I loved it too, and my daughters (who had access to several looney toons collections as kids) also seemed to enjoy it.

To do what? I usually hold it with my left and, and one-finger (right-hand index finger) to type / scroll / select / etc. I guess I never "got" the phone model properly or something. My daughters type way faster on

Are you free to intercept person A's emails / hack their computer to find their notes on how they're approaching problem B?

Have you been living under a rock? None of the big tech companies care one bit about user privacy in the US.

Even if they claim not to use it, they're probably using it and hoping they don't get caught. They have zero ethics or morals, they just want to "win" to get mega-rich.

How many people can afford to take a day off work if they don't have flex hours?

I'm even more impressed by purely mechanical engines of the 50s and 60s that revved that high without any help from microprocessors/fuel injectors/coil packs. Porsche built a 9000 rpm race engine that had beveled gears (I had

I've worked for a few companies from 2000-2026 (2 startups, 2 medium companies), and overall, I would say they all had decent to great leadership. None of them were out to only maximize next quarter, all stressed being 100% honest with

Or maybe there are more things using the same tactics / scammer's reach keeps increasing. My parents "fell" for fundamentalism early (as kids - raised in it), for televangelists in their 40s, and Fox News in their 70s&#x

They arguably have more free speech rights than the average person with citizens united..

Duncan Elliott taught my graduate (IIRC) computer architecture course while writing that thesis - we all talked about C-RAM for a while.. And I think it was a rehash of an even older paper / discussion about that idea.

What is a "normally skilled" job? Working at Home Depot?

We also had strong unions and income tax rates as high as 95% on the highest income brackets.

True, it does smell a bit fishy..

Yes, agreed. I came on a fiance visa, then work authorization, then green card, then naturalization. Spouse (the OG US citizen) thought we just needed to get married in the US..

by hn_acc1 21d ago
Confused as well - spousal visa gives them a green card, does it not? What is there to wait for? Are they postponing green card renewal as well?

OS/2 Warp's browser did that - it kept a tree of parent and child nodes (indented) as a history type of thing..

Libre Office has that too..

If it wasn't for Google (and ads), my bank might not have even considered selling my data.. They only sold the credit bureaus in the past, AFAIK. Now it's considered a "must have"..

Thanks for this. As a 30+ years software developer, I empathize with your pain, understand your points, etc. I also am old-school and would expect reasonable support / fixes from $200+ software packages back in the day. These days, for

That depends. My employer sells to enterprise / Fortune 500 companies. We have very responsive support staff. We've been around 15+ years. The question was asked: would we ever consider a scaled-down version of our product for the

UBI can also be a backstop against deflation, can't it? If no one has income, it doesn't matter if bread costs $1 per loaf instead of $3-5 now - no one will be able to afford even $1 eventually, after they've sold their house

by hn_acc1 2mo ago
Sam Altman doesn't BELIEVE in UBI - but he knows it's the only way to SELL his product, therefore he pretends he believes in it. None of these guys want one cent going to anyone but themselves.

Then they can get a license for that class of vehicle and add "towing up to NNNN lbs" option.. Anything over 500 or 1000 lbs towed, for example, IMHO, should require a license. Obviously not for a hitch-based bicycle carrier - I t

And people loved "free next day delivery" from Amazon, when it started. It's not quite the same level of service anymore, and membership has gone up in price. Would these businesses pay 2x? 5x? 10x? What is their breaking poi

How can it end well, when it's mostly owned / controlled by narcistic billionaires who would love to eradicate anyone who so much as looks at them sideways? And who view "mass population reduction" and "I'll ge

Sure, they brought in artillery and a small freelance militia to shoot at the unionized workers, but the point is, the survivors are back working the mines...
