I'd be really skeptical that there exists companies who would love to be the portal for a smaller cut then Apple. At least longer term. I can see someone, just to get their platform off the ground, trying undercut for a little while. B

No not Big Toasta, but I am highly suspicious of Big Waffle Makah. How do you make a breakfast meal that also is sort of like a desert? This is highly questionable behavior.

Its not there to help incumbents. New companies come up all the time to make these kinds of products. Its a barrier to entry to keep Joe dipshit who learned how to solder together two wires last night thinking he can has an overnight get ri

There are some books that just straight up are not supported on kindles or only on Kindle fire editions. Looking it actually recently changed, but "Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces," you could buy in kindle format, but it woul

I always wondered if we would see hemp get seriously used here. Not a materials engineer, but the little bit I know about hemp, seems like it could be a good replacement.

I still follow same advise my dad told me before I left for Navy bootcamp. He was an Army vet. But it goes something like, 'when you wake up in the morning and realize you hate putting on that fucking uniform, its time to hang it up. O

woah woah now, someone has to put those young ladies through college and the manufacturing budget has to be spent.

This specific case doesn't since there already has been permissively licenses alternatives to GNU core utils for years.

It depends, like all things. I am fine with the GPL, but there are ways it hinders open source. A primary example, Linux can benefit from BSD and MIT licensed code, but it doesn't go the other way. FreeBSD can not benefit from GPL code

by tcmart14 3y ago
I may be wrong here, but my understanding is they don't use GNU utils, at least not any more. They use old FreeBSD utils, which is permissively licensed.

For me I think it is a little different. There are tons of beginner material and even quiet a few advanced materials, I find the middle (or intermediate) materials lacking. For example, with rendering. Tons of great content with indepth exp

I'm not seeing it either. The only engineers I met who are 'under employed' either left the field intentionally, decided to go backpack Europe for 3 years after they graduated (some fields it definitely seems like if your not

Ia that really ironic though? If anything, it should be something we value. Granted, this was much later than would have been liked, like decades later. But a politician going, "oh, wait, that policy I helped passed turned out to have

It could be because it would prompt a huge pain in the ass process or question of, does their discharge status change? Granted, they dont (at least not during my service or my dad's, to give context I served 2013-2018 and dad 1995-2003

I believe the Biden administrations has gotten the ball rolling in getting the DEA to start the process of investigating it for rescheduling. Along with what looks like a few congress people, Cortez and Gaetz? I could be wrong on that. Gran

My guess would be that by the president pardoning these crimes, it would potentially make it more acceptable for governors to do the same for state level crimes. However, it still doesn't solve the overarching issue of draconian drug l

This is essentially it. Boomers got all these nice things and then as they no longer needed it, decided to pull the ladder up behind them. Boomers got to enjoy great levels of union participation and then turned out later on in life when it

We kind of have that, but it isn't by floor since its a one-story building, but we are an American small tech company. The engineering department (department I am in) is separated by a long glass wall. In side of there, we are expected

In this case yes, but in this case we have to assume the research side has achieved it's goal (its proven a material exists with the desired properties), now it is a manufacturing problem. If the lab can't produce the material, th

Its sort of like how in a lot of universities when taking a computer architecture course, the focus is usually on MIPS or RISCV or LC-3 and not something like a modern x86_64 processor. Tons of books exists to teach computer architecture in

To me that is kind of the key strength and why Apple has such a good UI story. Its not necessarily that they perfected the UI. There are certainly parts I dislike. But, its consistent. I have to use Windows 11 at work. It is amazing how som

Perhaps because until recently, battery life has sucked? I used to plug in my laptops all the time. Now with the M1, it only gets plugged in to charge, then I don't plug it in until I charge it again. I have been enjoying sitting on my
