Honestly, even if your brother is right, who cares? I find it quite enjoyable to watch other folks play sports. So I'm going to continue to watch live sports. Which sports I watch may change over time, as companies like…

No. "They" cheered when it was used to deplatform hate speech. Deplatforming people organizing a peaceful protest is very different. If you cannot understand how that is different, then I worry about your critical…

And businesses that are offered the option of paying "protection money" can simply go out of business, right? Acting like YouTube is a service that is not functionally required to use in the modern world is a…
This is like saying "You can just sail to Europe for your week of meetings." While it may be pedantically true, it's absolutely false from a functional standpoint for most people. YouTube holds an absolutely dominant…
Edit to my comment, I meant "Despite them being common," not "Despite them being complex."
Despite them being complex, high-bypass turbofan engines ARE exotic technology. There are vanishingly few countries/companies that have the expertise necessary to produce the single crystal fan blades used in the…
Because in OP's hypothetical, it is the equivalent of a gangster saying "I can shoot you in the face or punch you in the face, which do you prefer?" They present a false choice where Google is saying "We can do this the…
There is no reason we have to make the false choice you present. That is simply Google holding a gun to our heads to encourage us to choose something that is in Google's best interests rather than our own. The choice…
And we even have an explicit example of this in the 21st Amendment repealing the 18th Amendment.
The father of a girl I dated in college (circa 2000s) built an entire student tracking system using FileMaker to use at the High School he was the Principal of. We didn't date for long, but I'd be curious to know how…
I saw rusted out cars and trucks all over the place when I visited northern Minnesota and the UP of Michigan last year. Even late-model cars that couldn't have been more than 5-10 years old had rusted out rocker panels.
Please add the ability to sit in a window seat. It'd be awesome to also be able to pick a seat. Also, the login UI is annoying, it'd be nice if it was hidden by default. Another thing that might be fun to add is to see…
GitHub Copilot in VS Code has a similar feature to "Fork" a conversation at any point in its history.
You can't trade in for a used EV that likely wouldn't cost you anything and would save you money?
For me, it was reverse engineered. I am not an expert or even conversant in decompiling Android APKs. It took the decompiled Java (app was apparently written in Kotlin) and extracted all the necessary information. Call…
Orbital? Maybe not. Sub-orbital and ballistic? Absolutely.
The moment he talked about "remote pilots managing many planes," I closed the tab. Remote pilots sound great until something goes wrong, and things inevitably go wrong, not often, but they go wrong. I will never fly on…

There is a definite mental aspect for most WFH folks to having a space that is dedicated to work. I'm not unique in saying this, but the way I put it is "If you work from anywhere in your house, then you're always at…
Had a laptop purchased in December 2024 with 16 GB of RAM. Running a single VS Code instance and Edge with maybe 10 tabs consumed almost 100% of the RAM. Doing any actual development work required me to upgrade to 64…
The US has a 240V system for residential power, not a 120V system. Most homes in the US have 200 amp service. That's 48 kW of power available to the house, though code states that you can only pull 80% of that…
While the employees might be happy at Publix, they are in, in my experience, poorly trained. Also, the rest of the shopping experience is utter crap compared to H-E-B. Publix of 2026 is a far cry from Publix of ~2000.…
And I personally think that billionaires extracting untold wealth from those of us doing the actual work is a far greater societal problem than some normal folks who are lazy but are making 0.0001% of what the…
