The one that drives me crazy are websites that say they only support safari on iOS... It’s all safari under the hood.

At that price point what is it better than? A human can carry significantly more for a fraction of the price. 31 lbs is essentially nothing.

I remember that being my favorite search engine over 20 years ago. . . Crazy it's still around.

I’ve seen customers get denied by their auto insurance and 2 credit cards. Just because a credit card provides coverages it doesn’t mean it covers everything. Insurance is complicated and you should never assume you are covered.

I never said the net outcome wasn’t favorable. I said certain categories underperform other categories by a wide margin. You are assuming the goal is to maximize RPU when he actual goal is to maximize the delta between purchase price and re

Also, car manufacturers force large rental companies to buy certain mixes of cars. For example crew cab pickup trucks are a horrible category for rental companies but they still purchase them every year. To get the insanely low prices they

Working in this industry I can tell you that it can be in your interest to buy either damage waivers or supplemental insurance. Especially when you are renting larger vehicles. People often don’t realize how much it costs to repair a panel

Probably a little of both. I doubt the souped up cars racing each other are just acting out due to being stir crazy.

If most are bad at migrations then what should most do?

If you run on app engine flexible it shouldn’t be hard to migrate.

That's a lot of hot takes in one go. How much of that do you actually believe?

It may be optional but it seems to be the standard rather than the exception. I just don't see people really caring about their privacy. When given the choice between convenience and privacy people generally choose convenience. As some

Why would it not be made? Each person has agency in the decision to share their data. If it is indeed _my_ data then _I_ should be able to choose to sell it or move on. Forcing a companies hand, I predict, will just move more content behind

They could, I just don't personally see that as a clear cut win for the web.

The law in question is the GPDR. I’m not sure what your point is. If you change the law to allow people to choose to consent or not see content then it is no longer illegal. If we can’t have that discussion because it is currently illegal t

In theory, in practice users consent and move on. You’ve just added an annoying extra step on every site. Victory?

It's only analogous because this law makes that act illegal if you change the law then it's magically legal again.

"All regulation against corporations limits the corporation’s rights, but it’s necessary as it keeps them in check." Your original statement made it sound as if you were saying all regulation is justified. Thanks for the primer on

Sure, I'm not a psychopath, I understand the usefulness of laws. I just don't think the restriction in question is reasonable. To me, it seems like a choice an individual should make for themselves: access or data?

My point was about meeting requirements to gain access. Not about following the law. However, would it be against the law to have a club that is only open to ex-cons? I understand that the GDPR makes it illegal to make it necessary to conse

by cglace 6y ago
So all regulations are necessary because it keeps corporations in check? I guess that means there is no room for bad regulations with that tautological definition.

Let's say I have a club, you have to do certain things to gain membership to my club if you don't do those things you can't get in. How is that any different? The club should be able to set the rules as it deems fit.

As a person that does not support Trump I find it hard to believe that I am creating deceptive propaganda. However, I will fix it for you, zero percent of the US supports Trump or believes he has made the country a better place. There is a

I don’t know why you are trying to convince me or why you think providing figures will change the fact that a large portion of the country feels one way. You can’t argue your way out of that fact.

Great, and how are they going to vote in the upcoming elections? The parent was not discussing Trump's popularity wrt to the world because frankly, that doesn't matter, what matters is changing public opinion within the US.

Good luck with that. There is a very large portion of the population that believe this administration has left the world better than they found it.
