Imagine writing code so useful and flexible it lasts for decades, being used every single day by billions. DNS might not be perfect but it's one of those simple and elegant systems that keeps on trucking because of its simplicity.

I used to think that voice recognition sucked until I tried Google Assistant. Holy shit is it amazing when it picks up every single word you utter every single time. Truly impressive and if car manufacturers can license the voice tech from

Every single country has had a second wave. No, the reason why Sweden's covid-19 strategy is flawed, is the high number of deaths per capita, the government refusing to even suggest wearing masks, and failing to protect the elderly at

Right but you can be sure that many people across several teams inside of Google have thought about creating a Airtable clone. Somehow Google greenlit this as a standalone product amongst many other options...

Google should be inspired by their more nimble competitors! Their main problem is not offering Tables as part of G Suite where it would boost their offerings in the office productivity space and deliver a more complete and coherent strategy

Interesting that they would launch this as a totally separate product and not as a part of G Suite. Do you think they want to create some distance between them and the rest of Google because ofd Google's reputation of shutting down pro

You know what made me realize that Youtube isn't evil (just really terrible)? TikTok. Watching my small nieces abandon Youtube for TikTok's addicting 6-15 seconds long videos directly targeting kids (made by other kids!) has been

> This number may sound like a lot, but it’s actually quite small. In fact, the U.S. has produced roughly 83,000 metrics tons of used fuel since the 1950s—and all of it could fit on a single football field at a depth of less than 10 yard

I think you should transfer the domain to a gay rights org or similar because this type of domain squatting is obnoxious. I mean, you didn't even have a plan for the domain, just registered it for the novelty.

What Apple is doing isn't different from what manufacturers have been doing for centuries. Expensive repairs and parts have always been a way to earn more money at the expense of the consumer. I'm not saying their behavior is acce
