We got an alert from Amazon that if we didn’t stop faking reviews we would be terminated. Given that we have never done so, it was quite a shock to us. I wonder which competitor of ours feels threatened.

How do you know even 1% of their users use that function? If Facebook adds that feature tomorrow do billions suddenly become criminals? You assume just because the feature exists the clientele are using it.

They said you will own nothing, not them. They also said "and you will be happy", which was an order.

This is brilliant, I too feel like there’s an opportunity there but don’t have any idea off the top of my head how to implement such a thing.

Imagine getting banned for fixing their insane load times lol

I stopped playing GTAV online a few years back because of the crazy load times, not only that but you have to go through 6+ minute load screens multiple times in many sessions. This oversight has cost them millions of dollars easy.

Personally, I find the crypto-skepticism on HN a strong indicator that I should buy more.

The short version is that a seemingly large number of people are willing to pay out of this world fees to trade on a decentralized, uncensorable currency exchange. This is consuming the entire chains resources at the moment. The good news i

Absolutely not. ETH2 is poorly named, it is an "in-place-upgrade" whose core design principles (PoS, Sharding) have been part of the ETH roadmap since 1.0.

The person trying to do what you say also owns Amazon, and he’s utterly failing at it. Maybe space service and taxi cabs are not directly comparible.

Absolutely phenomenal gains. I wonder if this is how the UE5 demo was achieved.

A planet with only mass transit is not a planet I want to live on. Many will fight you to the bitter end on this.

I took it a step further, I had been using a large (roughly 1L in size) sink-attaching filter (think of a standing filter with its on spigot that attaches to your sink with a bypass/selector knob). $75 on amazon so not bad. While that

This position makes all sorts of unfounded assumptions about the nature of your government, that it is operating in your best interest, that it hasn't been captured by outside forces/interests etc etc.
