There is nothing really wrong with him. He's mostly known for his talk radio show, not his articles.

On his radio show, he has people calling in, but he frequently cuts people off (as most good radio show hosts do).

Here is what I found through the wikipedia revision history:

To be fair, I haven't looked at everything, but if this is the only kind of content he's complaining about, then he had it easy. Anyone with half a brain would see the bias in these unsourced comments.

To be fair, what you're quoting is what a journalist said about the author. It's not even a quote of the author, it's an interpretation by the journalist of what the author supposedly wrote. If second-hand paraphrasing is enough to condemn someone absolutely, then President Barack Obama must be the devil himself according to right-wing talk show hosts and Fox News reporters.

So instead of having 20 to 30 people in a Google bus during rush hour, you want those 20 to 30 tech scum brogrammers on the road driving their own car?

I'm sorry, but these types of agreements are nothing new. Private car pools often get preferential treatment. For a couple of hours they can get their own lanes and their own pick up/drop off areas (areas which are usually public parking spaces the rest of the time). Not to mention, school buses, university shuttles, and even private university shuttles, often share bus stops with city buses when there is a need and the city agrees to it.

If you ask me, getting as many idiot drivers off the road during rush hours is a good idea (it's not like they don't have the money, so if they don't go by shuttle, they won't have trouble buying their own cars, increasing car congestion, and driving up the rent of private garages in the city).

If you want privacy, don't use an address book, memorize your friends numbers. On that topic of friends, don't have more than two friends. That will minimize your exposure. The first one can be called Mr. White and the second one Mr. Black, and again, don't be lazy, do not enter their nickname into the address book.

Do not use gps navigation, get yourself an old fashion magnetic compass. Magnetic compasses have worked for centuries. And they'll keep on being useful for many centuries to come. Turn on your phone only at specific hours on certain dates. The rest of the time, keep your phone turned off, battery removed, and the phone tucked away in a Tesla envelope (along with some extra sim cards). And if someone ever comes knocking on your door, or calls you by mistake, you're a Jehova's Witness and you're into Multi-Level-Marketing.

That's what I would call total privacy, and even then it wouldn't be completely total.

What do you mean by support?

On my linux box, I have both Chromium and Chrome installed. Chrome makes it easier to switch google apps profiles than Chromium.

They should just let users send direct Facebook/Google+/Twitter messages to 911.

This way, they'll know what you had for breakfast this morning and who to call in case the initial gps address isn't enough.

If you're into birdwatching and watching open heart surgery at dinner time, then yes, the BBC is the best money can buy.

Speak for yourself! I do all my best coding on my yatch with a prostitute between my legs.

It sounds to me like what killed him was his addiction to call girls, not his addiction to drugs.

gmail.ru (or its equivalent) will find a way to support cyrillic
gmail.qc.ca and gmail.fr will find ways to support French accents (otherwise, Google will get sued or blocked by Quebec or France)
These details will get worked out at the local level. It will take time, but they'll get there eventually.

Along the same lines, when a cell phone network knows a tower is at full capacity, it should reject new customers that reside or work near such a tower.

Unfortunately, that's not how this works in real life.

My so-called 4G "unlimited" plan from T-Mobile gives me 2.5 gigs per month of data (initially it was a 5 gigs cap), and then after that, it's supposed to give me 3G speed. But it doesn't, after my initial "unlimited" cap is reached, only Facebook works anymore, my email doesn't, google maps doesn't, and my web browser doesn't. And the 3G speed it gives Facebook is actually pretty good, it's good enough to download and upload many pictures, but that 3G speed actually works for nothing else.

Just take a look at this article which is not really very clear, I'll grant you that, but this will have to do because I couldn't find another corroborating source no matter how much I googled for it.

Unfortunately, the Facebook executive doesn't come right out and say it, because otherwise he would have said that Facebook is placing its own servers inside points of presence owned by ISPs, including the premises of cell phone network providers (those last words are my words, not his).

And of course, placing servers inside points of presence owned by cell phone networks should have very little to do with radio bandwidth. At best, it should only improve the latency and the speed a little. So I would argue that it's the money given to the cell phone networks that encourages the cell phone networks to assign higher priority to Facebook traffic after that initial cap is reached, and to slow down traffic to a standstill for any other kind of traffic at the same time that same cap is reached (despite what T-Mobile is claiming in its advertisements and in its plans).

Technically, Morgan Stanley has a vested interest in staying on the good side of Tesla, and the Gartner Group doesn't.

And yes, I am aware that there is supposedly a firewall between the analysts group and the investment banking services of Morgan Stanley, but such a firewall is only for appearances. If an analyst really knows what's good for him, he'll publish positive recommendations about the clients that keep his employer in business.

That's not true. The iPhone 5s itself has eight different models.

A1533 or A1457 or A1530: iPhone 5s (GSM model)
A1533 or A1453: iPhone 5s (CDMA model)
A1518 or A1528 or A1530: iPhone 5s (GSM model China)

I have real trouble believing you.

Here are the "Battery Use Details" stats from my T-Mobile LG G3:
23% Screen
13% Android OS
11% Cell standby
11% Phone idle
8% Android System
7% Google Play Services
6% Wi-fi
5% YourBus AC Transit
2% GUNSHIP BATTLE
2% Mediaserver
1% System Manager Application

Granted, mine is not a clean phone. And it does seem like the ugly purple "my account" application is running all the time because it's always shown when you pull down the notification bar. But I'm really surprised that the "my account" application would consume more battery than even your screen, or the Android OS. In my case, the "my account" application isn't even listed as one of the top 11 (although, admittedly I did increase the timeout of my screen, so that could be one explanation the screen is deemed the #1 app that consumes the most battery). And I did disable the Lookout Mobile trial that usually comes pre-loaded on T-Mobile phones.
