Sport is a huge issue that affects a large number of people. You cannot just brush it aside like that. The same reasoning is going to apply to e.g. restroom usage as well.

What's wrong with this tweet? This is a common view. Gender identity is a very extreme concept that erases sex as a protected characteristic.

The framing here is really disingenuous. Being concerned about men who "identify" as women being allowed in women's sport is completely reasonable and not mere "resentment". There are real physical differences betwe

Easy fix: ask for sex instead of gender. 3 options: male, female, won't state. Genuine intersex people are incredibly rare and have faced this choice many times before and will just choose the one they feel comfortable with; it won&#x2

I don't have a clue about VR stuff, and this is the first time I'm hearing about "Firefox Reality". Why do you need a special browser? What's different about this one?

I'm really confused, IFTTT is free for individuals and the signup flow was very easy for me. What exactly did you do to go so off track?

You don't redownload it every time. If your browser cache gets removed then so does the game. Is your browser cache getting removed every time? This just strikes me as a really strange thing to say.

Why doesn't it make sense? You don't redownload it every time.

Eh? I don't really understand; a progressive web app is standalone, but of course the browser has to be involved, it's a web app .

I'm not sure what your point is though. Yes, Google could take an internal project, turn it in to a product, and then "proceed to screw up said product"...over the course of, what, 5, 10 years? What is the point of speculatin

I'm really baffled by this question. Screw what up? Fuchsia is not a product; some people at Google are working on a project and it's gotten a bit of attention. I'm just confused as to the level of entitlement that would pres

I just want to say I'm really shocked that you would continue to argue with this person, who obviously has dramatically more experience with this particular topic than you do. What exactly are you trying to do, prove them wrong? You al

Actually it struck me as really tenacious of him and I'd be willing to believe he has some merit. I'd like to see the data.

I think one flaw in your analysis is that Flutter is not analogous to "Java in the enterprise": it's already very pleasant to use compared with modern web frameworks.

Yeah, I actually agree with that. I wonder why you think our statements were incompatible, because that is the sort of thing I would have described as a "silly dismissal". The problem was clearly an AI problem right up until it&#x

I don't think your reasoning here is sound. PoW is the elected federation of validators, it's just that they're elected in a very flexible way.

It looks like you took the exact opposite inference from the parent than I did: it's not about vaporware, it's about people's impossible standards for what's considered "artificial intelligence". The neural net

tl;dr PWAs are on the brink of being a "thing": technical abilities are accumulating, but it's not clear if the political will to "commit to the web" exists. If you have experience developing native apps, just do th
