And the quality of your product and what customers are willing to pay, though that seems a fading requirement when customers are 'everywhere.'

I think a more obvious question is how are Amazon making this possible if it's not profitable otherwise?

I get that, and I've been in the camp warning people of that many times, but I think it's an interesting situation where so much essentially public data is on a private platform. What happens if YouTube shuts down tomorrow? A, w

It's impossible, yes? Let's see what happens next US election as a good start, I can't imagine what becomes 'misonformation' or 'harmful,' no matter which party wins. And still you wasted brain space to r

It's a stupid excuse. I guess all those 'Fail' videos will be de-monitised now?

Wow so much focus in the comments on the individual instead of YouTube's ability to randomly remove whoever they dislike, reminding us of the problems with large corporate companies controlling essentially public services. Just imagin

I think the point you're making is there's no such thing as the Far Left, despite the Far Right seeing such common use.

All this time we're spending trying to get AI to work properly. I think we're heading into that last 10/20% where it gets tricky.

Phew, there I was thinking Apple do their best to make sure customers buy the new phone every year, but glad to hear it's not happening thanks to Apple. I mean, Apple should just release a new model every five years and really get that

It's just 'brand.' Companies don't generally give two stuffs about their staff, as you find out when anything like unions or HR complaints come up.

New iPhone threads make me laugh. I could never imagine replacing a one year old laptop/PC just because it had a new port. Especially if I had a bunch of cables for the old port anyway.

Nothing about 'affirmative action' is inclusive. People just see it as positive 'because minority.' It can not lead to a positive outcome longer term (even now, where all-female teams are now seen as a positive but all

Meanwhile it creates stigma around Indigenous = disadvantaged which a) is a terrible way to label a group and b) ignores all the other disadvantaged people for the sake of signalling empathy the 'right' way.

It has little to do with politics except how political parties (yeah both) will manipulate it. It's a societal issue. It's a pity everything is politics and polarisations these days.

Ok I get what you're saying now. Still though, you can't exactly identify as such without the blood... But this is the whole ludicrous thing; what are they actually identifying as? . Traditional landowners? Cultural martyrs?

You can't 'identify' as indigenous. You either are or you're not. Andrew Bolt was a stupid provocateur. If getting political, the ALP has no objection to anyone so long as they support their view... same as the Liberal

That's not what I said. I said the culture (for the sake of the referendum) is contextualised by skin tone, because if they showed lots of 'white' people as those they're bringing a voice to people would be confused and

Which makes it a little odd to separate out 'indigenous' as needing a separate legal or advisory entity doesn't it? What is the position of the 1% indigenous? It is referring to a culture contextualised by skin colour. It&#

It's not that bit you need to check, it's the 'how' behind it. 'Inclusive' is also incredibly easy to abuse.
