It’s quite a practical one where I come from, you can choose civil service instead of military service, where you’ll function as an underpaid slave to an organization that lacks incentive to develop your skills, pay a fair wage and focus on

And before you know it you have some bureaucrat deciding on how to live your life.. I’d rather not have any mandatory service

Oh this is also my metric for good movies and conversely I drive clear of high critics ratings with low audience ratings. Life's too serious already, I want to enjoy watching movies

There's a few reasons I can't do that and even though I've been using Linux since the mid 2000s, I don't want to spend my time tinkering. Apart from that, the bigger issue is that this is something that affects many user

Not macOS but my iPhone is struggling with space to update and there’s a ton of data I just can’t delete like data X stores somewhere or WhatsApp that duplicates photos in addition to a massive amount of system files that aren’t specified.

There’s other aspects making the job an overall better option at the moment. Policies like this aren’t good for productivity or retention though and I don’t see this being the long-term path for successful companies.

I head to the office to badge in every day, then I'm on Zoom calls, even with folks in the same office since there's often someone from a different office on the calls I'm on - of course because it helps in-person collaborati

That’s what you get when the population loves to be dependent on their government.

Yeah US really has the worst of it all, very high taxes and not much to show for it.

well you need to in a public system that's overloaded, so you lose both when paying in and again when you need to get treatment.

and it creates all the wrong incentives since they're overdoing it by quite a bit. it also forces people to less optimal decisions because they need to avoid taxes. at the end of the day, this makes them less resilient, since governme

But hey, they're super environmentally conscious at least by adding a few recycled cans to the new laptop you'll end up buying after the repair isn't worth it.

I don’t think this is the only reason. Government gains much more control when they can count on bad incentives to avoid people from being able to go through the due process. When the ISP (or bank) becomes not only the service provider but

That's pretty bad - I don't think it's a good government pattern to move policing to corporations or the population. It messes quite badly with established principles such as innocent until proven guilty because corporations

And yet they made it in policies all around the world with lots of people involved poking around in the other peoples noses and throats.

Yup making cycling at full cost the better option (as you describe tackling the issues around safety, theft) will have a real long-term impact, otherwise you might end up subsidizing a fun little toy that is used for a few weeks then goes b

Curious to learn more here: everyone was praising the M1 so much, but here’s a case that based on this wouldn’t fit the bill. also how high do you think the penalty for running an intel binary is?

Would be nice if they’d do the same for civ 6 - it’s burning hot on my MacBook (not sure it would solve the issue but worth a try)

What if you could only buy bundles of goods which are dynamically generated (and look like a basket to the user) and the seller just shows frequently purchased bundles or combines subsets of these? Curious where to draw the line.

Oh yeah fully agree some things are just silly and not having the option for rim brakes isn’t good either, if you live somewhere dry and safe you’re probably better off with nice rim brakes than cheap mechanical disk brakes that aren’t prop

Well you don’t need disk brakes until you do when the car pops up in front of you. There’s a bunch of people who would gain more from losing weight than whatever the marketing department of the bike company tells them, but it’s great to hav
