People do try to use therapy as an urgent care center. People go to a therapy for help not committing suicide or harming someone else. It is a terrible idea. They can and should go to an actual emergency room.

Palmetto high school is one of the better public schools in Miami but Miami public school are pretty bad and under funded. Palmetto is far from an elite high schools where only rich people go.

History told backwards makes events seem more inevitable and not less. You are looking for the cause of what will happen instead of wondering. Knowing the end colors how you read all the events leading up to this. I believe this is the prob

Leather soles don't last forever, unless you only ever wear them indoors. If you live wear it rains or walk on sidewalks a lot, nice leather soles will last less than rubber soles. Also, you probably won't want to resole more than

You say three times as if that is more valuable than paying every month . I paid $35 in 2014 for both the Mac and windows version. I might have upgraded the Mac version once, but anyway you calculate it, I paid way less than subscription p

Yes but malintent is much rarer than oversight. Even for actions that hurt customers, are not truly a choice. Save for Google and Facebook, even CEOs that hurt the bottom line for a minor moral victory will be replaced with other people.

They were never the good guys. Apple is not the bad guys. They are both huge corporations with tons of people with varying motivations and goals. You were and are creating a narrative about intentions that probably does not exist.

I am saying there is no connection between the two. You don't need a single complete formal system for a useful model of what is occurring. Godel was saying there can't be one true complete set of axioms for mathematics. This does

> what if there is no good formal theory to explain how it works? We don't need a theory that is perfect. Each theory was partially wrong but still lets you make useful predictions about the world. We need useful models that let you

I don't think so. They want to be the only middleman. Suppliers can buy shelf space in Amazon stores but I don't think they will help retailers. They want to make a small percentage of every sale.

Are you a subscriber? The weekly articles are not bait. They are longer about bigger theories and trends. The emails are shorter and more focused on news. He just applies and develops the same theories to the daily news. Both are very good

"And whether cutting out the variable costs of a cashier etc is really worth the trouble in R&D and systems." No, it is not worth it... for a retailer. This is what makes it an effective moat. Fast forward 10 years and Amazon

I think I understand the point you are making but this is way more confusing for me. Partly this can be blamed on imperative lanuages and = vs ==.

App Store search is a disgrace. At least the apps in ads are still being developed. Google search has ads taking up the whole page preventing you from seeing actually good results

Not if the government already pays for it. Why open up self-funded slots and show that the government doesn't need to pay for it? If you make a small profit, you are just putting the other pure profit slots at risk...

This article is biased nonsense. Gruber is a smart guy but his biases blind him to nuances way too often. Apple is talking about the spec for face id but clearly said nothing about the specs for each part.
