While this may sound good in ideal circumstances, the reality is that everything has costs, and traffic shaping is -way- cheaper that "building out the network".

What are you saying? It would be VERY easy to start a petroleum industry in that world. Literally scoop up oil and burn it. 0 technology required and you have an energy source, unlike this, which is still not a positive energy source even with modern technology.

And in a few years once you get tenure?

Did you miss the 50 references above to studies that prove its safer without a helmet?

Except, you know, it isn't correct and Linus apologized the next day.

Yes and no to this... reloading webpages on other tabs because the phone didn't save them is a ram thing. Yes, internet reloads are not really "performance improvements", but in reality they might as well be.

Sorry guy, but making a movie and killing an innocent person are two very different forms of "extremism".
