"The wars of the future will not be fought on the battlefield or at sea. They will be fought in space, or possibly on top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forth today remember always your duty is clear: To build and maintain those robots."

More like I want my phone to play music in the car. I don't want FM or AM.

I'd be ok with an aux dongle in a worst case as the only way to play sound.

The people who got more money had 1500 less income ... because they were ahead by 10500.

And the kicker ... "with participants’ partners reducing their hours worked by a comparable amount" - which means a household isn't *required* to be a 2 household income. (or 2 FTE household) ... Which gives leverage/time to care for family.

Can someone make a no frills dumb EV?
- Radio is bluetooth or Apple/Google car play.
- Digital Speedometer read out
- Everything else analog buttons
- Any special engineering is for sound road noise prevention

Many scholarships are based on maintaining various GPA's (like a B average instead of a passing C).

Changing the grading scale could easily destroy affordability.

1) Transaction time under 3 seconds
2) Cost less than 2% of purchase price

And that's just to compete with tap to pay credit cards or apple/google pay.

And if a credit card, you get fraud detection, ability to simply reverse / dispute transactions, and some other misc features.

So just to be considered - you gotta be better than 1,2. But fraud support is also a HUGE value add.

If a "rewrite" of software of this complexity is done - they better hire 2 journalist to document the entire process as it spectacularly fails in time and cost overruns.

Yeah! Get off my lawn!

Redhat is the crown jewel of IBM and the only thing which may keep the IBM name alive.

Wasn't Theranos smoke and mirrors where they never had a real working product? In which case - is their patent valid?

That's not how TLS works. At most you expose the hostname you connect to. All path parameters in the GET request are encrypted. And it doesnt matter if GET/POST/PUT.

If you think Tesla is a car company - then it's overvalued.

If you think Tesla is a battery company that happens to sell cars - then the valuation is closer to correct.

The real key to their offering is batter management. Taking tons of little batteries as commodities and making them appear as one big battery. Then resizing that big battery for accomplishing things which at the time was expensive. Such as powering a car or a house.

Apart from IP addresses (and DNS lookups) ... what can they sniff and sell? If we HTTPS all the things ... they wont really have access to as much as we think they do.

What you want are metrics. So while you cant get access to the systems ... you can (probably) dictate everything you need to measure and monitor. After you have lots of data points, then you can report the crap out of it to start making i better.

Make all management distributions a taxable. Or better ... make all management distributions above a % of education payouts at a taxed penalty. Then the donors will want more accountability since some money is going to the government instead of fund managers.
