   Aren't the airpods independent of each other? Sooner or later one will end up with only one working. Apple just created a mess for no gain for the users.

   I had no idea what LeEco was and not interested in Moto stuff. Apple is getting more flak because there are way more people with iPhones that would love to keep using their headphones without the need for another cable, which is ironic when

    How much modularity do you need for the Fairphone 2 to be called modular? iFixit thinks it is quite modular[0] with it's 10/10 score. [0]: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Fairphone+2+Teardown/52523

    Of course it is luck. When they decide to do something new they never know if it's gonna work. If it doesn't work out or if it does work out tons of people come afterwards with tales of "they were stupid if they thought that

    Imagine how much science would have Einstein done if he was sent to the camps. Of course luck is not everything but it is still a huge part of the equation. Just being born where he was born helped Pasteur a lot.

    I'd call him being born in the US in a kinda wealthy family a huge amount of luck. I never said that what he did is a small feat, but let's be real if he was born in the slums of India none of his smart would have been useful.

    And also we need to start publishing negative studies way more.

    Add to that the impossibility to publish negative studies. Science really needs to get its shit straight.

    You ask that like it is something new. Reproducibility[0] is something at the core of science. The problem these days is that spending time doing replication is not glamourous and will not help you get funds. [0]: https://en.wiki
