I think you're circling some valid points, but realistically I don't think this happens in the current climate. There's a couple of forces at play - a) it's a medical issue that people are really passionate about b) ther

And another one! I actually used this regularly on my PC to remember places I'd gone to on trips, or back in time. > The company is switching to an on-device approach that is more private and works on each phone independently. They&

Not that angry! I appreciate the tone, though they deserve every right to protect their trademark.

Agreed, I personally believe no amount of jail time pays for the heinous crimes described above. The fact that they now get to enjoy a life heading an organization is infuriating to me compared to the life of trauma inflicted on the victim.

Absolutely agree. The ideas of 'publically accessible' files on S3 is so convoluted and the copy is not at all clear despite them adding all-caps in multiple places... And then policies are an attempt (I think) at simplifying perm

Speaking of hostile... Ironic to be telling people what they can do when you're unhappy about them doing the same! As for me, I'm absolutely upset. Older homeowners sit on housing with multiple unused bedrooms in major cities (and

No one is encouraging people to just 'walk into the country', where are you getting this from? It's illegal, they try to stop it, it's not perfect (never has been). If you cross the border illegaly, chances are you have

You could try to equate it with theft, but you'd make a poor argument. It's typical for licensing and other contracts to include provisions for minimums (in either direction, depending on who the bigger company is). Spotify isn&#x

Did you really just ask for a 409a in a public forum? You do realize those are closely guarded secrets?

Echoing the other response, this doesn't seem fair at all (and I don't even work in the space). I'd suggest you reflect on that opinion some more and think about why people work in defence.

Purely from an economics point of view, yes job hopping tends to net you larger pay raises and promotions. I think the flip side is that you won't build a reputation with 1 year stints at 10 companies. I currently work with a VP of pro

Besides on non-serious forums, I haven't seen people seriously propose this (this being anything nefarious like Boeing actually trying to take him out) with any evidence. The sentiment on HN from what I've seen is that we believe

Puff piece you would expect from key stakeholders in this whole fiasco (conveniently timed, might I add). Respect where respect is due, but nothing in this post is worth a grain of salt in my opinion.

If you've invested time into adding metadata and app-specific markdown to your setup, you lose that when you move to another tool. Has happened to me before. It's about vendor lock-in when you go too deep into their ecosystem.

Businesses are not their target market, never has been. They dominated the mobile phone market with their iPhone, and the iPad is still a gold standard product for tablets compared to the dozens of shoddy Android versions out there (coming

Physical products suffer the same fate. It makes no (capitalist) sense for a business to make a product that never needs to be replaced. In the US, it means we've seen brands like Levi's and L.L. Bean quality and guarantees declin

That's what I thought for Walmart+, but here I am 3 months into a free membership having used it once. Nearly all items I've compared are more expensive than Amazon and more expensive than in store. The nail in the coffin is their

> Yeah, it's only the 15th best selling console after all :/ That's one way to frame it. Another is that the PS5 is the worst-selling Playstation console (non-handheld) ever. It has not met expectations at all.

Those are very good points, and totally agree that large-scale farming today of nearly any food source is perverted to the point of being awful. I'd like to see a balance between clear regulation for humane treatment of animals _before

I don't think it's reasonable to draw an arbitrary line while farming other animals is allowed. We have and do eat octopus, and that isn't changing. They're more likely to go extinct if unfettered consumption isn't

I tend to agree. If you're going to allow people to anonymize their identities with your tools, and further use your tools to facilitate mass crime that results in damages or loss of life, you need to be accountable for that! I think t

Most if not all (the candy doesn't get stolen) the shelves have plexiglass, and there's buzzers placed every so often on the shelves. When you want someone, you press the buzzer and wait (usually pretty long) as they find you and

Just the 'nice parts', then? I'm down in South Brooklyn and the Walgreens has most of the pricier beauty products (and much more) locked up.

I would assume a device that records data is already fair game for evidence by legal means. If you want to get technocratic about it, you'd need to start arguing that this kind of tool is an extension of your mind/consciousness of
