I've gotten so used to right clicking and removing the offensive parts of websites in ublock origin that I always find it shocking just how bad the web is on a new machine. So many banners, so many subscription lists, so many useless s

These bizarre roundabout ways the NYT finds to worship corporations are starting to get creepy. Calling their work wondrous and speaking directly to people who "love" Google is just absurd. Just stop, don't worship an organiz

Oh no, trouble! That's the worst thing that could happen to someone! Getting in trouble! People should stand up for themselves more, you deserve to be paid for your work. The client is the only person who should be in trouble. Don&#x27

I have never used facebook or snapchat but this is what drove me off of linkedin too, it used to be 100% updates from people I knew, and somehow morphed into 99% "news feed" crap that I never want to see, ever. I don't care w

I don't even use tor but have to fill these stupid things out just because my ISP is stretching some IPv4 things a bit too far. Sure wish they would stop doing that, I have to fill out like 10 cloudflare or google captchas a day.

GE is currently unraveling because they hid their losses using creative accounting for 20+ years. Nobody will go to prison for this. If you're expecting much in the way of social responsibility from a large corporation I think you&#x27

Autocompletion for JS libs has been around for at least 12 years in various tools. It's not that hard of a problem to solve for a standard library if you follow a convention or two.

It's a fraction with a numerator and denominator. The demoniator can be 0.00001 sometimes. Any PE over 50 or so is effectively meaningless, everyone in finance knows to just ignore them at look at better valuation metrics. Also there&#

The fact that they are accelerating growth at $200B in sales is utterly insane. A few more years of this and they will just be able to buy the whole healthcare industry or basically whatever else they want to do. This kind of big growth is
