I think the important question to ask here is if people continue to want to pay & hail taxis from their phone? If the answer to that is yes then Uber will be fine so long as they're one of the apps that people continue to use to h

Does anyone know how well this works with the M2 Air specifically? My understanding with the M1 Pros was that the notch working seamlessly was dependent on Mini-LED. Without the ability to produce perfect black around the notch, is the notc

This seems really odd to me. If it's possible to convert wasm to C[1], then it should be possible to convert wasm to asm.js and just execute that. That may not be ideal, but surely it's a better stopgap solution than letting the h

Yep, it would be readily apparent by that point. You wouldn't even need to "solve" it first; you would see pretty much instantly that the last layer was in an impossible position. Source: I got into speedcubing for a couple y

Is there any chance that this could ever be reliable enough to act as the primary power source for a plane? (In other words, you'd keep just enough fuel/battery onboard for emergency landings, and otherwise rely almost entirely on

Exactly. Plug the hole first (or concurrently), and then worry about bailing water. Additionally, as others have mentioned, it needs to be done in such a way that we aren't punishing those who have been responsible and made sacrifices

So in short, 5G isn't particularly better than 4G all else being equal, but it is a prerequisite to expanding and improving service in ways that matter. Does that sound right?
