The most realistic character would be the one that is bitter having watched all his hacker friends make boat loads of money, but works some random software engineering job for an unimpressive salary while slowly drinking/eating themsel

It's not that they are out of fashion, it's that giphy is not the only kid on the block as alluded to at the end of the article. Every mobile keyboard has a little gif button that summons gifs on demand.

Sounds like you run a large operation. Would you be comfortable sharing what country you're in?

I've used one for a while and it's amazing. You can taste the difference. You can put water with food coloring/dye through the filter and it will come out clear and delicious. Brita pales in comparison. Granted, I was not awa

"Bluechip" NFTs like CryptoKitties become commodities that people trade day in and day out.

Not the person you're replying to, but for a couple hundred bucks you can get a Berkey filter that very effectively removes things like flouride, etc.

I wonder if it's still faster than sqlite in 2022.

I wonder, does this still exist in other countries/markets?

Virustotal is the gold standard (and a part of google now) - this still looks like a fun project to have put together as a POC, though I doubt it can be monetized in it's current state.

Because he actually took the job seriously.

I'm not a frontend person and I'm attracted to simplicity. I can certainly believe this is not good, but do you know if there are good minimal alternatives like this? Bootstrap seems a bit complex for basic stuff.

I think a good introduction to his prose is Post Office, it's an easy read. If you like that, then you can move on to his other novels like Ham On Rye, which feels more real and dark, especially when he talks about his childhood. My fa

Funny, I don't find his writing sloppy and unconsidered at all. His sense of style is so clearly defined, that I think I can come across a poem or story of his that I hadn't read before and recognize it as his work.

Generally I agree with the sentiment, but at the same time this is impactful, because this is a person that has been in the public eye for people's entire lives, so it presents as somewhat of a shock. It's a reminder that the only

I love how the media re-branded "doing your job" to "quiet quitting". What the heck is going on? When I first saw the term "quiet quitting", I assumed it meant literally that, Office Space style, but what it ac

IMO, having such an interface completely eliminates the need for us to have the hardware in the first place. I don't think of a brain computer face as a one way device, but two way. The reason we have a physical phone is because you ne

I actually disagree. I think in 100 years we will have at least a prototype for a WIRELESS brain computer interface. The form factor like the laptop and mobile phone are super limiting. The "internet" will come out of these device

All social media has controversial content. In the advertising world "user generated content" is close to the bottom of the barrel anyway... yet, it's the main revenue driver for companies like Facebook.

I don't think that's it at all. Advertisers can target subreddits / content on reddit.

What about significant positive effects?

by j0hnyl 4y ago
Hard to imagine that happening for a while if at all. At that point it just becomes part of finance though. Like, it's already very difficult if not impossible to opt out of credit cards for example.

Why would anyone be forced to use Crypto? If the government forces you to use it, then at that point it's no longer crypto, it's fiat.

Do you only sell them on the website or local consignment shops too?

In my domain and maybe this is not the norm, the consumers of "tooling" are usually other engineers.

I don't mind people being hard on Python, but the idea of Java over Python "in a pinch" is lost on me, but what do I know...

Negging your readers might not be the best way to get your point across...

"In a pinch, even Java provides a better alternative as you have the ability to build all-in-one-jar files that contain all the dependencies. Not fashionable, but objectively a far less brittle option." Really? In a pinch, use a l

I think maybe it works due to cultural reasons - Japanese seem quite honest.

So, someone hired you to try and monetize their inbound spam? How lucrative is that?
