Well, one benefit would be a relaxation of constraints on filesystems. This might be worth performance loss.

Can’t you interface natively with objective-c objects from swift? It’s a much smaller ABI to target than the C++ one and most languages I know have some decent bindings.

Pretty sure state intelligence has been doing this for decades, and we all know the laser-off-the-window pane trick by now. I’m much less worried about spies than I am about the powers directly around me, namely my own state and the large c

While there’s a grain of truth to this, you’re neglecting the simultaneous experience of self consciousness of this at the same time. I believe there’s a David Foster Wallace short story about this somewhere in Brief Interviews with Hideous

You mean like notice from the IRS of a failed payment like I just got through the mail? Court summons? Junk like that?

You forgot the firmware of the headphones!

How can you trust the hardware is not recording? I’ve never felt better about connecting “dumb” headphones.

Who orders seeds via amazon? It doesn’t strike me as likely to lead to success.

I only see “white supremacy” when I look at a Karen. I don’t see any people named “karen” being conflated with a “karen”. I would only use “Karen” on a woman if I saw her manipulating some authority to her ends. Personally, I would only be

Well, one example is a notification that fires on the client’s timezone rather than UTC.

Well, we don’t do much to regulate the most common date rape drug, Alcohol, so it’s not clear why we need to do so much to prevent adults from consensually taking it.

Big government is only ok if it’s punitive, apparently.

Honestly all I see is upside for the business.

I've just given up on Bluetooth for rapid device switching. It's too time consuming to be figuring out which device your headphones are attached to & disconnecting/reconnecting to resolve, especially e.g. when someone cal

I'm rather attached to things like time zones.

How often do you need to use a join from the client? It's not like "rest" has built-in joins either.

How's the documentation for your rest endpoints?

Does it? Not from my experience on either side of the transaction.... in my eyes all of the “innovation” facebook has produced (along with every other large tech company) has been straightforward, by the book scaling of extant business proc

Huh apparently all I need to do to justify literally any business model a) have a small mountain of cash and b) make it convenient. People will just give up on trying to imagine a way to do things better. Why bother when I already do things

Unless something drastically changes with trade agreements we’re likely well beyond being able to regulate these multinationals in any broadly useful way.

I don’t know of many industry veterans who look lovingly over that fence. My impression is that they use an “overwork the eager graduate” style of hiring, like many in the top ten tech companies do. Meanwhile the careerists at Microsoft see

Do you have an example of how a web app has produced a product competitive in quality and functionality with a native offering? Office 360 is the only example I can think of. Everything else is niche SaaS (or ad-paid) without clearly establ

Shahid Buttar, running against Nancy Pelosi, has a strong record of anti-surveillance activism and seems willing to run on it. Anti-surveillance politicians are out there, if rare.
