The personal sacrifice cult was largely put forth by corporations and corporate media insisting on an individual's carbon footprint. That said, it's somewhat unfair that, say, 1 Australian can have the footprint of 7–8 Indian peop

It's a good total aside, my analogy was not great. I went on Sunday, and she announced what she was playing. Otherwise from the initial notes it's easy to spot what's coming. Of course you end up with an imperfect recording,

Touché. I wonder at which point we'll be convinced that we need ALL of our lives recorded ALL of the time (video, audio, location, etc.)

You wouldn't rather have only some of your location recorded? I don't understand the appeal of saving all data all the time. It's akin to going to a concert and recording the whole thing, versus recording a small bit that fee

This is, again, GP's criticism of purity for its own sake. I've had to interview people for whom academia didn't work, and they were simply ignorant in terms of real-world skills. Writing a Bash script shouldn't be an ho

It's ironic how many PMs want to use Atlassian products, when they're clearly some of the most obtuse options out there. If you care about product, wouldn't something like Linear be an obvious choice? It's snappy! (No af

The incentives were always misaligned, with having some code be free (open) and free (gratis), but the underlying system being value-extraction growth-obsessed capitalism. If processed food was sold for a profit based off farmers selling th

Pedantic, but the definition of an athlete is someone proficient in a physical activity. Quite some people barely use their bodies, unless we count moving in and out of a car.

The mid-range market is probably targeted by the SE. The Air is a continuation of the Mini's problems: too thin, abysmal battery life, not compelling enough vs. an SE or the flagship models. Someone at Apple needs to stop pushing the ’

I wonder how League of Legends (LoL) manages, given it didn't rely on kernel-level anti-cheat when I was playing. Granted, you'd have to report one or two players per week; but that was quite a rare thing and mostly it was obvious

If the potential for positivity is minimal compared to the potential for harm, it's not a socially neutral technology. I get downvoted on this opinion, but it's my hill. Technology might be neutral, but it's the application

We tend to dislike big UI changes. But… I picked up my sister's new iPhone running 26 and got a sudden “ach, Windows Vista” moment. Yuck.

There really isn't any need to conflate React with Next. React has its issues — notably more after exposing its internals in hooks —, but Next should be seen as something on its own. I don't mind picking up a contract for maintain

Eh, it explains their performance EU-wide: combine the worst of both worlds. I've mostly voted Green all my life but for the last 5 or so years I remain satisfied at their losses, as they're somehow unable to understand why people

It's home prices indeed AFAICT. It's fairly bloody-minded ti think house prices will go down with nearby renewables, it'd be a small blip if any at all. Give me wind turbines around and take away the cars and delivery motorcy

Depending on where you live, Amazon might be one of the more expensive options. I've bought disks from a smaller Dutch website for our home server, for about 3€ cheaper per TB than Amazon's best offer. There's much better pla

It's incredible what the hardware teams at Apple have been doing. I imagine they also feel let down by the software that's driving these beasts. It's as if they're 2 completely different companies.

It's baffling. If you move the dongle to another USB port things work again. But!, the dongle can never go back to that same port. So after 4 sleeps we run out of ports and have to hard shutdown with the power button.

I stand corrected if I was wrong. Following the news over the years I had the impression that Dart (or Flutter) and Angular had been axed — with the decision reversed.

“Is spyware that causes torture and death in oppressive regimes worse than freemium apps?” is almost a comical take on the situation. I agree that many tech out there is useless or detrimental to society, but spyware must rank very close to

I thought Google had already killed Dart once? Or was it Flutter? I'm not really touching any of their “open-source” projects; fool me once, you know. But my point stands. I haven't seen a single job posting in 2 years that isn&#x

Same here, iOS 18 already felt a bit sluggish compared to 17, but sadly Apple stopped signing 17 some days before I discovered you can downgrade. 26 is definitely not for older devices. Heck, 26 is probably not for any device, this article
