Not sure why this was downvoted. AstroTurf? Anyway, this was really what I was looking for anyway. Thanks.

Where does Monsanto stand now? It’s been many years since HackerNews was AstroTurfed by them.

An ever-increasingly rare drop in my total subscription costs is a nice good will gesture. Will this mean a significant price increase in icloud+ is coming down the road? Only time will tell.

There are grounds legally if shareholders can prove that the "long-term risk reduction" argument is a lie, they can sue under the Duty of Loyalty. In reality, yes, this amounts nuisance lawsuits, large settlements and disruption a

I wish I could any of the content in this ‘study’ is surprising. It’s obviously nothing but bad for everyone involved other than the Ellison regime. Is there a Kalshi event for whether this goes through or not? My money would be on 100% yes

As an American, I identify more with European culture compared to 10 years ago.

We’re standing at a table and there’s an apple and orange there. You pick up the apple, take a bite and say “This orange tastes great.” We all know what you’re trying to say but you’re still wrong.

Next headline: Flock declares Hacker News a terrorist organization.

Totally agree, we already know Flock is inept and lies about obvious truths. I want to know more about this .

I believe this is a new accounting method called “phantasmagorical accounting.”

In its current state the economics of the company make little sense to me. The astronomical costs to execute a prompt versus the relatively tiny price tag to the customer smells like an Enron scandal to me except everyone knows it and we’ve

I have an interest for tools in this area. Is this offering something you couldn’t get by using something like netbox[1] or Nautobot[2]? 1: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox 2: https://github.com&#

I was reading the article but I found little consideration that light at night isn’t necessarily the cause of heart changes but the same habits that would be indicative of light at night; long periods of sitting, lack of mobility, stimulant

That works for a while until you have to do a restore from backup and the apps that used to be on the phone will not reinstall because they dropped support. Also make sure to have optimize storage off, so apps don’t just disappear randomly.

If it doesn’t generate campaign dollars or stock profits for congressional members, it doesn’t happen.

I think having more distribution in launch locations and more provider options will ultimately be a net positive in the long run.

November sure will be interesting and lots of fun. Controlling the speed of mail delivery is certainly one lever the executive branch has up the sleeve. Perhaps not direct control on paper; we threw the book out years ago.

Is the wifi spec or perhaps chip required for it subject to export control?

One silver lining about all this is that at least we got relentless prosecution against sandwich throwers. A precedent has been set for any and all hoagie heroes or throwers of sandwiches. The real mockery is that the Biden administration d

If you can offer a reduced AI slop place where i can simply keep contacts and stay updated with their career progression, I’d drop LinkedIn in a heartbeat. The question is and always has been how can you monetize that for yourself without t

What’s your point? The bar to arrest him is higher than the bar for termination so it’s highly likely he’ll be fired at the very least, especially if he’s charged. Also, more broadly, what I mentioned above is a general statement about firi

Completely agree that there is a possible silver lining of exposing some of these. However, even if they get fired from this department, they often just get hired later by their buddies in the neighboring county.

Yes I think most of those boxes are checked. I’m still somewhat fascinated/baffled by the fact that many people seem to paradoxically associate these traits with “good leadership.” It’s a tale as old as time.
