Dad took me to see the five-hour cut in a cinema when I was barely out of my teens. If not for these sorts of excursions I wouldn't venture much beyond current-year slop as an adult. Getting thrown in the deep end works.

I watched this episode recently. The scene's a Worf classic

What's your superpower, my child? I develop a migraine and take sick leave when something's wrong, Professor

Articles like this come off as glib. Aviation is a dreadful industry for all involved.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

The risk equation makes sense. The potential gain from outlasting your competition and absorbing their subscriber bases to become a near-monopoly is higher than participating in a royalty scheme, and the downside is borne by shareholders and to a lesser extent creditors (the Other People's Money principle).

When government/corporate services are involved, I suggest doing as much as you can via the web browser as opposed to app, in the interests of privacy and civil liberty.

So long as it's going through the browser we have a degree of control over functionality and connectivity. Apps strip that away. Apps are you doing everything on their terms, while suffering an ad (their logo) on your home screen rent-free. You can pin browser bookmarks to home as well in Android.
