Exaggerating about timelines of products being ready. You are accusing him of lying.

I see. You took it upon yourself to decide who is a liar and who isn't.

And yet, the FBI person being questioned acts about as suspiciously as you can possibly act. Senator: Who is this person FBI: Not allowed to tell you Senator: Does this person work for you? FBI: Not allowed to tell you Senator: Did he come

That is the definition of the straw man fallacy. It was also on C-SPAN, if it helps you.

The source bothers you? Not the video? That is the very definition of straw man fallacy.

Does FBI catch actual criminals anymore? It seems that every success of theirs consists of finding a weak minded individual, talking him into doing something illegal, maybe even supplying him with weapons or some other incriminating eviden

They have a monopoly on political discourse. Why isn’t there an alternative? Network effect.

I was referring to Twitter.

That's a good goal for sure. The problem is that a private company gets to decide what is fact and what isn't. To me that is a 100 times worse than the problem they are trying to prevent.

I bet if you remove the bots and boot the inactive account, Twitter might come close to that.

That company is a de-facto monopoly on political discourse in the world. It should be treated as such.

What about grocery stores? What if they declare that they won't sell you anything because your viewpoint is different from theirs? Surely groceries are not common carriers?

But if the company is the de-facto monopoly in the political discourse, like Twitter is, then it should be treated as a common carrier/utility/etc...

Actually this model does exist and is pretty successful. Facebook Groups. The admins of these groups are not employees and have the power to limit whatever, whenever.

Wow. That is pretty insane. I hope there is a tooling to surface a warning when it detects this. But lots of domain specific languages have idiosyncrasies. The Apex language used to program Salesforce is a half-implemented clone of Java

Neither Find My Phone or Life 360 doesn't tell you when someone is in the bathroom vs upstairs. It just gives you information like "at school" or "at a friend's house". Not sure what you are arguing here.

Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should. Great job!

I host them on my Raspberry Pi 4 at home. I combine it with noip.com to get around the dynamic IP problem. Obviously that's not for mission critical apps.

I am reading their website and I am a bit confused. It says, it's firmware. If I use Mainsail + Klipper, do I need to flash my 3D Printer's firmware to make it work?
