They did attain the attention they sought, so good for them. Not sure the message was clear enough. Not sure it can be made clear enough. Not sure people want to hear it. I think they are tired of it in fact, because they can't do much

Nobody asked him, nobody needs him. He is not qualified. His whole main character syndrome is ridiculous. Kim Dotcom too, he wouldn't be able to find Ukraine on a map, but he knows that the United States is behind the war. These two ke

The mask hysteria was at least an opportunity to identify people who are so selfish that they had to make it all about themselves, which is what contrarianism is, pretending that you know better, unlike those sheeps doing what they are told

Blocking ads since at least 2005, never felt bad, I don't need it in my life, I wouldn't use the service if I had to watch ads. The way things are advertised is too distracting. I'm not interested in banners and such, but if

I keep saying that it's on you if you are getting that paycheck and still lonely in the 21st century, as most IT professionals apparently are. You can literally rent a friend on the internet and bake a bread with them, visit a museum o

The issue is that software is so layered, so you cannot guarantee much if the foundations are not solid. It's like as if a building is being built by different companies, most of them having to create a generic enough solution for othe

This is just the tip of the iceberg now that half the internet is about targeting emotions, including empathy for profit. Outside of the first world you can make a living by throwing puppies into the water and rescuing them. Most of the con

Hell no, absolutely not. There is a process of grief, and it hurts, but it should, and escapism is not the right answer. I would come back to haunt anyone doing this to me. Keep me in your memory the way I was, don't replace me with a

I think it's a discount, and he shouldn't flip-flop on it. I'm pretty sure he is not losing money on it and did it as a marketing opportunity. He keeps lying about everything, so who knows, but we shouldn't expect to bow

I agree with the regulators, we should start requiring an engineering license, holding software developers accountable for their work. Standards ought to matter for software just as much as it does for buildings and bridges. Potentially bi

It should be about motivation, and most people are best motivated by being paid adequately, not being harassed and being able to maintain a work-life balance. It doesn't hurt if you feel that you are making a difference at work either.

Google's Project Starline is much closer to a technology that actually enhances our lives, as opposed to trying to twist it into something else. Technology when done right is intuitive and mimics our natural environment, in which we ar

A more complicated solution would be having different markets and prices for different sources of electricity. It's not like these companies are price gouging, the renewables simply can't cover the demand, so electricity cost a lo

Well it needs to run on the Quest 2, so it looks uncanny, janky and all that, but it's running on smartphone hardware from 2020. Meta really wants to have it's own hardware platform, otherwise they are at a mercy of Apple, Google

I always suspected that this might be the reason. 13 is around where numbers start to feel less intuitive, more abstract, especially because it's a prime number, not a composite like even 14. 17 is similarly considered unlucky in some

That's a pretty good idea, I always say that there is nothing regulation can't accomplish. This is yet another thing the market failed to solve as the manufacturers are not incentivized to build security into their products. Milli

I see that these are curated, so it will take time to increase the selection, and of course the technology is young, so the pictures are not as detailed and high-resolution as the professional photos, but you have to start somewhere.

You can't permanently buy a domain name. Most registrars only let you register one for up to 10 years. Web hosting wouldn't even last that long. HTML itself will fair well, it's human readable and trivial to parse. Your best

Microsoft even ported Doom to Windows 95, though it could also run the DOS version. Bill Gates even appeared in the game in a DirectX promotional video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KN0K58EfJSg
