And what exactly do you think the now underemployed is going to do with their time? Before getting too dismissive of the article: ask what happens when there are large numbers of underemployeed young men and women with no money, no jobs, no

You are think of just technical books. You are in the tech/SF bubble. How many tech books make it to the NYTimes best seller list? Zero. Or any best seller list? Zero. Most books sold are not "knowledge books" - they are fict

Completely the correct decision based on the restriction on ebooks. Does anyone have the complete reasoning behind the service designation? It would be cool if ebooks sold without DRM would get the real book tax treatment.

Sure. So what? Most repos I am dealing with are less than 200m. The problem of 1-2 gigabytes with millions of objects is simply not a big problem for most startups companies. Larger companies have the resources to solve this "problem&q

How big do you think MV is? It is only 80K residents now. 50K housing units? Where exactly do you propose to put those units? Really Sunnyvale should get into the act. MV should build denser. But Google does need to contribute serious $ to

Most of the non-tech workers see the only "benefit" of tech workers as higher rents and higher cost of living. Your average worker at Target isn't getting paid a lot. Sure the business owners and landowners are loving it - bu
