It's interesting that two of the largest automakers in the world need to work together to compete with a company the size of Tesla in this arena.

They're playing the (somewhat) long game. While the portion of the world that doesn't internet access right now is generally poor, adding an internet connection to that populace will drastically speed up their development. This th

Maybe this is heavily dependant on the file structure of what's being synced, but I've tried Google Drive, iCloud, OneDrive, and Dropbox, and all but Dropbox have exhibited the CPU melting issue you describe. Dropbox was the only

If all people were buying Teslas using government-backed loans that the gov was then responsible to collect, while Tesla got paid up front and claimed to be a non-profit, they would absolutely have the right to tell them what they could cha

This is what happens when there's 0 pressure on universities to price their programs competitively. If the government is backing every loan, the schools get paid up front, and the risk is then transferred to the gov to collect, why WOU

If I had to guess, it'll be $200-300 for the base station and $40-50/m for 100mbps.

A startup working on a secure digital voting system should be one of the top priorities here. As it currently stands, this is what the voting experience is like: - Always on a weekday, so if you have a job and then a family to take care of

In which case this move against huawei is "just business". It's their problem now to figure out how to develop top tier hardware and software without stealing it from American companies and rebranding it.

Or maybe this is retaliation for the billions Chinese companies have made off stolen American IP. Ever thought of that? To imply this is pure protectionism is over simplifying it.

This is a pretty big generalization. If you've stepped foot in many construction sites and seen no "drama" between workers, you weren't paying attention.

While true, this is also the case for Amazon's app store, and their app selection is a fraction of the Play store to this day.

To all those stating that Huawei should just make their own OS, it's nowhere near that simple. Forking Android is the easy part, building an app ecosystem that thousands of developers across the globe actively partake in is incredibly

The cause of death is respiratory failure, not "air pollution". I'm getting real tired of even big names like CBS getting in on this clickbait game.

I might be reaching here, but it's interesting that the largely Baby Boomer owners of physical retail use language like "millennials killed the mall". Almost as if their business model is entitled to succeed forever, and mi

And just like it did in the early 1900s, the government will again adapt with new regulations that take the gig economy into account.

Maybe I'm being overly cynical, but I found it strange that rather than googling "middle class income range SF", you chose to post this rambling humble brag comment.

Until you improve on the pitiful salaries offered in Europe's tech industry, that's not going to change.
