Just a little sad to see how much value they put into the iPhone and services while iPad and Mac software is lacking. Obviously, they're making money, and that's their goal. However, I think sales could be boosted for the iPads an

I use Firefox every day, I like Rust, and I like what Mozilla stands for. The hard thing is... I'm pretty sure a significant portion of their revenue comes from Google, which is ironic. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/

This is a great comment. Look at success stories, especially recent ones, and learn from them!

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Instagram is owned by Facebook... why would they do anything for the sole benefit of users?

Thank you for sharing this. My wife and I got to see the ISS fly across the sky, and we knew exactly where and when to look. I really appreciate it!

You're right. But, Google does understand that their users don't want to be tracked. They just don't care. The real solution is to "Get off Google". If everyone reading this did that, would it impact them? N

I don't think Google has its customers best interest in any of this. They try to make it seem like it at face value, but to deliver real privacy, they wouldn't get the data they need for their own business. An example from the art

Why was this downvoted? Save the fact that you just shouldn't use Facebook at all, I think this is great comment. It actually references text from the post, unlike many of the other comments. It must have been a few Google bots... I es

This is a great idea, but where is the privacy? The privacy policy literally says that your personal information will be shared with Google & other third party apps. [0] This is a great way to collect data on what people do every day. [

why was this downvoted? I think that privacy, to a point, should be a basic human right as well.

No matter what, it's an opt-out setting that can only be disabled with: "workbench.settings.enableNaturalLanguageSearch": false That's unacceptable.

I definitely agree with your statement about how vehicle-centric cities are; I wish it was different in real life! It would be cool for Google to do that, if they open sourced it and didn't put any tracking software in...

Well, I'm glad the response has been so positive! And I'm always afraid of that too, but getting something done and out there is better than not doing anything. Plus, I think most people are supportive, and if there is any constru

If you wrote a book explaining how to do this, teaching the concepts, etc... I think a lot of people (or at least me) would be very interested!!! Great job

I like the idea.... but this doesn't make sense. I'm all for not using Google Analytics- I don't use it on my site. But why would you then use Google Sheets to hold the info? That's ridiculous. That's like telling p

thanks for the quick replies! And just to clarify... if the program lasts 5 months, and they drop out of the program 2.5 months in (and they would have received $5k so far), what would they would owe..?

Three questions I haven't seen answered yet... 1) What if you make $40k even? Is the 15% adjusted based on your salary? 2) What happens if you lose your job 1 year in? You've paid back half your debt... what about the other half?

Thanks for the article! Unfortunately I don’t think Medium is an “open” platform, there are paywalls there too. The other thing I think we need to be careful about is having a “federated” source for the paywalls. To me, this is a scary idea
