While you are right, it’s not limited to telcos or isps, seems like in general consumer pricing must be required to be transparent.

This is not an ISP problem, this is a consumer problem. A simple all industry regulation can fix it. Requiring all advertised prices to always include all taxes, surcharges and mandatory fees. All ambiguity to be interpreted in consumer’s f

This can be said about anything. It also appears that they were good specifically at competitive math problem solving. Which one can say even more narrow area of math. Nevertheless, it does correlate with general intelligence and they were

Honest question: how are you monetizing? I don’t see a single ad on the website, but I have not tried to use it to edit any document. Are they being injected at the time of edit?

Depending on which OS system you use, your programs can connect to internet and leak your data. As far as I know, neither Windows nor macOS have any built in firewall for outgoing connections. For mac Little Snitch or Lulu are indispensable

It depends on terms. That’s why I think the rate maybe reduces. It would be also strange if powerwalls with installation were just gifted to them.

Can confirm. Cost of transactions in trust-less societies is a very heavy burden. Also, it goes hand in hand with corruption.

Something like a plugin is a fairly well defined thing and ideally should not need a lot of permissions. E.g. an ad blocker has a simple flow: occasionally update filters from a number of specified endpoints and then match and block web pag

I think CTEs and window functions in version 8 were big, combined with udf you could write some very complicated queries for data analysis without exponentially growing number of joins.

This reminds me of Intellij’s new ui. Instead of investing in window and tab management, they changed icons. At the new UI is optional for now.

Gig companies call it a two-sided market place and just use different names to describe “producer” and “consumer”. From this point of view both are users.
