Definitely. It’s the only reason I’d buy. I’ve got thousands of photos and I need to search by individual or by combinations (eg, “what’s that picture with grandma, grandpa, and uncle”)

How valid are those statistics? Lots of medical procedures are just estimates. And it’s not like the outcomes are random so that <1% bad outcome with unknown causes could be 100% for a gene she has. Her fear isn’t completely irrational a

Is OP in those markets? I think practically it doesn’t matter. This is two people selling something for $20 (or maybe $50, I can’t tell). They tell you beforehand, so you know. It’s unlikely they operate in jurisdictions that force software

Also the model of squarspace is that they have your site and you can’t port it to another provider. So usually a customers options are “pay the new price or rebuild your site.” And there’s lots of small businesses who could probably afford

I’ve noticed this cycle for the past 30 years on the internet where a useful thing starts out really simply (host a BBS, or host a billion pdfs forever). It’s not trivial, but it seems like it should be pretty low resource. Then people get

I think a better solution is exurbs where we have suburban clusters of low to medium density housing but centered around hubs in the middle of nowhere instead of radiating out of a major metro area. This is much cheaper but still gives “cul

It’s the “Mostly” part that sucks. What’s the price difference between 8 and 16? Like $3 in wholesale prices. This just seems like lameness on Apple’s part.

Feel free to suggest something more effective than ozempic. Saying “Japan (4.5%) can do it so Germany (19%) should stop being so fat” isn’t very helpful. [0] The goal is to reduce obesity. It’s not like we can’t also attempt systemic change

Trademark also doesn’t apply to facts. And if data is published on the open internet then privacy is most likely not an issue. The genealogy is already published in the open. So I don’t think those elements are relevant to the conversation

Actually, it does. Facts can’t be copyrighted. If I find facts on the public internet, it’s legal to sell and use in most jurisdictions around the world. If I don’t want the world to see material, I don’t give it away for free to everyone.

I’m still waiting for a story 20 years from now when they finally raise the hotdog price and the old CEO is 90 and kills the CEO who raised the price. Or maybe it’s not the CEO he threatened, but a new one.

In the US if a doctor prescribed a brand name, the Rx works for the generic as well. For me, it usually happens automatically at the pharmacy with no action on my end.

Not reasonable if it prevents the minuscule amounts required for inhalers. A more nuanced regulation would limit the production volume if there are still valid use cases.
