Sounded a bit snarky, and avoids the issue really: if wix plays equally they should do what wordpress does and give their code for free. a CEO should know that. The correct reply would be to apologize and build their own editor.

I really dont think it would be a big bother. Most of the time the drivers would accept Uber's proposed price, and i really see no big issue with selecting a driver/fare from a list. IT would also create a entire market for "

I wonder to what percentage US people feel they are threatened by a crazy president. I am under the impression that US has the most impressive checks and balances and nobody is above the laws&constitution (and this act by the FBI seems

I wonder if there is a way to make this thread NOT be flagged to extinction. Perhaps talk only about the technicalities behind this, or compare to distant history.

But that's because today's definition of engineer is narrow while it used to be more broad (e.g. Eiffel was an engineer). An artist is also a craftsman, except he uses his craft to express himself.
