I see the same type of comments when it comes to any post on EU tech. What I've found throughout my career is that: 1) Maybe we (EU citizens) are just way less interested in hustle culture compared to other regions. We can keep compl

These categories of data are already somewhat special under the GDPR. I think we've committed enough genocide that now they're enshrined into protected data types.

This would remove the incentive to generate content, no? Copyright duration could be much shorter, but I think artists, writers, etc. would prefer the continuing protection of their work. (And I'm pro-copyright reform.)

Hmm, I'm in a 60-apartments block and we don't have this problem at all. Heck, even my shitty Meross devices manage despite all the 2.4 and 2.4+5 GHz connections around. What I struggle with is reliable 4G, and even 5G is so shabb

I left Wordpress development in 2014 (I think?), and it's true that I always found it to be an abomination; but naturally so given it's a project with a long history. That said: PHP isn't Wordpress. Honestly, look at a modern

It supports Websockets perfectly. Maybe you're conflating the issue with Apache's default settings, Apache being often the choice to front PHP servers?

I couldn't open their X because it's a technological abomination, but their Bluesky doesn't paint the image of a blatantly left-wing and super partisan channel that willingly ignores reporting on the public sector. Amongst th

Hmm, I don't agree that journalists are overwhelmingly left-wing. I can see how that'd be true since they're highly educated and that correlates. But the sad reality is that most media channels in the US (maybe everywhere?) a

Scary stuff: they've just handed the EU a reason to go after ADP. Turns out no back door is needed, you just force their position into making ADP unavailable in the EU.

Calendars are a tough issue, I'm not sure what I'd recommend. My partner's on Outlook so many of the OSS options won't work for sharing our calendars. I can move her entirely to the family server, but even I'm confu

Okay, secure E2EE backups we've more or less perfected for a while. There's good F/LOSS solutions for that. And if you're willing to pay a bit, thinks like Backblaze come to mind. In other areas it's true that open-

Pure whataboutism, come on. Yes, other things deserve investigation, but so does this. And there's plenty of right-wing media — in fact I'd argue too much such that there's a lack of balance in US media.

At this point, the inequality is so far off the rails that I don't see any way to harmonise these 2 ways of existence — ‘normal’ people are completely alien to the ultra-rich. If wealth accumulation is your way of life, why bother with

What about PHP merits this statement? It's 2025, PHP has become modern, performant, and has good frameworks that are battle-tested and reliable. Yikes. (And this from a former PHP and now Node developer.)

I don't know what you're complaining about, this is obviously about making user interactions delightful. Of course most people will cherish the bundling opportunities of Apple products, and would be offended if similar books weren

Lobbying amounts have gone up almost everywhere. This issue almost always comes down to regulators allowing Capital to purchase influence, such that regulations end up not being pro-citizen. I don't know how we fix this.

In Europe these were largely publicly-owned, but the neoliberal tendency to privatise everything has slowly dismantled the public corporation. My home country's formerly public energy provider has a weird share structure: a Chinese com

Sorry to hear. I've never met a Mozilla person I didn't feel inspired by, especially those working on the TC of Ecma and anyone trying to steer the standards. You folk build good stuff, just have poor leadership.

I see some downvotes but you're correct. For example, in the App Store feature cards swipe left only bounces the card, you have to keep swiping to close. Swipe down closes it at once. It's not that far from the usual but has alway

Catalog differences aside, I think that's a nice market to analyse. Qobuz differentiates itself on audio quality, Apple on its integration with iOS, etc. I do think they ended up competing on price and product alone, except for little

Maybe in a distant future, but why are so obsessed with the anti-framework sentiment? We don't shy away from a framework when coding in Node, PHP, Java… Is there something about the web — with its eternal backwards compatibility, crazy

Exactly, and I wouldn't miss a chance to give React some crap; when I was learning Java or Swift, the compilation times seemed horrendous. Web developers have it very good with fast incremental compilation, hot reload, etc.

I struggle to see how these companies would be affected in the medium-term. The stock would dip for a few weeks? OAI has virtually no revenues when compared to their passive; good lord, every other of these companies has actual, profitable

I've posted this before, but rent control has been shown in some cities to be very effective. It's not a magic bullet, but can be combined effectively with supply-side solutions.

Free buses are basically a negative tax on the lower classes. Whether they're very cheap or free is a minor distinction, if you believe in publicly-subsidised mass transport.
