The hyper green golf courses in Vegas are truly eye catching when you fly in as well.

Yes.

Which is why it's bad that the only 3 companies with capacity currently are colluding.

If we can reduce the shockwave from sonic booms that could directly lead to more efficient plane engines. The main current impediment they have is the tips of the turbine blades can only get so close to the speed of sound before they explode from the forces they're experiencing.

Which could have knock-on effects for anything involving an airfoil moving through a fluid. Helicopters, boats, wind turbines, hydro-power, etc.

Better understanding and control of the physics / materials science at the sound barrier would be very good news.

They're publicly traded companies. Their investor meetings point out that HBM is not more profitable.

It is in theory more guaranteed profit because it's a smaller number of bigger contracts. But that's the gamble they're making.

It literally sounds like he'd never seen Texas before. Especially around the big cities it's a car centric hellscape unless you're in some very specific neighborhoods.

I get a lot done with physical buttons and time / condition automations but sometimes it's nice to just do a one off action from the couch.

I've built some md5stack little speaker things and they work okay. Weird audio artifacts sometimes though.

Thankfully this one is built of many redundant layers instead of just one layer of metal.

* Assuming there is no bug, zero-day, or other vulnerability on the current version of your fully updated device.

Having a power-only cable removes that as a possibility.

Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can't sue them for anything. Ever.

Even if years later you die in one of Disney's hotels because one of Disney's restaurants didn't care about your allergy.

So there's that to worry about now.

Perfect should not be the enemy of Good. Reforming the entire system is not something that just happens. It takes several steps in the right direction and you have to start somewhere.

Mostly I think its fine for all that.

But there's a special circle of hell for projects that rely on it for "documentation".

I get the temptation, I really do. But once you're taking money or have more than a couple people involved and semi-organized you really need at least a small wiki/git-hub landing page with the basics.

I know documentation is a separate skillset and a lot of work in its own right but projects can also stagnate and die because there isn't any.

It should be. But I would be extremely surprised if everything in the terms of service isn't worded something like "you're buying a license to view this content that can be revoked whenever".
