That's like saying, "why do people even hear their house when they could just purchase a second home in the tropics instead?" It's not always feasible to buy a new house to solve a problem.

Growing up, the older generation just didn't "get" new technology, often embarrassing themselves by not knowing how to use a computer. I always thought I would "get" technology. But with a lot of this new metaverse

Plenty of corporations trust GitHub itself with their code, why should trusting copilot be any different?

The M1 Air is the best laptop for the average casual laptop user (school, emails, photos, etc). The battery life alone makes it a huge upgrade over any Windows machine. I also love that it doesn't have any fans, side that's usuall

It's amazing how some people will risk their job, their clearance, and potentially their freedom, just to impress some random dudes online for a few minutes. I tell people this whenever I'm asked about something I'm not suppo

Something I've thought a lot about: in most fields of study, modern scholars revere the 'old masters' that came centuries before for their genius: think Newton, DaVinci, Socrates, Galileo. However, in medicine, most doctors w

I think it's more than that - if users are finding shows through the Apple TV search then Apple is able to promote their own shows and services in that search functionality. Netflix wants people to use their app so they can push their

From Apple's perspective, developers are either creating competing products or products that Apple will eventually compete with. Either way they would rather not help.

Just a reminder that if you carry cryptocurrency on a hardware wallet or a brainwallet (memorizing some phrase that can recover your private key), the feds can't sieze those funds no matter how much they want to.
