I'd mod this up if I could. The extra middle men all have to be fed as well.

Compared to local stores, but most of the stuff on there is available cheaper from AliExpress or some other outlet. Often brands have outlets on eBay, for example.
For firing the Woz and canceling the IIgs line
Hallucinations per second?
Baby faced giant boobed copyright infringing soft porn images per paying customer?
Times it tells the user to kill themselves per chat?
Are we measuring AI by how much energy it wastes now?
You can tell it wasn't an iPhone by the way that the quote marks aren't messed up.
Lack of competition. Amazon isn't cheap, and they rely on people being locked into their high prices. That's what Prime is, a way to encourage you to pay more for stuff.
They probably tested polystyrene because it's used in farming.
Back with the original Mac, Jobs wanted it to have zero expandability. The engineers had to sneak it in.
Jobs really popularized it though. The PC thrived on being an open platform, and most systems at least allowed third party apps if it was practical.
Jobs actually didn't invent the smartphone, he made a feature phone. The original iPhone didn't have third party apps, it was similar to other touch screen phones of the era. He resisted allowing third party apps until it became obvious that there was a lot of money to be made.
How about when schooling was introduced? The population went from largely illiterate to largely literate. More books were written, more books were bought.
Women tend to experience greater levels of poverty though, so I'm not sure you can say that men get more stress due to earning. On average, obviously.
Maybe women are just better at admitting that their relationships have reached an end, and dissolving them. Maybe them being less likely to have children provides less incentive for them to stay together.
Marriage for life is mostly a religious concept, it's not necessarily the best or healthiest or ideal model for human relationships.
The delivery robots I've seen and the ones in TFA seem like they wouldn't do as much damage as a cyclist at low speeds. Aside from the low speed, they are blunter than a narrow wheel or handlebar, so the impact is spread over a wider area. They should have plenty of sensors to avoid that though. The main improvement I'd make is to have the wheels enclosed, rather than open.
Swyer Syndrome is a specific result of these kinds of chromosome issues. It's not the totality of them. It's not hard to imagine that if someone can have different parts of their reproductive system develop different sex characteristics, that it's also possible for the brain to develop different sex characteristics to the rest of the body too.
I'm not sure where you get "several percent" from, most estimates are under 1%. Even if this is similar to the number of gay and lesbian people, or the number of left handed people, in that it recovers to the natural level once social pressure is removed, several percent seems like a very high estimate.
It seems intuitively obvious to me, which means that it might be wrong. -- Chris Torek
