I mean it's not like their reasoning is secret.... you're obviously free to respond to the substance of their analysis if you disagree.

No shit. How can anyone in the US believe otherwise?

I agree with your last statement that dirtbags deserve rights too; however, companies should not have rights on par with civilian rights at all. Hell, I'd like to write up a TOS they implicitly sign by taking on my business. ...while w

I don't know anything about cars, but do those old BMWs have software that requires maintenance? Tesla likely will.

I don't see why Apple can't go for both high software AND hardware margins. These don't seem like contradictory goals.

I'm certain this is symptomatic of being a dick even in Germany.

There are a bunch of different formulations of "eternal recurrence"; some are merely similar, not identical. Not all require literal repetition, either, and the recurrence is purely semantic. Literal exact recurrence is certainly

I don't use a case. If it were meant to be used with a case it would come built in. Iphones could easily double in thickness without making it harder to slip into a (male) pocket.

TBH I'd trust a describable model much more than "cutting edge AI"

While it's nice that your needs are met, others do exist in this world. It's not terribly difficult to listen to them. Why do you feign ignorance?

"Only" doubles? Compared to what reasonable baseline?

Business reporting ≠ journalism.

Think of it as marketing that targets both the customer and the employee base.

It would offer access to the mac software ecosystem, particularly the (imho) cohesive set of underlying frameworks. Just like linux is "just" a kernel but is in reality a center of floss development, actively organizing around bri

This depends on where you live.

That's a TOS, not something you need to worry about for personal use.

What is a "nasty" photo? One that looks like it's not staged to hell?

Given that it's a work of fiction, it's literally dystopian!

Off-hand I suspect your contact book is more valuable than virtually anything publicly available on you. It's also entirely unnecessary to building a lookup-by-email or lookup-by-phone. I'm going to go ahead and say it's a mu

This has got to be a joke.

I can't recommend Lisp In Small Pieces enough. I prefer it to SICP.

You don't refrain from going after criminals because they're incompetent.

Yea, after reading more I got a sense of the scale. Still, I think that's the proper comparison—human processes are the analogue to keeping a blockchain online and mining.

I'm a little peeved that a site named "teenage.engineering" is not an educational one. I realize this is not entirely rational, but I would have expected (and welcomed) a build-a-kit, not yet another generic consumer product.

Yea but a whole fraud department of humans emits a ton of carbon. There's no way the banking and finance industry doesn't compete emissions wise with bitcoin.

How do you figure? Seems very optimistic to assume that these companies are incapable of this type of failure themselves.
