It's really not. It's business and this is potentially very bad for the business. Rather than an ex employees AMA being discussed the discussion has turned roundly onto the response of the CEO. Rather than talking about the $50 mi

California gets ~10% of their water from the Colorado River System. They'll be getting less as more states use their full allocation and the surplus that California has been getting dries up. There is ongoing battling about distributin

I'd take that a step further and put a sensor on every outlet so it would be like a built in kill a watt that you could look at from a household level, circuit level, and then socket level. You could monitor and alert on things that ar

I wasn't aware that work had resumed. It was just a few days ago that kolo reported the layoffs and shut down and I don't catch that very often. It'll be interesting to see if it's the plant or something else.

it's looking more and more like Reno is the location of the battery plant. The governor and Musk have both made statements recently about it and Tesla had something like 300 people working on something here. Work is currently stopped t

Thanks for catching that error, as I typed out asynchronous I was saying to myself "this isn't right, the a is in the dang acronym" and then I was too lazy to double check.

That wouldn't work though. Verizon sells unbalanced services with larger download capacity than upload capacity. So it's simply not likely/possible that their customers can send matching data for what they are requesting. Add

I'd say that wmf addressed it already. Peering points with one side being primarily consumer services are always going to be unequal due to the nature of the end user and the ways in which consumer ISPs provide bandwidth to their custo

Oversubscribing lines has been one of the ways to keep ISPs profitable for years. Streaming video absolutely cuts into the ability to do this of course but I doubt it's the primary issue here. Verizon has every incentive to not add mor

Verizon probably doesn't need to pay Level 3 for the bandwidth. Typically peering points like this are settlement free. In other words it's a voluntary exchange of traffic and each side of the line keeps 100% of the revenue from i

Apple and MS actually shield a ton of their money by having offices in Reno. Microsoft Licensing is on Neil Rd in Reno with Intuit just down the street. Tons of companies have shell corps in Nevada for tax reasons.

I agree they look that way until you start looking at the accounts posting them. That being said a lot of people send newsletters, and a lot of people use MailChimp (we do). MailChimp has been releasing a lot of UI changes lately, including

Audi started making this an option in 2008 (2007?) on their A8 line and was followed by Fisker and Toyota on the Prius. i don't think any of them have it as an option any more. It's just not effective enough.
