You're letting them make the decision - who are the ones who use Nazi/brownshirt tactics, and who are the ones who protect criminals? Face it - you're ashamed of your own success, and want to make yourself feel better by supporting a completely open border. Why do you hate people? Why do you lock your doors, or not leave your keys in your car, unlocked?
The folks charged with securing the border overwhelmingly want a wall to assist their job. I think they have a little more experience, knowledge - and investment - in the wall issue than you do...
Cleveland tends to run 3-4 deg C cooler in the winter, and Tampa runs 8-10 deg C warmer in the summer. I'll be in Amsterdam in early Feb for the ISE Europe show, if you'd like to talk in person...
You forgot to mention that while you don't have a bike, you do have a $2500 Peloton in that spare bedroom, and it holds up the extra bedspread quite well...
900K bicycle commuters. Out of 150 million commuters. yeah, a 0.6% sliver of the commuters are going to get ignored - there simply isn't enough incentive to pay attention to their needs.
I was offered my last 3 big consulting jobs (big being more than 1 year's full-time income) from LinkedIn, as well as sources for funding a startup I'm working on. It's a great place to make contacts, find funding, find jobs - if you use it as such. Build out your profile, include all your skills and achievements, and you'll get quite a bit of traction.
Or you want reliable, consistent, massive-scale power in a few locations. And we have a plan for managing, if the Democrats would just let us use the resource that had been planned for decades. But Politik Uber Nation!
They didn't melt down - and they had the same basic internals with automation and labor. It was GM's belief it was "too big to fail" and its poor designs for 15 years that killed it. The hallmark of much of manufacturing is to treat people as "assigned job robots" so that they can do their one job really well - but to throw an exception when they see something related to their job that is wrong. It wasn't what TFA is talking about at all - it was GM's arrogant leadership.
Unlikely wind turbines will be running during the storms and, if damaged, will need repair before resuming operation
This is a very odd argument. I'm not aware of any infrastructure that holds up well to storms.
Which is why it is often wise to have your primary infrastructure located in places that don't bear the full brunt of the storms. Imagine putting your power generation hundreds of miles inland, where it won't have to deal with sustained hurricane forces...
Actually, it appears the wind turbines wear out sooner than the expected lifespans. Now that study was in the UK, and maybe it's related to the great legacy of Lucas wiring systems, but if it's correct - typical turbines will need to be replaced every 12-15 years.
Almost certainly not. The X was the first model designed from the ground up without a headphone jack.
So what the iPhone 7.
Relevance? Lightning only vs headphone only is not an option, as the headphone jack can't replace Lightning.
For audio, yes it is. Do the math for USB-C versus Lightning - same conclusion - USB-C is more robust. And two connectors sharing the "load" of an impact - both of which are stronger than the Lightning connector - is clearly an advantage. Not to mention you can charge or do other things simultaneously with audio.
You're probably looking at US rather than worldwide. As we see with this announcement, worldwide is what matters. And worldwide, iOS devices - the iPhone, the iPad - are losing market share. They get little bumps when a new phone is released, but the trend is continuing downward.
Sure, but the reason for parking it in the Bermudas is to avoid distributing it back to the parent company, while also keeping it in a jurisdiction that isn't going to try to tax it there.
Yep, seems like a smart way to lower your tax burden if you're a foreign company (which this is).
The tax code has always considered "in kind" donations as taxable income. And again - this is NOT about Google's domestic income - this is foreign income, earned overseas. Do you realize the US is the only developed country that wants to tax individuals on income earned anywhere in the world? None of the EU does it, none of Asia does it. The US is quite tax hungry, even to the point of wanting a cut of foreign income earned by foreign companies outside the US...
If that income is above $38,600 then you have to pay at least 15%, and up to 20% taxes on that income, or the "in kind" donation of assets. And yes, paying a mortgage for you, or letting you live in a house "rent free" qualifies as an in-kind donation of assets.

The problem is, when an elevator gets stuck, you have maybe half a dozen people trapped. When an escalator gets stuck, it could be hundreds...

Or you can use other power generation sources - like nuclear.
14.7 to 13.2 for Apple. Huawei, Xiaomi, and Oppo all increased during that time. Apple is trending down, the others are trending up.
They are not guaranteed, meaning you have no entitlement to them.
Look at phones. Show data that says they're not losing market share. Your own link shows a downward trend...
Uh, the iPhone 7 didn't come with a headphone jack. I'd say that was by design.

Wind turbines will change the local climate, and if large enough farms are used, the article concludes it could affect the global climate.

income that is earned indirectly, through the operation of a foreign business by a foreign corporation (“FC”), is generally not subject to U.S. tax on a current basis; instead, the foreign business income earned by the FC generally is not subject to U.S. tax until the income is distributed as a dividend to a U.S. owner. If you have a foreign subsidy that operates in foreign markets, then the profits of that subsidy are not taxable in the US until the funds are repatriated. There IS no US revenue, because it was earned by a foreign corporation doing business in a foreign nation. Doesn't matter who owns the corporation; it's the fact the corporation is foreign and does business overseas.
