Ugh. Telling somebody to buy a phone with a plan to then cancel it and only save a net of $30 is a huge freaking headache for the stores that then have to deal with being charged $150 back by Sprint because you cancelled your contract.

If you have linked your facebook account this already happens.

Remarkably stupid blog post, you’re welcome.

I ordered 9 things on amazon this weekend and i hope my city wins the amazon 2nd HQ. The biggest employer here pays no local property tax and was incentivized to build here. Then it brought 20k professional jobs to the area. This town has gone through a massive boom because of them and its a great city.

I’d argue the savings of not having cashiers/etc. would make simply *giving* away free $40 smartphones to anybody who didn’t have one but wanted to shop there a viable option.

Lutz is the complete opposite of a “scared-old-man.” Think more like “salty seasoned automotive veteran” who has seen many car companies come and go.

Look. I know that Tesla has a lot of things to work out. But this, to me, reeks of “scared old man shouting at the future”.

I guess Michigan should ramp up road repairs soon...

No. Those facts are too inconvenient to the “narrative”.

The US ended 2017 with a $666 billion budget deficit. We don’t have the money for any of this shit.

Haha. Tax cuts that benefit the wealthy. Love how your story slings in your political stance. Because if this plan we have more tax revenue, more investment etc. more jobs eventually too. What would Rhett’s plan be? Tax them to death?

Right...

Come on man, really? This is your “contribution”?

Counter-argument: I think I love it. Based on other articles explaining it in detail (the Guardian one linked to below is a great read), it’s a clever way of teaching children engineering. The piano takes two hours to build and the game apparently explains how it all works and what the tech’s doing to make it…

Because some of us are so disgusted with FB that we stopped using it a decade ago and never looked back?

Fuck Facebook, and fuck Facebook Watch. Seriously. People think YouTube is bad for creators? Facebook is infinitely worse.

Lol, Facebook.

You contradicted yourself there. You want subscribers to meet the Ad revenue threshold...yet you dont care about it and do it out of love... but that inability to monetize took the wind out of your sails? SSo if you love it...how does this discourage you unless you care about money. Do you do realize that even at 1k…

The only thing that remains of the project are enterprise-only models focused more on assisting business complete specialized tasks than expanding the tech as a whole.

Stupid tweet to end it with “more dangerous drugs”. Just should have left out “more” so it said “help fund our schools and addiction treatment programs for dangerous drugs”.
