On a well managed farm, you can get 1 cow per 1.25 acres of land, hanging weight about 750lbs. That yields about 750k kcal, which is enough for 2100 calories per day for an entire year. Nutritionally, you can get all of your fat or protein

Raising cattle in most parts of the country relies on renewable resources. Raising almonds in CA requires heavy use of fertilizers and depletes the regional water supplies.

There's nothing to update. The mRNA allegedly encodes for the 'spike' protein, which is the infection vector. The theory at the time was that by targeting that protein specifically, if the virus were to mutate, it would los

Slave labor. Literal slave labor in developing nations with absolutely no environmental controls, a humanitarian crisis on a scale never before seen.

Let's not give NPR a pass here. They routinely present junk science as fact and never suffer any repercussions.

I doubt France has enough military power to defeat Ukraine, let alone the whole Soviet Union.

There is no NATO without the US occupation of Europe. If the US pulls out of NATO, it will fold like the Afghan security force.

Germany is still occupied by Americans. We're still defending you from the same foreign adversary, Russia. If the US pulled out of Germany in 1965, what would have become of the place? IMO, it's clear. The communists would have

When I was coming up, Solaris was as popular as Linux at the time. There was no option to install nano on production machines for Solaris. It was vi or find a new job.

5% of $10/ride would be $0.50/ride. Maybe they could charge a $0.50/ride flat fee for rides under $10. CC processing fees, retail, are about 3% and $0.30 each, so that can be added on to uber's cut as well. They did 5B

I'm not familiar with this specific story, but the FBI did spy on the Trump campaign, it's not a 'conspiracy theory.'

Let's say they have 1M rides per day for an average of $10/ride. That's $10M in revenue per day. If they charged a flat 5%, that would be $500k in revenue per day, or $182.5M per year. Of course, they actually did about 13M

You're forgetting the most important thing about Uber: they disabled the automated braking system in their 'self driven' cars and killed a person.

Where I live it's less than 60% vaccination for adults. Most of the 3rd world is not vaccinated. Vaccinating the entire planet was never a solution to a respiratory virus that will mutate quickly. The vaccination campaign was always

You think it's stupid, I think it's poignant. The situation we're in now was all perfectly predictable. Bad science, bad models, and bad medicine from the jump. The government will never admit it's failures.

The best way for you to come out ahead is to build the software yourself (you retain the IP) and license the software to your friend. You should work out a licensing agreement based on revenue (kinda like the app store, Apple always gets 3

If there's an IP exposed on the internet, you can just send it tcp payloads. The end destination will silently drop them, but it doesn't mean people can't send you gigs of useless data.

I think there's some synergy in reducing management structure to save costs on Heroku and use it as a revenue stream. Also, salesforce has a large enterprise sales force, so this is another product that can be sold by the same team.

Laptops are completely commoditized, of course you would struggle with profitability there. For a company the size of Valve, building these devices probably carries very little risk. The biggest risk is the software, which they were going
