I think there should be an UBER competitor ,that really helps cities build their own clone effectively. If that's possible politically , it would be interesting : the cities would have regulatory power to win over UBER, this very criti

Even if they lose, won't the laws change to give them these powers ? I don't see something as potentially risky as drones running around unregulated.

We're probably the last population targeted by this phone. It probably targets seniors or heavy prime users.

Since there are actor libraries like akka targeting the JVM and claiming to offer similar benefits, why should someone prefer erlang?

YZF,why can't we start from an optimized FPGA - i.e. small memory blocks spread all around with massive bandwidth and low latency, and find a way to give decent enough access to the cpu to all that memory ? And yes i know that the cpu

Cover looks cool. Seems like the sort of thing amazon would like to launch next - with a quick launch button to it's flow app - as a way to spread the new firefly button("push to visual search") functionality faster.

Maybe the reason amazon prices that way, is that it's really expensive ? It seems that the most expensive thing here would be the mayday service. And maybe it's the killer feature here? One big reason why seniors buy the iphone is

Another thing that amazon can do with a phone is offer better service: 1. It could deploy it's mayday service , to get you a customer support rep on your mobile , which will help you install that TV. Rep would also have access to the p
