I'm going to echo others - who says you need to find one thing and stick with it? What if that one thing is no longer worth pursuing? Things change constantly. Rather than focusing on 1 thing or a couple of things, develop skills for

>that is always representing Apple. That's what happens when you get companies more interested in politics and values vs. just putting out the best products they can. You start to eat your own.

This has to be THE dumbest reason for running someone out of a company I have ever seen. God help us as a society. The real irony is the people screeching the loudest scoldy shit like this today were also those most likely screeching (cor

Money is an issue, but not the main one. When "The Message" is more important than anything else, people eventually tune out. Same thing is happening with Hollywood and that has little to do with money - at least as far as produc

If you don't connect it to the internet there are no ads. It still boggles my mind that people connect these things to the Internet :p

As the OP points out, the real AWS costs are in transit - not the server costs. Their app generates a TON of traffic.

Is it really the cars that are the problem - or just a high concentration of particles in the air from having so many people and things jammed in a tight space? Dense cities themselves are the real problem. I have started carrying portable

I grew up going to this mall during it's peak in the 70's and early 80's, and I think it's done a fascinating job of adapting: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BegXB3d6cqk The indoor swap meet is what use

RAM is NOT cache for your drive. It's the active work space where the CPU tracks all the bits and bobs of executing code - state, variables, etc. Swap space on disk is a cache of RAM, if you want to go down that path - but RAM and dis

As for the budget "surplus" - CA has retired all its debt too? Now that really is good news! lol - surplus with a debt is just accounting fun and games. Keep deluding yourselves; I'm sure nothing bad - like not having enoug

Read the article - it specifically calls out they are concerned about deficiencies *at night*. When are you going to charge your electric cars again?

Those are tough questions someone else will surely answer some time in the future. In the mean time we get to pat ourselves on the back and feel good for ditching those icky internal combustion engines! On a more serious note - and people w

The decades long push for "renewable" energy at all costs has made any consideration of investing in long term base load generation unpalatable in CA - which is why, as others have pointed out, CA hasn't invested in base load

Did you read the article? Because I was surprised to see the major deficiencies they are worried about are at night. When are you advocating people charge their cars again?
