I guess I don’t mind using edge to install firefox or safari on os x. You got me.

Wtf I just install Firefox and literally don't even register that Edge exists. Have used 11 since the beta. People make this into some very big issue while ignoring that the only real monopoly in this space is Google.

Ok I make a really nice server and give it away for free. Some guy making 300k a year uses it to build something else and gets a promotion so now he makes 400k a year and his company is now making millions. They've exploited my freely

IMO a huge problem is that extremely permissive licenses have totally devalued software development as the software you release gives everyone the opportunity to infinitely exploit it. What did people think was going to happen? I find it es

Good for you but what does this have to do with the article?

I studied philosophy at a department with an analytic slant. So essentially with philosophers who have a hardon for math and science. Still, even there people were not talking nonsense like this. Pure math is really nice, but there are so m

You seem to think that this is some sort of battle between the wordcels and the shape rotators or whatever, it's not. Extremely smart people have been in these fields for thousands of years and they didn't think that math and phil

It is incredible how shit all the streaming services are at anything related to interacting with your friends.

How much of this can you realistically digest? How much of this infinite stream of music do you have a real connection to?

Do you maintain any popular open source projects?

That type of processing is super common in DJing, but the understanding of how it interacts with lossy files is not.

I don't think it's that much any more based on what I'm seeing when I log into Quake Champions. For me Q3 Arena and variations was the pinnacle shooter duel experience.

This is one of my favorite articles that I heard about here. Someone shared it many years ago. I've been in many organizations like the ones described and things play out the same way. Recommended.

It's not like the users know what they really want though. You talk to a bunch of Salesforce users and they'll tell you that what they want is Salesforce+. This may not be what you want to be building as your product.

Is anyone with significant contributions to the language behind this? Otherwise who cares? Another twitch/discord stunt to generate views and clout.
