It sounds like you went to private school.


There’s enough data from COVID that shows pulling students out of school creates students with less social ability than those physically in school.


I’m not surprised. It was very apparent after interest rates rose that tech companies had to immediately start worrying about making money and not making long term bets which might make money. When you aren’t making as much software as you used to, why have that many programmers in payroll?


Yep. TSA didn’t care about the Teamsters sandwiches, just the Teamsters dipping sauce.


Oh, that’s not going to fit under your seat.


Most airports have the water bottle fillers you can fill for free, but most everything else has airport pricing.
Also, some forms of chai look very similar to explosives with their new scanners.


Their ambitious plan is to protect their desktop monopoly. Microsoft had planned on making gaming a major part of their revenue. However, they messed up so bad that it created the first true threat to the Windows monopoly on decades.
If the SteamOS tech stack can get consumers off Windows, then it makes it that much easier to threaten the Office monopoly as well.

To add on what you said since it was the most complete answer, the first credit cards didn’t start with a magnetic chip but had raised numbering that cashiers would emboss the numbering onto a carbon copy slip. The shop would keep two copies of the receipt and the customer would keep the third.
The switch to magnetic swipe on North America took a while because it required a phone connection to verify the card number. Europe switched to chips earlier than North America in part because a lot is stores didn’t have the required phone/data connections for continuous use, so the chip was developed to be used in cases where there wasn’t any connectivity with the card reader.

Looking at the list of government expenditures, I don’t see space exploration as problematic as other things we are spending money on.

I’m also not surprised that this program was functionally better than public school since there public education system in the South became garbage when segregation became illegal.
