Most terms of service include automatic acceptance of future changes, so if you continue to use the service the terms apply to the past too. “23andMe may make changes to the Terms at any time. If we make a material change to the Terms, we w

2 years is still not very long for large enterprises, they'll be conservative on the uptake - 3-6 months after it gets released, so they only have maybe 12-18 months before they're planning the next upgrade. It's better than

Finding people who can run infra at Spotify scale isn’t easy. Even if they could find those people, it tough to leave aws (by design). They could’ve been more careful about avoiding lock-in by building more on something like kube but most s

Another confused product from UniFi. Is it targeting home users or businesses? It looks like businesses from their web page yet feels very much like a better fit for home. It only runs UniFi Network, so you have to buy more things, that al

11kish is usually ther upper limit of most half ton pickups. Probably a function of what the frame can handle. But Towing 11k on that thing is already going to tank your range to ~100 miles. I couldn’t imagine towing our camper with this t

The other day when the rainbow bridge accident happened I went to go see what was happening on X. I hoped to see more up to date info, instead it was ONLY right wing nuts with insane conspiracy theories tying it from everything to the war i

At least for depression half of people fail multiple drug trials and don’t find relief in conventional treatments ever. It’s similar for anxiety unless you’re getting into benzodiazepines which do work for basically everyone but horrible f

You’ll be cursing HA off and on for as long as you use it. The local control angle is the right one (Apple’s HomeKit is also local for its devices and its great, I wish they’d invest more in it). The breaking changes in HA are out of contr

I mean in an interview they’re claiming it’s real https://www.fastcompany.com/3068093/heres-the-story-behind-t... It looks very convincing to me if it is a fake.

100 years ago it was definitely on the radar the US government should support retirement. Social security started in 1935.

At most EA stations one of them still has chademo. EVgo also still has it.

EVgo works the same way. They have chademo and ccs cables and only one works at a time. Chademo is also dying and I think only Nissan continues to use it on HALF their ev line up (only the leaf which is an awesome car otherwise). Kia soul d

OpenTF is a good thing. Hashicorp basically stopped reviewing community terraform contributions a while back: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28425849 They have no skills in managing true open source projects. We’re be

There’s parallels but it’s not the same. Red Hat’s projects are still all fully open source. And it’s not clear it’s a mistake yet.(I work for red hat but this is my personal opinion).

Yea it’s still not fully accepting but nobody’s kicked out anymore. I know I’ll never get an apology. The US doesn’t apologize. I do see the occasional person bringing their SO to the Navy and Marine balls.

Well I sued and got paid, but it wasn’t easy. I’m sure it didn’t change their behavior. They know most won’t sue. The guy who did it is still there working, I looked him up on LinkedIn. Finding consumer lawyers willing to take FDCPA cases i

My experience with debt collectors is they don’t act rationally and once they’re able to find someone they harass you using any means necessary. The fear of being fired is a good motivator to get people to pay.

Sort of. I got into a rough spot after I got out of the military and I ended up defaulting on all my credit card debt. I got kicked out for being gay with no notice and had no savings. What little I had went to moving and finding a new job.

Hard to imagine Britain joining both the Euro and the Schengen zones. I just don’t see the British public not thinking they’re special and demanding exceptions and carve outs just for them.
