"Due diligence". It used both as a tag for posts that try to give real analysis, as well as a meme to describe terrible or humorous logic for making trades (e.g. "DPZ DD: everyone at this party just agreed that Dominoes Pizza

Yeah, and there was also TSLA and AMD and MU and others that did great. The point is that they actually write out real strategies/positions as "DD", and you can make your own decisions.

I believe Brad Smith was chief of legal counsel before he was president. It would make sense for him to be very careful with his words here

Yeah, the phone app was crazy fast, and having moved from Mailbox, I loved the ability to easily archive from notifications. Now that's Gmail standard, though

I'd love to see the law that allows the FTC to demand broad sets of documents like this without a warrant or even a purported crime. Unfortunately, I'd imagine it exists, but that it basically says "the FTC can do whatever it

Outlook for Desktop has its quirks, but it's still extremely usable and (mostly) performant, especially compared to any of the web-based mail clients out there.

Weird for me to see all the love for Inbox in a thread about bloated webapps. I liked the Inbox UI a lot, but until it was spun down, I had an issue where each Inbox tab would eventually bloat up to 2-3 GBs. Considering I'd have 3 of

Yeah, I admit completely that I thought they were massively overpaying for Instagram at the time. I also shared the highest OP's sentiment that I didn't think FB was a good investment for the same reason (that people would migrate

Yes, but I think that misses the original point of OP's argument, which is that the variable cost nature of SaaS is beneficial to customers that don't want to or can't think about 3 vs 5 year lifecycles. And while you may sti

He's saying that when consumers routinely buy products that need to be serviced by first parties, over devices that can be opened and repaired by the end user, the market is voicing its opinion on whether reparability has value to them

If I wanted to get into these now, could you recommend any particular magazines (title and/or vintage) or time periods that are good starting points?

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised that the Winamp EQ is fully functioning.

I don't think it's any more complicated than that it's because they can't roll ads on videos that are downloaded. youtube-dl et al are niche enough that it doesn't put a real dent in their ad business, but making it

There may be some part of the law that prevents you from suing (IANAL), but if it wasn't disclosed before you purchased it, it make intuitive sense to me that you should have grounds to sue. I felt the same way about the whole Sonos re

The big CPU-bottlenecked esports game is CS:GO, or any other Valve / Source game. Even on an older CPU with mediocre single-threaded perf (i7-5820K), I can run the game fine on high settings, 1080p (100-250fps), but it occasionally d

It's interesting to me that what you're describing has basically been codified into the game design of "rouge lites" like Enter the Gungeon, Binding of Isaac, and now Hades...bunch more, Mana Quest, Spelunky...it's

Same, Devolver is phenomenal. Enter the Gungeon and Fall Guys are both smash hits too

Whenever you talk about startups with people outside the HN-like crowd, they always ask you about "your ideas", particularly if you assume you have all the funding lined up no problem. My go-to response is always "put Faceboo

First, just gotta say, I love Caddy, and thanks to you, mholt, and the rest of the team for everything you do. I'm actually a recent Caddy convert, and only picked it up after I saw the v2 GA announcement here on HN. I'm also not

Seagate mea culpa'd afterwards, but they still tried to pull the same crap with SMR until they were caught. There's an order or two of magnitude less data and benchmarks on the Toshiba drives, but I just bought Toshiba 6x6TBs for

I'm not an expert here, but I'm thinking about it like this: Creating a SHA-1 collision is doable, but it's still hard. If you want to serve someone a malicious piece of data, that's already one hash of the two colliding

Eh, it's less easy than it used to be if the application developer really doesn't want you to use a spoofed location. Pokemon GO and SafetyNet have been doing next-level in their ability to detect root. And GPS spoofing as a deb

As others have said, this article is mostly nasty rhetoric with very little substance. I'm surprised that the CAPTCHA isn't accessible, but that's about it. Websites opt-in to CloudFlare DDoS protection. If you want to be cra

Oh, I totally agree with you. I was just making an observation of the trend more than anything. I'm someone who does everything that I possibly can while offline, and I'm mostly in the camp that the "Save" button being a

My issue is largely the assumption that presence of DNA == person who committed the crime. We leave DNA all over the place. If I drop some hair at the scene of a crime 12 hours before it was committed, I could become the innocent sole suspe

Yeah, and upgrading to even 32 GBs is SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS. I get that it has to be soldered on or whatever, but I'm looking at faster RAM on Newegg right now, in brand names, single module DDR4, for ~115. I really wanna buy Apple stuff
