One of the best action movies of that era, the 1970s. The actors are all first rate. Here's the IMDB link: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0072251/ for those interested. I grew up on Walter Matthau movies. He

There have been many examples of non-corrupt officials being elected and then killed. The corruption isn't always "I want to get rich" type, sometimes it's "I don't want to be murdered in a horrific way" t

I see it as a game where investors get a better deal than the founders wanted. There is a lot of innuendo on the "we're not really interested, unless there's more upside for us" and the founders are then under pressure

Rode one for 5 years in my 20s and sold it after 2 close calls. Kawasaki Ninja 550 and then 750. The 750 had a scary amount of power. I consider myself lucky that I didn’t have a serious accident.

Not Canadian. Real question: is this the impact of having a normal human at the helm?

Following a route through a tunnel (less than a mile long), Google Maps on iOS zooms forward on the route many stops and many miles (5+ miles) in the tunnel. I had assumes Apple Maps was worse, but to my surprise it's quite good and d

You moved the goalpost. You said they are clean as could be. While temporary, sure, it was a horrific situation for the nearby residents.

My guess: technical debt makes fixing it impossible. I can’t believe many Microsoft developers didn’t try to fix it.

When I updated my Homepods to 26.5.2 I wasted 4 hours trying to get them back online. It was a complete nightmare. I never really figured out why it was so hard. I just kept getting errors and if I didn't keep trying they would have

Yeah, I miss him, too. I think about how he died alone. What a terrible thing.

Around the time of his ascent in comp.lang.lisp is when I stopped reading it. It was just flame wars, and I think he had a good bit of the responsibility. Seeing his dual personalities was the first time I experienced this. It didn't

So many people who have big personalities on the internet are like that. My example is Erik Naggum. I spent a lot of time with him and the gulf between his in-person and on-line personas was vast. Trivia: I took both the pics of him on hi

People like that are never friends. It’s a relationship of convenience and power exchange. The public riff was because Elon got upset over something and threw a tantrum. Some think the index deal was in exchange for Elon helping fund the mi
