I sometimes feel like Hal changing a lightbulb[1] when I'm trying to install an app on Linux, either I don't have the correct distro, I need to enter km long command line to add some repository to apt, I need to download 346 packages from I don't know where to the build the app, and finally find out that it's not what I wanted.

Yes, I know that's how Linux works and I know all the advantages of that, but when you see now that many install are just 'curl mywebsite.com/install.sh | bash', you start to wonder which is a "good" solution.

I discovered this school right after discovering the Richard Mille clock in Quebec City [1] because the school is responsible for maintaining the clock.

> The author made this story available to Medium members only.

Why should I create a medium account to read a blog? Am I so out of touch?

Shouldn't the author want the article be available to the biggest audience?

In business, nothing's off limit to destroy others.

You can be better, or you can report them for any "illegal" stuff.

The whole US societal model of judgment of anyone's wealth can't be maintained because anyone walking is supposedly poor.

So if you create cities where someone has to "walk", in their minds you're forcing them to be seen as poor.

That's what also included in the concept of valet parking, you're rich because you can go directly from your car to the hotel/restaurant entrance without walking among the poors.

They don't get everything, spare parts are made by other companies, same with tires, servicing can be done outside their network...

Imagine a world where every car company would get money every time someone uses their car.

Instead of monthly subscription for self driving or heated seat, it would just cost a few cents a minute.

This would be a strong push to try to destroy public transportation everywhere
