That’s not what you said. This is what you said: > It's not the job of the lawmakers to follow the constitution. It is exactly their job to both follow and interpret the Constitution in executing their function as legislators and

I have no idea if it’s easier to censor technologically, but it isn’t encrypted either and it is a carrier-based messaging standard.

I think he understands it pretty well. Implicitly, explicitly, however you like. It’s a PERL script that has been reimplemented a hundred different ways. “Read” in this instance means as a writer reviewing his own writing, not as the final

Markdown is an intermediate format between a writer and rendered HTML. It is easier to read, write and edit as a writer (or someone reviewing someone else’s writing intended for the web) before generating and serving HTML. It’s not a supers

I’ve been using Markdown since 2006 and for me it’s always been: *emphasis* (i.e. italic) **strong emphasis** (i.e. bold) You can use underscores in exactly the same way, but the reason I’ve stuck purely to asterisks is that it’s just sligh

A Judge doesn’t get to call in an irrelevant party to a case simply to apply their judgements to them as well. Google lost their lawsuit on the strength of the evidence against them specifically.

Apple has not been ruled a monopoly in any capacity. Google has.

I don’t see this even making it to SCOTUS unless there’s a circuit split somewhere.

This. Rent prices have been skyrocketing across the country. There’s multiple causes, but there is good reason to believe that software-mediated collusion is one of them.

Don’t forget the bureaucratic morass and red tape intended to make construction on one’s own land as difficult as possible in California cities.

As long as people don’t lose sight that the there’s a lot more inflating prices than this, going after collusion and price fixing—including mediating software—is still a worthwhile endeavor.

Nah, most business books or “ideas” books really are too long. Something I used to do when I was interested in a book is I would go to the local book store, skim the introduction and chapter listings to get a feel for the book, find the cha

Not that I can blame the Swiss for wanting to make the trains run on time, but I laughed at this part: > SBB introduced the regulation back in July 2022 in consultation with Deutsche Bahn. Introduced as a "temporary measure" at

Well I meant as a phone accessory, like a watch or AirPods or Oura ring. I think there’s maybe some potential there. As for mounting, if you look at Axon’s bodycam website you can see they offer a variety of mounting options. The solution H

So I wonder about that. I was thinking about it last night, and the Judge took issue specifically with Google paying to be the default. What if Apple didn’t take a deal with anybody to be the default, but offered a search engine choice scre

It is an easy mistake to make because Van Ness is a strange station to have been built. It’s past the point where the BART tracks turn towards Mission and is close enough to Civic Center to seem redundant; but I guess a ton of civic buildin

It’s really not a good sales message. People love their phones. Replacing it with something that’s kinda like a phone but more finicky because it’s trying to not be a phone is pointless, and for those who do want to untether from their phon

If he was going via BART, Van Ness doesn’t have a BART station. If he was going via MUNI, technically yes but not by a lot.

We don’t actually know that. I do sometimes wonder if that’s the case, but you shouldn’t state something as a fact without anything to back it up.

Google pays to be the default, not for exclusivity as evidenced by the list of SEs Apple provides to swap to. I never knew what the hell Apple was doing with the extremely limited set of search engines with the only means to change it being
