Now they are just going to talk about it externally. Apple is fighting a losing battle. Pandora's Box has been opened by the pandemic. Now employees know that they can get the same amount of work done remotely and not be as stressed at

This felt extremely vague. I think your article needs to provide examples of blogs that have utilized SEO well along with the actual costs associated and the quantity of traffic expected with each tier. People learn from example and showing

This seems like another passive income scheme. This bank he's investing with seems very fishy if it's allowing people to take out 100k loans and also have negative account balances for extended periods of time. That's a lot o

This was a fantastic read. He did a very good job explaining the very complex US finance industry. I wasn't even aware that stablecoin is a thing.

It kind of defeats the purpose of competition if it becomes more about who has the most money vs who makes better rockets.

The end of the summary mentions that biologists determined frogs would actually jump out even if the water was gradually brought to a boil. I think a lot of us are really starting to feel that boil with climate change...

It's so stupid. Nuclear power is the only way we can supplement renewables without fossil fuels and it's publicly poison.

They are trying to short change SpaceX to get future contracts with NASA. I guess they can take the loss, which is huge, for their long term prospects.

It is a real shame that nuclear power is an effective energy producer and yet it will always be burdened with public reluctance due to meltdowns caused by preventable mismanagement (Chernobyl) or poor long term planning (Japan is earthquake

It's very interesting he would make this an open letter for the public to see. Outright waiving billions of dollars in payment shows he can afford to take a huge short term loss to get more contracts in the long term. He really wants t

It's going to be interesting to see the outcome of this in China. For-profit tutoring (and schooling) have been so prevalent in the US in the last decade and it would provide evidence on if curbing it would help students on a universal

The carbon emissions reason is just one of multiple the writer gives. They also mention that they don't code in PHP anymore, they had issues handing it off to other maintainers, and the codebase is becoming obsolete with PHP8. It becam

I agree with your assessment here. The crux this entire theory is built on is the auditing. People will find a way to defraud it, especially if it relies on physical evidence of carbonization. It would have to be highly regulated to deal wi

The problem is that Space X is a business. And while I would love to believe that they can bring about an egalitarian future in space, the main goal of any private corporation is to maximize profits. And it doesn't help alleviate my co

Great article. Local journalism should be supported. Corporate-backed news is generally biased and local journalism brings with it more diversity of perspective on a smaller scale.

We are going to see major shortages in the coming months. I work in IT infrastructure and we were told by suppliers that there are going to be major delays in equipment orders due to the pandemic disrupting the supply chain. This is going t

Ah that's a very good point. Thank you!

Very great anthropological argument that "it's human nature to be selfish and self-serving" is a load of nonsense.

Can you explain what you mean? As I understand it, BTC is tied solely to USD for exchange.

Considering that the pandemic has effectively broken overseas supply chains, this would be the perfect time to switch to domestic production. It would help the job markets too.

The difference is that Norway is not replying to internal demand but external demand. They have reduced their own need for fossil fuels. The issue is that other countries are extremely dependent on fossil fuels due to before stated lobbying

This article is so quick to blame a national government when the problem is squarely on oil and gas companies. It's not like the oil and gas industries haven't lobbied for decades to cover up climate change evidence so that the wo

Spending the money they earned by exploiting their workers. You don't acquire billions unless it's at the expense of many. Amazon workers are treated and paid like garbage so that Bezos can go fly in space. At the very least that

The question is what is the end goal? Because you are right. It does cost an exorbitant amount of money and resources. How will it benefit anyone beyond billionaires and corporations? A few satellite launches is literally the only thing I s

There's no incentive to change the status quo. The people who profit off of said policies are the ones who influence politicians and policy makers to keep them in place. The system is very much rigged so that the ultra rich can continu

I think it shows why billionaires shouldn't own news outlets. They become their propaganda machines. Look at WaPo vomiting out puff piece after puff piece for their owner, Daddy Bezos.

You're just making excuses for them. They made a lot of money so they deserve to sit on it and use it just for themselves. I'm not talking about other people, I'm talking about people who only focus on continually acquiring m
