   It's not difficult to accumulate enough capacity for solar / wind farms, I agree. But the problem is that we have not yet solved the problem of energy storage (as I said, it's tiny, compared to the capacity it can generates).

   This battery farm, has a capacity of 900 MWh. While a typical nuclear power plant has a capacity of ~3000MW. So this battery farm is just... tiny. But solar power generation has a large potential for larger capacity, the shortest leg is ene

   Just talk to first generation Chinese immigrants. I have to say American Chinese food and authentic Chinese food are belong to different categories and serve different sets of people.

   I feel MTA is pretty badly managed and under-budgeted, absolutely not ideal for a case study even.

    I would say K-12 education and unemployment are different issues here, do you agree with that? For the latter that's another story and I agree it's more complicated. Weren't we talking about education?

    Maybe? Another possible explanation is that some people try to correlate income in USD to education levels. It's not a direct comparison since the cost for education is also cheaper in China. Also since K-12 is almost free (at least me

    I have to say it's human nature. When asking for a favor, you always feel more comfortable if the other guy had a nice chat with you yesterday. There are always things cannot be easily rationalized via formal processes.

    I don't think "Cloud" matters here. Apps are not created from vacuum, they may link to proprietary code (a lot), not to mention infra dependencies. E.g., a Google Reader like thing: * Google internal library dependencies * In
