Good for you for recognizing what you need and shooting for it. Like you say in the article, you're one of the lucky who have taken that shot and had it work out for you, and I feel like I'm in a similar boat. Our first kid was bo

Further, there have been constant references, in articles from very reliable, reputable sources (see: CNN, NYT, FOX, etc.) since Russia's invasion into Ukraine about Russia's use of Telegram. I don't know that I could count t

This is my approach, as well. And if I absolutely had to use their web service? Well, keep the bank in my Chrome bookmarks bar, and only go there when I'm in Chrome. Head on back to Firefox when I'm done doing whatever it is t

I bet that's just plain not true.

But "detailed feedback" isn't "accurate feedback". I mean, it's pretty 'neat' that it can tell you which teeth have been 'correctly' cleaned based on the amount of time you spend in a specif

This feels akin to, "Global warming probably isn't real because today is colder than usual".

Then it's ignorance on the part of the customer - they're griping that, "This round fruit doesn't taste like this other round fruit," without realizing they're comparing apples and oranges. Just because the cus

Forgive my ignorance, but... what competition? As far as I'm aware, the only robotaxi company offering rides to the public at this time is Waymo.

Do they actually require it? I've noticed that Waze, for instance, will default to rerouting you if you don't respond to the prompt. Which is great - they seem to have taken into account the fact that folk might be driving, so let

Ooh! Since we're all doing anecdotes here, I know plenty of musicians that hate it!

I don't know why, but I find it fascinating that, here's this relatively brand new technology that we're still ironing out a shitload of kinks in, yet options A and B are "complaints". I dunno, if I step back and lo

Oh, I'm perfectly happy to agree that a lot of the bullshit starts with the "gregarious business types", but I'll never say that it automatically allows everyone else responsible for whatever bullshit to be completely

"I was just following orders."

So, put simply, your reply is essentially, "Yes".

... so, the day after you asked me why I thought you didn't read the FAQ, you did the exact thing the FAQ asks you not to do? Yeah, I don't feel so bad for assuming.

Huh? I think you're missing what I'm saying. You're saying Android Auto, especially in rentals, is essential for music and navigation, and that you don't know what you'd do without it. I'm saying, Android Auto

Why do you need to use your phone while driving? Set your nav at the start of your trip, start your music at the start of your drive. Skipping or anything else is easy to do when stopped at a light. My phone has always done just fine mounte

by jjulius 2y ago
But Android Auto isn't required to be able to do all of that.

A bit late, but... >Why do you think I didn't read the QA? Because the FAQ explicitly says not to complain about paywalls, and that's what your comment is doing. You also asked why HN allows them, and the FAQ, as I said, clearl

by jjulius 2y ago
It's been an hour since your first question. Instead of griping about an answer you waited an hour for, maybe go look at HN's FAQ (ya know, the one linked at the bottom of every page)? It addresses that directly, and includes a li

>I guess I should have explained more... Eh, I don't think you need to. The internet is crammed full of judgmental comments that people make based on a single sentence or two, often without any attempt at asking clarifying questions

I mean, in a sense, the entire internet is likely ephemeral.

I can only speak for myself. I want to have enough money to be able to comfortably provide for myself and my family, while also allowing us to be able to go and do the things we love. And - that's where we're at. We're firmly

Sure he is - he said "we all", but I count at least three of us in this specific chain who find it gross.

The operative word being "if" . I'm kinda with OP here either way.

There's "protecting your trademark from genuine copyright infringement" [nods], and "trying to silence legal parody via weak trademark arguments" [shakes head].

I did the same, I noticed myself getting more frustrated over an internet debate than I should be haha. Though, it's incredibly more humid here than it usually is, and now I feel gross and kinda regret it LOL. Much love, bud. Hope you
