It’s below estimates, so it’s by definition “surprising” relative to the people whose business it is to predict these things. Disastrous may be going too far unless it portends further drops going forward. But disastrous may also be the rig

I don’t understand what Google is doing. Their reputation is awful right now. There’s no scenario under which I can recommend a new (or existing, outside maybe Google Maps, Search and a handful of well established money makers) Google produ

Some of the discourse in the U.S. is so weird. It simply pretends the rest of the world doesn’t exist. The classic Onion headline “‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens” refers to gun violence specifically

GitHub won well before because git was superior to existing open source SCM solutions and GitHub created Pull Requests which made forking and contributing code back from your fork trivial. The only real question at the time was whether Git

Lottery winnings and costs in the U.S. are treated exactly the same as any other gambling winnings and costs. You can deduct the costs of a lottery ticket but only against any winnings. You cannot deduct it against other income. https:&#x2

The only needed population control is to wipe out all Americans. That would do more than wiping out people from several continents. But I bet that’s not what the “population control” crowd is thinking. The “population control” crowd is almo

It’s a report meant to highlight possible future risks. Is there any organization that can operate with no non-public communications at all? And none of them have the sort of checks most western governments do, including heavy protection fo

This is a myth. Cheap labor is a benefit but not the primary reason companies are manufacturing in the U.S. today. Look at TSMC. It started setting up US operations years ago and is expecting to complete many years from now. OTOH they start

Yes I have. But that’s completely irrelevant because I’m not a lawyer. Ben Thompson and Gruber are not lawyers. Lawyers I’ve followed have not found any mistakes though they do think some stuff is pushing it, but that’s completely normal an

Exactly. This also further deepens Chinese dependence on the government which means the government’s on the hook for more things. And the way the Chinese government is doing it they’re on the hook on both sides, both on the supply and deman

That’s the point though. The technical solutions exist. We need to do better at figuring out how to beat the power of the business model. The hundreds of billions of dollars that the current lock-in of corporate social media brings in is a

Right, now factor in the cost of architecting software not because that’s the best architecture for your use case but to save money on the specific infrastructure choice you’ve made.

The new mantra with the cloud champions in my company is that cloud was never meant to save money. It’s a premium experience that’s about saving time. This did not sound right so I dug into the emails our leadership sent us between 6-3 year

I think the “printers” nor “directories” is a red herring. The problem is that computers could be configured. There were commands and scripts that you could run to fix things. So basically there was something to troubleshoot. You learns how
