I'm not so sure about this. Samsung and other big players have been looking for a route away from Android for a while. Google is trying to get away from Android itself. Maybe they all execute these moves smoothly, but I could see iOS getting a much higher market share if Android gets abandoned by Google in a few years.
Of course, they could be lying about not believing he did it. Personally, I find it hard to believe that someone that looks so creepy isn't actually creepy, but that's my bias showing.
What you are describing is wealth, not profit. The entire monetary system, including "profit", is an ancient and decrepit, highly abstracted, model of wealth.
Great wealth is what you've got when you've got everything you need to lead a good life, with leisure time to enjoy it. Wealth is whatever you have that moves you toward that state.
An antithesis to wealth is the insurance industry, which sucks up huge amounts of money and hours of people's time while producing nothing with any intrinsic value. Insurance sucks wealth out of everything it touches.
There are ways of creating wealth that have nothing to do with money. FOSS is a form of gift economy that is cashless, and it works very well in its arena. Most of the software I use is FOSS and that has enriched my life tremendously. Today's Internet would not exist if it were not for Apache that powers most of the servers and Apache is FOSS through and through.
Many if not most FOSS code is written by people who are paid to do so. This is especially true of widely used business critical pieces of software like Apache. It's not cashless all the way down.
Is that what value means? How I understand value, it isn't the value of a dollar that is changing, it is the value of housing. Housing in NYC is more valuable than housing in Albany, the dollar is the same value both places.
Now, it is also the case that the value of the dollar can change, but I think that is with more drastic changes. For example, I have heard that in Cuba in the past, a dollar bill was worth more (especially a new dollar) there, due to a limited supply of American currency.
There is pretty good reason to believe that being on the high functioning end of the autism spectrum may be good for going into a field like programming. Evolution doesn't care whether something is classified as a disorder or not, just whether it increases fitness.
Wait, do you mean Go? ESR picks Go as the successor to C, not Rust. He imagines that garbage collecting will someday be more efficient, efficient enough to make Go competitive for systems programming and that Go is simply a better language than Rust.
The public defenders and prosecutors are not making $250k a year. Public defenders make actually kinda pitifully small salaries for the amount of work it takes to do their job well. The guys getting off the guilty wealthy? They are making 250k a year.
What you are proposing is not staying in EST, but staying in EST + DST (we were in DST over the summer). That's exactly the same as switching to AST with no DST. I agree that without the change to winter time here in MA, things would be just fine. I am loathing the dark when I leave work, I much preferred going to work in the dark.
AST is what standard time for MA should be. We are too far east for EST to make as much sense for us as it does for other parts of the country further west.
I absolutely welcome a 8:15 am sunrise on Christmas morning. I'd far rather have more light in the evening. When you are only working with ~9 hours of daylight, you don't get to have daylight on both ends of the work day, and I'd rather be in the dark in the morning, when I'm more alert, than at night, when I'm sleepy.
Massachusetts is in the far eastern side of EST. It doesn't make sense for Ohio and Massachusetts to be in the same time zone, they are simply too far apart.
I doubt it. Car companies are going to be liable for what driverless cars do, so I expect that the sensors will be quite comprehensive and that driverless cars won't be just a little bit better than human drivers but a lot.
Cigarette smoking has been found to be addictive not just due to the nicotine, but also due to the pleasant feeling (apparently, not a smoker) of smoke in the lungs. E-cigs allow first, the consumption of nicotine and the feeling of smoking without the harmful byproducts of combustion. Cigarette smoke contains all those terrible things, and even more that vapes don't produce. Second, e-cigs allow the amount of nicotine to be reduced or eliminated in a way that cigarettes do not. I have never vaped, never plan to, but sometimes a lesser evil actually is a lesser evil.
Does HP offer a windows-less version of most or any laptops? It's been a while since I shopped for a laptop, I seem to remember Dell offering no OS as an option.
Racism is a lot less specific to America than you seem to think. It is a problem in America, a big problem, but America is also the most diverse country in the world. Also, the outcomes for poor people of all colors aren't great here in America - there is a racial component, but there is also a large economic component in the unequal distribution of justice.
This is what I would suspect as well - some people just have more of a tendency for substance addiction, those people are likely to gravitate to both energy drinks and other drugs later.
I saw this and thought "Really?" From the front page of wikipedia chose https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... 11 clicks brought me to Philosophy. I'm impressed.
Great point. Free money isn't actually free. Also, the big banks get away with fraud and are rewarded with bailouts instead of actually being punished. There isn't much incentive to be honest, is there?
If you do move far from mommy and daddy, it gets harder to have those kids from a lack of support. I know, my parents (and my in laws) live on the other side of the country. Having young children and no family support network is pretty hard.

A lot of Americans believe that pulling out is immoral. /s

Not many of those who voted for Moore believe the accusations. Something like 5 or 10 percent.

Some of the Buddhists who live in the mountainous regions along the border of India and China do, I believe. Their form doesn't involve towers though.

Exactly. Also, it appears to be easier to go deathsticks -> vaping -> novaping than deathsticks -> nodeathsticks

This reminds me of some of my experiences installing Linux on EFI systems.

Not only is Paint.NET better than Microsoft Paint, I think it is better than the entry level paint alternatives on linux and MacOS.
Is it wrong that I feel amused that this is happening to Disney, after all Disney has done to ruin copyright law?
