I've worked at a lot of startups, and I love that energy. But part of what I enjoy about it is that I can make a make a real difference in building something new and setting direction, and the sense that all of us are in this together.

I'm privileged to be in a position where I have a solid cushion in the bank, and I recognize not everyone is in the same place. But for me personally, there's no way I'd be willing to work there, even for 3x what I make now.

The controller is pretty different, and I don't think the original PSVR games were written with an abstraction for that like Steam games are.

If you were ethically inclined toward such things, I've read posts online of people using VPNs to sign up for Youtube Premium from Argentina to pay a reduced rate. I can't vouch for the effectiveness, but googling does show some p

Is that a fork of the same closed source code base? Or is it a new project designed to be backwards compatible?

Thanks for the insight, that's really helpful. Do you think you might be able to share some of the forums I could look for additional information? (Either here or through email if that's more comfortable) I've tried searching

(I am not the poster you were replying to) - I wanted to add that I have the 40" 5K2K version (U4021QW) and I'd recommend it very highly. I do the same input switching he mentioned, and it works very reliably. It also has support

That is unacceptable behavior, and I entirely understand you not wanting to condone it. For people who find themselves in that situation, one practical workaround I've found is using a service like Privacy.com which lets you generate d

"Everybody already knows about this, you have no reason to be upset" is a common industry refrain when people get caught doing something they know there is a public outcry against. Whether or not you know about a given thing is ir

This seems interesting - Is there a way to buy this? I looked on their site, and only saw forms to be connected to their sales department. At this price, how do you feel it competes with the Vive Pro 2 and other headsets in that price brack

Jabber was an open Federated protocol, before Matrix. I am absolutely in favor of open protocols, but they are not a guarantee against needing to change ecosystems in the future.

Speaking only for myself, no that would make no difference whatsoever. I don't want people in my house. It's my house, that's the point of it being my space. I understand that sometimes people are in an economic situation whe

I'm not sure why liquidating the assets is taken as given. I would be much more amenable with the idea of destroying them. Any trademarks are revoked, any copyrighted works are now PD, etc. Physical assets are destroyed and put in land

I can see your point, but all Apple is doing here is telling users that Facebook wants to track them, and letting them opt-in or opt-out. If someone is in favor of being tracked, they can allow it. Facebook's objection is to letting pe

I'm not fully versed on all the things that would be needed, but at the bare minimum it would seem like you would need a bunch of automated processes for just the building - Import src packages, making sure that you copy in changes&#x2

I really like the approach, but needing a license from Adobe/Harman really limits the use-cases. I know that's not something you can solve, just unfortunate :(

I totally admit and agree that the psychology of such things matters, but isn't that just the same thing with a different coat of paint? e.g. "Comcast announces that effective next June, prices will be raised by $30 for all custom

Not OP, but it is surprising the level of accuracy that you can get just by comparing daily websites that people tend to go to, time spent on them, and in what order.

I've done this a decent amount myself, but one thing I've been disappointed by is mod support. Since PCs aren't locked down platforms, you can mod games whether they added support originally or not - But on Consoles, only a r

I don't want to rehash that whole thing, but I totally agree with Gruber in that case. The "Standard Markdown" name really implied a degree of canonicity and authority over Markdown, even though it was neither created by or e
