But when customers leave in droves, they can respond by reducing infrastructure and doing layoffs, and then they'll probably still be profitable. With Uber, I think there is some degree of loyalty just because of the ubiquity and conve

Maybe this will lead to a modern equivalent to the Enigma machine ;)

Remote gaming just still isn't there yet imo. Anything multiplayer has enough latency/unreliability issues as it is. Even gaming over WiFi as opposed to a wired connections will create all kinds of problems. I wouldn't want t

This has been a huge disappointment for me. Hack seemed really promising, but some of the decisions they've made really seem to have strangled any hope of there being much of an ecosystem outside a few companies that are heavily invest

Having used both Laravel and Spring, I don't see Laravel being much worse at DI. Spring is just doing everything by Strings anyways, so if you're going to get failures they'll still be at runtime.

It would be better to say this includes some types of "Nazi" propaganda, since the modern usage of the label is far broader than literal Nazism.

I didn't think there was a way for Bing to become a better search engine than Google, but I think this would do it.

Electron really pisses me off, and even I would rather use an Electron app than learn Emacs.

You'd think a relatively authoritarian government would be able to stop people from doing this sort of thing. It's kind of amusing, from that perspective

I doubt he meant it literally, probably more like he had to slow uncomfortably fast because the self driving car behaved in a somewhat jerky manner. Think about what you might do if you had to slow down in this situation -- you'd try t

Not even just less wealthy people, but anyone who tends to be financially conservative. I don't think there's an economically sensible option to purchase a car like this right now.

I might do that when I can buy a reliable one used for less than $5000. Personally I don't have enough money where financing vehicles is a negligible expense. Did it once...not planning on doing it again.

I'm no fan of Milo (kinda hate the guy honestly), but I'm not sure if "talking with sources about the topic of an article" really qualifies as fraternizing. That sort of thing is somewhat of a job requirement if you inte

I remember seeing an article from them arguing that we get rid of white emoji to punish white people for racism written by someone woman with pink hair and half her head shaved. Ever since then I've wondered if they're actually do

Titles tend to be a bit hyperbolic, I'd imagine the content of the book is a bit better.

I'd be fine with a wealth tax on a national level with restrictions on offshoring cash, but I don't want to steal wealth from everyone in the west to distribute it globally. You'd also have a very difficult time getting natio

It must have, if they were. It's still made from eggs, they just make a bunch of liquid egg and then make it into these shapes and freeze them & ship to restaurants. The scrambled eggs in the big breakfast weren't frozen, thou

Were they ever very innovative? Their initial success was pretty much based on having a bunch of investment capital and using it to kill their competition and grab market share without making profits for many years. Is it really very diffic

It had already been cut via sequestration under Obama (although ironically the Republicans were more to blame for this in my opinion). Couldn't cut much more than that without doing something to improve efficiency. Looks like that isn&

In a sense basic income would be an improvement over this in that the money would be going to everyone instead of primarily to the rich.

Printing money doesn't necessarily increase the debt, it depends on who that money is being loaned to. It could actually reduce the debt relative to GDP via inflation.

I'm beginning to find myself in that situation now. Anywhere from 1.75L to 3.5L of liquor a week. At least for me I think it's because my day to day life is very isolated in addition to having a fairly stressful and unfulfulling j

I thought this was going to be about MMO currency. Very disappointed. Really though, I'm not very surprised this is happening. Desk jobs can be pretty soul crushing. Sometimes I wonder how long it would take for me to learn Pennsylvani

It seems to me that there's a small fraction of people who are into this stuff that are really doing this thoughtfully and for the right reasons, and that the majority really are either pursuing an aesthetic or using this or other soci

It just so happens the work these people do often happens to be bullshitting. So a hustle in that context could just be bullshitting more aggressively.
