The US immigration system is notoriously backed up. Even family-based green card processing are backlogged by 5-6 years last I’ve heard. It’s a perverse situation where people affected have no power to request any changes or improvements, a

In my experience you need to upgrade/recompile brew apps on every major upgrade (at least I have had to do it for last four or five). I suppose you may have been able to avoid it if your installed apps happened not to link to any syste

Your internet will not be affected for exactly as long as it takes local providers to see the proof of concept and financial benefits and lobby your government to pass similar regulation, their efforts now bolstered by the ability to point

So, if I as a private individual ignore and refuse to provide information to an active investigation by a State Attorney General, I am liable to be charged with something (obstruction of justice perhaps)? Are there no additional avenues to

Of course there would be a public outcry if during his government appointment he worked to weaken or dismiss regulation that impacts Google directly. It’s the textbook definition of conflict of interest.

I really hope this doesn't end in a fatal crash... allowing conspiracy theorists to proclaim that the fellow was killed by the big government scientists in order to prevent him from spreading the truth.

Right, but I don’t think 100/mo is quite what is considered a whale. Just as in casino gambling, where I believe the term came from, a whale is someone who throws a few hundred to several thousand into a game in a month, possibly in a

If I need to work or nap or just think quietly, I just tell the driver upfront. Never had anyone take offense or bother me after that. Not sure why that needs to be automated. People tend to talk out of social anxiety or the perceived need

I am sorry if I misconstrued your comment. I thought that you said that bugs and issues are caused by the people working there caring more about return on investment than quality, and not caring about fixing issues, which implies carelessne

You're casually insulting everyone who is working hard on the software. Consider that the team sizes are surprisingly small. Consider that throwing more people at a project does not scale, and famously just slows things down after a ce

I watched the video. You asked "why would they be taping the intersection", I gave you a pretty obvious explanation, not sure why you are so vehement about it. In turn, why would any sane person run a two ton piece of gear through
