Bs. The speed difference in real life was never that much.

Apple is making lots of money by selling iPhones and services already (iCloud un such). Charging 30% is outrageous. The other problem is that Apple won't allow anyone to buy an app store for the iPhone.

The difference here is that Microsoft/Sony loose money to sell as many machines as possible to generate a viable market for the gaming studios (and obviously for them). On an iPhone, apple has made plenty of money already. In any case,

So if I use windows does that mean that every app dev must pay 30% to Ms because you can argue that I am using their apps thanks to Microsoft. And hey, why don't we also pay Intel or and, who did the processors?

I don´t know how is it in all of the world, but in many countries/cities, the problem with Taxi drivers is that there is no control, they treat you like shit, there is no one else to complain, they take you to the longest route, many h

I don't get it. The ebook is 34 USD. At amazon you get the printed version for 31 USD. What is the logic there?

But in my experience I have never seen cases where you really save money. The outsourced dev charges less, yes, but the outsourcing company needs to make money. But let's say what was 10 an hour, now it is 5. In my experience is that w

I believe if anything this pandemic has shown, is that remote work is much worse than in office work. Boring Video meetings. Lack of interactions. It takes two or three times to do the same things remotely in my line of work (Product Manage

I cannot talk about Aliexpress because I never ordered there (seems absolutely chaotic for my taste), but rarely do I see better prices on ebay or other merchants. It happens, but it is very rare for my use case. In contrast, Amazon's
