I can take my MacBook in to be repaired at any Apple authorized repairer or the official store. I got my entire MBP motherboard replaced at $0 cost to me a year ago. If I had a Framework, they wouldn't even be replying to me. That&#x27

The terrible support and build quality issues are all over the place. Support outright ghosts people trying to return broken stuff? What's going on here? https://old.reddit.com/r/framework/comments/1dvtqw

The sucky components aren't even limited to one area. I really want a powerful Linux laptop that is at least decent, the problem is they don't appear to exist.

This is an incredibly cynical and naive take so forgive me: if repairability is such a desirable trait why are all repairable laptops utter garbage? Even Framework has major quality issues. Thinkpads aren't like they used to be. Every

Reuters and Politico are biased? The Bureau of Labor Statistics, which the Biden admin operated at the time, is 'biased' against him?????? Still waiting for that rebuttal.

With this perspective, it would make a lot of financial sense for you to short the US markets or bet on this outcome. After all, you're certain it is true.

A Senior Software Engineer in Stockholm can expect to make less money than a Graduate Software Engineer in the United States, and will pay more taxes. It's simple, as a technologist, you live in Europe if retirement isn't importan

It seems profoundly irresponsible as a CEO to release this kind of speculation to employees, knowing it'll leak, and knowing it'll seriously damage your company. It seems like the kind of speculation you'd do with trusted lie

The notion that audits should be evenly distributed is nonsense. Someone making sub-$200K usually has basic W2 income, versus someone making $20M a year who likely has an extremely complicated web of capital gains, deductions, strategies, c

This is an extremely common misconception (or lie, depending on who's saying it). The IRS, even before the cuts, targets exclusively the middle class. More agents = more middle class shake downs. 63% of the IRS' audits under the B

If you are making a prediction on the viability of AGI assuming that an entirely new technology will make the efficiency problem of LLMs moot then you're essentially engaging in mysticism, aren't you? It is correct to say it is ma

The development of AGI assumes zero constraints, when constraints exist at every layer of the stack. That's why it's mathematically impossible. In a system driven by capital, manufacturing can ramp to an extent but they generally

It cites specific sections of the DSA. Your previous claim was that DSA did not have hate speech provisions. Are you claiming DSA Article 22 does not exist, for example?
