It was sold with a subsidy in the uk in a weird way. Iirc you had to buy it from apple but o2 subsidised it as it they were the only ones with edge (so assumed they would also sell you a contract). Worked out £50-100 which was mad as o2 cou

It really depends on what your priorities are, its a key driver in defining the culture.. who do you listen to when considereing tranformation / change? You could have a suite i guess.. maybe look for overlap? Satisfaction? Vote = vote

This could still work, just not have data. Something can be functional but useless Edit, or rather.. functional but unused

Can you give an example of a function of a car that should need a network connection. E.g. navigation. Could still work but say cannot load maps. And it could let you download maps to a usb stick if it was actually decent.

Arent most people who chose to be in the public eye messed up? Comedians do a job that allows for more exposure of it. The broader brushes plausably cover the data for me.

I love HA and will persist with it. Main complaint is that it (and more so its docker containers) want access to the things that are not documented or configurable. E.g. it tries to contact DNS other than the configured one and i cannot fig

3g and wifi hotspot were another two big ones (edit: that made me stick with the somewhat ridiculous htc/windows i was using) iirc *edit: i say ridiculous as the iphone still made it look totally crap

Agreed. Software development and basically all efficiency / process improvements are not really top down at all. I just think that anything not top down doesnt play nice with shareholders. Also doesnt play nice with management that wan

There needs to be a stable narrative to shareholders, anything within your control should be managed. Moving all software development into some kind of skunkworks part of the business with 0 expected returns and only ever discussing roll ou

Some counter points.. 1. Do it open source. Upload raw footage and notes, let others edit add graphics etc. 2. Make less videos, there is clearly too much youtube content in general. Topic/points not raised or covered by you will be by

I hold out hope that when the tool is in a market that delivers actual value functionality and usability still tend to win out. I think that a lot of software is inherently low (or even negative) value and thats why shiny wins. Could easily

Mercedes-Benz Cars reports 520,100 global car sales during the third quarter of 2022.. according to some random site. I know that the vast majority of merc sales were not EVs but i think they are making enough to know hows its done. Vertica

I didnt say children were perfect or formed model societies, i said IP was nothing like human rights or democracy. When you experienced bullies etc. did you not have someone you could talk to that would agree the person was being shitty? th

Seems you are arguing a against something i didnt say? I guess you must believe you have some special ideas that you didnt get from anyone else at all, not based on any of you experiences and conversations with others that we all should pay

Imho Its a really good book, i think the first novel written by a non-noble, or something like that. Its over 100 years old but still very relevant today. Understanding how things have not changed in that time was powerful in helping me for

Human rights and democracy are nothing like IP. Dont be shitty to people and listen to their voice are thing that any group of children playing may come up with them selves. Those same children will copy each other and build on ideas each o

Ive only signed a couple of contacts ever, where the company really wanted it and were not forgetting. I may be wrong but the offer letter is enough to insist your first paycheck and from there on in its obvious the company thinks you are a

Google has gotten worse since it was created.. chat gpt is the first thing since that even has a hint of value. Ornganisations with more focus on making money than social responsibility are not a net positive. So i struggle to see any innov

The uks main export is corruption. It keeps its populus under educated and feeds them hate and tales of past glory. Its an embarrasment. The democracy is just another element of that fantasy world they project. With first past the post demo
