I think Apple employs engineers and leadership who care about privacy and security and are willing to marshall the resources to bring that about. I doubt too many customers really truly care.

I'd love for somebody to explain how you get a group of brain tumor-bearing mice. Can one somehow prompt glioblastoma to occur in some meaningful percentage of mice? I scanned the paper but found nothing.

It's a pretty nasty one, since it uses their standard OAuth flow with an app "Google Docs" to have users grant full access to their email and contacts. 1. I can't believe Google doesn't have basic filters to disallo

So they hit $400m of revenue in 2016 and have committed to spend at least that much on infrastructure each year for the next 5 years? After all the costs for staffing and everything else they better I hope they achieve amazing growth if the

Grew up in Rochester. Both my father and Grandfather did about 30 years at Kodak at a fairly high level. How can you transition from the highest margin CPG product of all time to a new regime where there are almost no marginal costs per use
