For SpaceX (and possible the others): Yes it can, since they changed the rules to force over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations. From https://x.com/Hedgeye/status/2060

Agreed. Maybe even more dangerous. Achieving digital sovereignty is imperative for Europe, in any case.

Public transportation is on a different level and all mayor cities are connected via a high speed rail network. The latter probably will never happen in the US.

I pay for Youtube premium to not have to see ads and potentially be manipulated by them. Yet I still have to watch a lot of ads there, since for a large chunk of content creators, the economic model of Youtube doesn’t seem to work and they

Amazing how good eye tracking works on my phone (15 Pro). Unfortunately, there seems to be no way to press buttons via blinking, only by "dwelling" on an item for a few seconds, which makes using my phone feel quite hectic and pro

Man this is awesome. I‘m using a somewhat similar stack for an app in development with a monorepo consisting of a Postgres backend (Rails) + Expo (with Router) + Tamagui + Redux Toolkit. And, as one would expect, it’s been quite a struggle,

Banks generally support HBCI standard (in Central/Western Europe) Thats why using apps like Outbank, that automatically aggregate all your bank accounts data work like a charm in my experience.

There are still some high profile people posting great content for free there, especially if you are into tech and/or finance.

This just is one of many examples which show that designing great User Interfaces is (still) more of an art than science, e.g. rigid math based design systems tend to fail in practice.

Since it is such a common and useful word, I hope Facebook looses this case, as I would find it sad if that word is associated with their company by most people for the foreseeable future.

I would recommend to consume only low THC + high CBD strains.(1) For me the difference of these strains to some of the modern high THC + low CBD ones is comparable to drinking a good glass of wine versus chugging down some highly potent moo

This is getting ridiculous imo. I‘m sure some people find your breath and/or your body odor/perfume gross. So should they be able to force you to wear a mask or keep a distance of say at least 6ft at all times?

Does that mean if my webapps get DOSed or something like that, and I can‘t react very quickly, I could face a bill potentially in the thousands of dollars? Currently considering switching from Heroku, but fixed pricing is a must. I‘d rather

Its a perfect metaphor for the kind of environment the FED created in the last few years for risk assets imo.

I was in the same boat when I was younger. After upgrading to a (dumb) projector for movies and gaming (ex shooters), I can’t go back, since the immersion and amount of details I see on a big screen for me is just an order of magnitude bett

Maybe some use case for NFTs after all. Link the stuff you can get through playing a game or buy ingame for cash to a NFT and boom, players really own that stuff and are free to sell it on the secondary market.

With all the right wing support Putin is getting lately, I can‘t help but wonder if they were at least partially successful in subverting our society.

I‘m neither pro nor against VIM or NeoVIM, but your comment is imo completely negative and not helpful at all. I for one are glad for NeoVIM improving upon VIM and pointing out some weaknesses. Since NeoVIM was released, Bram has been impro

Is there anything similar for iOS/Apple TV. Still seeing downvotes in my country, but if they remove this imo important metric, I’ll have to cancel my subscription.

Was wondering that too. Also can‘t the rotors be shrouded or does that affect the power/agility negatively?

Dell Precision with Xeon CPU … this thing doesn’t even have ECC ram, so it’s a toy and not suitable for actual pros. Seriously though, your comment lacks, because of your very narrow and specific definition of „pro“. The vast majority of pe

Without saying this is only good or this is only bad, I honestly think we have reached a level of general wealth, e.g. enough to eat for everyone and enough to endlessly distract everyone (TV, social media, games, etc.), that most people wo

This is too simplistic thinking. For example a basic speed limiter can be very dangerous when overtaking slower cars, where it might be dangerous in some situations to not be able to go above the speed limit for a short moment.

At times it seems perverse that people indulge themselves in the most extravagant activities this planet has ever seen, wasting resources per person and day that could help thousands of people. All while millions of humans go hungry and die
