Yes, good old balloons make much more sense if you just need to get up high and stay there. The whole "solar drones" thing reeks of a hype project combining two trendy technologies that are way inferior to a non-trendy, old-fashioned solution.
It's difficult enough to build consistently reliable and durable ammo and weapons out of high quality metals.
Scrapyards are full of failed attempts to build better weapons by companies who wasted taxpayer money producing weapons with all the wrong design goals. And military graveyards are full of soldiers who got stuck with some of those shitty weapons before the top brass realized what an awful design they were.
It's not the hiring that's the problem so much as the insane over-hype that accompanies the hiring. Elizabeth Homes was getting gushing cover stories in major publications before she had even proven that Theranos's technology even worked.
Just because your an SJW and you WANT some woman or minority to be the savior who proves that a female or minority can be just as good as any man, doesn't mean that you should automatically jump on the hype train just because they have dark skin or a vagina.
But you won't learn, will you? The next Carly Fiorina, Ellen Pao, Marissa Myer, or Elizabeth Holmes is just around the corner, and you're going to taut them as the GREATEST CEO EVAR, aren't you?
And that's a shame too, because the legitimately good female CEO's out there will ultimately suffer for all the over-hype of the shitty ones.
I'm starting to worry that I'm going to have to wrap my house in a Faraday cage in a few years just to prevent a Maximum Overdrive-style attack from my own fucking appliances
If 500,000 apps earn their developers a total of $1 million in year 1 and 1 million apps earn their developers a total of $1.5 million in year 2, in which year would you make the most money as an individual developer of a single app?

Unless you're over 120 years old, your education wasn't THAT well-rounded. Classical college education didn't even have *majors*.
So quit yer braggin'!
Pretty easy to make more when you're in league with Lucifer!

You don't just throw taxpayer money at any type of needless research just because it's trendy.
Because it way, way more likely to produce bullets that jam guns or don't fire at all than to help the environment in any significant way.

Because if it's not, then it must be the last stunt of a bunch of Obama appointees who know they're about to be handed their walking papers.

Sure, we're losing money on every click. But we'll make it up in volume!

Well, there are some bathhouses where you can go exploring shafts if you like.
Seriously, TV display acronyms are getting out of hand.

I prefer taxis because I have a very particular fetish for smelly Iranian men yelling at me in broken English.
If you had rolled this out just a couple of days earlier I could have gotten as drunk as I wanted on New Years Eve without this drunk driving charge!
