IIRC Steven Tyler is one of those cases. He managed to get _legal guardianship_ of a 16 yo girl when he was 20 something.

That was actually my first line of thought as well, but I could never find a way to do that. My low-level development expertise is pretty low, so perhaps there is a way, but after looking through the USB specification and other USB-developm

I remember when this came out, and was interested in getting one! Unfortunately I was aiming to use it to generate TOTP codes (and replace my authenticator app), but IIRC it needed a RT clock and thus a battery, which was not part of the de

Exactly. That's why it's baffling to see them spend, what? 100-200? million dollars just on Joe Rogan, to then spend 0 dollars in podcast UI improvements. I could imagine taking a Netflix-style approach perhaps, where you fund sma

So I'm not the only one fighting the podcast UI in Spotify! I've been trying to use Spotify for a few podcasts and the UX is just terrible. I can't believe they spent millions of dollars getting Joe Rogan exclusively and then

I remember reading some time ago about a cinema chain that used a technique they called "bullfighter" or similar, that was designed to reduce the customer's anger by having several layers of staff handle the issue. With each

A bit offtopic but I'm wondering what's Google's angle here, by charging so much for these kind of services. They could of course charge 1M USD per request or whatever, but then nobody would use their APIs. And if that's

As someone very far from understanding what is going on, what is the rationale that governments are using to justify not increasing salaries/working conditions? I know it's probably a variation of "there's no money"

Funny that in one of the info cards it says "MILITARY-GRADE SECURITY" and then inside that same card: "Your account is protected by bank-grade encryption and authentication." A unique marketing model nevertheless.

> And throwing off $150B in operating cash flow (6 months). I think stock buybacks are lame but what can they spend this on really? A moon launch and base? It would be great if they could spend a bit of that (dunno, 20B? 40B?) in fixing
