My solution is probably bad advice, but I found effective to commit either financially or to someone so I have to do it, I put myself in a position where I don't a way out other than deliver.

it is scarry that most users don't have any clue of what app collects and why it matter. I feel like we are in the dark age of Internet when only few knows how it work and 95% of the population trust them because they don't how it

Are these numbers wrong? https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share In the comments I read some really big numbers regarding the Mac dominance, can this be caused by a bias (country + income)? In this data OSx seems to be u

How is an ad defined? In the case of mining i.e. they probably don't explicitly define it as an ad, no? Also I guess using clients' computing power for AI is as valuable as mining Monero.

Technology like this, used to deliver vital services and not enabling more consumption like we usually see is probably a step in the good direction.

It is asynchronous communication, like emails, the recipient can listen to it when they are available, but you don't need both to be available in the same time.

SMS is considered as really obsolete in Europe, even older people use WhatsApp. I think I have not sent a single SMS in the last 2 years. In Asia there are other services like WeChat (China) or Zalo (Vietnam) that are really popular, it rea

It is really interesting to see the difference between countries, I travel between Asia and Europe and I knew that iMessage existed, but I thought people dropped it like SMS, years ago. Interesting to see that in a globalized world some dif

You can also add the parameter "-app" followed by the website URL in a chrome shortcut and it will open as an app.

Yes, but this is my point, what if the peak just shifted this year. All the people that might have died because of the flu are now dying from COVID-19. People looking back at the data in 100 years won't probably notice that there was a

How are we sure about this? We cannot anymore but are we sure that the lockdown will lower the global mortality? Why are we not acting rationally anymore? Are we sure that fear did not take over and now we just do as everybody because nobod

On this chart you can see that this peak is normal for the period, even lower than 2016.

Yes, but what about comorbidity, when people die from cancer but had Covid-19, how do you define what killed them?

How many of these would have died anyway, I am asking about the difference in numbers, not a feeling.

Honest question: Did we see any anormal mortality in any country caused by the covid-19? Countrywide there seems to be less death than usual on the period January-March in Europe. Edit: And here goes my karma. I will need to do some PR to c

Anarchy means no authority, it does not mean no rules. I would suggest that anarchy needs a full belly instead and it's probably closer to mankind that capitalism.
