Apple is probably like "let's just wait this out and let Zuck take all the heat and pain of getting this figured out. By that time he'll be out of money and we'll look like the heroes for fixing everything. If we go in t

The term “trafficking” unnecessarily obscures the reality of this phenomenon. It’s slavery. Call it slavery.

It won't be too long before it will be commonly understood that eating anything that kills bacteria is bad for people. Our guts contain a diverse and fragile ecosystem of bacteria, fungus, and viruses which can be disrupted by eating t

I come from the game development world and this is one of the reasons (in my opinion) why there are so many solid independent game makers that come from the Nordics.

I thought this died with Spotify’s nerfing/killing of API access. I had a project going with Mopidy which relied on it that I just dusted off the other night after a year and it wouldn’t authenticate. Kept saying “requires Premium acco

Modula-2! Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time. A long time.

This is just another example of Bobby Kotick and Activision executives being bad people. They've ruined the Blizzard brand and let the good people of Vicarious Visions down. Hopefully the game turns out well for all involved, but certa

You're not wrong that Apple knee-capped them. The thing that made their stock price dive was all of the applause.

It's only dangerous if you consider it authoritative. Informative and authoritative are different. It can expose you to terms you've never heard which you can then do further research on. This alone has been valuable for me so far

I agree. I haven't felt this excited by a new technology since the WWW. I can already solve hard problems with it which otherwise would require hiring consultants or spending inordinate amounts of time doing research. It's absolut

When your CEO is an engineer and wants to have an engineering conversation, you speak engineer together. The risk is that you lose. That's how Musk seems to have taken it, that the guy's answers didn't check out. It bothered

Elon should 100% be okay with one of his engineers responding to such a thing publicly if the engineer stays on topic and debates the points. My interpretation of why he fired the guy was that Elon thought the app sucked and this guy had wo

To be honest, I was a fan and explained away every offense he has made to date UNTIL he fired the Twitter Android app engineer publicly on Twitter. I felt that this engineer was engaging Elon about the problems at hand in a way that was adm

There’s a lot more financial opportunity in centralizing solar and selling the electricity than in providing residential solar, where they only can make money after the fact by selling batteries. As a public company, I can see how they woul

I have a hypothesis that these frequencies stimulate bacteria that live in/on you and cause them to modulate some neurotransmitters. Basically, they like it.

Are there states that have tried to do this but it's been defeated?

Yeah this feels like a rush job to take advantage of the moment, but they're really not prepared with anything substantial.

Love the look and the idea. Reminds me a bit of OmniOutliner and the more modern web app Dynalist. I want to be able to drag bits from one parent to another. This lets me start out with a flat list and iterate towards structure. Keep going!
