Unless we know how many companies looked like these and fell flat on their face, this article is useless as a predictive model. Example: Most of the successful ideas seemed flawed. I'm sure a great many flawed ideas also seemed flawed.

I think you meant to cite the third law "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction". In aggregate a force is applied to all the air in a way that is equal and opposite to the force applied on the plane. However &quo

Airplanes can just fly a bit higher so the atmosphere is less dense and the drag is less of a problem. Non-flying vehicles do not have this luxury.

I doubt it will come to fruition. Where do I start. 1. Sanctions are only effective if a lot of other countries also do it. Who would be willing to follow suit because of a cyber skirmish that doesn't involve them? Traditionally the Eu

You aren't addressing what contigenics said. You are just filling in whatever you wish they had said and attacking that. This is called a straw-man argument. Let's look again at the source material: "Wow, yet another anti-Ch

seanmc accused contigenics of "only getting their news from xinhua". This is on intellectual par with responding to a slightly liberal argument by saying "stop watching fox news". I merely speculated on contigenics natio

Here's a quick (terse) summary of what happened up-thread: "I'm physically in China and I find that the NYT reports on China often don't match the reality that I see." "Shut up xinhua shill" Comparing th

In most (Western) countries you have a right to privacy when there is a reasonable expectation to privacy. What you do on the public streets is presumably something you don't mind the people seeing. What you are suggesting is analogous

yeah I have it set to English. I don't think there is an English version per se, just different consumer facing text. Commerce shouldn't be too hard. I have a bank account here and my card is Union Pay.

I can't find the article right now, but this idea isn't new and the answer (according to the FAA) is no. There are several types of pilots license but they all fall into the category of commercial or private. Private pilots can br
