A valid point, but I wonder how effective Apple's search engine will be with their stance on user privacy. I'm sure Apple is perfectly content with letting Google do the dirty work. I don't think there's risk of apple b

that's a good point regarding price points... but I didn't realize the price went up to $8000 for a fridge. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEDxRY4xcCI Life is Good indeed.

I think it's more about prevention going forward, and devaluing its worth in secondary market. Sure, it might still be worth something, but only in parts. Given how rapidly TV models change, parts = basically worthless.

Seems like LG makes better appliance than Samsung in general... but I guess mileage varies between model and customer.

I'm guessing if all cars become Waymo right now, there will probably be reduction in vehicle fatality by 99%. But people have hard time accepting with the notion that unmanned vehicle may be part responsible for that 1%.

This particular drug is Intravenous Infusion Therapy. It's IV fluid and it takes up to 1 hour. And it's administered by nurses trained on IV, not physicians. It can be done at Infusion therapy centers.

Are you sure Medicare negotiating drug price through Part D? I know the bill has been out there forever, but it's far from being enacted. https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3

Click-bait headline. It doesn't say Medicare has decided to cover it yet, it's under review. And only some privately administered Medicare plans have decided to cover it. Some hospital systems are doubting the efficacy and refuse

Because someone still has to pay for the drugs through tax and/or subsidized through paycheck (if you have private insurance). You might pay 6 euros per package, but that could be a 50 euro drug. The 44 euro difference is being made u

Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way. While the article had good nuggets of information, I didn't find it credible enough for me to take a chance on applying in real life. Maybe it's the general negative tone.

I agree... I'm shocked at how onerous the rules are. I wonder what the true market price of these places would be, without all these restrictions.

"Apple's privacy measures, such as not scanning your Cloud photos, is what helps enable CSAM." this is what baffles me. I'm sure a good number of iphone customers have their photos automatically uploaded to icloud. For a

Unless you were on cusp of retirement, I too believe that people will return back to work. I also think that there will be some price to pay in terms of inflated pay packages and promotions people are getting these days. Some are warranted

Wow. Knowing this, I don't think I can live there. Scary. The video paints ominous picture for DR being due for a 8+ one, right through their most heavily populated area.

Yeah, all they need to do is follow suit with what everybody else is doing and scan once images are uploaded onto iCloud. Scan every single file. I don't care. Because once in iCloud, files are sitting on Apple's server and hard

This is a potentially sensitive and conflicting topic. I don't think people can take strong view on this in real life for multiple reasons, one of them being pedophilia is a disorder that is not super uncommon. The fact that WSJ did a

I don't think they have to compromise on the CP protection. They can just go along with what other cloud storage providers have been doing all along... that is, "we won't snoop into your phone, because that's yours. but

I'm pretty sure all cloud storage providers have good idea about who has what pirated content already.

If they cared about privacy so much, why wouldn't they just alert you and block you from uploading in the first place? By this becoming such a hot topic, I think this will push the activity to more underground. I bet most people didn&#

I don't think Apple has insidious reason, but their implementation can come across as betrayal. Unlike Android phone, iphone will know about your uploading potentially problematic image beforehand. Yet, it will not alert you or block

They knew they were being hypocritical, so they were reluctant to even divulge the fact that other cloud providers have already been doing it; they wanted to position themselves as the pioneer. I can't imagine how they thought this wou

Considering the ingredients, it's very underpriced. Yet, it's also hard to price it too high, because at the end of the day, it will taste like very tasty fried rice, with expensive ingredients laid on top. If you go too high, you

I think it's 50 | 50. Most likely, T Mobile designers knew this and chose to design it this way. If they didn't notice it immediately, it would've come to light during user testing or even QA testing.
