How many deadly chemicals are in an average home? Every time I fill up my car with gas, I buy enough to commit dozens of cases of arson. Intent matters and there's no reason to believe he intended to harm anyone. I believe it's a

It'd be such a mixed bag it wouldn't resemble anything 'fair'. I know some people who are against capital punishment even for obviously guilty serial killers. I know some people would think capital punishment is called f

I disagree. The cut should support the program itself and then further offset taxpayer expenses related to housing, feeding, and caring for the prisoner. I could even see a case for taking it as a way of ensuring it was saved and returned a

A lot of people don’t price shop, they have a default service they prefer and they just pay for it whatever the cost.

Why use the retail analogy? Seems like PC is the exact same comparison. There’s no need for an App Store at all. Any argument otherwise is silly after having such a long history of installing whatever I want whenever I want by developers wh

My guess is it depends on what you work with. I’ve been impressed by my ability to spin up nice looking websites and landing pages. Yet, I’ve tried to build a game and despite it appearing to work, it eventually has gotten confused about it

As self appointed arbiter, they actually aren’t too different from one another. Looks like a little bit prettier PIP effects, the multiple window navigation, are main visual differences that look better but don’t actually changes the experi

No idea if this is right but based on AI summary google results, annual operating costs for Youtube is ~$3B-5B and Netflix is ~$25B-30B. While YT probably spends most on CDN/bandwidth, they have a mostly free content cost which is by f

So this app that millions of people use, probably most of the ~1.4 billion iPhone users… instead of making some minor edits to the settings to make it better for a lot of people, the solution is we all just need to use the app the way you d

I believe there are Phone app alternatives, I just don’t trust them I feel like Apples M.O. on software is to build the lowest passable set of features in their apps, never enhance them, allow third parties to delve into the high functional

Whatever man, I'm not trying to shit on them like you want me to. I think adding this simple feature that is likely little more than a line or two of code is a night an day comparison to overhauling something like Xcode to meet your

Glad it works for you, I’m not allergic to the phone like seemingly everyone else so I strive to minimize phone tag BS and would rather answer the calls I get and filter out known spam, it’s not rocket science it’s probably only 2 lines of

There is a defined type “Unknown” which I think you’re describing but it’s Not exactly how the iOS feature works. It says let’s through those in your contacts or who you’ve had recent conversations with and Siri suggestions. It’s basically

They could also just easily enhance the feature right? It’s an extra if statement in the code. I get enough calls that it’s not practical to constantly edit a setting that’s like this. There’s nothing else in the settings app I change regul

It’s not that it got worse, this feature has just never been great. It just feels half baked , which I agree a lot of Apple software has been trending towards. That said, what has increased is the volume of spam calls. So the importance of

by conductr 1y ago
That’s too heavy handed for me. I get valid calls that I need to answer that aren’t in my contacts. The calls they flag as potential spam and telemarketers has been 100% accurate in my experience so i wish I could just silence those

by conductr 1y ago
It’s my biggest gripe. They can pretty accurately flag a number as Spam or Telemarketing but in the “Silence Unknown Callers” setting I can only silence every single unknown caller. I can’t silence every single number that’s not in my conta

Perhaps you need to re-read my comment. I'm saying they were exceptionally knowledgeable about things in general (STEM stuff). And, I'm saying WE are clueless as to how they knew a lot of things, they probably knew a lot more than

Debatable I suppose but I don't feel I do. That's what likely means - I feel I have enough suspicion, the coincidence is too strong, the stars too much in alignment... Hard to recreate but at the time I commented it was also the t

PHP is a fine language for a lot of cases. It's been a long time since it made sense to pay someone $150K to use it. Anonymous Indians is the AI he's been up against for a long time. Not to be racist of course, just pointing out

Ultimately it's a demand problem. If consumer demands more performant software, they would pay a premium for it. However, the opposite is more true. They would prefer an even less performant version if it came with a cheaper price tag.

IMO they just don't think of "initial launch speed" as a meaningful performance stat to base their entire tech stack upon. Most of these applications and even websites, once opened, are going to be used for several hours&#x2F

Leaning in on a two wheeler is rolling the frame to the left further. That same frame roll/tip on a trike causes the right wheel to leave the ground. In order to counter act that, and essentially prevent the frame from rolling/ti
