Tell me this, you discovered that your employer stores the user password in plain text. You propose change, but they refused; who do you report? In my experience, pretty much nothing happen until shit hits the bed, there's pretty much

Damn, I wished I had bought the mini-PC from them instead! I really don't understand the appeal of laptops, it only makes sense for the people that is really on the move like university students or blogger. Even then, they only need ch

There's even a HTTP status code for Payment Required. I wonder what happened to that. I think we need to go back to one time purchase model.

I think tech people overestimate how much the common folk cares about privacy. I think they "superficially" cares about them but they will never, ever give up convenience for it. So that does not surprise me. But it is interesting

What do you even use your phone for nowadays? I barely have any apps in them. I just use Twitch, Youtube, browsers (for Hackernews) and Reddit. All of which is big enough that they are prolly the overlords in said walled-garden. Are there a

Its not obvious that CURL would be as popular as it is if it started with a pay to use model. Maybe it never got the attention it has and never got popular?

I think that free services are a mistake. But for whatever reason people _really_ like it. Take Youtube. It offers a way to avoid all ads and yet people who spent hours upon hours every day either watching videos or listening to music with

NO thanks, I am not planning on using yet another service that is trying to psychologically milk every ounce of my attention. Reddit and Hackernews is bad enough. I am also not interested in looking at lewd teenagers dancing to the latest t

That means we need to stop using ((((free))))) services and start paying for them. Unless its literal charity, I have no reason to believe that any of these free company isn't trying to manipulating me in some other ways. One of these
