I completely agree. To add to that, the Toyota Tacoma has never been cheap either new or used. Add some pent up demand, and you get a more expensive truck.

I want my digital cash to work like regular cash. I need to pay the lawn guy, send an iMessage. I wanna buy lunch, swipe my phone and pay with the money in my phone. I don't need the charge going through my bank or some intermediary

I think paying your state and federal taxes in the United States should be seamless. Your employer should take the taxes out of your paycheck. At the end of the month/year, you should get a statement showing all the taxes you paid. I

I think the article misses the point totally. I think the question is how much data is enough for advertisers and companies? The problem I see is that companies like Google/Facebook is that they have too much information gathered abo

It sure sounds like they messed up big time, and it could cost them. I'm sure Putin will never do anything to them while they are in Russia, but the moment they step out of the country to spend some of their money, all bets are off. T

I wonder if it would be cheaper for all these companies to go and pay for a sticker/stamp of some kind put on all the signs in a city. Figure out a standard and put them everywhere. This would give them time to get the AI vision detec

How much money was Jay-Z's Tidal paying artists? I think music streaming is a low margin business that is only successful at a large scale. Why doesn't Paul McCartney, who's extremely wealthy, spin up a music app to stream hi

The problem we have is that the WHO made a mistake early on in the pandemic and then changed course. As humans, we should be allowed to make mistakes, acknowledge the mistake when new information is presented, and then change course. The p

I think a big issue is company mergers and acquisitions. For a while now, the bigger is better mentality has ruled. Additionally, we've let too many companies buy up competitors. For example, Facebook purchased Instagram and Visa tri

For me it was the lack of storage tiers. When the only options is to get 1TB or more, I think you lost a lot of users. Additionally, they should have figured out a way to share storage with a family, if the only profitable storage tiers a

I'm not trying to make this political, but with all the migration to Texas it will be interesting to see if it remains a strongly Republican state in the future. I live in Georgia and I can see the demographics changing quite a lot.
