You can be as angry as you want, but anger isn't going to do anything. They can "fuck around and find out" all they want because they know that they are so powerful they will never have to find out. They know they'll nev

I agree in theory that a company should not be the arbiter, but the reality is that the company is less dysfunctional than the government and less beholden to political powers. If we had a government that would regulate away dark patterns a

That's what I'm saying, one company took the stance that they want to be a regulator, while the other took the stance that they want minimal regulation. People prefer the regulated environment. Everyone wants the benefit of regula

This game is my favorite thing on the internet. It is an amazing cause and effect explanation of a complex concept brought to a simple level. In a world where it feels like tech is ripping apart our social fabric Nicky Case (ncase) has show

Every individual company has an incentive to be a bad actor when it comes to subscriptions (or dark patterns in general). Apple is a regulatory authority acting on this tragedy of the commons. Apple has created a situation where it has a ne

Just like in physics where you can choose a point of origin to make calculations easier. Choosing the frame from which to analyze the situation can often determine the conclusion with presuppositions encoded into the language of the frame.

I am probably speaking almost 100% from ignorance here, but I'll give it a crack. I imagine almost all federated protocols basically boil down to DNS. The records for DNS can be stored any way you want. What matters is that a domain na

Wages represent relative power and have very little to do with the labor involved. Unskilled labor has no power at all and that's why there is a minimum wage. If you want to increase your pay, then getting more power is the way to do i

This is probably as good of a data source as you can get, but it probably won't be timely: https://h1bdata.info/ Equifax also sells people's salary data as reported by ADP (I think), but I'm not sure what it

The 5g modem itself is expensive due to (I assume) licensing. Just look at the difference between a 5g iPad or not: $200 and the watch which is $100. It's not just the part itself but its context. You are asking for engineering to spen

Y2K was at it's core an infrastructure maintenance problem. A one time investment needed to "reinforce" code to be resilient to a disaster we knew would be coming. For the Y2K bug, we had a pretty good grasp of what we knew,

Drone tech, satellite tech, phone applications for war (I assume), and bringing war to social media are actively changing the state of warfare as we know it in Ukraine. The idea that violence isn't necessarily bad and can also be a for
