Likely not an issue. Convincing consumers to strap a brick to their face has proven to be a persistent challenge, which even Apple has not been able to overcome. However, there is also a nontrivial percentage of the population who medically

My armchair theory is that it’s partly a marketing problem. Covid was treated with more fear because it was “the coronavirus” at first. Everyone has had “the flu” before, but nobody had had the spooky “coronavirus” at that point (even if th

> It's really as open an ecosystem as it gets at this point However, they fumbled the introduction by trying the “maximum vendor lock” approach first. Now they need to convince everyone otherwise, even if technically it’s open now.

I’m convinced New Years Resolutions are at least partly successful, if for nothing else that the 6-8 weeks of holiday distractions (family, travel, gift shopping, holiday treats, etc) are finally over. January is a blank canvas where you ca

We live in an era where companies are trying to claw back data (open APIs) that were made public with altruistic intentions and is now being used in ways they don’t like (LLMs). Obviously not directly applicable here—no one is training an A

I wonder if you could do the opposite with success: spam the detection networks with a bunch of cheap noisy autonomous decoy subs that are indistinguishable from cheap noisy real subs. Of course, the key phrase that might make the differenc

What really grinds my gears about OAuth is when there’s 5 providers, plus an email signup, and I forgot which one I used last time. Then I end up creating a new account accidentally, sometimes with no way to retrieve the old one.

I understand that there’s issues of piracy (from the producer’s perspective), but I really wish every concert just had a concert DVD or something I could buy. That solves the FOMO of recording some unique performance.

They are de-facto banks. Laypeople cannot understand the difference, and these fintech services use that confusion to amplify their reputation. It is manipulative. We need a Nutrition Facts label for places you put your money.
