What is the perceived "value" the walled garden is giving you? I've always owned an android, and not once had to worry about security or malicious apps. Apple seems to have sold everyone on this idea that Android is super ins

Except, the lockout is self imposed. Reddit's "crime" is closing down their API... users just need to use the actual reddit app and they can keep their connection/communities going. It does sucks for the people who&#x2

My understanding is VCs prefer Delaware C Corp because it's what they understand and are familiar with. Everything else is "reinventing the wheel". It's the De facto standard.

Parental controls/monitoring are an acceptable invasion of privacy. There's been a big push by these companies to at least appear to care about privacy, which results in parental control apps being limited in what they can do. A

Parental features fail far too often. As someone deeply knowledgable about the space, it makes complete sense why some parents opt for a dumb phone or no phone and its not due to the parent being lazy.

iOS screen time/parental controls are a joke to bypass. To be clear I'm not aruging that parental controls are bad or not worth it--I'm arguing that Apple's built in mechanisms fail far too easily. https://pr

Whether lyft goes out of business or is acquired by Uber, Uber will still end up a monopoly won't it? If lyft died today I'd bet uber would capture most of its market.

We never sit on our lawn. But we play soccer on it. Have water gun fights on it. Let the kids run through the sprinklers on it, etc.

My lawn is 100% for my kids. Schools give kids less and less time to get their energy out. They need areas to play and exhaust themselves more than ever. Most dog owners use the backyard in a similar fashion. Though thats only the backyard

> Amazon didn’t take any action at all This suggests they wanted amazon to accept their "irrefutable proof". I hate fake reviews. I'm not defending them. But the fact that literally every site of significant size that o

> Amazon could take your report then actually open the product and see if the incentive card is actually stored with every product. But that's a bigger task than just trusting the proof you sent in.

> irrefutable proof Anything coming directly from a customer is probably refutable. For example, the incentives I normally see are on these little cards they include with the product encouraging reviews in exchange for a gift card or so

Their documentation is very clear about scans being expensive. Amazon isn't to blame for the poor engineering decision.

The title of the article isn't a fair representation of what the author actually says. The author dislikes specific technologies within the amplify umbrella, but admits other ones are acceptable. From experience, AWS Amplify auth for

Any business/website owner who deals with customer support will like it (assuming it works well). My guess is the people on here poo pooing this idea are programmers who don't deal with customer support. Don't let their nega

I disagree. I don't think full access to messages is always necessary, but it can be in some circumstances and it should be up to the parent to decide how responsible their child is online and grant privacy accordingly. A 16 year old

Europe's healthcare isn't perfect like many Americans make it out to be. It has its own list of cons. Although it is very nice when you go to a Dr there and talking about money isn't even a thing. My wife is German. There ar

Why can't healthcare be fixed? I'm self employed, pay a crap ton of money for "good" insurance, and it's horrible. It's very difficult to find good doctors in network. Everything gets rejected from insurance

You should care about how you treat others. When a simple "hey, can you help me cancel my subscription?" would suffice, there's no reason to make threats and go to the extreme.

If you're dealing with a (normally small) company that generally takes care of their customers, an email like this as a conversation starter is just going to make the customer support reps lives miserable and make them not want to lift

LLMs have scraped the internet for their "knowledge". Asking it to go from copying/pasting a code snippet that's more or less found elsewhere on the internet, to architecting a unique system is a massive leap. More bre

The valuation cut happened regardless of raising this. They raised at a time when the valuation was down 50%. Raising it just made the valuation be an agreed upon, public number.
