Yes, that's the video. He doesn't seem to be a fan of americanos. It's one of my favorites so I'm pretty interested in new ideas for one of the most basic drinks.

I think they know that they are going to lose some users. If you are a fan of open source, maybe this will be a good thing. Maybe this will drive more people and money to open source projects directed at making a better mobile OS.

I get the feeling that clamping down on useful functionality is often an unfortunate side-effect of closing down paths that are being exploited by criminals to harm users. What should Google do when a change they are making to protect regul

Can you expand on that? I'd like to understand the kinds of things millions of people are no longer going to be able to do.

For you, is the openness of Android appealing as a matter of principle or does it enable you to do things you couldn't otherwise do?

How would you define gambling? Would it make trading stocks illegal?

Wars used to be paid for by raising taxes. Now we have no idea how much they cost. How many years in a row has the Pentagon failed it's audit? How many years (decades?) was the Iraq war funded through annual (unbudgeted) emergency meas
