I'm personally super upset with basically all non-Chinese brands. They used the post-covid inflation to drive prices up and like many people are saying here, now the 12k entry-level car is a 25k car. I bought a brand new VW T-Cross in

Agree, however i feel that NYT plays it smart. I currently pay only 4$/month which is negligible enough for me to keep it on. Since i'm a happy subscriber of Bloomberg, i am really not keen to pay another 30$+/month for WSJ b

I'm toggling between Disney, Apple TV, HBO. This also allows me to build up a backlog of a handful of high-quality shows on each platform while paying only for one per month. The one i cannot cancel however is Netflix since multiple ho

Fully agree that the system propose the same challenge to many people and fully agree that my wrong answer is just diluted in a bunch of correct answers. That's exactly why i was asking if other people were doing that. If i'm the

Glad you asked. Since i despise the horrible UX of these Captcha where i get exploited to train a neural network, i very often click on the majority of correct result plus one wrong one. On average the captcha let me go through which is act

aaaand again China doing whatever it wants and nobody doing anything about it. When will this stop? Personally i'm boycotting their product and services as much as possible.

Is it? Waymo seems to be doing pretty well, it has the largest fleet of autonomous cars and from what i remember by far the most extensive testing program on real streets. This looks more like an attempt to spread the R&D cost on lidar

Am i the only one struggling to use Zoom properly since they introduced the latest security changes? The slack integration (write /zoom to start a meeting) was working ok-ish even though we always had problem with the meeting not start

I'm getting extremely pessimistic about our chances at stopping this. It looks like even though we drastically reduce our emissions (which looks very much unrealistic) we haven't yet factored in all these variety of negative feedb

That's a fair point. I guess a mine like Mountain Pass in California would still be a much cleaner site than a chinese mine, even though the EPA is now a clown agency basically. Anyone can confirm this?

I agree with you sooooooo much! Those popups are extremely annoying and mostly used on useless SEO blog traps. The whole notification UI should be much less prominent. If you really want to enable those notification, they should let you op

This engine is meant to bring stuff (and people) to low earth orbit. Don't think of it as a plane, but as a space shuttle which will be fully reusable with no additional boosters. It flies at up to mach 5 and then switches to rocket mo

Completely agree on this one. I feel that a big chunk of "let's make it an SPA" is coming from the development team wanting to use and learn first hand these new exotic tech stacks. In the past two companies i have been, ther

The idea of having many small fusion reactors is quite interesting. I never thought about it and i would normally dismiss it since building a big one is cheaper than building many little ones. However, SpaceX and their 9-engine Falcon rocke

For me, it has been the ability to build websites. This is the very skill that changed my life for the better. Why? First of all it opened so many more job opportunities. I graduated in Economics and Management, just like tens of thousands

i'm sad to see a decline of nuclear energy everywhere in the world. While renewables are the end goal, nuclear was gonna be the perfect transition source for the next decades, providing emission-free and continuous energy to the grid.

Why do you need this? Is it because you are paranoid of being tracked? UTMs offer a transparent, honest way of tracking where a user is coming from. This is super important for any company that runs multiple channel marketing. Making imposs

Or maybe you just stop drinking Sodas at all. Might sounds a bit too radical, but both goods (sodas and straws) should simply NOT be in sale.

Fully agree with you. If you use Ruby on Rails (but any modern full-stack framework would do the trick), building a CRUD is indeed 90% automated already. All you have to do, and that's where the value lies, is putting the bricks togeth

I had to switch back to Chrome since Firefox has been almost unusable on mainstream site like Netflix. Can't wait to go back to Firefox as soon as 57 is out!

This release is in my opinion a life saver for Rails. Instead of forcing people to hop off the Rails train, it empowers them and let them choose their favourite JS library on top of it, while serving them hassle-free, in a very rails fashi

Totally feel you. I'm 29 and have this sense of urgency, that i am running out of time. My main problem is financial freedom. Is not about the money, it's about the freedom to do whatever i want, whenever i want. Is not that i wan

yes that's a service readily available in pretty much any developing country in the world. The not so fun part of it is that if the minivan you are in has nine seats and there are already, say, twenty passengers on it, plus a couple of

Looks extremely overpriced due to lots of investor hoping to get similar gains as the one from NVIDIA stocks. Without starting a flame war, i personally think AMD is lagging way behind NVIDIA, which lately has been releasing incredible prod
