> According to the Open Data Córdoba group (which is dedicated to tracking expired Argentine domains) Google's domain had not expired and, in fact, the expiration date was in July. But the group too was unable to explain what had happened or why.
You earn a dollar. You pay tax on the earnings. You buy a medium potato with the remaining 70Â.
You want a big potato. You use your credit card. The bank pays the grocer a dollar and tells you âoeYou owe me a dollar.â
Then the bank develops an allergy to maple and runs away south, shouting âoeNever mind.â
You got $1.70 worth of potatoes for $1.00 work.
US legislators say âoethat makes no sense. You owe tax on the forgiven debt.â
Canada legislators say different.
Do you think you can get a forty-year loan from a bank?
"Alexa, add Beyond Burgers to my Whole Foods pickup box. Alexa, add Fabainaise Classic 32 ounce to my Whole Foods pickup box. Alexa, add Field Roast Herb Chao slices to my Whole Foods pickup box. Alexa, schedule my Whole Foods pickup for Saturday morning."
My top priorities for email service are quality of spam filtering, support for unlimited aliases, search, and rules. I think labels work better than folders for categorization. I have not found any Amazon documentation which addresses these issues.

From TFA: "The company has more than 180 patents, both issued and pending, covering its solutions, software and differentiated intellectual property."
Even though Kodak saw digital photography coming, the problem was Kodak's whole financial structure was tied to film, and digital technology was disruptive technology. They might have been able to sustain the brand by merging with or buying the right company at the right time (e.g. Canon), but most companies have a hard time dealing with technology shifts that vaporize their main profit center. It's not as simple as just knowing what the next trend is; it's figuring out how to gracefully wind down the existing cash cow while giving the new technology the management attention and resources it needs to thrive. Even then, there still ends up being a lot of pain because you can just put all of the same people you had producing film to work in a digital camera business.
Agreed, though I wouldn't go so far as to say that Google would be upset if Chrome marginalized Firefox through merit-based competition.
