I'm not sure I agree. I used the Chicago95 theme (with some added 98 icons) for a good 2 years. The only reason I stopped was because I left the job I was at and couldn't be bothered to replicate the experience on my private devic

TV ratings did this as an aggregate of estimated viewer preferences. Doing that immediately on an individual level is wholly different.

I have an archive of Jon Stewart as host of The Daily Show from 1999 to 2015. It's over 3000 episodes and it's such a trip putting that on shuffle and seeing what the topic was on any particular day.

A lot of times, you simply can't solve the source of stress or it takes a lot of time before you're able to. How do I solve having cancer or any other health issue? Like most things in life, it's not something that's sol

Adapting isn't the issue though? It just feels much nicer to play on my 144Hz monitor than it does on my 60Hz monitor. This is first-world problems territory at most. It's not just gaming either. Doing anything on my 144Hz feels

Meh. "Intellectualizing" is just another form of what Buddhism or Stoicism have been doing for thousands of years. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it, and it can be extremely helpful to take a closer look at your emotio

I think the fact that it's impossible to know what could be in a dictionary without explicitly checking makes dicts an awful solution. A lot of times I'll encounter functions that take maps, but I'll have to reverse engineer

I checked the big ISP in my area and I can't even find a way to book dial-up. Is that still a thing in places? edit: Oh, apparently there's still a handful here? https://www.teltarif.de/internet/by-call/e

Or rather it's a matter of trade-offs and some things are just "good enough". It's not up to you what's good enough for him or me, especially weighed against the amount of effort I might have to invest to get someth

Geopolitics affect all of us, particularly the "small" countries (and they matter too, because everybody deserves to live in security and free of oppression from neighboring states). Whether you want to recognize it or not. The

It's pretty much impossible to find an outlet in Germany in public. Certain types of trains have them, but many don't. Like, the only guaranteed outlets I can rely on are at home or at work, and even at work, I'm constantly m

Wait, what does Threads show you if it doesn't have a following feed? Also, how the hell do you launch a Twitter competitor without search and tags?

I wonder how it ranks compared to other github projects in number of issues opened vs issues closed/resolved, median time to resolve issues, etc.

I really don't give a shit, tbh. You can't argue that the FTC is unjustified by saying that the OP is wrong in saying it's monopolistic, when FTC isn't saying they're a monopoly. Like, what even is this discussion?

by Sakos 3y ago
You don't need a monopoly to engage in anti-competitive behavior. Ffs. Antitrust isn't necessarily about monopolies. How is that so hard to understand?

You think being publicly traded would be better? That just gives a business perverse incentives detached from the quality of the business's products/services.

It's relevant because they aren't just VC bros or Saudis. It's just 670k. I'm not sure why you're so worked up about it or why you think Kagi shouldn't get additional funding.

by Sakos 3y ago
The funding is from investors who are Kagi users. You could sign up to be a part of their next funding round if you want.

I'm a fairly heavy user. I used around 1000 searches last month. I wouldn't draw any conclusions from my own usage habits about how other people use the internet or how many searches they'd need.

Competition is free if you don't care about your privacy or your personal data. Many don't, sure, but it seems enough do care such that Kagi has continued to grow and improve over time. A tall order for what? They already have ple

There's a huge difference between typical VC funding and what this is. Kagi is already a self-sustaining business with a working and effective search engine. This is extra funding on top that they have available for improving Kagi. Tha

Honestly, where are they even getting junior developers that don't know some basic amount of SQL or can't learn it in an afternoon? It's such a non-issue. What a great way to ensure juniors never gain proper SQL experience&#x

Windows already has a default browser setting. I don't see how Microsoft making Outlook by default ignore that is okay.

Yeah, no. This is insanity. Firefox can keep your authentication too. Just login on FF or show a prompt. WHAT WAS THE WHOLE POINT OF TOKENS. It already works perfectly fine with non-Edge browsers. This is ridiculous anti-competitive garba

I'm not sure why it's suddenly so difficult to take down a monolithic application. It's totally doable and isn't that difficult. It happens all the time too. For me, the funny thing is I've found that it can be just

Well, yes, because that's what all these alternatives are like now. I also haven't seen any motivation to become more accessible to users in general. If somebody writes a client that's perfect in accessibility, but users neve
