In that sense, having the perfect profile, or at least an elaborate or detailed one, may be a red flag.

Fox is known for the "People are saying" propaganda that makes something seem like it's everywhere to build consensus.

I was going to criticize his posting frequency, but on the other hand...he's getting more done for the tech world than many of us ever will. Maybe we should be the ones submitting and talking about the 4 day work week more often.

Can we also offer tax credits to encourage making the next hardware innovation hub somewhere other than Phoenix, Arizona ? I thought the southwest is being ravaged by the effects of climate change (120+ degree weather, massive droughts)

by tolbish 5y ago
Definitely misleading. It should say "Amazon will reduce its dev. revenue cut..."
