Not even just a guarantee in writing, the only thing that actually holds these assholes is regulations with actual punishments.

These kinds of questions are such bullshit too just getting promises from these people are meaningless. Ticketmaster "promised" that buying LiveNation wouldn't lead to more price gouging, venues extorting artists, etc and all

Bigger vehicles love utilizing "physics right of way" to get what they want and it sounds like that's what happened here. Even pick-up truck drivers do stuff where they basically put you in situations where you give them what

> We just caved (again) entirely to the transit unions in the last contract negotiation. We have subway lines & trains wired up for 1 man operation but run them staffed with 2 due to union work rules. I don't think this is a goo

The third-party apps predate the first-party even. Reddit had been a website only for years then bought the most popular iOS third-party client as a starting point so like you said it's very much a rug-pull.

Yeah all the way back when Reddit sent out takedown threats on most 3rd party apps for their names (I use Relay which used to be called Reddit Relay, can't recall the Apollo app name before) and launched their own apps it was pretty cl

It's kind of disgusting seeing people even entertain the notion that this is right. It's corporations bullying people and controlling things they have no right controlling.

I swear it's been a clause in their phones since they were called Nexus instead of Pixel where you breach the warranty when you unlock the bootloader. I never bother anymore but when I used to swap the Android versions myself I recall

I hear skiers left/right or looker's left/right often. Usually looker's is said while on the lift or the base of the mountain.

The blog literally just embeds the video in its post with a paragraph of intro. Additionally it's the blog of the same Youtuber you have so much contempt for.

No experience in gaming but given the amount of creative control I'm given in other dev work it's not surprising when you're talking about projects at the scale of most video games.

It's funny Youtube Music was mentioned because Google Play Music was actually great for listening to your music and having a curated library of stuff you uploaded along with the music on the service. When they killed that in favor of

It seems to be a policy thing across the nation to have police not live in the communities they police. Part of it I'm sure is some amount of fear of retribution but I think it's really to avoid the officers from developing empath

Yeah it's like they've never walked around a college campus and noticed that every other building is named after some alumni that has made large donations.

I always assume the author or publication stands to gain from being right and is attempting to influence things for their preferred outcome.

This is a disgusting viewpoint to have.

I still hear the occasional joke from greybeards about JS and frontend being terrible so it seems like it's just taken to an extreme there.

Like Google can't acquire this or something similar and include it in its results if it's actually a threat.

It wasn't completely randomized though if I recall, people used to submit sites to it and would tag it in different categories and then when you signed up you would select your interests and then it would choose things from the possibl

The negative baggage isn't something universal though from looking just at the comments here alone.

That's not very surprising. I think what's surprising is the perception of RubyGems, PyPI, etc is much better than npm's when there are common problems. There's an element of suffering from success but some of the proble

I'm pretty convinced Ruby and Python's package ecosystem has most of the same problems of JavaScript's but it's just not talked about as much. This article definitely has a lot of similarities to npm's MFA implement

Fuck calling it "quiet quitting" that's just being weaponized to make workers look bad. This is "work to rule"[1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work-to-rule

by wldcordeiro 4y ago
Right? This whole framing of it as "quiet quitting" is intentional to make the workers look bad. This is "work to rule"[1] and it's interesting even this name is seen as a form of protest when it should be the norm.

The Youtube algorithm bothers me a lot because they have the subscribe system but as soon as you do subscribe to a channel that channel basically disappears off the recommendations/front page.

One thing that's missed in the renter vs homeowner thing is that the rules of election systems favors the homeowner too. Renters move more and will need to register to vote over again and the added inconvenience will stop plenty from e

My biggest pain point right now with Bluetooth and my phone is that it's *all* media going through the paired device. I want to be able to pin just my music app audio to go out a speaker and still be able to use my phone speaker for al

I really enjoy Jon Bois' work and what his influence on SB Nation/Secret Base turned into. Their content now is really great even if he himself has taken a backseat to the newer creators.

More frustrating still is often they remove the option to opt-out of their in-app browser so you have to do it on a link by link basis as you mentioned. Even more annoying on Android is it then breaks "smart" app links like openin
