The real question for me is how the hell did this company reach $200 billion in annual revenue? Nothing about our economy makes any sense to me.

Alleged expert hawking some kind of blog/newsletter thing doesn't know that no major company is ever going to fire an employee for an honest mistake, especially one that would have had multiple sign offs from around the organization.

You have no idea what you're talking about. The highway-only driver assistance on cars like Fords does not compare at all to what you get on a Tesla with the latest hardware.

I guess I don't understand... why would the SOC manufacturer spend the money on integrating this stuff if they don't intend on also spending the money to enable it on the software side?

I'm not saying the Trump administration is compromised/influenced/managed by Russia but if they were I don't see what they'd be doing differently.

When some Russians do a prompt injection and OpenClaw is threatening to send your NSFW pics to Grandma unless you give it some Bitcoin all you have to do is drag out the negotiations for 49 days!

The planned obsolescence conspiracy theories about the company whose products famously last longer and hold more value than their competitors ring a little hollow.

Meanwhile out here in the real world no one gives two shits and if it was ever discovered a simple "what? I have no idea what you're talking about." would provide all the cover needed.

Many of the threats to a carrier aren’t nation states with a constellation of satellites.

STRs reduced the supply of housing. You’re making my point.

So build more dense housing. It's that easy. Neuter the NIMBYs. Let people build.

Generally these people oppose the building of "luxury housing" because they don't get how ALL housing increases supply/reduces market price. Also the idea of a developer building a kind of... predistressed property has never made any sense to me.

Good lord you people truly don’t have any understanding of what normal people like or why Apple is so successful.

Do YOU go to the gym at all?

I lift four times a week. Two days a week I do intense cardio. One day a week I do something low impact like yoga or a treadmill incline walk. "Active recovery" is not a new concept.

Right on schedule folks, it's a climate topic and we will now have the traditional recitation of the lies.

This is a 600 buck machine. "Just $300-350 more" is a 50% price hike!
