You are claiming mostly things people claim eth is going to do someday. Most of those will never happen, at least not on eth. The primary use case for eth was scamcoin ICOs in 2017. No amount of twitter posturing by people trying to preten

No, that's not a personal attack. "Ok Boomer" is personal attack in a lot of places, but I guess not here... It's banter, it's common on the internet, it's been common on the internet for decades.

isn't the aid mostly low or zero percent loans? That's what the discussions were anyway. As long as that's the case, what are you hurting if you take it? It's just free money to help your business along, and businesses

Well of course not -- if you find the perfect society, don't join it, you might screw it up! Same goes for me of course, none of us are perfect!

Not a "boomer". Misguided as usual. As you grow up, you will, as I said, realize how much smarter all those people you dismiss actually were than you believed. The world is a complex place. The "old people are dumb and we sh

Ah the misguided enthusiasm of youth. You'll grow up, don't worry. It will amaze you how much smarter your "boomer" parents get as you get older.

So first their salary certainly won't depend on their "minority" status. Most defense contractors aren't going to negotiate a whole lot, especially for an entry level. And comp depends greatly on where the job is, whet

The money could have come from anywhere, and likely Jobs would have found it. It didn't have to come from MS.

Apple would be dead if Steve Jobs had not come back. Nothing MS did would have saved Apple if Jobs hadn't come back and turned the company around. That's the end of the story.

To be fair, I don't think that he's saying it should be banned -- he's saying that we need a lot more testing before claiming this is a cure based on one study with a tiny number of participants. His statement is accurate. A

Apple would not exist if they had bought Be instead. Buying Next brought Steve back, and that's the only thing that kept Apple alive.

Boeing is a defense contractor. Northrup is a defense contractor. MS? Not even a chance. What percent do you think of their business is actually government, beyond buying licenses just like nearly every other corporation on the planet.

The military is a MS customer, just like nearly everyone else on the planet. Calling them a “defense contractor” is a very long stretch.

It hasn't existed in the US for the last 1.5 months. We are testing people, and we are doing quite a bit to prevent spread inside of the country and out.

That's a ridiculous assumption. You're pretending we live in the 1400s. We don't. You're pretending we will take no measures to control this at all. That's simply not the case.

No we're not. That's absolutely absurd to claim. It might -- MIGHT -- kill 2-3% of people who are highly susceptible to it, people who are in their 70s+, people with cardiac and respiratory disease. Maybe. We don't ev

How would you know? Most of us laugh at a question like that on an application and move on. It's not worth the effort. You have no idea what candidates you never even see because of those ridiculous questions on an applications.

They are definitely in local backups (note that I didn't say iCloud), but I believe they're in encrypted iCloud backups as well, as I've done recovered phones with GA tokens from an iCloud backup before.

As long as you use encrypted backups with iPhone, your GA keys are backed up and you can restore a new phone with them also.
