While it could stand to be more aggressive at times, especially at intersections, FSD works fairly well in NYC and can do all of less-than-legal-but-necessary things a normal driver can do (such as cross over a double yellow if there is a double parked car blocking the road) so I don't see why Waymo would have any trouble on that aspect at all.
Plenty of those memes and reels ARE focused on 'IRL' activities, though.
Obviously the full experience depends on your feed, but a lot of content is created and shared around restaurants/activities/vacation etc and many millennials and Gen Z find inspiration there, whether from influencers or peers.
Fun fact: AMEX has been involved in international payments in one way or another for more than a 100 years and the AMEX card was the first international charge card, launched the same year as the original BofA Visa Card.
FWIW Monday night games are available on standard ESPN and, sometimes, ABC and Sunday night games are on NBC. So you don't strictly speaking need Peacock or ESPN+
But this Christmas Day you will also need Netflix if you want to watch the Texans game with Beyonce half time show. Not usre about the other Christmas Day game.
As a former vendor working with customers across the e-commerce spectrum, Shopify were certainly the best to work with from both a technology integration and ease of use standpoint. They're a rare example of a company that started very self service and remained that way while growing to significantly more complex client bases so has a wide appeal. Working with them was generally a treat.
Demandware weren't strictly speaking the worst to work with, but it was certainly better days when they were an independent organization vs part of the Salesforce behemoth. There's just a lot more red tape slowing everything down, which I think carries over to the customer experience....things take days/weeks/months in SFCC land that can be done in minutes/hours/days in Shopify land.
All that is to say I'm not at all surprised by the headline, that I'd be long Shopify as an investor, and I'd seriously look at them first as a developer if I were building in the e-commerce space.

From my experience, anything with a self-serve option tends to be a better product.
It sets up all sorts of incentives (Have functioning support! Fix bugs! Have accurate documentation! Build understandable features!) that disappear when you remove "have to support self serve customers" from the equation.
Then all those nice things disappear into a morass of professional services custom implementations and big customer feature chasing.
I could see piping all syslog critial and above out to a .matrix printer that sits in a locked room as a cheap way to enforce a WORM log of events. With a continious sheet of paper you would only need to access it rarely, and essentially only to change the ribbon and replace the paper source.
I've seen dot matrix printers used in backrooms of airlines (which I have visited for reporting lost luggage, sometimes). This would mostly be smaller airlines (as the now defunct Berlin Air)
