McNeel is not a public company. Public companies are driven towards prioritizing revenue and growth much more than private companies because growth is a shared goal of all shareholders. I suppose it could be said that companies with outside

Boeing may think they fly above it all (get it?) but I can assure you despite my largely unwavering confidence in the air travel industry, I will not travel on a Boeing aircraft in the near future. I will see to it that I fly Airbus or not

The key differentiating factor in your hypothetical reasons why traditional finance is inferior to defi is that there are systems to remediate the exact issues you mentioned, whereas if you send your crypto to the wrong address- it's g

I have to admit I do find it pretty funny when the people who have touted blockchain and cryptocurrency as great because of its decentralization have discovered /why/ a central authority is incredibly important in finance. All of

This may be a luddite-esque take, but personally, I'm very hesitant to use Bun on any meaningful project at the moment. It screams too-good-to-be-true right now. I also believe that I may have heard of some people running across issues

I take issue with clear PR-speak trying to make the issue lesser than it actually is. When you're having an outage- call it an outage. Having a feature completely unusable and labeling it as "degraded performance" is clearly

The funny thing is that a video or article about the journo giving him a sexual favor would actually have been more easily digestible than this 9,500 word pile of crap.

I'm sorry- perhaps the intention and wording of the article changes towards the end, but this entire thing as far as I've managed is just a thinly veiled propaganda piece that tries to make OpenAI, the team, and their product out
