If the young are driving iPhone adoption there could be good reasons for it. I don't think the culture battle is winnable here. Android doesn't really offer something iOS/iPhones lacks. The iPhone has matured and Apple has al

Good move imo. Twitter is a data treasure for many sectors. They probably saw an increase of bot crawling after the APi changes and this was soon to follow. If monetization is his primary goal which it is these moves make good sense.

This comes up time and time again. I'd feel worse giving someone else toxic blood that can't be fully filtered. Why isn't blood letting mentioned more?

Mass gambling companies should be next. It's a scam and a wonder how it's allowed in society at all.

How do you know this is done with intent to promote or advertise for 'it'? Could be an agent or loved one took the time to preserve the memory or are we just claiming there is some type of ill play here.

Migrants to the UK have stayed the same if not increased. It's a misconception they've fallen after brexit. See figure 5 https://migrationobservatory.ox.ac.uk/resources/briefings/mi... India is the bigge

India has one of the most robust Internet trolling, astroturfing apparatus in the world. You will not be treated well if you criticise the government.

Tinnitus is an interesting one to me. I've read so many of people's theories and anecdotes and have suffered myself for the last 11ish years. The hearing system is complicated, we still don't know why tinnitus happens. The co

I was just thinking this. Know many NHS tech people in my circle. None earn 70k+. Contractors potentially but they'd generally be on 100k+ if the rates are at all competitive. Though contracting has dwindled in recent times because of

For the non-British here. Taxes are paid automatically in the UK to the tax man through a system called "Pay As You Earn - PAYE". Take home pay is closer to 41k. If the applicant has a student loan. These might take 30 years to pa

Salaries in the UK are abysmal. Cost of goods here have in some cases doubled. Not to mention the housing situation, people are selling up to rent because of interest rates driving rent up.

A great talk by Dr Swann: https://youtu.be/uLxFazLK2Mg I think it's wise to take precautions and install home water filters, avoid containments in our food, air and clothing supply chain. Endocrine disruptors take many

Tracking and privacy on Windows is becoming atrocious, I didn't know about the built in keylogger until I ran a declutter tool. Unpopular opinion but to stop Microsoft's shenanigans = legislation. Opt-in by default would be a good

It frightens me but some are just devoid of the ability to be empathic, even if it's to be empathic against their future selves. People really do argue themselves aggressively into points that exploit themselves without any benefit.

I'm witnessing engineers on my team and myself saving a lot of time in development and in operations (scripting). I have no doubt in my mind it is reducing the need for more engineers and has probably already contributed to a reduction

It will boost output and cut development time. Heck, it's already doing that for alot of engineers. It may cause job losses? To what percentage remains to be seen.

Consumer gear for all families is an extra step. I don't like national firewalls either but we're already here and have been for 10+ years, ie piracy sites.

People freaking out here seem to not have kids. I don't know a parent in the real world that would allow their child access to any porn.

We need a middle ground. Sex is not equal to porn either. No parent wants their child accessing porn but locking devices is the wrong step. ISPs should do a better job at completely blocking porn access. It's poorly implemented in the
