Any big lawyer group that would be willing to go up against meta will rip through 500k in 6 months or less and then wish you the best at the end of those few months of representing you.

He's not an idiot, he just doesn't think the law applies to him because he's one of the richest people in the world.

Disney can fire people anytime they like if that person isn't meeting company/contractual obligations. What is illegal and that doesn't seem to matter to the current regime is that the FCC chair is saying that major media out

None of that stands if one of the entities in a contract is breaking the law, and I'm guessing that colluding with China to break international human rights laws is not protected by a contract as it's illegal in the USA and likely

A basic reference for beginners or people looking at doing some simple parsing? Someone who wants a tiny code footprint for a small hobby project on a limited processor? Although in that case I would almost certainly use TOML or similar ins

Yeah I use this and I think most of friends do too :)

Or fork and make a few modifications to handle it? I have to admit I haven't looked at the code to see if this particular code would allow for that.

Everything they sell is related to ending privacy, promoting surveillance, and support of slow frog boil fascism to replace democracy in the west and as a means to enriching Thiel and the other owners of Palantir; how can you not single it

People like Thiel think it's the techno nobility that should run the world. There are more "evolved" and intelligent than the riff raff who aren't billionaires. It's really just neo-eugenics

I was, I was also seeing if the hackernews braintrust would freak out at AI much like reddit does, so it was sort of tongue-in-cheek experiment. And freak out they did.

This fee doesn't make any sense to be honest. It's another "simple solution" by the current regime. Just like tariffs and "illegal immigration bad" . It's insane what Americans will put up with. Everything

That's what they're saying today. What happens Monday when Trump's not distracted by "Sunday Golf" ?

Still wondering where the $50k went. Also why isn't this the biggest story out this weekend? At least on left/center news sites. I can see conservative news outlets participating in a coverup.

It was bad under previous adminstrations. Expect it to become an order of magnitude worse under the current fascist regime with him treating FBI, etc as personal brown shirt army and not in their traditional roles

They also do their best to try and force you in a corner and get you to lie, since lying to them is a felony. Then they use that as leverage to scare you further.

yeah, it's fine on desktop but it's dog on my iphone 12. I prefer the look and UI over most modern websites though. If was using the products from webhog I'd probably enjoy navigating around and interacting more than most sit

"THere are criminals though!" and "think of the children" are what will bring in full authoritarianism. People are afraid of their own shadows these and want to live a 100% secure life at ANY cost.

WHile I don't expect privacy, I want it, and I want other people to really think about it and not want public surveillance as well. We should have some expectation of privacy out in public and not allow a loophole of "oh, but we w

they've lost all sense of nuance. Everyone is evil if they don't have an R beside their name. It's all about shutting off the brain and trusting the process (of indoctrination)

the president's power has expanded far too much over the past 30 years. The supreme court and congress are really failing at their jobs.

Chrome is the most popular browser, if you disconnect that then you cut off google's guaranteed control of the default search engine. That's just a hunch though. Same with Android which is the most popular mobile OS in the world.

In most of these convos I usually see both sides with it being more heavily weighted to being corpo-friendly, but certainly individuals who are tired of monopolies and manipulations by oligopolies. So that's hardly a "beehive mind

I think rates are simply too high and they are going to come down due to political and public pressure.

.... yet. We as consumers could push for this though with enough momentum. Not likely but there is nothing stopping Apple from doing it from a technical standpoint other than greed.
