Follow up to my comment based on today's court hearing: See: https://twitter.com/LiveLawIndia/status/1330743572157534210 The prosecution made a few decent points - I suspect he may have gotten carried away in

I can no longer edit my comment - it is intended to say "alleged scam". Posting due to chilling effect.

Big tech has basically monopolized all the attention and all the talent. Some of the smartest people of our time are working on ad delivery platforms, aka propaganda machines. Not only that, in this case it looks like a big advertiser can j

So hypothetically you are suggesting that someone like Nigel Farage or the Brexit Party could just file DMCA requests against any YouTuber who has made a video critical of them, and YouTube and Reddit would have to suspend the accounts beca

Pathetic. All this dude did was show users their fake ads and fake reviews. He's also showcased reviews where the instructors don't seem to know much about how the internet works. Now the legal system is being used to maliciously

I really like typescript and I have used it fondly when developing Angular projects because it is one of the defaults. In most other frameworks there seem to be some arcane incantations required to include typescript into the build system.

To be fair the title of this website is a collection of unmitigated pedantry, so in this particular case I can sort of understand why such things are explored and discussed. On this topic in general though, as a "POC" (as I am tol

Yeah I suppose if you use a server-side framework you can use a templating engine to create partials for your components and have a single source of truth that way. I was curious to know if there was a way to do it with just Vue + some buil

Can you help me understand the architecture a bit better? I have some reservations. If you extract components then you require JS (low lighthouse score, lots of JS processing on slow devices, likely SEO problems) or SSR to render the page a

I feel like if one can hold out another year or two for the second iteration that will probably be a better long-term bet. My current macbook is about 6 years old.

Is there an open-source or paid SDK/API that I can use to create a group voice chat mobile app with "live" transcription? Or something that can plug-in to a system like this? I looked at Twilio but they seem to only offer a m

It boils down to a certain competitive spirit that exists to varying degrees in different people, which is what drives them to push the limits of their field. If something wasn't good enough for Steve Jobs, he didn't accept it. Mi

This requires your imagined scenario to be true. It also requires that the selective release of information is weighed in the opposite direction to what you are seeing. In specific terms this is equivalent to saying "Russians showed us

There seems to be a premise in the USA that if Russia has a hand in true information coming to light, the bigger story is about Russia's hand in it, and not the information itself. This narrative has been seen a lot, and often times it
