Leave it to SF to try to regulate a luxury like individual food delivery. An individual has to go and wait on your specific order at a restaurant and take it to your door, that's less efficient than a normal pizza delivery. It's n

Being vaccinated doesn't stop an individual from spreading it. It just prevents them from being severely affected. Vaccinations have been open to 18+ for long enough now. If you're not vaccinated at this point then you either can&

What Apple is doing here is the free market solution to invasive tracking. The GDPR was the government's solution to that. I'd much prefer the Apple solution which allows for a company to be _rewarded_ for taking a voluntary stanc

I know the meaning of the saying. But it doesn't say how they betrayed us. Mentioning that they introduced a cryptocurrency is much more descriptive.

If they did what you propose do you think it would incentivise or disincentivise companies on the future to produce medicines in that country? It seems clear to me that a company would move out if they spent millions+ researching a vaccine

I own a Honda with Honda Sensing driver assist from 2 years ago. I've since turned all of the so-called features off. It will randomly hit the brakes when there's nothing at all in the way. I've had it jerk the steering wheel

By the government subsidizing milk production you are in a small way,via taxes, supporting the dairy industry. If you're vegan for health reasons I assume you don't care, but if you are for ethical reasons I think that should make
