Really enjoyed this read, but also couldn't help but feel sorry for the author still trapped in the labyrinth. "Just one more CMS and I'll be free..." The jewel in the post is the rejection of Vannevar's acolytes an

It's a group that took statistics from Wikipedia articles of famous people to then run the headline "rock and rollers twice as likely to divorce." That headline is misleading. They didn't study rock and rollers, they stu

Rather than swallow the headline, ask yourself what a church-aligned think tank has to gain out of smearing online dating in the press? Some of their other research: "Rock and rollers twice as likely to divorce" https:/&#x2F

What content blockers do people use alongside Safari on iOS? I've been trying Firefox Focus but it's barebones, ad-centric, and doing nothing for cookie popups. Now with these Google popups infesting the web it feels like the 90s

I also got a chuckle because the author is a professional AWS architect and still couldn't avoid accidental charges. Well, architect isn't salesman! Thankfully the mistake was corrected by paying the bill in full.

This is my thought too. We are reading articles like this at the onset of a new law because it plays well to crowds who want to have Online Opinions about government oversight. If the problem is as bad as these articles claim, then these fa

Kitchenaid, Cuisinart, these are the kinds of brands I'm talking about. They had their moment last century but the brand has been transferred to a new owner, or they've switched to volume sales in a big box retailer, or both. Kitc

I just don't see it. My pens and my matchsticks work fine. My gloves are still gloves five winters later. Potato peeler, peels potatoes. I think the author doesn't understand that there's a tier of disposable goods for just a

Don't make your goal to be accurate state across the internet. Game making is all about lies, cheats, steals, and fudge. In this situation you can stream movement waypoints from remote clients and lerp between those waypoints locally t

The Leftovers is indeed aware of the show formula I'm critiquing, it's even in the theme song: "guess I'll just, let the mystery be." This is Lindelof indoctrinating the viewer to accept his style of writing, which

I avoid anything by Abrams or Lindelof at this point because they are emblematic of this writing formula. You can see it in Lindelof's The Leftovers, Abrams' Star Wars, and of course LOST. It's also present in any pilot they

That's not how Microsoft historically operates. Programs I wrote 20 years ago still work on Windows using ancient apis that they carry, because they care about backwards support. Whatever obscure msc or exe you ran in the 90s is still

The thread is about removing the label, not the whole search box. Which is a sort of silly thing to complain about, but Windows 11 has a lot of taskbar feature regressions. You can't even pin the thing to the left or right edge anymore

CSIS has published data on the rise of domestic terrorism. [1] NYT has published data about the growth of CSAM due to tech companies. [2] Would you engage with the point of my comment if I called the domestic terrorism non-linear growth, an

I've always thought that TiVo was way ahead of its time. The company is still alive but it feels weird to talk about it in present tense when we've got Roku, Chromecast, Firestick, and Apple TV. Even the era of cable provider DVR

Social media products have been critical to the exponential growth of domestic terrorism and CSAM. So I definitely want the FBI being proactive on these platforms and to have a much, much, bigger team than 80. It should be 80 per state. Peo

The post is about the economics of eSports. One of the big revenue sources is advertisers. The viewership numbers are inflated with low value incentived users so that the gaming companies can misrepresent their true audience size and get mo

eSport viewership numbers are untrustworthy because the games incentivize players to tune in with special in game rewards. Also for reference the last Superbowl was watched by 100M viewers.

The extension would need both the all_urls and webRequest permissions to do this, since you can only spy on requests to origins your extension has a host permission for. The review team discourages all_urls permissions and scrutinizes them

I think you missed the point of my comment. I don't believe the author's premise at all, that population will decline. The population is still growing as it always has. Why would it stop now? The author makes no argument that it w

Kid-having emerges. This (western biased) article is blaming the victim. An entire generation bled dry by student loans for useless degrees, unable to buy homes that their elders view as retirement funds. A thousand and one more entertainin

No he's made a few mistakes. Yes the political tribalism you describe is in play. But also there's the brutal layoffs, ridiculous work demands, withheld severance, and botched feature rollouts. All have had negative impact on Musk

Along the lines of letting the market sort it out, we could vote for the government to end meat subsidies, or generalize them into protein subsidies available to alternative proteins.

Given the history of IoT botnets, the remote control aspect is exactly why this is a bad idea. Cops are not more technologically savvy than the average person. There's no way to tell at a glance if a death robot is controlled by good g
