Disagree. This just reinforces the point that best security is multi-layered.

Think about the amount of man hours people have spent deleting these files from repositories, USB drives, archives... They spread like a virus.

Seems to me this would interfere with the accessibility of the website for those that use screen readers.

Interesting. My initial instinct is to compare them to MongoDB which IPO'd about a year ago. They seem to be doing quite well since, but then again, who hasn't in the tech sector?

I will say I very much enjoy Elastic's suite of products, I can't say the same for MonogoDB.

Good for them! This will make an excellent case study.

In San Diego, it is legal to ride on the sidewalk, but pedestrians have the right away. I believe this stems from the city's desire to be bike friendly with their inability/unwillingness to fund proper and adequate bike lanes.

Can you elaborate on the legality? In what way are they illegal?

There is a quiet war brewing between city councils and dockless bike companies. It's tough to say whether cities will embrace a dockless bike/scooter future, or if they will ultimately ban the companies from operation, leaving a market for docked bikes to remain.

How does the popularity of bikes compare to electric scooters? Anecdotally, I see a lot more Bird and Lime S scooters flying around than I do bicycles these days - and we do have docked bicycle and Lime bikes and Ofo options available in my city.

Having tried many of these services, I find the electric scooters to be the most enjoyable, although the electric bikes are quite fun too and can be a better experience if you're carrying something which can be put in the basket.

I'm from the US, but I noticed that a lot of train stations in Europe had full drug stores inside - with normal drug store prices as well. Super convenient.

"When you consider that much of WeWork’s revenue is likey just VC dollars paying the expenses of their tenants"

Is that a known fact or just a guess? The prices are low enough that it seems like it could easily appeal to bootstrapped companies or small businesses.

CarMax was originally created under Circuit City? I had no idea! Interesting that they were able to succeed when CC crashed so hard.

Today I also learned, via wikipedia, that Circuit City is attempting a comeback.

Indeed, and Facebook has the analytics to know what will likely be the next big thing before anyone else. I think the only thing that can stop the cycle is government intervention for monopolistic practices.

This is just another hit piece against Elon and his companies, this isn't news.
