Odd. Listed as posted 3 days ago in the search, but pointing at this edition. This specific article must have hit the second chance filter. There's plenty of other reviews dated a month ago however.

I'm a fan of the innovation token idea. You have n (where n is based on your team size) innovation tokens to make use of. They can be applied to your product, the technology used to build the product, or the infrastructure supporti

Yes. Do you believe otherwise? Why should someone be exempt from following laws based on their stock value?

I can't currently imagine (say) an electric fire truck, nor ambulance. Why? The biggest problem I can think of is that they have a shorter range, but for a fire truck or ambulance the extra weight for longer range wouldn't really

So Starlink's activation instructions expressly written for the Hurricane Helene relief effort are lies? Please forgive me if I request a citation. Especially since the information you've provided so far has all been contradicted

Those are the instructions for new customers. Existing customers can add up to 20 kits to their account you'll note. These are absolutely tied to accounts, to addresses, to billing information.

There's definitely a gap to be filled there, but one lump sum yearly is a much bigger burden than a few cents every week or so.

Respectfully, this correction is wrong on most counts. Per Musk and the official starlink detail document, it's available for existing and new customers in affected areas. Starlink on X said they sent ~500 kits as of 10/1, not 200

That's a fairly thin article. The one note about how much these laid off workers are making is just an allegation aimed at less than 3% of the total number of laid off workers, not a value with any citations. It would help a lot if the

Moving is exactly how my wall of books went down to a device full of books. As much as I cherished those books when I first read them, many never made it to a second reading. And the feelings the physical books evoked has faded over years.
