No, but they could lose subscribers due to Podcasts. See, I pay for Spotify because of their playlists. Playlists have nothing to do with podcasts. I listen to my podcasts using a different app. Yet Spotify keeps throwing its podcasts in my

In a way this app is better for the employee, because the alternative is to have the employee punch a time card. In my wife's case, her time card machine is a web page. She has to start up a computer, sign in to the computer, sign in t

Saying you like helping people contradicts the earlier statement that you don't care. You care about helping people. That's actually how most of us get through the day. We may not believe in the product(s) our companies make. But

Read the article. This is one of those where the content is the opposite of the HN headline.

I don't think it's really about the AI at all. The article mentioned a live feed which the AI activates so that your can be berated by a real-live person. From personal experience, I feel like that's what the quitting is trul

Everyone asks why it takes 2 months to develop, test and deploy a patch. Nobody ever asks why it took over 10 years for criminals to find and exploit this bug. What were they doing all this time? Why did it take them so long? Do criminals h

The single worst feature with Tesla is it takes at least two taps to turn on wipers. During that time, it has just started raining, which is a dangerous time to take your eyes off the road. And you must take your eyes off the road because t

Sure, it could be done. I could imagine some kind of nonlinear steering response system that could handle it. However, in my experience with them as a Tesla Model Y owner, I don't trust Tesla to do it right. My Tesla's rain-sensin

The problem isn't just with the area but also location. Would it be okay if it were about the size and location of a rainforest? That's what we're doing here in Florida. Drive down I-10 and you'll see large previously-fo

If your project is targeting an environment you don't control, and doesn't behave exactly like an environment you have exclusive access to, your code won't run the same way in the production environment as it does on your mac

Interesting that on this map, the only state boundary revealed by this data alone is North Dakota. Any ideas why that might be?

I like this reason because you don't need to know anything about tech at all to be able to understand this. You also don't need to trust or like Snowden. If you view Snowden as a hero or a traitor, it changes nothing. All you need

Tell them Elon Musk says use Signal. Adds the 'cool' factor that is very important in these kind of negotiations. People like the SpaceX guy. Has already worked for me, although I don't know how long it will last. https:&#x2

We gave up on the fairness doctrine because it didn't work. It forced news media to give equal time to the 1% of crackpots who disagreed with the 99% of scientists on a number of topics, including climate science. It was always going t

They didn't need to spy. They already knew and didn't care. The president held a speech in the morning, addressing his supporters who had traveled from all over the country to come to Washington. He told the crowd to storm the Cap

It's a lot more complicated than that. There is very real and powerful anti-democratic fervor over here. Hundreds of members of the House of Representatives are involved in it, and several members of the Senate also. One member was act

I've considered joining Facebook but only to run it on one laptop inside a Facebook container, and never install their mobile app.

Anyone who would only delete Facebook for personal gain fits right in with the Facebook ethos, and therefore should not delete Facebook.

Interesting. Judging by the people sitting next to me in traffic or at the beach, most people are perfectly fine with letting the entire world know what kind of music they enjoy listening to. Even when the rest of the world doesn't car

If the people who will be in command of thousands of American soldiers and lethal weaponry across the globe are willing to lie, cheat, or cut corners to further their own career, that's not good for America or the world.

I've never run chkdsk /f on Windows 10 or really even since Windows 8 came out TBH. So many people are claiming they loved Windows 7 so much, but the irony is Windows 7 was the last Windows OS where chkdsk /f was actually nee

I'm still relatively new to Linux. My question is why wouldn't Fedora Server be considered an alternative for the CentOS diaspora? It seems a better fit than Debian to me.

The question though is why shouldn't those workers receive a larger share of their own productivity gains? As we work harder, we should receive more. But since the mid-1970's workers have received only a fraction of their own prod

I like your definition of ambient TV. I like to turn off all the lights and use my OLED to light up a room using only 4K video of a 4-hr train ride. Now that's ambient tv.

Not just Github. Having any GUI be your first interaction with Git is a disaster. Right now the only way to learn Git is via book or man page, and command line. All the decent GUIs I have used assume you already know Git. They are great and

Ah, yes. I remember. Ten years ago we worried about trivial things like how honest the dating sites were. In 2020 this story wouldn't raise an eyebrow.

I found Go to be a really nice replacement for C#. It has the static typing and garbage collection, but you also get a self-contained binary executing without the requirement of an external runtime environment. I also discovered that I don&

Yep. It's just a job. You're supposed to go in there, do the work, and if you didn't do any scandals you get reelected. You're not supposed to be in the spotlight every day. You're not supposed to juice the economy
