You are too optimistic. It has been a very long time since MS has done anything coherent with Windows.

Same here. Although I am super nervous that they will either cash out by going public or selling to some investor. That will be the end of it.

Great. Now we have to search for settings in three levels of control panel instead of two.

I try to make my company to donate money to open source projects but it’s difficult. They would rather spend 100k on some BS enterprise thing that wraps open source software instead of spending 1k on giving directly to the devs. It’s a wei

Technically no, but you need to be able to afford paying for lawyers to fight them or spend an enormous amount of time and energy. For some reason health insurances and hospitals can get away with practices that no other business would get

And by the time Maui starts to mature and work, they will announce a new framework and the cycle starts again. I still don’t understand why they couldn’t keep working on WPF instead of cranking out a new framework every three years.

It's totally true. I travelled around East Germany in the 80s and it looked like a bigger and less functional version of a lot of corporations. Motivational posters everywhere, mission statements like "we believe (meaning you, the

Same for water. We are told to have shorter showers while farmers use most of the water for inefficient practices to grow unsuitable plants for the region.

There are a lot of nonprofit executives in the Washington DC area. Once you see their houses and cars you realize that "nonprofit" often only means that the profit doesn't go to shareholders but to leadership of the nonprofit

I am not even talking about "free markets" but just a functioning market where all participants have the necessary information and have to follow certain rules. It seems hospitals and insurances can get away with murder unless you

I don’t understand how hospitals and insurance are constantly getting away with this nonsense. Even if people are against socialized medicine and free markets, they should at least make sure that there actually is real market where all par

Good! Let's bring it all into the open. At a minimum it will show that these supposedly ethical people are basically just playthings paid for by billionaires. It's pretty crazy that low level government employees have way stricter

I definitely would give them term limits and a maximum age. Let's say 16 years and a president gets 2 nominations per term (more if a judge dies or gets sick). Watching Bader-Ginsburgh basically die on the bench should be a warning.

An interesting number would be the number of successful appeals after denial. If that number is high it would indicate that they are denying too often.

How are these guys allowed to stay in business? Hospitals and insurances make many "mistakes" in their favor and leave it up to the patient to navigate this kafkaeske bureaucracy. I understand making some honest mistakes but this

AI feels more like the .COM bubble. There was a lot of hype and nonsense but the underlying tech really changed the world. I feel the same about AI. Crypto was always a solution that looked for problems it could solve.

Are these sensors really that expensive? It seems incredibly dumb to not use sensors that give you more data than pure vision provides.

I work in medical devices and it's extremely hard as a dev to figure out what's because of some regulation and what's just for profit.

How do you know they are truly happy? I am sure they wouldn't mind proper food, housing and medical care.

Being poor is very stressful. I would argue that well-off people have way more freedom to make choices to be happy.
