Of course it was Uber. I'm sure they don't even give a fuck any farther than the cost to their brand either.

That’s because the policy isn’t derived from first principles, it’s a flexing of relative muscles. Google knows that small sites don’t have any choice but to comply with their guidelines. They also know that if they start filtering out Link

When my friend bought a model S I went over to drive it and found that it’s one of the shittiest feeling cars in that price bracket (buttons doors etc) but as soon as you get your foot on the “gas” pedal it’s the best car I’ve ever experien

It’s not very likely for any US constitutional amendment to be passed ever again.

This is cute but ultimately pointless. Trump has survived sharing classified information with Russia. Fucking a porn star and paying her off isn’t going to really cause any problems for him. And Jeff Sessions certainly won’t indict him.

Probably not, if they have evidence of a Tesla committing a crime, and evidence that Tesla could tell them which one, they can subpoena for “all Teslas that exceeded 100mph in this neighborhood on this day”

Water content drastically changes the acoustic transmission properties of porous materials. A tap with a screwdriver is pretty close to a pure impulse, which means it contains all possible sound frequencies overlapped. By tapping wood, list

You are reflecting very poorly on your employer because you are proving that they hired someone naive enough to think that he could try to open source G Suite.

That’s one thing an oligarch’s lawyer is paid for... to take the fall when the shit hits the fan.

Just because you weren’t able to identify influencers in social networks as an undergraduate researcher doesn’t mean that Palantir hasn’t figured it out.

What Bain Capital wants is to be able to make the short-term operating metrics look good enough to IPO the company and sell it at an inflated price to some buy side dumbasses who are left holding the bag when it goes bankrupt (mutual funds,

Don’t be silly. China is not a paragon of free and fair government but it is not North Korea. She will not be “tortured and killed.”

"Potentially a real effect" meaning almost the definition of a principal-agent problem and a well-known problem in real estate. If you want to prevent it from happening (and I'm not saying that you do) you will have to try ve

No need, a plastic jug of water is good for decades. Yeah, it’ll have carcinogenic nasties in it after sufficient time, but not a huge problem for a temporary emergency situation.

Are you assuming nobody else is trying to exit at the same time? I can get out of my sixth floor apartment in 60 seconds but not if everyone in the building is trying the same thing.

You’re assuming that an impending earthquake can’t be detected before it’s at full force.

Right, but your revenues are also dependent on the cost or time it takes you to do. Let’s say it costs you $1000 of time to get someone a $100K job and $1500 of time to get them a $120K job. You are going to encourage them to take the $100K

I actually think TAL is at the worst that it’s ever been. Although it’s certainly been better than it was in ‘96!

"Decentralized" is always an anti-feature in products like these. It always ends up as a lot of cost for little user benefit. A centralized server always works better and is easier to deploy and support.
