Our entire profession is “how can we make thing difficult enough to not be used incorrectly” That applies from user experience: “how do I get user to click button”, to security “how do I lock things down enough to prevent most attacks I can

I grew up in a rural area and the same phenomenon happens against cities. The idea that a city is comprised of human beings, just living closer together, really doesn’t compute for some people for some reason. I think everyone would be bett

Can you specifically name a rental car company that actually performs cosmetic repairs? I’d be curious on who I should consider since the major ones clearly do not, across my experience of dozens of rentals across the US and EU.

A cooperative will not solve the problem of a company eventually making a decision that some group of users will not like. There exists exactly 0 business structures that can solve the problem of 100.00% of a userbase being completely satis

Why not? We don’t know his motivations for political donations. At the very least it might be worth questioning what he found appealing about each candidate’s view of NASA and leadership. But an outright disqualification over this? Should w

You’re making the erroneous assumption that the productivity gains would meaningfully generate revenue for the business to offset additional costs. Plus development work is quite bursty — a productivity gain for developers does not necessar

This is a bizarrely pedantic critique of the headline. “Action happened. A state used network of cameras outside of that state’s borders.” seems like a reasonable template to describe what happened.

Regarding the last point, that doesn’t mean the jobs are replaced by AI though. A lot of companies aren’t necessarily replacing jobs with AI. They’re opening development offices in Europe, India, and South America.

It’s especially frustrating when DoorDash will happily use notifications for both order status/issues and spam various deal/promotion notifications. There’s simply no way to turn them completely off so you only get order status

Your initial take is bizarrely politically charged for something that transcends the left-right divide. Many non-“left” barriers have been raised too and ignoring that only contributes to the mess we’re in. For example: zoning and planning.

I’m confused by what point you’re trying to make because it isn’t relevant to the article. It is possible to address illegal immigration in a manner that doesn’t deter those visiting who will very likely return. Unfortunately whether it is

Since when is visiting a conference illegally immigrating? Typically folks who attend conferences fly over, stay the week, maybe even stay for another week as a vacation, then head back. If anything, this is in the territory of acquiring a

10 years is an eternity in tech-related management. Genuinely, are the folks who advocated and pushed for the Amazon tie-in even still working for Canonical?

The last two publicly traded companies I’ve worked for had increased revenue YoY for several quarters but the stock price was smacked because the gains weren’t enough. I looked around and this doesn’t seem to be an uncommon trend either. 15

There is also the other extreme of deliberately ignoring indicators that something is amiss. Often people in pseudo-intellectual circles conflate aligning with that extreme with intelligence when it’s equally as foolish.

First-party LSPs are great and all but some form of text editor is also at least marginally useful for writing code.

The globally unique names of S3 could be problematic with just the metadata of name. You could figure out how a company names their S3 buckets. It's subtle, but you could create a bunch of typo'd variants of the buckets and sit ar

These aren’t remotely on the same level. A bunch of internet commenters, regardless of how informed, generally have no sway in policy. It’s text on a page that can be easily —- and in almost all cases -- be safely ignored. However, a govern

I’ll give credit to Apple for formally writing a policy to this extent, but it’s disappointing. There’s always the risk of putting in a lot of time for an app that is genuinely unique but Apple may not think so. I’d much rather Apple let in

It's still a step forward at least for everyone who doesn't use a product from Epic or Roblox. There is simply no 100.00% perfect solution here that'll make 100.00% people happy.

To me, this calls into question to what degree Amazon will willfully comply with government requests that come in via phone call and not a warrant. From the Amazon shopping side, you can build quite a profile on someone based on their past

I’m disputing your claim that I am invoking a logical fallacy here. Revoking access to life-critical medical care that is specific to one’s sex is indisputably making the people of a given sex less safe. Threatening to persecute people who

If the states banning porn weren’t generally the same states restricting medical care for women, I’d say you have a point, but that’s simply not the case. “Protecting women” is the sales pitch, not the objective.

Not sure if that’s allowed, but that sure feels like a throwback to AOL keywords if it was — just at the DNS level.

It isn’t really cheap or easy to build a PC or smartphone business with name recognition… Nor is it cheap or easy to build a company that would likely be able to appeal tariff exemptions…

There is not a binary choice between America or a totalitarian regime. As an American, I recognize there are systems that can make us less free and I want to call them out in hopes that we will eventually address these issues so we have a m
