Engineers designed and built that plane. The plane is fundamentally flawed. The engineer in charge absolutely deserves to be let go. Frankly, it should have happened after the first 2 crashes made it clear that there were problems with the

My experience was similar at a medium size business. We had reusable keys that we used as needed. Once a year, we would run their audit tool and pay the difference. I never got the impression they cared where the keys came from. We knew exa

+1 for Logseq. I have tried so many note taking and organization apps. Logseq had a little bit of a learning curve, but it works better than anything else for my ADHD brain. With other apps, I would still spend so much time thinking about

It's silly that you can't even see what these things can do without having a $20/mo subscription. They have one line descriptions for each one, but it doesn't really tell you what it actually does. They need to add a fea

While I agree that people deserve an opportunity to move on from their past, I still want to know who I’m employing. It’s not just about crimes that may be relevant to the role. Who decides what’s relevant? A crime completely unrelated to m

Tesla is the only one I’ve ever had that occasionally crashes, but it’s still so much better than the other stuff out there. I have had decent experiences with Toyota and Ford. Although their systems are boring and old, they work reliably a

I have a Silverado and the software is absolute shit. It’s like it has a virus. The media stuff is so wonky. It randomly plays Bluetooth stuff on my phone. It doesn’t even reliably play what I was actually listening to. Just random crap fro

That’s disgusting. It’s not right to call them journalists. They are no different than the scum who goes around doxxing people.

I wonder if behind the scenes this has anything to do with Elon’s Starlink shenanigans in Ukraine. He interfered with their military operations after a meeting with Putin and then pulled that nonsense where he basically extorted the U.S. go

Exactly. Even if there were a bunch of crappy middle managers and lazy people, someone put them there and was responsible for them. The buck has to stop somewhere. This guy either doesn’t know what’s happening in his company or he’s as unqu

I don’t understand the appeal of Spotify. Back when it first came to the U.S. there were a few competing services and I thought Spotify was towards the bottom in terms of recommendations. Pandora was so much better, although all they had wa

I don't think so. These people are at a company that may not exist anymore next week. It's right around the holidays. It's a horrible time to have uncertainty about employment. I would assume most of them would find it reassu

100%. This doesn’t get fixed otherwise. It’s predatory. It’s basically the storage unit model applied to housing.

Because they calculate they are more willing to do that than the tenant is willing to move. It only costs them a month or two of the difference in rent they are going to charge a new tenant. They still make thousands more in the end. Meanwh

I had the same experience with amphetamine. I think it's an ADHD thing. My doctor started me off on a low dose and I was falling asleep when I took it. We bumped it up and I'm working harder to stick to a good sleep schedule. It&#

The irony is that they do care about what the user prefers. All this telemetry and the surveys are to better understand user habits and preferences so they can make their software better. Unfortunately, they are so out of touch and ignorant

Amazon became a giant because they were genuinely good before they became what they are now. For a long time, they offered a superior online shopping experience. The prices were good, the processing time was faster than anyone else, the shi

I don't recall any of this short-sighted, anti-consumer nonsense when I earned my MBA. I do remember a focus on ethics and doing right by the consumer. There was a lot of corporate social responsibility stuff that I thought was going t

All that stuff is shared directly with Mozilla. The Chrome stuff is shared with everyone with the money to pay for it.

Except for the motors and batteries, Tesla cars are awful. I would never buy another one or recommend it to others. The only car that was put together worse than this one is a Mitsubishi I had back in the 90's. Elon Musk is a con man.

They messed up and either ran out of disk space or had an array fail. Everything in that statement reads like they are trying to frame a critical production failure as a glitch that occurred during maintenance. This wasn’t about a routine s

It's disappointing that there's no Linux version. It's a little silly for them to build on top of a multi-platform browser and then eliminate support for 2 major platforms. I had been looking forward to trying this.

Oh, I agree. It's why I put up with NixOS. I love what I can accomplish with it. It's a tool for making your own distro. It basically makes the impossible possible. What I'd like to see now is to make the difficult things eas

NixOS is awful except for everything else out there. The learning curve is... steep. The documentation sucks. You have to learn a new OS because a lot of your prior Linux knowledge no longer applies. But, man, it's so slick when you ge

Agreed. It virtually guarantees I won’t buy another Tesla. My other car is a Ford (ICE) and I like it. This makes a Ford EV an easy decision.

I'm not a Windows user anymore, but I think you're selling them short. Windows has been a very good OS for 20+ years. If you think it's bad now, you should have seen it during the Windows 95/98/ME era. Around 2000-i

Probably more to do with the opinions and preferences of those admins than anything to do with the distro. Sounds like they didn't know how to manage it, lacked the same visibility into it that they had with Windows or just didn't
