I noticed that on a 1994 copy of Microsoft Encarta it physically did not even mention HTTP in its article on "the internet".

The EU seems to do more "back end" technological developments than it does visible consumer brands. Less Apple or Google, more ASML or Nokia Networks.

Personally I am going to start a company where the "AI" is actually a bunch of people in a business complex somewhere writing, typing, or speed painting all the content in real time. We will be the first AI company whose final pro

Modern Edge isn't a ground-up browser, it's just a fork of Chromium with Microsoft bullshit instead of Google bullshit.

A union would not be necessary if they already had any sort of corporate democracy. If such a thing does not exist the workers there will find other means to make their voices heard.

That threat holds zero weight as anything that could be so flippantly and easily offshored to save money and avoid regulation likely already has been. What's left must instead be jobs that don't exactly translate well to offshorin

I noticed similar on Ecosia so this could be shanigans on Microsoft's end.

It really is just unfortunate how squishy LCDs are but it's not like laying sheets of digitizer glass across the same screen makes them particularly more durable. It's almost hard to imagine how many laptops break in that exact sa

I hope there is at least some centrality to the next "cool place". All the new projects are decentralized (as in the communities are isolated from each other, not in infrastructure) to the point of being like a giant ant farm, it

I'd imagine telehealth played a fairly large roll. White crispy video calls are not that demanding individually 10s to 100s of them at scale per location (and an exponential increase of calls in general) might be something more of a pr

Well 4chan sure as hell isn't full of Marxist college students quoting theory at each other nor is it milquetoast CNN-style liberals. It is predominantly right wing (in an edgy 7th grader sort of way) to the point of needing kill files

The Pentagon is full of think tanks and high level policy makers and paper pushers with command stripes all the way down to their pantlegs. They stuff they deal with is pretty much the military at its highest possible level of abstraction (

By that logic their brands developing their own cache would be inevitable if they followed the same path, even if it is an uphill battle.

Personally I never found a free tool that did that and would be weary of using any that did for fear of my work being stolen and resold. Also fuck Chegg. I will never give them a dime after they tried to take over every citation tool on the

Unless the train is overly long (an actual problem) passenger rail always gets priority.

Funny how they still have an image issue related to being driven by rich vegans or whatever else people think of them they see them. It made more sense in 2014 when seeing a Model S was as exotic as seeing a McLaren. Now I am fairly desensi

Maybe if it does a chargeback the Tesla will repo itself by driving back to the dealer due to the stolen bits and bytes lol

Anecdotally yes. It underlies the broader sense of hopelessness and pessimism a lot of people in this generation feel in terms of never being able to afford things like housing. Going from "why can't I afford to live anywhere?&q

It's just further proof that they take those stances as a pure emotionless calculation made as soon as they calculated doing so would not negatively impact them financially. At such a scale these companoes rarely speak genuine activism

Workers don't exactly decide to collectivize in situations where the status quo is comfortable and they already feel like their voices are heard. It's almost a sense of "if there isn't a workplace democracy we'll ma

Perhaps we should follow the German model where large stakes in public companies are actually mandatory to be owned by the employees so they have a more direct say in workplace democracy by default.

At the time it was to sneak credits past corporate approval (Atari felt that since video games weren't considered art crediting game developers was as ridiculous as crediting their office window curtai). Their hidden nature sometimes a

US IP law was written far before the scale of indie digital content or the mere concept of sampling was a blip in lawmakers' eyes. It was made for broadcasters and publishers to go after industrial scale bootlegging of books and movie
