   Because it isn’t about the CSAM scanning. Apple keeps reframing the argument back to that. most people expect that google and Microsoft to scan files on their servers for CSAM, people object to Apple turning your phone against its owner, a

   I don’t know what rock you are living under but everyone uses Zoom. Even Cisco sales reps use it for sales meetings and they own WebEx.

   So this is different than all the other Zoom is insecure things. This is related to Zoom sending data to a “hostile” state (the US) which cannot guarantee GDPR compliance and there is no waiver to allow transmission of protected data to Th

   No, they 100% have services that buy data from SmartTV manufacturers like Vizio and sells this data to advertisers to help track attribution and campaign effectiveness. A big one is iSpot.tv, the TV will use a fingerprint of your commercial

   This isn’t a town, it’s an off campus dorm. Or at most a big apartment complex. A lot of ASU students and recent grads live in that part of town. I lived right down the street 7 years ago, it was a very party atmosphere. They also had a

   What is your deal. You are out here arguing in bad faith all over this thread. What is your motivation?

    I guess you aren't familiar with the arguments people make against seatbelts. Arguments like "They kill more than they save" "If my car catches fire I want to be throw out of that car not trapped in it"

    I’m in my late 30s and have never understood the Abba obsession. I’ve heard some of their music and it doesn’t really do it for me. And the weird way everyone acts about Abba, like you see in this thread, just reinforces that for me.

    This all sounds extremely cool. What is the base espresso machine you are building this on top of? Do you have a blog where you document your process?

    I just can’t imagine how this made it past IRB approval. It doesn’t really prove anything and it seems unnecessarily cruel.

    What about being Indian makes someone 1/3 as good?

    Your last line is the part most people overlook. Offshoring and outsourcing have typically come with quality trade offs, not because Indians are somehow inferior engineers, but because companies have used in person offices to paper over a l

    I mentioned in passing to a nurse at my gym that I get calf cramps from running. She told me to get a supplement from Amazon called Calm. It eliminated the cramps, and after an especially rough squat workout I used to get cramps, it also t

    I prefer old Reddit because it isn’t mobile optimized. Most mobile optimized experiences are ugly, waste space, neutered experiences. My phone does a great job of rendering a desktop page. We don’t have shitty toy browsers anymore on mobi

    That isn’t the premise at all. It makes the market stronger through competition. Typically it makes the company itself weaker since it no longer can leverage power in one market to corner another.
