Anti trust law suit and PR campaign against Google. Problem is that it likely cost way more than he can afford. Anything else effective is illegal.

Many of the first times I used a hammer I hit my own fingers. That doesn't mean a hammer is a bad tool, it meant I had to learn how to use it. Other people get value out of these tools.

I have been thinking about this on-and-off since I first read this on a blog somewhere - and all I can think is that we would have regged up higher phone bills, but probably we would have had to adapt more to working not just from home, but

This can be solved easily: give them a task they excel at, such ah going up against a conventional foe. Take on Russia and force them out of Ukraine. Show the world just how competent the US military really is.

Why? That would imply that they are pretty good for most things - better than what we have now.

I am sorry about your brother. When we talk about these things it is always assumed that we want our family to have access to our digital lives after we die. I have lots of pictures from shared memories that I want my family to have - and t

If I read a book and learn something from that I have updated a neural network in my brain. You don't get paid for that (I am not, as an example, sharing any of my income with the people who wrote my college books). If I write a non-fi

Would it? Remember TV competes with online news. Fox biggest competitor isn't NBC, it is Breitbart, The Dodge Report or Real truth network. And you are never going to get the fairness doctrine to apply to those that are online. You cou

I don't think you can really say anything is to blame for this: people follow incentives and the incentives are to yell higher and higher to be heard over all the noise of everybody else and to create the most insane headlines to be he

You can get a license when deaf, but to be honest my AirPods pro didn't dampen the sound as much as my current car does, so thats a red herring.

If you institute that rule, every tabloid in the US will immediately feed pictures of people being separated from their dogs. You will have a lynch mob on your hands in five minutes flat and anyone who supports you will have the same. It&#x

It doesn't make sense to have shelters in SF. It is the most expensive (or close to it) real estate in the US. You can get the homeless a private room in some places for the cost of a single shelter. Now if someone has a job, you can&#

At this rate of change anything twenty years out is essentially impossible to estimate. There are commercial companies working on Fusion power. We may have electrified everything by then, we may have painted the dessert white or we may be t

I mean that is two fucking big ones to get wrong, no? Would maybe be interesting to see some data to look back and see how correct they are in general, but to be practically useful it would have to be quite a lot better than chance.

You can host them at apple if you have iCloud+, the cheapest of which is 0.99. MS charges you about half of Gmail (through resellers) if you don't want the office programs installed and about the same if you want that included. Zoho ma
