I can guarantee that he has almost zero interest in “karma points”. I worked for FB years ago and that is not how he sees the world or sets direction did the company. Almost certainly this is part of some grandiose bet which could have a ch

I’m sure there are people for whom the main problem is keeping track of N streaming services. But I’d wager the combined cost of those N services is a much, much bigger factor for most.

Appreciate the clarification. While it was part of the same overall disaster, Boukreev‘s rescue efforts may not have been specifically towards Green Boots. From what I understand the final location of Green Boots was along the same route th

A climber who was pivotally involved in the failed rescue efforts for the dead person in this article immediately left on a solo climb of a nearby mountain. He died just over a year later in another climbing incident. https://e

Apple has over-promised and under-delivered so many times in this space, going back to the launch of the original Siri. So while they could win, it’s pretty hard to get hyped about it before we see real-world tests.

We are already at that point. People using LLMs to send emails for other LLMs to summarize and then the other party responds with their LLMs. Human communication replaced by wasteful slop of no value.

Everyone says supply and demand and then explains labour supply. Which is an important piece. But the labour demand half is important too. Bigtech makes so much money (or is so well financed) that competing on top talent is more feasible wh

By law the US govt is able to compel access to any data controlled by an American company, regardless of where those companies operate. There doesn’t need to be specific evidence of this case, it’s true of all cases. Some American companies

It wasn't even a complaint, just a personal anecdote to help share some context as to why the site may have failed to retain consumer interest post-2016. But yes I'll join you with the liver damage and drink 17 shots.

If i understand the intention of a zfs root combined with an a/b approach — it feels like this btrfs root and immutable gives you the same benefits but with better mainline support.

Yes this is a common release practice. However this is a different situation as we’re talking about running arbitrarily found third-party scripts. I can’t imagine that was ever intended to be done in production. Fun story, when I worked at

Selecting the wrong environment in your test setup by mistake? I refuse to believe that someone on the security team intentionally tested random user scripts in production on purpose.

This analysis ignores the fact that the user experience has regressed from a previous version which didn’t have these issues. So it’s not like some longstanding industry-wide UI issues they’ve ignored forever, it’s that Apple has introduced

I can infer from the neglect that Apple News has been a failure for them and they are keeping it going to avoid consequences for shuttering it. Or if not a failure, it’s not enough of a success to give the product sufficient attention.
