You just need to risk your life and getting thrown in jail.

Because Cuba needs a boogy man for all of its economic woes. Europeans and Canadians have not had travel or trade restrictions like in the United States and routinely go there for vacation yet the Cuban economy is still in ruins.

When I moved into my apartment building (only 4 units) the first day linkedIn started asking me if I knew my neighbor (who happens to work at LinkedIn) even though we had not had any contact. Best guess was the linkedIn app knew we were in

My wife lived in Cuba from when she was born up until 2005 when her grandmother was finally able to get a family reclamation to go through. She knows many who were thrown in jail just for being associated with people who the government was

Conan almost looks like Caesar Flickerman on the streets of Havana. My wife is Cuban, I grew up in Miami. Cuba is a beautiful country with an interesting culture and a extremely corrupt oppressive government. The government of Cuba lies som

If I recall Costa Rica has a 100% import tax on cars. Not everyone has or can afford a car there. What would be really interesting is if they were to remove or lower that tariff for electric vehicles it could for example make a Nissan Leaf

I am an engineer and I have built some rather impressive software in my time. However I grew up in design, I worked in design, my diploma says design. On what side of this line do I belong? I feel that not everything is as black and white a

The employer does not benefit from having an employee hanging around just because they can't afford to exercise their options. If they want to leave but can't because they have this huge potential for loss hanging over them does t

Interesting this is built using gevent since in Python 3.4 things are moving away from gevent in favor of Asyncio. The last time I checked (a few months ago) gevent is only supported on Py2.7 unless you're using a fork that has patched

Agree++ The iPhone 6 Packaging was terrible. Way too easy to drop the phone since it was in a really shallow groove right at the top.

by kenrikm 12y ago
There is an entire segment of videos on youtube dedicated to "unboxing" implying great packaging is not "really" important I think would be disingenuous. That's not to say that you need to get to Apple level packagi

I was not even aware "Paki" was a slur that refers to Pakistani individuals and never would have made the connection and I'm doubtful the average person would either. It's clearly a packaging company and so the mind make

Or Henry Ford.. If the car were inveted today I'm pretty sure it would be illegal. Again, 40k people die per year in cars yet no one blinks.

What if I fly and record footage and then sell the SD card for $500.. I was selling the SS card not the footage. What an interesting court case this is going to turn into, I'm not sure how many hairs need to be split before someone rea

Reasonably a drone flying at 50 - 100ft is of no danger to full size aircraft unless it's within a airports flight path which is illegal anyway. There are 40k deaths in cars each year and yet even with widespread use of model aircraft

by kenrikm 12y ago
Practically any drone that can cary a gopro could also fly to 2000ft and you're limited to 500ft by the rules anyway. The issue is the FAA has always allowed model aircraft however now the technology has advanced to the point that thos

I've never run into that issue, ~90% of our users are on iOS8 or above. With iOS you can safely support the current version and last version while only pissing off 2-3% of the customers which is exceptional compared to most platforms.

Because they are trying to nudge you into upgrading. Lets face it, the fact that Apple ruthlessly kills hardware after 3-4 years is both a benefit to Apple (sells more hardware) and developers (don't have to support old versions of the

I have the feeling that the gold watch portion will actually be significantly smaller portion of the 5K price (if it is 5k) Something like $999 - $1999. The rest of the price will come in the bands at 2 - 4K each.

Lets not forgot that EA took the BioWare name slapped it on a completely different studio and released mediocre games with it. DICE is in fact the exception, though they are like the golden goose, then consistently produce quality titles, I

Financing AAA games through a studio is similar to dealing with a record label, the cards are stacked agains you unless you really make it big.

This is just my opinion, though semi-backed by conversations I've had with people who work at EA. EA Gameplan in a nutshell. 1) Force studio to make changes to a game that benefit the EA but have no tangible (or very little) benefit to

Yeah the standard flat rate fee for motherboard related issues from Apple is just about $300. With this in mind it's usually a better idea to take them to Apple then use third party shops. I've had the exact same issue happen to m
