> Why have 1bn users and make $1 per user? Isn't it better if then have 200mn users and make $20 per user? In one case you make $1BN and in the other you make $4BN. So yes, the latter would objectively be better. :-)

There is no choice being taken away - you don't have a choice at this point - you must use "the" App Store whether you like it or not. Maybe the Apple App Store can get it's shit together and present a less hostile envir

It's not that my friend gave my info to someone else. My friend allowed the app to ask Facebook information about me. In the end, it's still Facebook who handed over my data. That my friend decided that was OK doesn't change

Does that ever work reliably? I've tried it on a number of different systems, and half the time it just does nothing, and when it does, the screen updating is quite choppy to the point of being unusable.

And what about these NPM modules is not auditable?

Melt your computer with compilation? A Node program? More to the point, did you audit Tensorflow? If no, then what's your point to begin with? If yes, what made you conclude that auditing Tensorflow is doable, but usually simple NPM mo

What does that prove? The six dependencies are probably an order of magnitude larger than the NPM ones. If anything, lots of small dependencies is more Unix-y than one big dependency.

No knowledgeable, expert Unix user I know brushes a Node program aside just because it is Node.

Sure, let's throw out rule of law, it's not like we can trust those judges, right?

The source is the POTUS, not some frat bro.

Why would the media need to "vigorously look into them" if judges already threw out the cases?

Like gab.ai and Parler? LOL.

In what world is a call for a "wild protest" not a call for violence?

Every single case got struck down by judges. People were pissed about a lack of election transparency that wasn't actually there. If the opinion of judges wasn't enough to convince them, what makes you think that of an auditor wou

Seems like the Whatsapp change doesn't really affect EU users.

I remember once writing an IRC script for Microsoft's IrcX implementation that unmasked a masked IP, literally one character at a time. Sometimes these things are by design. :-)

I never said the problem was in the EXT4 filesystem. The problem resulted in EXT4 corruption. Quite sure the Git corruption issue WSL2 has isn't in Git either.

Yes, let's pretend that the 4.19 EXT4 corruption issue in 2018 never happened.

So pretty much like your use of the term "propaganda"?

Not changed? I mean, those two screenshots kind of look similar, but are still totally different to me.

Super off-topic, for which I apologize, but being put on a pedestal means being admired. Probably the opposite of what you meant.

People trying to explain to you why you are wrong is not the same as people gaslighting you. Your judgment seems to be heavily influenced by how you feel about people partaking in the stock market. When you're done with the ad hominems

Are you saying American developers retire around 40-50yo?

If you pay someone to get a job done, that sounds like a contractor. If you pay someone for their hours worked, that's a salaried employee.

Coincidentally the Dutch word(s) for "brackets" translates to "square parenthesis".

There's legalising, and then there's decriminalising. For hard drugs, the latter sounds quite useful.

I was with you for the first two paragraphs, but I feel you invalidate everything you said by pretending separation of technologies and separation of concerns are equivalent. That reeks of dogmatism more than anything else.

Typescript is perfectly capable of telling you what the return type is without needing you to manually specify it.

> I'm not sure I follow. ES classes predate react significantly IIRC. Before React started supporting ES classes, they had React.createClass instead. I assume that is what the poster is referring to.
