Most retail businesses will add the tariffs on their existing inventory. This is normal and it's not to "make a quick buck", but to be able to restock. In some cases they may be able to absorb one restock cycle with profits (to get a price advantage over competitors), but given that retail margins are usually low, if something got stupidly high increases like a 20% or 50% tariff, you need to plan ahead or you'll end up understocked

Excelent decision! Now, how about a recall for those cars that are stuck with touch buttons?

I hope some government will start saying 'leave your social media apps or we will have to raise taxes to pay for these units'.

They turn them on in *picosecond* pulses, about 1000 of them per second. That means that a single millisecond of total operation will happen after 11 days of continuous operation, and they most likely will turn this on only during an electrical thunderstorm rather than all the time. If you do the matt it's about 1W of power usage.

When everything else fails, bring in the military. Now, I wonder if they're going to miniaturize this Armored Car T (is it a Ford Model T?!?!) or just run over the patient with a full size...

It depends a lot on your needs. MinIO
* Only does replication on multi-DCs (we do distributed and replicated erasure coding),
* Does not have a metadata database.
* It's really S3-like, as it uses its own SDK for connecting to it. It means anything talking 100% S3 might not work.
* It also lacks some enterpise features like object lock, versioning, etc.
* MinIO has a concept of “zones” or “server pools”. Initial MinIO cluster is a zone; then expanded on a zone-by-zone basis which limits scalability.

We sell easily scalable AWS S3 on prem. https://cloudian.com/

"Kill Amazon", period.

that's called 'a taxi'

.. .and it's not only China saying it: Sweden too.

Why do they even need to raise investing money if they can create it from nothing?

Yeah, there are countries like Argentina where most cell phone companies charge data per byte except WA text.

wait, arrow functions? That's not a Python feature, that's something in JS

I wonder how much work would it take to build a captcha system that helps science projects by building public, annotated datasets. I would love to see this being used in the wild instead the private datamining done by Google.
