Am I sure I can taste the difference between beans of different origins? Absolutely. I'm confident you can too.

It's not fake. That said, I'm not sure what all makes a difference. For example, I'm not sure how much altitude affects things. Bean size definitely seems to. Same goes for the process (wet, honey, natural, etc). And, of cour

Depends, did you get a sweet tax deal for locating your HQ with the implicit understanding that putting the HQ there would drive tax revenue back to the city? Did you tell your friends and top investors of this decision and did they purchas

A layoff isn't a firing unless you choose to not accept the package. Accepting a severance is considered voluntary separation. You sign a document stating this.

Wow... This all seems a bit cherry-picked... - The google metric doesn't make sense. In fact, the graph tells sort of the opposite story. Revenue per employee shot up and then they did layoffs in response... huh? My guess is that this

It doesn't work that way. When I fly, it's typically the only feasible option. I've never in my life sat down and calculated flying vs driving. It's more something like >400 miles, then fly, otherwise drive.

Why would I care about per mile stats? What matters to me is the safety of the contraption and crew I'm putting my faith in each time I step foot into the machine. Airplanes shouldn't get a higher safety rating simply because the

Ahh. Well, in the case of the Alaska flight, it's a plug door and not used as an exit. It's pinned in place with large pin that has a bolt, a castle nut and cotter pin which lock the pin.

A properly designed service manual will specific if the fastener should be lubed. If it doesn't say lube/thread locker should be used, then the fastener should be torqued dry.

Where did you see that? My understanding is that it's an optional plug door that's used to assist with interior installation. Once the interior is done, it's bolted shut and interior paneling is installed over top. From the i

No, this is a result of how the DMCA is written. If a content distributor is notified of infringing content, they must take immediate action or else face penalties. The problem is, there's no definitely way for a content distributor to

The DMCA states that YouTube must respond immediately to claims. They have no option but to take action. This puts them in a precarious situation. They can either a) initially assume all claims are valid and handle arbitration while the vid

Google has two options here: 1) Accept all take down notices at face value and let the courts handle disputes 2) Become a mediator and open themselves up for liability It's no surprise Google chooses option 1 given the scale they must

Yeah. This doesn't appear to be the same sort of thing (malicious code being integrated into the kernel itself). This is just a backdoor that leverages an exploit.

These "costs" you speak of are purely fabricated through a complex system of insurance, pharmacy consolidation, medical practice consolidation, and intermediaries who structure the pricing.

The consolidation of the medical industry has been one of the most terrible things I've witnessed during my lifetime. What is the end state for all this?

I read another article talking about what waymo was working on and this looks oddly similar... My understanding is that the goal is to use this to reconstruct 3d models of street view images in real time.

Then they should do it in this instance as well. Until there's guidance, "autonomy" is just a word like any other and open to interpretation. In those instances, free speech should protect any company using the term and I say
