It is both tbh. Anyone can build a poor clone of an application. However there are many things that you don't realise is happening beneath the scene It is all the small things e.g. YouTube Mobile website works really…
Equivocating children bypassing social media age gates to rape is disingenuous. The point being made is that these age gates are often easily defeated and is impossible to enforce at scale. At the same time it allows…
Pretending that owning a car is like an addiction because you saw an overweight woman and her children and then made a bunch of supposition afterwards isn't something anyone should take seriously. I've seen fat people…
Drive an Old Defender nobody will mess with you in one of those.
How did it break ground exactly? I like MGS 1,2 and 3. I saw nothing particularly interesting about Death Stranding. I've seen friends playing it and still didn't really look that interesting.

I never bothered Death Stranding and everything after MGS-3 has been very meh IMO. He didn't really want to make MGS 4 & 5. MGS 3 itself while an excellent game overstays it welcome after you defeat "The End" IMO. The…
They make pensioners retake their driving tests here (UK) after a certain age and do basic health checks.
Drink driving has stiff penalties in the UK. It is also socially unacceptable to drink and drive. The UK also has increased requirements on drivers, and the number of road deaths is far lower per capita than it was in…
CSS is one of my favourite things to do and still is. However, most engineers don't really understand it because most engineers don't really bother learning anything, and as a result you typically end up with a mess. If…

Burnout isn't about the number of hours. Burnout occurs because you are actively doing something that you fundamentally don't believe is worth the time. I can work 80 hour weeks if it is a project that I am invested in…
Because the most vocal people are always a minority.
AI haters are basically a very small minority and almost all of them are online. It isn't a large number. There is plenty of skepticism (with any new technology) sure. People often change their attitude to technology…
