The only reason to get an iPhone Air seems to be to show off that you have an iPhone Air. Otherwise, there doesn't seem to be any practical reason not to get the iPhone 17 Pro if you have an extra $100.

Just for background: These actions are targeted against Chinese companies, in the continued battle by Indian government to fight against recent land grab near Himalayas by Chinese Army and long term economic war e.g., New Silk Road, Trade Deficit etc.

Not sure if you have been to India but the "cash woes" were gone more than a year ago :) Patanjali products are selling well because people like the products and Patanjali doesn't seem to be driven by profit-motives ATM, thus leading to lower prices.

WIKILEAKS Claims CIA Bugs 'Factory Fresh' iPhones!

Stock is already down 6.31% in aftermarket! Geez

This translates to net annual return of 0.0025% :)

Do you also never use Padlock or Combination Lock or basic door lock because they also offer "no protection against a determined adversary" ?

I feel, it is best to compare iOS 8 against iOS 7 to get the right comparision.

Apply Pay is essentially a digitized copy of your physical credit cards. You still need the remaining infrastructure to process credit cards, as well as be compatible with a physical credit card.

In other words, Apply Pay is a digital credit card. You still need the remaining infrastructure to process credit cards, as well as be compatible with a physical credit card.

Sounds like you are a perfectionist in nature :) Perfectionist tend to be rarely "happy" with their achievements and are always striving for more. It is very hard to be fulfilled with such a mindset. I would suggest checking out this book with some more information on being a perfectionist http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004BKJB6Y/ref=oh_aui_d_det...

I see both approaches as merely tools to achieve what you want. I don't see any of those approaches as good or bad. If one wants to make only Apple's decision and practice look bad, then yes they could do absolute comparison. Alternatively, you could do a relative comparison to see that this is a standard practice followed by all major platforms providers, that compete with their customers.

I find that such relative comparison put things in perspective.

To put it another way, Majority of Indians don't understand or your share your beliefs either.

Simply put, Modi won because Indian people believed he represents a better alternative to anyone out there by wide margin.

I find it hard to put much credibility in the above ideas, when it is implied that somehow stock market going up and Ambani and Adani companies increasing their Market Cap is caused by them potentially donating money to an opposition candidate in an election and caused for concern!

Seems like, one of the lettered agency was involved in this!

You would make a great PR rep for NSA :)

Yes

It is no different than having your money in multiple banks or brokers.

Seems like they are also highly lacking in customer service https://vpsexperience.wordpress.com/

If Gett isn't taking legal action against Uber, then this just sounds like a good marketing ploy to get attention.

Based on my experience working for various companies, I feel it is beneficial in long-term to be loyal to people instead of entities like companies. Be loyal to your coworkers and colleagues, because they are going to remember your hard work and helping hand in-time of need, instead of a "company". People run companies and a company's memory comes and goes with the people who work in that company. We all wish that being loyal to a company would make a company loyal to us, but we don't live in a perfect world and instead being loyal to people seem like more practical way of living.

By billing daily or weekly, you may not have to keep track of all the billable time or worry about not getting compensated for late night calls. Plus, you are not punishing yourself for getting the work done early :)

I am curious, in US, most carriers don't offer any discount for bringing your own device. So, how does spending $349 on Nexus vs buying a subsidized iPhone for $200 going to save anyone money or makes Nexus a better deal?

There is a delete option. Similar to Facebook one.

I like this service. I have been thinking about doing something similar myself. Though, I think it would have been better if it was marketed as a secure place to store private information.

Also, it would be great if this service had its code audited on frequent basis by a trusted 3rd party.

An iPhone app to synch my personal information locally would be awesome too. This way I could access my information even if I am not in front of a computer or don't have net access.

As a consumer, I don't like the fact that now I will have to keep track of different way each website will charge me money.

I am very surprised by low number of Java and Ruby sites, and high number of ASP sites.
