The problem is they offered you a service that was unsustainable in the first place. You can't offer a one time sale for a product that requires continual maintenance. In all cases where this is being offered with a product, for examp

At a minimum you need a way to collect information from each workstation for all of the installed programs and patches/hotfixes installed. There are tons of companies that sell software that does this out of the box, usually either wi

It's got the same issue as tabletop simulator in that it's using the physics engine to sim everything. This would work well except you're using a mouse to interact with the game pieces and this feels clunky and you end up hi

Modern web is fairly complex but it doesn't have to be. What you're after is a simple form to submit that data to someplace. CSS and JavaScript in your case are only needed to improve the look and get some kind of dynamic feedba

To feel secure in these times you need to know how your company makes revenue, and specifically how you fit in to that picture. If you can't answer that question, then you are at risk. Once you know how you fit into the picture, you c

Style is not protected by copyright. You can create your own art in the style of any living artist and this is allowed. AI is automating that process. Some works that the models produce may be too close to an original work and probably b

I figure these tools fall in a similar category to web scraping which is legal. What you can’t do is copy the file. If you can demonstrate that you are modifying the source data then it’s a new work. Style is not protected by copyright a

I’d caution against publishing the code directly to the public if we’re talking about a well known brand name like Ring, Wyze, Nest, etc. You may end up getting involved in a legal dispute if you do that so for your sake report it through

The cost to manufacture medicine is cheap. The cost of surgical procedures and rehabilitation costs are extreme. Seems like a no brainer, and even accounting for the social effects of people living longer the odds are people will die of s

Indeed, not everyone with ADHD is going to have the same reaction to caffeine so it may not be the strongest correlation. I did look into it in the past and for a number of people with ADHD it has an opposite effect of what it does for oth

Have you been diagnosed with ADHD? Caffeine has a similar affect on one of my children who does have ADHD. Not that we're giving him espressos at midnight, but during the day a caffeinated beverage will slow him down similar to a sma

The issue with those taxes are that they are avoidable and then a property owner has found a way to not pay for the upkeep costs of their property again. The most straightforward way to ensure property owners are paying those costs is to a

The reality is that to own property you need a means to enforce that ownership. That places a constant forever cost burden on the community at large. You need police to enforce against trespassing, you need a legal system to process and t

The only thing I would bring up is we don't have to use bags. Proof of that are stores like Aldi. They don't give you bags, and it's not hindering people from doing their shopping there.

It's true but the reason people are moving to cities are jobs. Rural locations do not have the job market to support the costs to live there. It's a lower cost, but a much, much lower income outlook as well. If you have the mone

It's a simple problem, we turned housing into an investment. Now everyone who owns a home is incentivized to ensure their investment is maximized and that results in a lot of NIMBYism. The simple solution is we need more housing in c

Batteries. In 2010 batteries cost appx $1,200 per kWh. In 2021 it was $132 per kWh. That's significantly cheaper but you still need anywhere from 60 - 200 kWh of battery for a decent range. That can add anywhere from 8k to 26k to t
