But how can you pay the ceo millions when 22,000 other people need to make a living wage?

Lobbyists aren't necessarily bad. They're _supposed_ to be there to educate those who make decisions. But they go far far beyond that and we need to regulate them massively.

I feel like they had to exempt those ones to avoid the lobbyists. I think this is a good first step. First, it applies to all new industries that pop up. Also, I think it will be good to collect evidence that right to repair benefits consum

I always took the cars to mechanic and got the okay in each case, but either the mechanics I took the cars to were not looking for the right stuff, or I was just unlucky with whatever came up. If I had a good mechanic in my family I’m sure

While it's good to know you don't need WSL to work on what I work on, I still don't think that's a good argument for why I would _need_ to use Windows at work. For this type of work, just let your workers use whatever ma

Absolutely. I will say though, if you have enough money coming in to afford a small payment, buying a ~3-5 year old car with a loan vs a much older car with cash could be a very good idea for a huge portion of people out there. I was told &

Pollution is pollution. Also, weirdly enough, the recent huge spikes in temperature we’ve seen worldwide has in part been due to regulations put in place to prevent some giant barges from burning the dirtiest fuel possible, preventing huge

While it's difficult, I fully agree with this idea. Most of my friends are slowly moving to one neighborhood and it's been fantastic. This neighborhood also happens to be one of the few walkable neighborhoods in my city, which hel

Whoever developed this website was probably told "We want it to look like Apple.com" and didn't veer one inch from that request. Not to say it looks bad, but it does feel unoriginal to me.

The only thing that could save face in this situation is the immediate removal of the CEO and any leadership that allowed this to happen. Short of that, Unity will always hold this badge of shame in the eyes of developers.

I think it depends on the manufacturer. I have a Honda reaching higher mileage and it's a CVT and I love it. Never had one problem with it. Also, I think this is one of those things where CVTs came out, there were a bunch of problems t

We are significantly more expensive than that. And much slower to build. That’s kinda that point of this post.

I have to agree on this. But also anyone who calls anyone else an "idiot" for how they code is doing it wrong™. We can learn from what eachother thrive in. For backend, it's usually data structures, databases, performance, et

I think their headline makes total sense. It's true after all, turns out putting most of the work on your server rather than your client is a great idea for performance. You seem to be taking personal offense to using React Server Comp

"Spectacular failure" is a bit hyperbolic to me. They are taking steps to move away from Qualcomm, and it seems their first real go at it resulted in a lackluster product. It's not like Apple actually shipped their phones wit

I think both ideas have their merits. I think we can all agree that progress isn’t necessarily linear. So maybe in 2100 we won’t quite get to what I’m talking about, but by 4000 I don’t think anyone can claim that we’ll be working 40 hours

While more iOS "appstores" will exist in the coming years, does that really mean those apps will be able to circumvent privacy-related requirements that Apple has set? For example let's take the camera. You have to give an ap
