Maybe I'm overly pessimistic, but isn't it quite likely that it will primarily be used as leverage against suppliers? If the suppliers themselves enter every piece of information into what is essentially a living contract, any err

Read in another HN comment just the other day that the slowness was because they used some obsolete only-in-chrome shadow DOM API which "polyfilled" on all other browser, which if true sounds exactly like pulling a Microsoft. I ha

A rather odd one is the Swedish tax authority, they generally have good to excellent support within the legal framework they have to work with. They are better than almost any company I've had to deal with, and usually whomever you get

Researchers are usually bright people, but funding is often decided by entirely different people, and policy. But anyway ... Vaccines, as well as antibiotics are hard to find/make and eithee have high price sensitivity, nobody will pay

Isn't it rathwr unlikely they dictated anything to Apple, as Apple isn't, and wasn't exactly at the brink of bankruptcy. They could have chosen a different path. It is probably more likely, looking at the history of a couple

Isn't that a bit odd, your stack trace there in the article? Usually the stack trace when a NoClassDefFoundError is thrown contains a "Cause" clearly showing the name of the class loader that was supposed to know about the cl

If you are saying that the issue apperently most contentious to you is a hypothesis, why did you call the entire article opinion to begin with? Seems contradictory to me. As far as I can tell, she's really only saying is that we would

It's quite simple really, not all children are the same. I would be the first to agree that investing the time and having a good attitude would probably be quite enough for many families. But I feel that it would be quite unfair to ma
