The value prop is not having to have an in-person doctor visit or pay a huge copay to get access to the drug. The per-pill cost is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of cost, especially if you don’t actually want that much of the drug.

While I think your fear is an important one to keep in mind, Apple doesn't share your data without your consent, and the data is encrypted. https://www.apple.com/privacy/approach-to-privacy/

That sounds awesome, but isn't that risky? Doesn't that mean you could never make a backup of the key, so if your macbook broke then you'd permanently lose access to whatever the key was protecting?

Because there are a huge number of users in California, and it’s also the fifth largest economy in the world. Ignoring California is probably throwing away a big market. You could say that about Europe to wrt GDPR but you should note that a

It's really sad corporate America owns workers, forced arbitration is such a handout. Now UBS gets to ax anybody they want a day before their bonuses are due and even if they go through with arbitration they've done the math and s

While I understand the sentiment that all the functions aren't necessarily grouped as in OO languages, I think the Clojure functions are harder to group because they're more general. That's not necessarily the strongest argum

You're assuming they didn't just put a little rechargeable battery in the vacuum too. Id assume people weren't doing drug deals while people were shop-vacuuming. Id definitely want to be able to film while it was off.

I like how the site is an example of very fast software, such a simple design and it renders immediately; a single file load with the tiniest of javascript to make the videos work. A full page load in 27ms with only 14kb transferred!
