They could relive major streets and create dedicated bus lanes.

They could prioritize the surface train stoplights.

They could create protected bike and scooter lanes.

Or they could blame the residents for trying to get around town.

All high rise office buildings should be incentivized to have residential space. Let’s try and fix the housing issues and reduce cars/traffic at the same time.

They literally couldn’t pay the devs. Netflix for instance flat out refused to have blackberry pay for 2 full time devs to maintain an app.

Netflix looked at the market share and determined that there was 0 benefit. The people that were on blackberry devices already had a Netflix account.

Additionally Blackberry store apps were compelling for devs. Dev feedback included ease of development and more importantly they made a lot more money on the blackberry store than on iOS/android, both because the cut was better and they could jack the prices up because the customers were not nearly as frugal.

To get into mobile would require a massive overhaul of windows apps to get them mobile-friendly

Oh look, that’s exactly what they did and now we have PWAs for lots of apps. Maybe MS is getting ready to take a stab at mobile again.

Did you sleep through the search engine wars? Not a single search engine was good. There were sites dedicated to sending your search to all of the search engines at once.

Google showed up and it was game over. Their ad sales took off, and then they came out with gmail with 1gb of free storage and everyone went nuts for it since trying to stay under 15mb for your local isp was a pain in the ass.

Google disrupted very hard and continued to do so in many ways for a long time.

In many places if you’re found guilty of committing a crime and it’s “gang related” then the consequences go up. I think the same should happen to cops.

I’m not talking about the actions that can be debated, I’m talking about the ones where a fool did something egregious like tase a teacher for not obeying unnecessary instructions.

“Here is every illegal thing you’ve done since you were conceived, including the ones in countries that the US has an extradition agreement with. Also, here is how much we will pay you to be our bitch. Would you like to continue this discussion?”

Establish dominance by watching your porn with the door open.

Have loud conversations on speaker.

You can’t win this fight until you move out. Until then just make it in their best interest to not be a shitty parent.

Just a guy in the woods building shit from nothing, without tools. It kicked off a lot of similar channels that were obviously using tools.
