- Comment on Apple is reportedly getting ready to introduce ads to its Maps app 1 day ago:you say that like google doesn’t do this even worse. 
- Comment on Apple is reportedly getting ready to introduce ads to its Maps app 1 day ago:sure, but do you think he’d be okay with a severely underpowered camera or super thick phone compared to the competition? Neither of those things happened under Jobs either. It’s not that simple to blame Cook for everything that’s different about iphones now. It was a lot easier to stick to rigid principles in the early days when the market was wide open and the tech rapidly maturing every year. They were making money hand over fist just picking off the low hanging fruit of smartphone evolution. That isn’t enough these days when you have shareholders to answer to.

- Comment on The Weirdest "Car" I've Ever Driven - mkbhd's video about the Aptera EV 2 days ago:i really don’t get this this thing. Maybe it made sense when used EVs were not common, but for less money now you can get an actual electric CAR on the used market. Same range, way more capable and comfortable, and from a reputable manufacturer of your choice.

- Comment on Apple Reportedly Moving Ahead With Ads in Maps App 4 days ago:why would they do that when Google Maps and Waze are already bigger competitors?

- Comment on Hydrogen's Big Year Continues With New California H2 Transit Project 4 weeks ago:it’s not just volatility that’s an issue. Entirely new infrastructure needs to be built. Even setting aside volatility, Hydrogen is extremely difficult to contain because it’s such a small molecule. And it’s also corrosive. These are not trivial challenges at all. It’s true that batteries present their own challenges but we are making much more progress in battery tech than we are with hydrogen. 
- Comment on Hydrogen's Big Year Continues With New California H2 Transit Project 4 weeks ago:most people do not know that. thought the promise is that you could establish a hydrogen infrastructure and it would get greener over time - similar to EV’s which get greener over time as power generation includes more renewables. why would we use renewables to produce hydrogen when we could just use that renewable energy as it is? That’s just adding extra steps and inefficiency for very little benefit, if any.
