"If insurance is priced right..."

Aka if we priced insurance at the right level. You'd likely see people stop buying homes on some of these flood plains. As insruance would cost too much.

If Insurance is priced right who cares. Your insurance factors in the risk of loosing the home, and should ensure the insurance company always wins long term.

Probably no qa. Lots of tech companies put qa on the developer

But the 4G towers have less bandwidth than the coax network. So if everyone used 4G for home internet speeds would be worse.

With 5G and recent increase in cell tower coverage. We are almost there.

4G offers enough speed to replace my home internet connection, however aggregate bandwidth at the cell towers prevented this.

I assume with 5G we're just about at the point where you could ditch the home internet connection and go 100% cellular.

There is a lot of ageism in this industry. I'd be curious if SWE at FAANG is equivalent to football players in the NFL.

Aka, Sure you might make more but what's the earnings over total career?

YAML.

All the benefits of JSON with none of the negatives.

SNAP is up 105% YTD.

I wouldn't discount that company yet. Their market cap is actually fairly well priced right now, and I'd wager they are under-valued (assuming they execute well over next 6 months).

Uber needs SDC, alphabet doesn't. Alphabet will not risk a company ending lawsuit due to SDC...uber is more than happy to bet it all on SDC if that is the sole way to become profitable.

Uber vs Waymo will be inetersting for sure.

Most buildings last more than 20 years. I get you can make rennovations...however if you plan for the future during construction those rennovations can be much cheaper.

For example making their be excess circuit breaker capacity during construction doesn't cost much and enables ev charging to be added at a later date for less money than if that spare electrical capacity wasn't installed

People have no clue what plane they are in.

Look at the razor phone sales....i'm not sure it'd actually of been a best seller.

I think the issue is what makes a good gaming platform doesn't make a great phone. Look at the nintendo switch, it'd make for a poor phone...yet its a great gaming device.

Same goes for almost every single blue state.

Especially for California.

It's a national pension crises.

Which might make this the best buy of all the recent IPOs

Why not house these criminals in a cheaper cost of living area? Lower cost, provide jobs & services to other states, win-win?

I get the visiting hours being harder on families. But look at mississipi which costs 49.79/day or 18k/year [1]. With a 57k/year savings you could buy air travel for up to 50 visits per year.

What happens if EU found to be violating GDPR. Does it fine itself 5% of tax rev?

With said company owned by apple and paying apple for licensing fees that just so happen to be equivalent to its yearly rev.

That's easy enough to circumvent.

Google could easily come in here.

Note I work for Google but have no knowledge of Googles PWA products or PWA roadmap

It's likely that a given plane gets more incidents at the start of its life. It might not be statistically significant

Curious to learn about your websocket CDN needs. Mind elaborating on the use case.

We do get x% of targeted ad rev. just isn't passed as USD, and instead paid by giving a free product.

+1 us gov Does this for agriculture. Ensuring that farmers have a price floor by purchasing surplus

I don't think his actions are as malicious as the media portrayed. But that's not why I added my comment.

The reason I say it's a bold claim is that I don't think he even makes the list of worst people on the earth. There's literally people Committing genocide. I would never put Mr. Skrelli in the same category as a murderer.

Why do you say this? That's an incredibly bold claim.

Top Commentors of all time. tptacek is at 1st place with 33839 comments.

+1. Noticed this trend as well

You get the best discount by paying fully upfront. If you do this, the AWS bill doesn't show the RI on your monthly bill what-so-ever. Leading to a suprise 3 years down the road.

A lot of people don't realize that Reserved Instnaces don't show up on your monthly invoice. So once every 3 years you're hit by a large bill for RI renewal.

I'm fairly sure that the volt is more reliable and requires less maitenance than teslas & many other gas cars.

Its a very reliable car.

The volt was ~20-23k all in. I do think GM did a snafu by not advertising the fact you get State & Fed tax credits, and unlike tesla the price is negotiable.
