cryptokitties are unique, individually owned assets for digital platforms. how are you going to play with VR/AR without the assets that are needed to make that experience worth it? he just compared the apple tree and the apples.
cryptokitties are digital assets that can live on any digital platform like a mobile phone app as an AR filter or inside your favorite video game as a character or a pet for your character. cryptokitties are digital assets that people own. if that isn't important to you, you can't see the future.
simply untrue that google has zero support staff. a better statement would be they have an automated support process for free gmail accounts. they have support staff for many of their products, including the paid version of gmail.
I looked into Stripe recently. Unless I mis-understand the technology, it's an API, and an Application Programming Interface requires Application Programming. In other words, I would need to operate a website, physically or in the cloud, and create the program that generates credit card transactions. I would also have to manage all of the policies that PayPal covers for me, such as dispute resolution.
PayPal gives me access to USPS first class mail shipping, which USPS doesn't even offer via their own website. This saves me money on shipping costs.
Last time I looked, Amazon seemed more complicated, and oriented towards bigger businesses than mine. I don't remember what I concluded about WePay and Square.
Everything is great until it isn't -- kind of a corollary to survivorship bias I guess.
There's still the drag of having to remember to recharge it every night, even if you're taking it off.
I experience this now that I've gone from the XBox 360 to the PS4. The XBox 360 battery lasted what seemed like forever. I would go a week or two without even thinking of plugging it in to charge. The PS4 controller battery life is so bad you have to plug it back in every time you're done playing.
I've had many people say "what's the big deal, just plug it in, are you lazy or what", but it is noticeably irritating.
this law however, is to protect consumers. it prevents taxis from charging multiple people for the same ride (as separate fares). this law actually makes sense and should stay in place.
No it doesnt. If the law stated that it was not possible to ask the full price, then it would protect consumers. But now it includes cases where the price is halved, which means I can't get cheap transport.
