The real problem was that the manufacturer who supplied Ubuntu phones also sold a more powerful Android version for less. Anyone who really, really wanted an Ubuntu phone could just root it. Same as anyone who wants a non-Windows computer can just re-format a Windows box and install whatever they want - for less.
Yes, we ARE talking cause and effect. Cuts to budgets result in firings. The cause is the person doing the budget cuts - not the person tasked with doing the actual termination.
Demand for medical services isn't "inelastic." Go watch "Sicko". Or look at the people who can't afford to see a doctor because the co-pay is too high. People do NOT "always find ways to pay physicians." Otherwise, they wouldn't need medicare and medicade - many, before they got covered by one of these two plans, hadn't seen a doctor in decades even though they had chronic diseases.
Why don't you go live in your libertarian paradise - Somalia has no government interference, you can do whatever you want and you won't pay taxes or have to worry about other people on medicare.
3 bear cubs got themselves locked in a park outhouse. Rangers can't figure out how hat happened. Guess that the old question "Does a bear shit in the woods?" needs to be answered "not necessarily" now.
The dog who shares my home is certainly meant to be owned. It's my first dog ever that wasn't a huge brute that would have been quite capable of surviving in the wild, and at 5 kg he's not really able to defend himself against much. But he's funny, he's always happy to be with me, and he gives me a reason to get outside for a walk 5x a day. Symbiotic relationship where we both benefit.
(... though he mostly acts like he thinks he owns me, and considering that I'm the one who has to pick up his poop...)
Epigenetics can do the job, just as wolves that seek out human contact are also already predisposed to be less aggressive to begin with. I'd take one as a pet. They're more intelligent than dogs.
And how are they going to pay those doctors if they can't bill patients? And all those doctors running their own clinics - if they can't bill medicare/medicaid, they're not going to be able to have as many doctors in their group, It's not just hospitals. So doctors out of work, by Trump cutting funding - the exact mechanism I said.
You're a moron if you can't follow the chain of cause and effect. Or are you going to argue that Trump's cuts to the EPA aren't going to result in people being fired/laid off/out of a job?
He had no choice but to admit defeat. He's positioning the business for either an outside investment or an IPO (in other words, he wants to cash out). As for redirecting resources, some departments are being hit with layoffs of up to 60%.

Ubuntu Android emulator
UbuntuTV Hardware TV - a ripoff of SammyTV open source project
Really? None of those programs employ doctors? Medicare and medicaid don't pay the doctor's bills at the hospital, etc? Those 14 million people who would have lost medical coverage if the Republicans had their way cutting funding, they wouldn't have been able to afford to see a doctor. So, the doctor wouldn't have been paid. Are you intentionally stupid or did you get dropped on your head?
Sure he can fire them - just cut their funding. Medicaid, medicare, research, orphan drug programs, aid to 3rd world countries... you think all these programs are self-financing and make enough of a profit to pay doctors?
Putin won't. He and his buddies like things the way they are - rich oligarchs tend to like the status quo. His "friends" would probably take him out if necessary.
And my home country Canada, for selling armored vehicles that can be weaponized quickly and used against their own population. Justin Trudeau didn't have the balls to cancel the deal, even though the original deal was illegal when the Conservatives allowed it.
It was only a matter of time before Tump (sic) started another war in the middle east.
Are you ever behind the times. Wars have been going on in the middle east for a LOOOONNNNG time.
Millions of dead and displaced people could have been avoided if Obama had acted when Assad crossed the "bright red line" of chemical weapons. All it would have taken is one small tactical nuke against an airbase, and then saying "You crossed a bright red line, we crossed a bright red line. Now, are you going to dial it back or not?"
It would also not have made the US look like a paper tiger, making threats but afraid to pull the trigger. His backing down against a minor dictator encouraged Russia, China, and North Korea, in addition to Assad and ISIS.
Let's say it continues on that my tweets cannot be seen. This is an account used to promote news of a particular interest. What good is the account to me now?
Next time, don't let someone insert themselves between you and your users. Get their email addresses.
That's because they're doing a Yahoo! 10 years ago Yahoo! made a real effort to pull developers into it's ecosystem, and we saw what happened there. The fact is, it's hard (read impossible) to keep a fixed API when your (and your competition's) shit changes all the time. Keep it fixed == become stale. Change it all the time == unstable. Just look at the rapid succession of javascript libraries as an example.
I'm stuck at the karma cap - I don't do mod point whoring. The fact is, when code is so slow and bloated, and keeps grabbing more and more ram, and becomes less and less responsive, you don't have to be a security researcher to know the code behind it is shit compared to competitors. You don't have to be a researcher at all to know the code is shit.

It was discovered by a university, not a commercial drug lab. Either way, this is nothing to sneeze at.

The middle east was at war before Europe even HAD a civilization. There's been fighting going on there (including Syria) since the Bronze Age.

Unlike Twitter, Amazon is actually useful sometimes. It sells stuff. Not an "experience."
Maybe it's better you don't recover the cost. Or provide your service. 99% of the web is shit anyway. That includes Twitter.
Hi Ron.
We don't care. Damage done.
-- the world.
Twitter was a very good platform to get points across quickly.
Then along came somebody who only uses it to spew lies and misinformation.
Then along came everybody using it to spew lies and misinformation.
It was a platform for people with a 10-second attention span. What could go right?
That's because he WOULD fire them, rather than re-deploy those doctors to tend to other medical needs.

Fact is, we're not just talking about zero-day exploits. Try to stay at least a bit on topic.
