Jane came to my high school and I forged a pass to sneak in to her talk. I am not sure why every class didn't get the opportunity to see her, but I am glad I did. RIP

> I didn’t realize this data was being collected, but it seemed that we had agreed to the STARLINK enrollment when we purchased it.
This is mind blowing to me.. Number 1 why you need a car connected to the internet all the time ? And how you're not required to sign at least 10 forms to confirm you understand that ALL of your travel data will be recorded and distributed at will.
Because it has an SOS feature.
30 year fixes seem so alien to me, 2 or 5 years are the most common in the U.K.
Are there shorter interval fixes? Is it just a cultural thing where lifetime fix is the norm?
Lifetime fixed rate is more common especially after 2008 when floating rates contributed to crushing the US housing market. Even before 2008 fixed was more common. The fixed rate is why those in the US who have a ~3% rate from a few years ago are “stuck” as it is difficult to justify giving it up.
devinegan commented on Steve Ballmer was an underrated CEO danluu.com/ballmer/... · Posted by u/greggyb
"When Ballmer became CEO in January 2000, Microsoft's stock was around $53. When he stepped down in February 2014, it was around $38."
By that metric, no he wasn't underrated.

My career has jumped between startups and FAANG-likes. All the wealth I ever built up was from stock options at the FAANG-likes. I've never made anything from the startups.
But the jump-steps in career advancement came from the startups. There's where I had huge opportunities to learn and grow and do new things. I learned and grew a lot at the FAANGs too (except Amazon), but the huge jumps came from startups.
In my n=1, FAANG-like stock options are the best way to grow your wealth.
Have you been a founder?

Serious question. Does this open up EU iPhone customers to CrowdStrike-like security issues related to their phones if they use these new App Stores? Or at least reduce security and privacy of their devices by downloading less vetted apps? I am not pro either way yet I am just curious what the community thinks.

Sure, they have cameras up in public spaces, on the casino floors, etc. No one is going to argue with their right to place cameras on their private property like that.
Hotel rooms are a different matter, though. People should and do expect levels of privacy similar to that of a rented apartment. (Lower levels, but similar.)
Landlords can access their property with 24 hour notice everywhere I has lived in the US.
The best music, in my opinion, in the movie is not on the soundtrack and it is:
Guy Pratt - Combination
