're about to find out what happens when you bring a knife to a gunfight.
Sure, there are other reasons for regulation - protect an entrenched business (usually one who makes generous donations), reinforce the power of a given public official or party, etc.. I suspect what you were getting at though was safety, for which market solutions would be much more effective.
Stated alternately - the reason why most services in this country are so expensive is because they're regulated. The solution is not to start regulating services that are cheap but instead to stop regulating the services that are expensive.
The SEC is currently investigating the company for potentially misleading their investors in 2014. With yesterday's article we now know that Theranos was supposedly using traditional blood testing machines instead of their 'Einstein' technology for commercial testing starting in 2014. In that year Theranos was still raising money from investors and approached a $9B evaluation based on claims of efficacy for their 'Einstein' technology. Will be interesting to see what the results of the SEC's investigation will be.
The guy knows next to nothing about planes other than being a passenger on one. And he's the guy who was arrested in Central Park after he was caught jerking off with a rope around his neck that was tied to his genitals and with meth in his pocket.
Today's startups wouldn't exist if there hadn't been products in the past that seemed impossible at the time but were later able to become reality and make it to the market.
I agree it's a violation of user privacy but still I'm curious about what the tracking data shows. For example I wonder what percentage of those exercising hit up a donut shop after they're done.
Now that you've knocked out the scourge of after-hours work emails maybe you can work on some of the more minor problems facing the country, like repeated domestic terrorist attacks.
"Today the Bay Area's total employment of 3,353,600 as of the end of March still reflects job growth, with102,600 workers added from March 2015 through March 2016."
In other words, the tech job market is healthy as ever, which includes a natural migration of jobs away from unproductive and unsuccessful companies to those which are better managed.
Those were Apple-specific and were the result of a tremendous comps from the iPhone 6/6s replacement cycle. Samsung's sales for their new S7 have been very good.

Free speech works both ways.

How will they be able to submit their online ransomware payment if their network is clogged from a DDoS?
I'm sure of it.

oops.

Where you would literally choke on the government's propaganda, ie the horribly polluted air.

It requires a lot of cajoling or money or both.

Yep, those attacks. Making past mistakes doesn't mean corrective action shouldn't be taken, esp when civilian lives are at stake.
In addressing terrorism there's a big gap between doing nothing and ending civil liberties.

From the article:

It's The Matrix - the fake reality we all live in. I heard The Architect made a fortune in stock options.

If that were true then demand for $600+ smartphones would have declined appreciably as well, which doesn't appear to be the case.
I agree with you completely, except about what exactly represents reasonable oversight and regulation.
And the scared passenger didn't want the professor to fly under false (mathematical) terms.
