I have always gravitated towards a market model. Force police, like doctors, to have malpractice insurance. Let for-profit insurance companies model what that risk looks like. Now cities have to make a financial decision when hiring cops th

Yes I understood but let me make my position clearer. Call it unique but it’s because they are marketing it on a consumption model where they can obfuscate the cost of compute. The upcharge for SSO is still very healthy margins hence my poi

Gee thanks for pointing that out!

Hah I missed the part you said Google. You figure a thread about Siri was talking iOS. Of course the configuration path is the same in android as ios!

I was looking myself and it appears only certain regions (Japan) have that option.

I am not convinced this is the case. I know this is the popular anti-AI narrative but most enterprise users are paying for it at token rates and I have yet to see any proof that on demand is being subsidized

Not sure why this is an unpopular opinion. It is one of the most ridiculous statements to say you are from a homogenous country and have no racial issues. I guarantee they exist but you live in a homogenous country.

You have not really hit on any of the issues.

Edit not sure why I typed hated. I mean always upcharged.

I am saying this quite common and part of it is simply an enterprise tax. Yes vercel breaks it up into a separate charge but that’s their playbook and maybe they can better represent their costs and margin internally. I was only pointing ou

Not defending the practice but it’s really the enterprise tax.

It’s like communism or anarchocapitlism, it works on paper but hard in practice. Preventing voting is a nice idea but really hard to get right because humans are messy animals. The world is messy and one of the reasons I am such a believer

Didn’t a site like this just show up a few weeks back on here? What is the interest in government auction sites?

You could replace skin color with any attribute and it will probably happen. You can see it play out across the world time and time again, in any type of downturn or bad luck people on average find it easier to blame another group than them

It’s a weird time. You would think folks would be excited about technology but we have this weird even in America where everything is scary. Facebook brainrot is no issue but F those EVs.

Lots of folks were making speculations. It got fixed, in a timely manner and appears to be a lack of escalation authority within support.

Does not even need to be AI. Could just be a bad support route in their decision tree. Lots of over reaction here.

You didn’t bring down GitHub. You brought down the thread. There’s a difference between criticizing a company and just swapping names for insults. The former can be useful, the latter just turns the discussion into noise. If you’ve got a po

Unclear why this is so shocking. Sounds like they have been making migrations on their underlying systems and this better aligns with the cost to run. I would be curious how many are using their code review system.

Which is fair but inversely we do many builds throughout the day most business days and have not had an impact where we noticed it. Could also be that we deploy often and frequently and have setup our builds to be as quick as possible so an

For all the hate it gets, I use them regularly with little to no complaints. I have always found it as a pretty nice to have feature if I am already using GitHub. It’s far from perfect or robust but I can get a lot of use out of it with low

It’s confusing (at least for me) because the project covers a number of things including what you are mentioning.

No expert but I always got the impression Oman was a neutral party. They help run the Hormuz with Iran but largely neutral in world politics.

Why do folks like yourself jump to such dull and cheap comments. > “Painting is no big deal, it’s just a bunch of colors” I don’t think anyone was saying such a thing. The original post stated that engineers of yesterday were so much bet

How did we jump to cigarettes? I don’t think any of the original articles complaints are wrong but I don’t agree with the thesis. They are one of the best selling device manufacturers because the product and ecosystem is so good. My point w

I think the criticisms are valid but I also still find that Apple has created one of the best ecosystems in the marketplace. It’s hard for me to pin any of the individual complaints on a broad failing of Tim Cook.

Why are you comparing Apple to software companies. Apples to oranges.
