On your log you wrote, about the bugs you found, "no, i am not gonna bother reporting it, i am a user, not a TestCase" - Maybe that's why Pharo is so buggy?

I don't think bakeries or flower retail companies doing the right thing are the crux of the argument here, on HN of all places. We're talking about startups that are braving new grounds in terms of what they're able to do, mo

It's the first time we're automating legal casework and medical diagnostic work. Rest assured: it is different.

The trillions hidden away in tax havens would be a start.

If you haven't heard about this project before, their monthly progress reports are great examples of tackling technical matters in simple terms. Here's one from May https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2017/06&#x

For people talking about how the solution is to fix the tax code: the problem is not the tax code or the rates. Even if the tax rate was 2%, these people wouldn't pay it. I feel the problem is much deeper than that - the fact that Tim

Don't think the phone is 100% in house. They're using a base OEM model from someone that happens to have opensource drivers for everything (which makes me think it's an older model). But even just for the software, it seems l

That's short-sighted. Electron sucks, but the fact people use it means there's a lack of proper, easy solutions for multiplatform development. Companies will always take the easy path because capitalism. It's up to us (native
