In the top 10 most sold vehicles in USA 8-9 are trucks if I remember correctly. Ford F150 and Chevy Silvardo are typically number 1 and 2 consistently for decades. At that scale everything is likely to be diverse. For the soyboys drinking t

Common sense is the first casualty when any topic has political bias to it. This comment demonstrates that. Large vehicles are important part of American economy and mostly driven by blue collar workers doing their work. For example things

It does not have to go to NYC at all. If Waymo can show profitability is some city it is good enough. If it gets love in one city is is good enough for the rest of the world to put a red carpet before them.

Apple will come up with a car to signal wealth. Like a $20K camry disguised in $200K white colored unrepairable car which will demand money if you want to drive it outside your city.

Only if they do their current business well others can create effective competition for Amazon. It took me 3+ hours to just get a label from their website for a special hardware I had to ship. Fun part is that after I signup and create and

There is a reason why layoffs always happen as a surprise and kept a secret. Now everyone thinks they might get laid off. The folks who are easily employable will switch. This might be the end of Pixar.

Common sense. EVs are amazing but they are not where close to being practical replacement for ICE engines. Governments should stop subdizing rich people's EVs and insteead help make more efficient and cheaper ICE engines.

> That's only as secure as the weakest CA in their trust store though, right? You are absolutely right. Not only the weakest CA but now you needlessly involve a lot of third (or at least one third party). It is not something I like

Where I work we often have to exchange keys with partners. Key fingerprint is often used as a mechanism to make sure the partner really has OUR public key. We email the key first and then another known employee is expected to verify the fin

Well, stupid laws will get stupid compliance. The idea that asking companies to fire their existing employer just to hire some "citizen" employee is dumb beyong measure. H1B visas should not exist in first place. Just give green c

1. It is not the price of the pill. It is the price of the entire 14 day course. 2. There are only 500K or mothers who suffer from PPD each year in USA. May be 200K or so of them would actually be willing to take medicines. And if the cour
