my 86 YO father decides he doesn't need the cable company for anything but internet access.
Just this week my father told me he wants to put antennas on two TVs, switch to prepaid cell phone only, and shut off the TV and phone service he gets from the cable company.
Big companies get subsidies in the form of tax breaks all the time.
They bitch about taxes, get a deal, then they bitch because the schools aren't churning out worker robots with the necessary skills- schools that would be funded by the taxes the big corps aren't paying.
There'll be war, there'll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
All the proud men turned to dust.
And so all things, time will mend.
So this song will end

No, I don't have much time for either. I'm too busy saving the world, one tooth at a time.
Was that Monty Python?
As a dentist I find your post quite amusing...
"Jony is one of the most talented and accomplished designers of his generation, with an astonishing 5,000 design and utility patents to his name."
How many of those did he actually do any work on and how many were done by his team at Apple and assigned to him (and Apple, of course)?
This is why people still think that big, important things still get invented by a single guy working in his garage. Pfft!
There is so much free stuff available (so I've heard
Who pays for porn with so much free stuff available?
Is porn just advertising for the actors who engage in for-hire sex with anyone with adequate funds?
Are us poor slobs just enjoying the commercials while the rich guys get the real stuff?
Oh yeah? Sez you! I'm rubber, you're glue, whatever you say bounces off of me and sticks to you. Plplplpl Take that! hah!
They poached engineers for their battery expertise, yet my wife has to keep charging her iPhone a couple time each day?
Look at all the iCrap portable "chargers" that have a bigger battery to be used to charge up iPhones (or maybe I am thrown off by the "i" they put on the names of these things and the Apple compatible cables they come with). If Apple had the battery figured out that whole cottage industry would not exist. It seems like Apple is in desperate need of help with batteries and they sure didn't get whatever they paid for by hiring this company's employees.
2B more people will need a lot of doctors, dentists, and lawyers.
Returned to school at 46 YO, 2 years of prerequisites followed by 4 years of dental school. $150k in student loans at 6.8%.
Dentistry is exactly the opposite of engineering. My work is appreciated by my patients, and I get respect. They can't send my job to China/India/wherever because they can't send my patients to China/India/wherever. Pay is a little more than I made as an engineer and growing rapidly.
I just wish the ADA wasn't so far to the right on the political spectrum...
