I am wondering: Some engineers must have worked on this type of integration. Heck, some of them are probably also reading along here. What kind of narrative is being build around the feature to justify its implementation?

I think one of the core arguments for larger organisations is that incompetence can not ruin everything. Firebase is a good case study for this: They heavily argue using Firestore and server less functions. If you succeed solving your probl

This is a surprisingly good argument that me as a Danish person in a well functioning society with almost no corruption forgets. However, one could hope for a bit more ambition on these matters :)

I can recommend you to look into the Norwegian case and study general economics. There is a hole repository of knowledge you'd need in order to understand why taxation is important.

A shame they don't manage that inflow of money particularly well. Instead of giving tax cuts they should treat it like Norway treats income from oil and make a sovereign wealth fund – oh well...

This website seems to be quite honest about it though. This is magnitudes better than AI generated content that in covert ways promote affiliate links.

I never said it was a bad thing. I merely point out that is is ignorant to straight up believe that a "simple lock" is the solution without properly understanding the issue - just like you do.

A physical lock can get stuck. Especially on a moving trains with vibrations that could tense up the door. Weakened people, anxious people and other people with disabilities need to be able to lock and unlock the doors without getting stuck

I mechanical system probably would not satisfy the requirements of a train toilet in a public train - in particular that it needs to be used by disabled people. Unless you have been a part of the design process of train toilets (and please

My guess is that this type of round sliding door takes up much less space compared to solutions where you manually close the door. Unfortunately, manually round sliding doors can be very heavy to close. Especially for wheel chair users. My

Most systems can be hacked with force. You can also "hack" you way into a bank vault if you have 15 million tons of dynamite and an atomic bomb (not sure if there would be anything to come for in the vault at this point, though)

I would probably not use the word hacked here, more ruined – Yes, if we use things out of their intended use, block doors, forces switches even though locked, hold switches in intermediate states, it will ruin things. Maybe this is why toil

As with many other tech companies, Apple decide themselves when they think they satisfy the requirements of law. From now on it will be the courts work to figure out whether that is the case. Right now, we don't know for these changes.

I think society converges to you last proposal: People get local co-working spaces. That is also for the employees advantage. Your social circles are not bound to your employment anymore and will outlive new jobs. However, this will also co

This is why we can't have nice things – and also anti-capitalistic behavior. If the market see no need for commercial real-estate in cities, it ought to bankrupt. That is the free market. Forcing people to work from an office in order

by madsbuch 3y ago
I think this is the joker. If enough companies have vested interests in keeping real-estate prices high in the cities it will happen.

My impression was, that there was consensus that the bay area was build on public funds and institutions. My intuition is that it is only later, ie. within the past 30-40 years, that the US has adopted this antipathy towards governmental or

Ahh, I see. Maybe we should expand it then? Make a rule that all subscription services shall to use Apple's iStore – it is after all the simplest possible way. I have not cancelled anything on the Apple store, no. I have not yet had

That would be government micromanaging and considering individual methods of extraction - My personal belief is that government should be higher level. Ie. focus on the externalities. High taxes on fossil fuels would make not profitable to

Could be that they have not been entirely consolidated yet as they all previously were individual products. From a user perspective is appears like the users have been relatively loosely coupled.

While this is true, it is also true that the counter-party, the ones who sell games, use an equivalent wordplay, "buy", "own" to cause moral havoc. There is this thing called civil disobedience as a tool to keep fairness

I live in a country where more than 80% of my salary goes to redistribution. That redistribution also finances artists through grants, education. I do not believe in your rather narrow sighted way of thinking about how one pays for the arti
