Honestly not sure those are great examples. E.g. Impossible Foods is not an innovator in any sense, just a 'startup' with an average vegan product that got $$ for marketing and pretends to be premium. I'm happy that they got

My big mistake was to use 2FA - more precisely authenticator. Around the same time my old phone broke and i had to change the password. I must have mistyped the password while changing it in both fields and since then have never managed to

If you can't prove the other stuff (easily) you have to have a means to get them on a formality. That's why there's so many questions on the immigration form.

You have some good points on your list, but there are also vast misunderstandings and you clearly have preconceptions of what is 'best' based on your own preferences. To just mention a few - the RMB is indeed in use in a number of

Maybe a stupid question, but do you know whether it is really true that it only got publisher due to his relationships? I can imagine some professors also have an interest to convince students that they are 100% in their power (or at least

Can someone explain to me how this works? Weeks ago they had a backlog of several thousand orders, getting a plane takes years of waiting. Airbus says they still habe a queue of 7000(!) planes to deliver, with only a few cancellations. htt

TL;dr the European Commission proposes a 750bn Euro rescue fund - bigger than the GDP than Poland, Sweden or Belgium - to help countries finance the recovery. Many have described this as Europe's 'Hamilton Moment' as it'

This sounds great for the kids. Does anyone have experience of the combination Wacom/similar with a (cheap) Chromebook?

It's more nuanced. If it's in a public place and not invasive (eg taken through a street window) you have little case to get anything taken down. So no stranger appearing in your Disneyland pictures can force you to delete them.

Then the other group members will wonder why you get stuff free while they have to pay, or they might doubt why you chose that particular pub. If you really need a physical reward for doing something you enjoy it would make more sense to ag

I guess they expect the big money in being either the host of all that or the trusted point linking hosts and clients. I'm not looking forward to the future where Microsoft knows when I read which email and puts content (and later ads)

The thing is the developer already knew they were stolen and resold. So this is likely just a tiny sample of what might be much higher numbers that go undetected. The burden of proof in their model is basically on the developers.

Different times and rules. Britain robbed it's colonies and exploited their people. Doesn't mean the British museum would still do this today (but I'd also not exclude it). In contrast some countries like Germany have started

not Germany specific, but 'universal jurisdiction' is a thing: https://cja.org/what-we-do/litigation/legal-strategy/univers... I can't find much information on this in English, but I believe it

The article is not about domain trading. It's about letting yourself be inspired and pushed by a domain name to try some new venture.

It does not seem as if they will give others access to the data, rather advertisers can go directly to NYT and choose which segments to target. this seems like a more than reasonable approach - actually relevant ads, not pedsonalised ads.

Have a look at the concept "self-compassion”. A good book is e.g. " The mindful art of self-compassion".

But what are those based on? Do you really need to reenter/recalculate them each year? Countries like Estonia prefill the tax filing and they say somewhere above 90% of people don't need to make any changes when they file. Most pe

The problem is that they have to act across borders. Examples: In the EU you don't need to filter pornography the same way as in the US. In the US you don't need to filter personal information (eg individuals' faces) the same

fundamental difference between a business being co-opted by an autocratic state (do x or we take you over/arrest your families/...) and a business choosing to create a certain product that they could simply not have created. A bet

so they have two possible endgames: 1) find a sucker (aka retail investors) that buy a loss-making stock 2) become a monopoly and squeeze everyone to get higher margins (kind of how booking.com pushes hotels to increase their standard price
