Are you arguing that productivity, however defined, isn't down at these companies?

Because you can't study an unprecedented situation for decades Because rules derived over the last decades or whatever don't necessarily apply to an unprecedented situation Because pretty much all the CEOs and employees say that p

This just seems wrong to me. Productivity at the FAANGs was low pre-covid and tanked further when they tried to grow rapidly during COVID. Thanos snapping a significant portion of your workforce is probably the best way to get some level o

But none of these things are what Google is accused of doing. Google is accused of recommending pro-ISIS videos to someone who ended up killing a bunch of people. Which is not really what 230 was meant to protect against. 230 is there to

Because third party front ends will show competitors shows next to Netflix shows and none of them want that. That said, we are sort of there. Google can tell you where a show is streaming and I think Apple TV displays shows from different

First car manufacturer. Waymo, Cruise, and probably others have had this for years.

It's been a long time since I read 1984 but I thought everyone was generally impoverished. Like not starving but no real luxuries.

Your etc is doing a lot of work here, but post COVID craziness aside I don't think building materials are more expensive than they were in 1990. As an example, lumber has been flat or slightly down since 1995: https://www.le

To add to this, you want you application to be stateless and immutable. This makes your life so much easier in so many different ways: (1) You can know exactly what code was running when debugging past issues (2) Scaling can be done dynami

ABC (the TV network) paid out a couple hundred million in a defamation suit for that scandal.

It's not really near anything. It's in the middle of the Indian Ocean ~1,000 miles from any other significant land mass.

I agree that Sorbet is a better solution but it's also a breaking change. It's a relatively small breaking change and, IMHO, would have been more than worth it but alas it was not my decision to make.

It comes down to project size. Small projects with a small team tend to be fine. Bigger ones tend to break down a bit and the application becomes ossified because there's no safety when changing things. You can power through it but

The problem, I think, is the restrictions that not having a compilation step places on what typing you can do without a big breaking change. Typescript didn't have this problem because everyone already used bundlers/minifiers&#x2

FSD does way more than glorified lane centering. It legitimately drives the car through city streets. It doesn't do it reliably enough that you can just set it and forget it but it's still a legit accomplishment.

It's fairly obvious when you look at the map: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ronald+Reagan+Washington+N... Left is upstream and away from DC. Right is towards restricted airspace.

The problem is that the war was over when Dani lands with three full dragons, the Dothraki, and the Unsullied but the series wasn't. The logical end there is a Lannister-que and it took a lot of ridiculousness to make it something els

AWS gouges the crap out of people with their egress fees, though. You can get 20TB of transfer for ~$5 a month from Hetzner plus a server to go with it.

But this isn't one of those "we developed fast and did dumb stuff". They put significant effort into doing something dumb.

Really the fundamentals of git are nodes (commits) and how they connect to each other. Everything else is abstractions on that. Wonder if anyone has made a git client that lets you manipulate it at that level. Tree looking graph that allo

Their cite includes the national crime victimization survey which surveys a 100-200 thousand people and asks if they've been a victim of a crime. Theoretically that's independent of anything else and should accurately reflect the

Unfortunately the article doesn't answer the important question of "where did they go?".

Definitely one of those obviously broken things that should be stopped. Whatever legitimate usage they theoretically have in practice the vast majority do not protect against a bona fide company risk.
