Actually many places with real competition, near production and very little regulation in the U.S. did have $1.00 or so gallon gas, i.e. much of the south and near energy producing areas in LA for example. I wouldn't be surprised to fi

The real crux of the issue is the long-tail of applications which were never conceived with anything but network-based trust. I'm certain the DoD is absolutely packed with these, probably for nearly every workflow. The reason this wa

Moving to SF (proper) for left wing ideals right now is a bit like being a staunch communist and moving to China. It's so over, thanks to the dollar (either respects, probably). Most of the bohemian, grass roots, critical thinking type
