EVs will not be affordable for the masses even if they are able to get under $20k since home ownership is still effectively a prerequisite for owning an EV right now.

> Stating that you'd expect a country to 'remain the same' is tantamount to stating you want the current horrible problems that presently plague our society to persist - with no action against them. That doesn't make

The sound is irrelevant. Taking out the record, putting it on a record player, placing the needle, and not being able to skip tracks without effort is a different experience than digital. Simulating the sound differences would be like cars

I have a chase sapphire card which is also metal. I have had to have it replaced twice. Once because the chip reader part flaked off and another because the magnetic strip stopped working

My family lives in rural areas and a lot of people there do manual labor jobs but are still overweight. I think it is more of a cultural thing around food. When I visit, I am always shocked by how much food people eat. The amount of exercis

I would definitely not include LA on a list for accessible without a car, and San Francisco is debatable.

A lot of cities have tons of these scooters but no bike lanes. I saw lots of really dangerous behavior on them in St Louis and there were a lot of collisions.

I don't think it is out of the realm of possibility and I see them taking the same path as Netflix currently. They are launching with big games that people know, but they need to get people hooked with new exclusive games, and a bunch

I think it will be really enticing for people that want to play sports games but don't want to invest in a console. Those customers are also not going to be the ones concerned about latency.

Once an app reaches critical mass for a location, the restaurants all go where the users are.

I think they should make traffic worse. Make it so bad that people stop driving. Hell, make it so bad that people move closer to work.

It is the same as using anything other than USD to trade for something. Wether that is Stocks, Euros, GBP, goats, if you bought it at one price and traded it for something else based on a different price, you owe taxes for your capital gain

I think one of the things that makes USB-C particularly problematic here is that "plug it in and find out" can be harmful to devices since devices can draw 100W of power through the port.

You can't compare physical goods to software in relation to price parity. The cost to sell an iPhone in South America is higher for Apple then it is to sell one in the US so it makes sense that they cost more. For a game it costs the s

Stadia will completely avoid the issue of key resellers since I would imagine they are completely removed from the system of keys issued from publishers. They also have only announced plans to launch in US and Europe currently and it may ne

I think this depends a lot on what kind of laptop user you are. Are you someone who is always at a desk with a mouse and keyboard, or do you want to post up in a coffee shop with just your machine and no peripherals? The macbook pro is vast

GM has the right name with Super Cruise. It works just as well and in some cases better than Tesla Autopilot, but the perception of the public is that it's worse because it doesn't have the inflated name of 'Autopilot'.

It probably helps that kids are a rare sight in SF which are generally the cause of annoyance at a theater. Alamo has a strict no children rule except for family specific showtimes, so it's a good option if you live in a more kid frien

If you need caching then you would likely server render your page and that would inline all of the critical css to be cached as well. Writing your css in JS files also does nothing to prevent you from separating content and presentation. Yo

Senior would be someone who takes the lead on projects in their domain across their team/other teams. Principal would be responsible for leading overall architecture for multiple teams/departments or a super expert in some domain.

Hiring a replacement would cost them a lot of money and the replacement would also expect $400k for the same responsibilities anyway.

Most people that make a lot of money probably like their jobs. It is probably quite difficult to get really good at something you don't actually like doing.

Many people can learn to program and companies that pay poorly will only be able to hire people who aren't very good and they will go out of business. Finding good teachers is very hard as well but the government will only pay terrible

I thought their numbers would be really bad because of that but it was actually pretty close. Effective tax rate in SF would be 38% and if you are maxing your 401k you are left with 175k net.
