Let's look at one recent (3 days ago) example from Politifact. [1] > "There was a very large infrastructure bill that was approved during the Obama administration, a trillion dollars. Nobody ever saw anything being built."

Techy people, by and large, don't understand marketing. We think that technology should sell itself, and anyone who needs convincing of the superiority of some solution is just dumber than they are. Combined with the elitism complex we

It wouldn't be very sophisticated if that's all it took to discover fraud.

A better complaint is that a company like Uber can profit from it. The service they provide is so banally simple that it could be replicated by a government office or nonprofit, and has been in several markets (RideAustin as an example). Th

Don't be so dramatic. There's a massive silent majority who will not leave OSX. The new MacBook Pros are literally some of the best machines Apple has ever produced, and a renewed focus toward pro users for the 2017 refresh (with

I'm not so certain. The alternative might be to double or triple the pay of ultra-high-performing employees. But, ultimately, your performance at your job is bounded by the responsibilities of your role. You can possibly have a 2x impa

Also remember that AP1 wasn't even created by Tesla. That technology belonged to Mobileye, who is now owned by Intel. And it is public that Mobileye was the party who ended their relationship; Tesla was pushing their tech beyond what M

Amazon fundamentally does not understand UX. Office is too entrenched and Google Drive has great UX. This product is dead on arrival.

It is brilliant. But their track record doesn't seem to be all that great. They add services to Prime like Video and Music, but their competition is still around. No one is leaving Netflix or Spotify. More importantly, the main reason

I agree. This is definitely the impression I've gotten from people I've talked to. In an ideal world, how would they solve this? Is it to move back to self-hosted infrastructure? Isn't that the same problem; they're just

I have to agree with your other responders. Cloud consumers are, fundamentally, price sensitive. The only ones who might not be are venture-backed startups with deep pockets. Individual consumers are price sensitive, as you say. That's

S3's cost to the consumer scales with the amount stored. That's different from Amazon, Dropbox, or Google, who offer enterprise-facing non-developer storage options at a flat rate for "unlimited". They can do this becaus

Niche creators can always leave the algorithms behind and work out ad deals on their own. Podcasting is an area where this is how it has always worked, and will continue to work. Also, I think you need to change your perspective. Ads allowe

I think that's entering an area of ad ethics. Yet, its an ethical violation that companies like Google make today. If I search for "Wealthfront", I get an ad for Wealthfront, Betterment, and TDAmeritrade, in that order, befor

I fail to see how Scott Adam's stance "intentionally sabotages" others efforts. Are you suggesting that freedom of speech is a form of sabotage?

But aren't the node IPs relatively constant, barring complete node failure? You could just whitelist all of the node IPs you'd expect to connect.

The complaints are levied against the $65k Model S, not the $35k Model 3. No one has really seen the interior of a production Model 3. Even then I wouldn't believe it. I'll accept a subpar interior on a $25k Toyota. I won't o

Doing one thing better and a thousand things worse does not make the product a worthy alternative in most use cases.

I think most people would suggest that, if your use case is at a stage where that is important to you, Swarm is not the right thing. Kubernetes or ECS are better choices.

Yeah! We should go back to native editors, like Eclipse or IDEA!

That seems like a strange conclusion considering Uber doesn't even pay for the vehicles and fuel. UberPool is one pointed example of scale economics working. Another would be Uber's brand encouraging more riders and the ability to

Did you even watch GCPNext? The entire event was enterprise-focused. They brought a half-dozen companies on stage to basically say the same thing over and over again: "We moved to Google cloud, its so much better, Google helped us ever

I don't believe the clear answer to that is Yes. I'm not sure if it is No either. Maybe they should share that intelligence with the NSA, but I can imagine if sharing that intelligence would compromise the the mission of the CIA t

Its sad how many news outlets grapple to find some excuse for Trump's meteoric rise to power besides the obvious one; a massive voter-base of disenfranchised American workers, nearly completely ignored by the administrations of the pas

Yeah, that's asking a lot of journalists. We all know that writing high quality pieces is what Vox is famous for, I guess they just can't be expected to have the time to put something like "journalistic integrity" or &qu
