It would be interesting if they got a hold of wages across Netflix and then made a report on that. How much is the median writer for Netflix original shows paid, how much is the median actor for Netflix original shows paid, etc. Though $900

There's obviously a massive glaring difference: communication. Two apps on your phone won't be sharing data other than in awkward ways, it's designed to be this way and I'm not mad. But your bank app won't be sendin

They're cool but they're never taking over the planet. Suckers. On a more serious note, it's very interesting to see the different mechanisms that nature develops for adaptability. It seems like there's a trade off here

I appreciate when governments make an effort to build proper style guidelines for their national brand. I think the UK has done a great job with their government website and their digital platforms. So it's good to see more governments

I appreciate this move from Meta. It's clear that openAI is trying to do regulatory capture so they can stay ahead of the game. I think open source is the way to go, and it's what a lot of people in safety of AI talk about. We nee

I thought twitter was actually not making enough money to cover its costs? Let's see how sustained these earnings are. If you're not making enough money through advertisement to cover your own bills, I guess they believe splitting

I'm pretty excited for foldables. They're just not there yet in terms of price, but it's clear that this is becoming a product line for a lot of companies; and it'll get cheaper and cheaper. Android manufacturers should

You don't wanna replicate the movie. I imagine if you add colours, for example, you could make your own interpretation of the colour palette and so something really amazing but as a distance matrix... you'd be way off. I think jus

Yep! You need a kind of review process and some incentives. Not that difficult to implement. You give several people the same frame to draw, then you just have everyone pick their favourite. The one with the least votes can be temporarily s

The android app is pretty good, but no offline support really limits its usability. Imo, every mobile app should have some kind of offline support. The fact that I'm unable to access my notes if I'm not online means anything I req

I wonder how representative you are of the average consumer though? I imagine their pricing structure works well to upsell people on average, which is why they have maintained it for long. Also, why would someone like you even go to the sto

They could be owned by the State as well. And I would say, they could easily be owned by readers in a consumer-coop model. These work for many other industries, I don't see why it wouldn't work for newspapers. I think most importa

Really? Huh. I mean the ROG Ally can do 120hz. For me personally, 40fps/40Hz seems like the sweetspot for these consoles. Ideally on a decent (1080p) resolution which at that screen size looks phenomenal. But I think ultimately we both

I have a Steam Deck. The battery life is good on old games, that's true. But you can comfortably play a lot of modern games at 40hz/40fps mode; but just not for a very long while. It feels bad knowing you can run them decently b

These handhelds are great, but the battery life is just not there. They need to be able to sustain ~4 hours of continued gameplay. As they are, they can do maybe 1-1.5 hours. It's simply not enough. Still great machines and I believe t

It's always crazy to me to see whole articles written out of a single tweet from a famous person. Is this worth talking about? I don't think so. I think the proof is in the pudding.

I had no idea about this issue. It seems pretty bad. I love the idea of tablet like foldables but they're still very much in an experiment phase. I think they won't be mainstream for a few years still. I mean, it's not a huge

Breaking networks effects is extremely tough. It's not enough that you move, but all your social circle needs to move for it to be worth it... and for them to move all their social circle needs to move as well. In all honesty, I think

I do see people in concerts wearing airpods pro. I would assume they use them with transparency mode to lower the environment sound so they don't go deaf. I mean, I have a pair of musician earplugs for that reason.

This is a big problem in the origami community. The forums have died and have been replaced with discord, it's become pretty inaccessible so I imagine it's the same for other niche hobbies.

There's other arguments in favour of government programs though. For one, a lot of the wealth that's generated in a country is due to the collective historical effort of the people which is summed up in the state (for americans, t

This is a very utilitarian way of viewing the world. Under other philosophical frameworks, intentions do matter, not just consequences. For a deontologist, for example, thinking of Kant's categorical imperative. My point here is that &
