2 things that surprise me: - Why did it take so long? This is clearly an abuse of monopoly power - The App Store is Apple's biggest cash cow, yet despite Apple losing it's ability to charge its 30% racketeering tax their stock i

At school we had a teacher who tried to make us read 10 books a year. You could choose whatever book you wanted, and you had to write a small summary. So every one headed to the school library and looked for the smallest books available. Th

I went to the Green Vault a year before the robbery and I remember telling myself how easy it would be to rob this place. It is located on the ground floor with a road passing by. The windows looked like normal windows, the only protection

Probably a hacked account that would send law enforcement on a wrong lead. Having some one else sitting in jail for you is the best way to get away with a crime.
