Not a fan — it feels like an update just for its own sake, I struggle to think of anything that actually improved.

I live in the city so I've never owned a car, but would like to get one at some point. I'd want at least a plug-in hybrid, if not full electric, and absolutely no internet connectivity or tracking (or at least something that can b

Or maybe it's precisely because one will just watch hot girls dance if given the opportunity, that one would not want a social media feed that caters to your most base desires.

I'm aware that this is how the algorithm works, but the parent comment is not just explaining how it works, they gave suggestions based on things that "work for me". So I am specifically trying to sus out how common it is amo

Oh yea, thank god we left that world behind completely. It would be terrible like, some major news network was completely in the tank for one of our political parties, and a huge percentage of the population kept it on basically 24/7.

Part of it is almost certainly due to the FCC controlling licenses for what is broadcast over the air.

This is fascinating, I'm curious -- do you find yourself generally thinking in this way when using TikTok? Do you find that your peers that use TikTok do something similar? This is just completely foreign to how I consume media. The id

What makes you think pay is necessarily correlated to productivity? Taken to the extreme, literal theft can pay well, and produces absolutely nothing. Pay indicates the transfer of wealth -- it can be a heuristic for productivity, sure, but

I think part of the issue is that this is where the abstraction that we call "account ownership" starts to leak. You may correctly have access to an account through this scenario, but that does not make it your account. This bec

I don’t think you and the comment you are replying to are in conflict. Documenting and rolling it out piecemeal is the correct way to make a large change. I think the point is, either actually commit to doing that, or don’t introduce the ne

Some quick googling gives me the following figures: https://www.chopranocerino.com/blog/new-york-accident-statis... . > There were 5,809 crashes on the busy streets of Manhattan in 2023. The borough reported 34 death

I don't even understand the scenario you're talking about now -- are you referring to a delivery driver that would be driving their personal vehicle to work in the congestion zone? And then getting on a delivery truck, which would

Well yea, two major advantages of public transit over driving is that it is safer and less expensive. So if you are going to discount people with those opinions, of course the people remaining are more likely to align with you.

I truly feels safe on the NYC subway. You know what's more dangerous than riding the subway? Driving in a car.

Evidence that white people came up with Latinx? My sense was always that Hispanic leftists came up with it, and it was then amplified by their white leftist friends. Which is maybe a distinction without a difference, and I realize that you

Screw the company -- sure, maybe they can build a product with mediocre talent. But I don't want to work with mediocre devs, because they make my life harder. I'd much rather wait for someone I want to work with, than hire the fir

The economy is not a sport to be won. I think you are maybe prioritizing a some notion of fairness to those competing in the market, while to someone like Khan the thinking is more, how can we make the market function in a way that provides

Oh nice. I didn’t know about the Airplay 2 update, but I’ve been using an old Airport Express to airplay for this old audio receiver I have for ages. And I’ve got a spare I hold onto in case this one ever shits the bed. And while we’re on t

Don’t you need to be signed in to the same iCloud account on both your laptop and phone to use this feature? That would mean that in order to encounter this issue you already need to be using a work account on a personal device, or vice ver
