I certainly sympathize that folks love the hardware but more often as I work I want to simplify and just avoid accessories that require anything like this. Having said that very cool project / nice of those folks to do it.

I feel like smartphones are just evolutionary items now, there will be ups and downs in terms of upgrades and that's it. With google the added question though is, are they losing interest again?

I'm not convinced that people who want to work from home are magically motivated differently by work and to do work than others... They're human, better and worse, like everyone else.

Yeah it is not a remote good / office bad thing. I work remote when and how I want, it's great. But there's days and even weeks where "I just want to go in" and that's helpful with meetings, work, socialization

My government is just dumb as a box of rocks. It's like they heard of the ICC from a facebook meme and develop policy around that.

It is interesting how much clout Israel had, they put a lot of work into developing that, and they seemed to have just expended it all as far as US public opinion goes.

It feels like there's some legit bad practices that some folks have been hit with and legit complaints. But yes online there's a populist panic about it that seems disconnected and completely driving itself without basis in realit

How many phones have a standard audio jack now? I figured that had largely vanished for a while now.

For us the uptime issues have been annoying but not consequential enough to justify the work / risk of moving. I suspect even poor uptime for many services is a cosmetic problem for most users.

Not for me. Unicorn error.

And like Twitter most people will keep using it anyway?

I wish I could get a confidence number. Like 98%. Or when it comes back with 50% I know, let's talk about this a bit more maybe I add more context and such. Granted I don't think LLM word math does anything but mostly just output

Dwindling of news outsets / local news outlets has been pretty widely covered, as are the results: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31976955

I'm not sure Youtube doing fine while local news sources go under and such a is a positive.

Yeah this is a pain. Good people who do good work and aren't responsible for figuring out some micropayments ecosystem for the rest of us are reliant on advertising.

If they pay you 3k to install a battery, what’s the cost of the battery overall?

I’ve been laid off via remote meeting. The folks doing it were unhelpful (couldn’t answer typical questions) / they were some third party company hired to fire people. I didn’t like it… but not much would have made it “better”. The

I’ve found a disturbing pattern of “I’m being harassed” (without explanation of what exactly that means) as a sort of blanket statement to discount any kind of questions or scrutiny. The idea of someone having to explain what harassment is

Amen. And hey if social media is bad for everyone ... put that on social media companies. Not everyone else. Stupid cookie banners is my favorite example. I don't need to make a legal agreement with every website... if they wanted we

Cookie banners are a great example of regulation gone wrong. Me having to make a legal agreement with every website is absurd and totally predictable.

I don’t like Facebook either, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t relevant as a social network.

by duxup 2mo ago
> Facebook, as a platform, has long since lost the relevance as a social network I don’t understand how this is determined.

I really wasn't asking you about what you do. It's a larger question than that.

Considering we've seen that you can't prevent models from leaking out bad things, I don't think you really answered my question by making a list of bad things.
