Everything isn’t for everyone, that’s true. I want the world to have good products that are for lots of people. Having lame things that are rent-seeking with no functional benefit is not good. Saying “it’s only for idiots, not for everyone”

Is that the only iPhone made? Are there iPhones that cost more than the MBA? Did I comment that it’s cheaper than all iPhones?

I was suspicious of this, and they should really include more. But I have 30 tabs open on my 2017 intel version and this m1 is ever better.

This is a great deal. I use a 2017 intel MacBook Air as a daily driver for browsing and light coding (takes about 15 minutes to generate a stable diffusion image). It only has 8GB of ram, but is still chugging along. I can’t believe these a

My point is in the means of charging. I’d rather pay once and be done, than pay forever. I think whenever possible, a one time fee is easier on users.

I had an in office mandate about two years ago. I ignored it, I’m still employed in the same org. It was quite odd. My boss told me to come into the office. I explained how I didn’t want to do that because of personal and professional reaso

Why is this a subscription? Are there ongoing costs? It seems like you just have generation software that would run for free on GitHub or whatever. It seems like a better fit to have a one time purchase. And charge for upgrades or something

Of course I don’t work for free. But I’m curious, not because they pay me. If they paid me more or less, I’d still be curious.

In my area, everyone goes about 10mph above the limit. Police don’t ticket. Will this system limit exactly at the speed limit? Or will it have some buffer threshold? This seems like pretty bad tech that I don’t want. And the way it’s writte

I used yahoo pipes for this back in the day. I wanted to combine multiple feeds into a single date sort. So it gave me all the issues on like 20 repos from oldest to newest. This was much faster than clicking on 20 different feeds to see wh

there’s always exceptions, but most people are capable of getting more, good sleep. Not giving out generally useful advice just because an extremely small minority can’t use it is just silly. And giving it out is certainly useful to most pe

I think the argument is against the Sacklers personally and their actions, not based on their ownership stake of the LLC. So this wouldn’t involve piercing the veil. Only if suitors were going against Sackler assets to pay off Purdue corpor

The difference is that they used to not get that info. When I started filing taxes way back in the olden days, I had to mail a copy of my W2 to the IRS. I could alter it, not include it, whatever. So audits would verify all that. Now w2s ar

I disagree. Using vaults isn’t that bad. And I’d also like developers to never actually know the secrets. It’s a learning curve, but I think it’s best to just bite the bullet and use a vault rather than trusting developers to know and manag

Yes, that’s what I’m asking. Dropping things shouldn’t be illegal. Negligence that causes harm should be. Someone lowering a hat down on a string seems perfectly fine. Throwing a chair out a window seems bad. I think the details would affec

Why would this be illegal? Like there would be a law against lowering hats on a string? I think it may be more funny to have a government create such a law. Everyone doing this seems wonderful.

Although I think the idea of nonconsensual hat drops is so fun and fantastic. I wish I could register myself as being up for any sort of serendipity like this. While I like the idea of a hat randomly dropping onto my head, some people may n

Google maps has had that for years, right? I don’t think this threatens AllTrails. I’ve used AllTrails for 10+ years and they’ve degraded by trying to force into paid subscriptions for basic functions. So I use them less and less (I just wa
