While I agree with everything the author said, I don't think it's as simple as saying America has to do what's necessary. How can you possibly stomp out Islam without wiping out the innocent muslims along with them? And even then... look how long it took to find Bin Laden. And look how hard it's been to find those who took his place on our most wanted lists. I don't think it's possible to wipe them out. Rather we need to educate and communicate.

Fascinating. What does a "digital prophet" do?

What are those?

As a major sci fi fan, this sounds really exciting. I'll check out the kickstarter campaign.

Apple's response was an exceptionally well written response. At first I was outraged to hear Apple would not assist the FBI in pursuit of terrorists. But now I see have a clear understanding of the situation and support Apple fully.

I always enjoy reading your comments. Thanks.

I've seen so many logos and company names that are virtually the same, I wonder how effective trademarks really are. If a trademark is issued to a new company, could an existing company still sue if they feel it is overly similar? And if not, could a trademark issuing be appealed?

Has Trump weighed in on this at all?

Fascinating, I hadn't ever concerned this "dark side" to owning a Tesla. That being said, it time more and more facilities will now how to handle these cars. When the iPad/iPhone first came out, only Apple could swap a battery, fix a stuck home button, or replace a cracked screen. Now pretty much every corner has at least one store that can handle these repairs.

Great post, looking forward to reading more by you.
