Given the sensitive nature of cameras in homes, I think Ring should require 2FA.

TSMC's 5 nm node is on track for high volume in Q2 2020[1]. They also have the announced 6 nm which they expect most clients to transition to[2]. If Intel's 10 nm is equivalent to TSMC's 7 nm then their 6 nm should be noticeably better even before 5 nm starts shipping.

I thought MCAS was so the flying characteristics were the same as the previous 737 model to avoid recertifying?

> Even at 20x the failure rate, flying in a Max -- even with an unmodified MCAS -- is still vastly safer than driving on a per-distance-travelled basis.
I don't think people are making the comparison of Max vs driving. They are making the comparison of Max vs other air planes.
The US Supreme Court ruled that tomatoes are considered vegetables for tax purposes under the Tariff of 1883 in Nix v Hedden.
