A phone given for repair by a non-technical person can be rooted without their knowledge. The repair person potentially can install malware. We cannot assume the owners of the rooted phone themselves have rooted the phone.

Taken to the extreme conclusion, governments can potentially charge different tax rates to different individuals based on their inability to sue or inability to fight back. They may completely forego the notion of income based tax brackets . /s

215 years of sovereignty Or 215 years of colonialism? Are the displaced people able to vote for UK parliamentary elections? Are they UK citizen?

That really depends on the carrier.

That's the point. Now, suddenly carrier has more powers than they should. Having a standard where consumer is in charge is much more desirable than the other way around.

This is more convenient than having to search for the SIM removal tool. Then let the manufacturer know that a SIM tray without the need of SIM removal tool is your preference.

For me, keeping the light in the oven on keeps it bit warm. I haven't measured the temperature though. YMMV.

just wait for smart TVs which are Zoom friendly and come with a camera and microphone built-in.

Recently I had a discussion about an SV company with a friend in Texas. I mentioned to him, the company X is going to do great as they hire very good engineers. His question was - "what does that have to do good engineers?" Go figure ...

Once I went to Stanford to attend Donald Knuth's Annual Christmas Lecture. During the talk he wanted to show some search query on google. What he did next was interesting. He typed yahoo.com in a browser's address bar and then searched for google on yahoo's search to reach to google!!

Can you suggest few readings?

Please just re-read your comment replacing Facebook with either your phone service or email service or USPS. What you said applies to all these three. People are complaining because Facebook gives the perception of connecting people but fails without notifying.

A big reason of income gap is opportunity gap. We keep widening the opportunity gap by adding 'fast lanes' to people who can afford it, rather than improving the situation for all. In this particular case, perhaps, there is no short term solution to improve for all but it makes me little sad anyway.

It is a common case for other iOS device(s) though. iPad in a family is usually shared across family members. I do wish apple add this feature in iOS, for iPads at least.

The entire point of capitalism is not everyone get's what they want and price how that is decided.

You mean protected capitalism - protected by artificial minimum wages put in place by government?

Have you ever looked at the possibility where one's family has to move every year or so because landlord decided to increase rent to 'catch up' with market. This is what it looks like in communities where lot of people wants to move in but no rent control. One can move in but will not have any stability.

Not sure if you tried following for input/output multiplexing - * Create 5 panes, one for each server * Ctrl-b :setw synchronize-panes

This should synchronize the input to all panes i.e. type in any one and it will be sent to all 5. to turn it off, just run the same command again. I don't know if tmux has equivalent synchronize-windows.

Thanks. I do agree better infrastructure will make bike riding safer. In my opinion helmet is to bike what seat belt is to car. In general, I'd agree that people should make their own decisions and government do not need to make laws. But I have met couple of families who do not care about seat belt, even for their kids! How do you make such people understand the value of seat belt? Helmet is perhaps in similar situation. Not everyone is able to understand the value of safety devices and as a society we don't want them or their kids to get injured. Making something a law allows other to help such families - we can simply call out "it's a law"

I guess you are lucky. I had a fall which could had taken me to ER. It happened when I was relatively new to road bike and tried to enter a drive way like a car. Wheel of my bike trammed along the road and sidewalk (about 2 inches high). I lost balance, took a fall on concrete sidewalk. Right side of my helmet took the hit. The impact was severe enough, it was dark (not pitch dark) in front of my eyes for next few seconds. However, I was able to bike back after 15 mins of rest. I can't imagine doing that without the helmet.

There is so much misinformation flying around. Most H1B can change job in 3 months or so. Many do.

So I pay for Cable and I still have to watch endless commercials. Paying for something doesn't guarantee anything.

Well, an extra phrase might be added in the menu where 'Disable Javascript' appears - '(Note: Javascript is not same as Java)'. If users don't know the difference between Diesel and Gasoline, better option is to educate them in context (e.g. handle of fuel pump) rather than closing down all Diesel pumps.

And those will be a different set of kids - next generation.

Let's say some policies are changed in EU and pharmaceutical companies make as much or more profit in EU as in US - do you think they will reduce the cost of drugs in US? Perhaps not - remember they have shareholders. They probably aren't going to say, "oh! we have made enough money on this drug. Let's reduce the price now.".

Fairness is what perceived by consumers or customers. Remember the episode of Apple decreasing the price of iPhone by $200.

yet, ATT & Verizon will not charge less. wait, they will force you to buy a data plan too if you use your unlocked smartphone. Imagine a real state market - take mortgage or pay double for the house if you pay cash.

It will democratize the ads - your corner shop or plumber will start putting similar ads. Subsequently, we will grow immune to these ads as we are now to junk/spam mails (not emails).

Detour would show up as part of the distance calculation (x-axis in the graph).

Does anyone see any discrepancy in third graph, "Rated Range remaining vs. Distance" ? The graph shows the distance from Delaware Supercharge to Milford Supercharge is approx. 200 miles. The car arrived at Milford with almost zero charge left even though projected range was 242 miles after charge at Delaware! Which means battery lasted nearly 42 miles less than the projected distance. Am I missing something?
