What's more likely, Google break their commitment or they provide extra patches past their commitment.

I did a similar thing with the air gradient diy kit. That these are pi based run full Linux and allow changes over time is is really compelling.

Tesla has pushed the needle but the automotive was trending towards electric before Tesla. How much energy have the on grid batteries saved?
It isn't an outlandish thing to say that those companies deliver a disproportionate amount of hype to results as other companies in the same space.

Seems analogous to say it's stealing TV when you don't watch the commercials, or clipping out ads before reading a paper? It doesn't make sense. I have control over what code is run on my computer. Allowing one party to show me content and blocking others isn't stealing or even in a grey area.

I think it eventually does get deleted.
> Compaction is an online operation which reclaims the space used by the deleted and duplicate needles (needles with the same key). It creates a new haystack by copying needles while skipping any duplicate or deleted entries. Once done it swaps the files and in-memory structures.

If the property is more valuable there is no bubble. I do agree some lenders might get this wrong, but an overall increase is pretty reasonable I think.

I think AirBnB would be a force to help people keep their housing, driving rents up but allowing people flexibility to generate more income if they are falling back. I'm interested to see how the company responds.
Re:Slack comes to Linux as a snap

I'd like to hear from anyone that is using snaps. I'm currently using Ubuntu 17.10 and have heard of them but haven't noticed them anywhere. Is it something I should consider using? Generally happy with slack in the browser currently.

The hyperbole around NN on here and reddit has been annoying. My network carrier already does some anti net neutral things that I like.
I do think the market for ISPs has failed. Regulatory patching won't always be able to stay up to date. The government should make it easier to start an ISP.

Yep. I am pretty left leaning on environmental and economic issues. But the tax credit from the start was a redistribution of wealth upwards. A side effect being that more hybrid cars were bought.

There are differences between sexes and because of this there are some ways that laws etc should treat them differently.
