Oh I'm sure they'll use whatever UX techniques they can to convince or dupe users to opt in. My point is that Apple is going to do the same. I'm not defending either of them, just saying it feels like a double standard.

Per the source article, the features themselves are opt-in (ie not automatically enabled). I believe Apple is rolling out Apple Intelligence pretty much the same way yet it did not set off a firestorm of criticism.

Well I'm not convincing you probably but I think you're downplaying the context. This wasn't a bar fight, this was the Oscars. He was in front of all his peers and being broadcast to 100M homes and makes his living off his re

On live TV at the Oscars? That's absolute psychopath behavior.

1Password is the way to go for service accounts shared by admins. Not sure if OP is talking about users though. In that case, should definitely pick an SSO solution for as many services as possible.

I think that's likely a function of miles driven. At least partially.

Any politician saying we should limit motor vehicle size would committing career suicide. That would be a slam dunk wedge issue for Republicans.

Good faith meaning they believed the analysis of likely disinformation was correct and not politically motivated.

That's a stretch. They could have decided twitter was non compliant and started treating them a little less gently but would they order content be removed or issue fines or some other direct punishment? Probably not.

They never ordered anyone to censor anything. They shared recommendations that as far as we know were based on good faith determinations. Twitter was never obligated to do anything.

I gather the reason for the step-up basis is to avoid taxing an asset that's already subject to estate tax, but that seems like an awkward solution. Especially since there have been attempts to reduce or eliminate the estate tax not to

I searched a phrase for a pizza place near me that has a slightly stupid name for a type of pizza and alltext found it. Very impressive.

I'm pretty convinced that AR and specifically headset AR is just a dead end. No amount of sensors or pixels are going to make it viable for anything besides some tiny niches. VR is fun and has some uses. Everything else just needs a ta

Yeah, there's nothing inherently wrong with algorithmic pricing. Issues would start to occur if the pricing was actively manipulated and RealPage was used by so many landlords in some geographic areas that competition broke down. That

I think phones really stopped differentiating a few years ago. A $200 Motorola is extremely capable and does 99% of what normal people need. I bought a Moto G Power for my kid who always forgets to charge it because the battery lasts 3 days

That's not really true and not really a thing. Unemployment in tech is even lower than the general economy. It just stopped being massively overheated.

This is the correct answer. If you're trying to validate a business idea and this kind of thing is not your core competency, just get an entry-level plan with a tool like this. I'd also highly recommend you sign up for a CRM tool

Even with modern marketing like tv ads, display ads, or even paper mailers the expected conversion rate is tiny. It's always a numbers game. If you have a sales script that captures 0.7% of people who hear it while your competition is

I can envision a gnarly Venn diagram of search, ads, AI, analytics, Chrome. You could easily make this 5 separate companies (ads and analytics were acquired), but you probably just need to split it somewhere in the middle.

I mean, it's 3 statements with like 40 lines of JSON options. Debatable what counts as a LOC, but it's still pretty impressive.

It's an interesting topic. I'm sure this is just excess server load and nothing nefarious but could the SEC mandate an SLA? Require disclosure of their DataDog dashboard?

That's a pretty bad take and you're setting yourself up for disappointment if you think a market crash will lower home prices. Home prices are high because of too little construction and we're now going to get even less.

This was my life before the pandemic. CEOs seem to have forgotten how hard they pushed for distributed teams and off shoring for the last 20 years. I'd be in the office on video calls with South America, Chicago, San Francisco, Tokyo.

This is going to crush their sales pipeline and lead to at least a few attempting a migration off. Crowdstrike is unlikely to go out of business, but this is not a good time to buy.

I worked at a job that had a cafeteria where you have to put money on a debit card, then pay with the card. It's a penny stealing operation for sure since a lot of food items are charged by weight so they are odd numbers. I worked at t
