I agree. "It's not what you said, it's how you said it.". Most stuff I downvote is because of the way it's expressed, not because of the opinion itself.

I like how you just ignored everything they said, to try and coerce them into saying "yes", presumably so you can extrapolate that out to some other point you're trying to make.

If it isn't in reference to what ceejayoz linked to... what tariffs are you talking about? A link would be great, but you can just name the products if that's easier, and I'll look up the data.

I believe this story is supposed to bring a more human/relatable element to the impacts of the tariffs and trade war, using a unique family-owned business that happens to make a violin widget. Focusing on cheaper Chinese competitors an

Seems like learning was done and fun was had, alongside some marketing content being produced. In turn, I got some learning done and some entertainment. I think those are all benefits.

Meta, but this might be one of the longest comments I have seen in reply to a couple sentences. Lots of condescension, emotions, and holier-than-thou in it, right before asking the person to not react emotionally. Fun stuff.

At least this is a better effort at explaining why you would believe it is AI than the other poster who just says it's AI because they used the word "likely". I still find it very annoying that in every thread about a blog po

Using "likely" is indicative of AI now...? Absurd. The only thing as annoying as people using AI and passing it off as their own writing is the people who claim everything written not exactly how they are used to is AI.

According to the GDPR enforcement tracker link helpfully provided by the sibling commenter, we'll be lucky to see a ~1% fine of the 2024 revenue of Oracle. That's assuming that the fine issued is in the top 5 GDPR fines ever issue

Nice, thanks for the link! The largest fine ever issued is about 2% of Oracle's 2024 revenue. If we average the top 5 fines ever issued (this breach surely wont result in the largest GDPR fine ever), it'd be about 1% of Oracle

Have their been any GDPR fines that amount to more than a rounding error of Oracle's revenue? Admittedly, I don't watch too closely, but from the ones I am aware of, I haven't seen any GDPR fines that made me finally think &q
