It represents a vertical list of toggle icons, commonly seen these days in preferences panes, including the flyout shown in the same image: https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh...

A gear icon would work as well, but the intent was immediately obvious to me.

Good luck describing that icon in words over the phone.

> Wojcicki, who joined Alphabet nearly 25 years ago…

I’m not a journalist, but that doesn’t sound right.

Maybe she was an early employee?

If 80/20 is new to you, then you might also be unfamiliar with its steel channeled cousin, Unistrut. https://www.unistrut.us/

Unistrut is used extensively in the US to build support structures for electrical switchgear and process equipment. You can get grades suitable for outdoor and corrosives exposure.

Unistrut is the Kleenex term, there are a number of work-alike / fit-alike systems.

Then for round tube, there is Kee Klamp: https://keesystems.com/

thetinguy commented on Amazon has radically transformed small businesses in both the U.S. and China   semafor.com/article/01/25... · Posted by u/mfiguiere

Not sure about U.S. SMBs but Amazon's influence on China small business is a rounding number. Only a relatively small number of vendors sell items on Amazon. They made good money but the good days is almost over given recent quality/piracy crackdowns.

Taobao (under Alibaba) has 100 times more influence on how small business in China conduct business. I know small store owners whose business were wiped out by the rise of Taobao. Amazon? They've never heard of it.

thetinguy · 3 years ago
Taobao is a direct influence whereas Amazon is an indirect influence through the sellers importing things from China to sell on Amazon.

This is not basic functionality. The vast majority of iPhone users never plug their device into a computer.

How is iPad going to handle RAW 8k video? Its highest storage is small, good only for a scratch disk at best or for very short movies.

External drives just like people using macbooks

I don't see why a drone couldn't have a massive set of lat-long boundaries unless disk space or CPU is severely limited. Text doesn't take up much space.

The list of restricted airspaces is not static.

It was easier for me to cut all my streaming services than it was to cut my cable TV subscription. The TV subscription was bundled with internet. Except for Amazon Prime, the streaming subscriptions weren't bundled with anything else.

And no equipment rentals.
