You don't want to understand. Apple users are happy that they forced you. They like the AppleID experience and nobody would care to implement it if they didn't force developers. I know it's frustrating for you, but this is th

The US has too many internal problem to be the world savior. Every time the US looks outside its border, it's for its sole selfish interests. Human rights enforcement around the world is (unfortunately) not something we can reasonaly e

Do you mind sharing your daily fasting routine. I only tried intermittently and always wanted to give it a more serious try and I have to start somewhere.

I am one of those subscribers and while I feel the same many times, I can't find any better source of general information than the NYTimes. Any suggestion? Where do you find unbiased information nowadays?

I mean, dark patterns are all the rage nowadays in "good" marketing teams. We don't know how this affect their KPI as it is most likely different for every mailing list, depending on customer base and other factors. Using KPI

Friend, you are obviously emotional about this and I understand. But: - "Israel became a state by UN mandate" : I believe that mandate was an invasion. I believe I was clear. That's my opinion. I am happy to discuss it and ch

You have to go very far back in time to consider them natives but I never said they weren't.

Agreed. Slightly different topic in my opinion but here is how I see it. You can be a brutal savage and you conquer land and just claim it yours. All good. At some point you evolve into a modern civilization and start following the rules of

Israel is a state. Not some refugees accepted in another state. The fact that the State of Israel was forced to unwilling Arabs is what causing all the distress and what I call an "invasion". Effectively some land that was part of

I think people focus on Israel b/c it is the result of an invasion and expulsion of natives. Just like the US and all America.... People tend to think that internal matters of a country should not be addressed too much (like many of th

A lot of the comments are focused on the headset subsidizing but it seems most people overlook the drawback of this: it kills competition. Now you are either a FAANG company capable of monetizing your users to the extent FB can, or you can&

There is still no competitor for the standalone headset (Quest) which seems to be a more likely candidate for mass adoption. I own all of the (Oculus, HTC, Valve, several models for each) and I can tell you that convenience seems like the k

They can take pictures of my backyard from satellites, planes and distrubute and sell them them to anyone like it's theirs. And i can't opt out. I am a little worried when politicians will start making laws to control them. The re

Honestly this happens to all cars and it's hardly evidence people target Tesla's more than any other brand. Beware of getting your information from youtube.

It seems like a single bit available to all apps but that no one is really using now. I wonder if a easy software mitigation could be just polluting it intentionally.

Before we had PC and phones, now we only have phones in a different case. It looks quite the opposite to me.... :(

Idk, I am no expert but I tend to believe that a design that is shipped to millions of customers and only a handful report problems is probably designed better than what the average youtuber or forum commenter can assess. Apple is known to

Inverstors are very short sighted. I am advocating for a 100 years plan. You can't expect a bunch of greedy boys to plan for returns after they are dead....

I know and I agree. It's hard. But don't tempt me on banning ads! :P If you look from the outside, as a society we are using a lot of our best brains for very frivolous things. I wish for a more efficient way of using our minds!

This is the key people often overlook. If we stop using our AI geniuses to develop tracking algorithms and start building automation, we can have nextgen factories in the West. The environmental factor is yet to be solved though. For the m

Lower classes in Italy are not as much penalized as in the US. Eviction takes YEARS and it's just impossible in some situations (kids in the house), healthcare is free for all, personal debt is not as aggressive as here, unpaid debt is

As an Italian living in US for 10 years now, I definitely agree. Growth means nothing to 99.9% of the population. But that very same people have not realized it yet, and all push for the needs of 0.01%.

You assume people are investing that money. What I see is people having a lifestyle that is only possible with lended money. Those are expenses and not investments and put you in a position where a minor change in your expected income growt

Yes, I agree with you. Specifically is the idea of considering the car a monthly cost instead of a capital investment is all in favour of financial and car companies. You will get a new model if your monthly cost does not change. In my expe
