What's a hard case for vision? That's how our eyes work. LiDAR has problems with precipitation too.

Seeing that obesity is an epidemic, it's clear to me that people aren't able to self-regulate. It's not that this generation of humans are worse than the previous, it's just that we've created a food landscape where

Carbon doesn't care about what class it comes from. Tesla would have never gotten off the ground if rich people didn't give them money. Now we have the Model 3 to look forward to thanks to people buying luxury cars.

Tesla has lots of experience packing cells with their vehicles. I would trust them to get it right. Also they have much more space to work with versus a phone. I wonder how the safety of this will compare to gas: http://bloximage

Instead of moving a mouse cursor to a toolbar item you can just tap something without repositioning your hand. It's not as fast as someone who has mastered every key combo, but for regular users it should increase productivity.

Your hands don't have to move around as much to select a toolbar item and you don't have to move your hands up to the screen like a surface. I think the touch bar will be great for productivity.

Too much tweeting caused them to summarize and ignore chronological order, so one would hope they realize that too much of a good thing is a bad thing.

Any company can add a bunch of ports and say "yes" to everything. It's characteristic of Apple to piss people off in the short term and keep things focused. Personally I wish the MacBook had 2 ports, but I love that Phil'

Twitter should have a tweet quota and charge people who tweet too much. People who chase hashtags and reply with reaction gifs have turned it into low-brow garbage.

I remember hearing that Phil Schiller came up with that idea. Apple really wouldn't be Apple without him. He's the guy who had the goal of making a laptop with one port. He's the guy who's on board with removing the head
