Trade restrictions are not good for our economy. Huawei and ZTE's main competitors are mostly US based companies so they will see protection from competition with this policy. While you may see the national security threat as credible,

I have a Onewheel and I was ejected after it suddenly died even though the battery reported a half charge. The accident was not my fault and I was injured from it. I don't believe the product is as safe as you imply.

It depends on the buy back price for if this scheme benefits customers or not. Lets say I'm nabisco and I tell grocers that instead of putting my product on sale and potentially take a loss that I'll buy back that product. The ris

Building your modern crud app is still incredibly hard to get right while still being performant in any language. IMO, neither ruby nor the database are at fault. - Materialization pipelines are hard, especially ones that need transactional

Foreign keys also let the query optimizer make better query plans. This is actually a bigger deal than most people think, the query optimizer can rewrite to semi joins or even eliminate joins completely if the optimizer has better guarantee

I get not wanting to add yet-another-system to reduce operational complexity but it seems more economical to use a system like Flink to do a time windowed join and emit single records to be written to a persistence store. The Flink time win

I often think about the role of universities in the education process. It seems that universities are just profit maximizing entities. They don't care about student's education unless it impacts their reputation or ability to make

To focus on social welfare for a moment, we don't do enough to offset the effects of a major industry leaving a town. Many people don't relocate to continue to be productive and so we end up with large amounts of poverty in those

Your argument falls under the lump of labour fallacy, a lot of new jobs were created when we had cheaper chips. If it was a loss then it wouldn't have been an economic loss :)

US consumers got a lot of cheap chips from their subsidy. US businesses had to close because they couldn't compete but US consumers still won in the end. I wondering if the US government will have to subsidize this industry in perpetui

Glad to see the US subsidizing chips for the entire world market. It's about time we pay our fair share to give back to the subsidizes that asian countries have been putting in.

Price has more to do with willingness to pay than with cost. Nature is a prestigious intuition so people are willing to pay to get published there. It also sets a barrier to get a paper reviewed. I hear you that it shouldn't be this wa

I tend to drink caffeine with I need to recruit mental energy. I find I don't get compulsive cravings to drink coffee and I can drink a single cup of coffee and be fine for the entire day. If anyone knows why this is, I'm all ears

The recommended dosage on the label was enough for me to see full benefits, 600mg. The effect is within an hour. As other people in the thread said, it may not be without side effects. The FDA has not approved it as a dietary supplement. P

Apple works with the US government too. Apple operates in China so it'd be prudent to work with the government for mutual benefit. I'm not sure I see why this is being framed as a bad thing.
