No need for the USB-A. Just switch to C. You won't need to orient your power cord, and you'll have more throughput If you maintain the USB-A, users will keep using it instead of switching to the superior alternative and driving pr

Again, you're just remarking on a temporary transition state. Even if the scenario you described happened, it would still be a far superior alternative to what we have now.

Stay away from Atlanta if you value quality of living. Look to places like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Minneapolis, Columbus, etc.... big healthcare areas without being the biggest sprawl on the planet or having insane cost of living.

I've noticed a lot of people complaining about USB-c and having to buy adapters or whatever. USB-c is a transitory period as we move to a state of being where "crap does anybody have HDMI to DVI" or whatever is non-existent.

Wait what? D.C. Is incredibly expensive and also hasn't some of the worst traffic in the country. I love D.C. But not sure I'm following your reasoning here....

It's typically more expensive to replace somebody. And if there's no reason to fire you... why would they?

Looking at the post, it looks like it was something leaked on a website not the OS. At least it did to me.

Hm. I'm not really sure that's a good way of looking at it. I think comparing manufacturers is a more apt comparison. How does Apple compare to Samsung to HTC to (now) Google? but even if you want to look at the market share by op

Well it's ok because it's a function bar, which is barely used on any Mac at all, aside from (as others have pointed out) odd cases or people who are super dedicated to some sort of function mapping. The right click thing is astou

Well, they say that the economy has never gotten in the way of a war. I wouldn't completely rule it out. Most likely there would be some sort of skirmish, but not a full war. But do recall that people said the same thing before World W

> Respectfully, that's absolutely ridiculous. As you can see, even now those with degrees are only 30% of the population. The unemployment rate is nowhere near 70%, I can assure you. Yes, people are employed without a college degree

Sort of true... I've actually seen hotels list rooms on AirBnB in San Francisco. The logic is that the type of people who are looking at AirBnB are looking at a specific price range, great location, good value, etc... . So if you'

The "real" problem here is that THEY think we can do what they did. Want to get a job? Have to get a college degree, hence a lot more people in college. Even with home ownership I don't think the issue is as simple as urbaniz

We were discussing the United States in that context, I thought. Hopefully this was clear as I mentioned 4 years duration (1941-1945 versus 1939-1945) and the resulting economic prosperity which was heavily weighted toward the United States
