The perceptive utility of software declines when it is subscription-based in current times. A one-time fee for software is reasonable to a purchaser, renting/leasing software is no longer economical for the size of most phone apps...to

I cannot see this ending up well for Netflix. It sounds like it personally offended someone's sensibility and they decided to fire the guy. I expect Netflix to lose this lawsuit, but more importantly, settle it before it ever goes anyw

Regarding the turbofan and [0], above...if you're communicating to a non-engineer (me), how does the design get to the point of such complexity? I would love to learn the design story behind such an incredibly complex piece of machiner

I love that you include the BNF-ish grammar. Grammars are so straight-forward to read, I wish my eyes didn't glaze over during those times I've tried to sit down and create one.

That doesn't only exist in Victoria and that busy-body group isn't only about building and housing. They are active against many things. I live in California and they complain about people walking down the street, water restrictio

This cannot be overstated - the uplifting effect of the written word feels much more potent than hearing it from a friend or scouring YouTube videos. I have found this book ( https://tinyurl.com/4k27x6s9 ) to be a wonderful r

You have excellent points here. I would also add that the Bay Area really missed the point from an innovation perspective when they started investing billions by and not leading with solving real problems. As an example you only need to loo

People are conflating "Defund the Police" with a reduction of Policing enforcement and staffing. Whereas, I believe the original intent of DTP was the stop the militarization of the Police by not allowing them to acquire APC and o

In my eyes, the partisanship is the deadlock. I didn't want to make it a political discussion or turn it into a flame war over blaming one party over another. Both parties, or members on each side, have a vested self-interest in mainta

Additionally, and admittedly without evidentiary support, we could argue that two biggest suppliers of capital investment for innovation used to come from business and Government and largely still do. However, business has focused on short-
