I agree, but it also interestingly at the same time gives me a conflicting thought - how can we be so confident that we know what's going on in/around our planet if such a huge percentage of the population doesn't have even t

Well both of your complaints were already addressed. Android introduced the scoped storage system to remove and fix abuse of "full" disk access, and they also added the foreground notification system which forces a system notifica

There's a difference between funding research and funding development and manufacturing. No company would develop and manufacture a drug if they wouldn't make profit of it, no matter how much related research was or wasn't do

Well I give them props for at least having a facade of a "what went wrong" section, which most RN articles leave out, although it doesn't feel like an honest analysis of the negatives of their switch. I'd like to see som

Whether or not any of the post is accurate, it really just comes off as a begrudged ex-employee trying to throw dirt. As a supposedly former "senior software engineer", their entire description of the problem is that their system

At even colder temps than that EV batteries start having even more problems, for example they become permanently damaged if charged at freezing temps or below, so even more energy has to be used to heat the batteries for the batteries to be

Not trying to be snarky here, but I'm curious what percentage of the people complaining in this thread also complained about the constant censorship and deplatforming by Twitter pre-Musk? Don't get me wrong, I think it's all

Well they start by listing out the advantages of stuff like Robux: "Parental controls implemented in recent years mean out-of-control spending by children is less of a concern than it once was. By topping up virtual wallets with a litt

The title claims that a four-day week trail shows that working less increases productivity. The article provides two data points for this. 1) The author's personal research, in which they say they measured a 10% increase in productivit

This comment is pretty much the definition of a straw-man argument. You're presenting an extreme opinion as the opinion of hundreds of millions of human beings. Just adding to the hate in the world.

Calmly and rationally? "It was relatively easy for most of us to condemn the allergic-to-truth rantings of former President Donald Trump. His lies were so transparent and prodigious that anyone outside the MAGA-verse could easily see t

Flu shots also use a vaccine mechanism that's been known/used for decades and is not a first of its kind in history mRNA treatment. I feel like this difference would lead towards one requiring more testing than the other, at least

"can charge itself 40 miles a day in optimal conditions." <- I believe this is the "basic math" that you were asked to run. Using random numbers from Google for a Tesla 3 for an example, it has a 50kWh battery and 305

Well, since this is from CNN, how about this fun game: I'll pay $10,000 to anyone that finds me a positive headline about Trump that CNN has ever at any point run. Heck, not even a positive article, how about just a neutral article? An

Are you seriously making the claim that nearly 100% of motorists run stop signs, and using a less than one minute long video of one specific intersection with less than 10 vehicles in it as some sort of proof? You're making a pretty bo

"I work at Google and they've told me to work 125 hours weeks". In that statement I provided just as much evidence for my claim as the article does their claim. In fact, there's more proof for my claim since it has a use

Well, you're doing a really great job reducing polarization and helping to improve the country by adding your partisan political hate into the mix and denouncing half of your fellow countrymen. Everybody else is the problem though.

Imagine how much impact we could have if we used all the effort gong to develop Rust and port everything over to Rust to instead just improve the wrinkles that exist in C++.

According to this random (obviously socially/politically motivated) twitter user, who says they heard it from someone else who was allegedly told this in private. That's pretty far from "Musk admits".
