Amazing how much Musk advocates for free speech for himself (he's super salty over the SEC wanting his tweets to be reviewed, due to his breaking the law previously) but will do anything he can to stifle free speech for others.

That's not what people are saying at all actually. What they're annoyed about is finding out their bill is jumping from $120 a year to $7,000 a year with only a weeks notice to do anything about it. Vimeo changed what they want to

If you sue google they'll close your entire google account, which in turn can cause a lot of issues for a lot of people. I personally refuse to use gmail in part because of this- if you have a problem with one google service you risk l

Google Fi (originally Project Fi) was amazing when it first came out, but at some point they switched to contracted support with no ability to resolve issues (it's not even the support people's fault, as they literally don't

AWS raised salaries, not Amazon. That said I don't expect that to result in a raise in prices, as AWS is pretty profitable.

This is the opposite of my experience, although it does depend on workload.

"Western Culture" is the dog whistle we're hearing a lot in the US.

I learned a long time ago to hit "Tech Specs" on the top right instead of sitting through the ridiculous marketing pages (especially since they have awful performance on Firefox for some reason).

They hit the fuel train that was supplying the convoy with a drone strike and released the footage. The convoy has been stalled for days now, both due to fighting and due to supply chain issues (such as having their supply train blow up).

Do you have a source on that? Not that I don't believe you, but when the war started I was fairly young so I didn't realize experts were disagreeing at the time and would like to learn more.

We have the best job market in decades right now. If a company tells me a range and gives me an offer in the 50% percentile or lower I'm going to ask why, and what it will take to increase it. If the answer is obviously crap then I&#x2

Yes, absolutely. Job postings are required in Colorado, and will soon be required by law in New York City and Washington State. Every listing that doesn't follow the law should be removed. I also think if companies are allowing remote

It took me two seconds one twitter to find a ton of onlyfans creators complaining about this. They aren't being banned from using the site- so they can still stream and sell stuff- but they are being blocked from cashing out their earn

The US has done a lot of horrible things, but this is an obvious case of made up pretexts. Russia knows we weren't letting Ukraine into NATO anytime soon (we would have already), and outside of that we've been playing pretty nicel

Yeah but the fact that he invaded an independent country makes all of his other claims baseless. NATO didn't expand to Ukraine, he invaded anyways, so there is no point in appeasing him.

by tedivm 5y ago
I think part of this is that the non-US NATO countries basically let the US run it. The only NATO countries which seem to meet the financial and military requirements of the organization are the ones on Russia's border. So the US pays

That's an ideal world, but we don't live in an ideal world. Politicians do things not just to get reelected, but also to build their own wealth and power. To say that they only care about being reelected is a gross and inaccurate

I don't think FOSS people would agree on that at all.

You're getting downvoted but this really is a great point. People tend to avoid GPL in commercial settings. What blocks other people from using GPL on the commercial side is the "share alike" aspects of it, but it's stil

That's actually a really good outcome, your company gets points for fixing their postings instead of just shutting down the offer.

I think it's making it hard for some companies to hire. I don't live in Colorado, but when people reach out to me for roles and they say anywhere but Colorado they get my blanket response- > Sorry, I have a rule against compani

Oh I'm sure we can trust the guy who runs the company that fired a bunch of people for publishing research about the harms of AI to also be the person to fund ethical AI research.

Energy storage has gotten a lot better in the last few years, just as solar and other things have. Most of the plants in the US are decades old. That said, I'm not saying it'll completely solve the problem- just increase efficienc

Smaller plants combined with energy storage seems like it would help here. When prices go negative store the extra energy until prices also go back up.

Obviously- it's much easier to start a company when you have a safety net to catch you. That does not mean that mean only rich people can start companies, but it does mean it's a lot easier for them.

When I published this the stats were only current to February 6th, but they were updated after I posted with data up to the 13th. So my numbers above are going to be slightly off, but you can confirm them by changing the timeframe to end on

This idea that there's a crime wave seems to be pushed here and on reddit by month old accounts with no real proof. The reality is that crime is down in most places. Lets look at San Francisco. I'm going to get my stats right from

They get most of their money from advertising deals with those major companies (such as by putting google in as the default search engine). Competing against them would likely result in those companies removing the advertising dollars and t

I am not the hacker- someone posted it online and I downloaded it. I heard about the whole thing on twitter.
